DEVICE: DR. BEHR'S LAP CHOLE (30607915134304)

A sterile, rigid, laparoscopic device, covered with a sheath of electrical insulation, designed to perform through a compatible laparoscopic instrument (e.g., an access port) and to be connected to an electrosurgical diathermy generator when required to provide electrical current, to facilitate blunt dissection (e.g., hernia repair, cholecystectomy, colectomy) between tissue planes accessible via the abdominal cavity. It is a monopolar device typically constructed as a long insulated metal instrument whose distal end is equipped with a stainless steel scissors-like tip of various configurations operated through scissors-like ring handles at the proximal end. This is a single-use device.

A slender, sharply-pointed metal tube designed to introduce or remove gas from the peritoneal cavity as a therapeutic or surgical/radiological procedural method. It is often inserted into the peritoneal cavity for the purpose of insufflation [e.g., with carbon dioxide (CO2)] to establish pneumoperitoneum prior to abdominal endoscopy. It is equipped with a spring-loaded, round-tipped obturator that extends from the tube when the device does not encounter resistance (i.e., when the cavity has been reached) to prevent damage from the sharp point. This is a single-use device.

A sterile electrosurgical device which consists of a handpiece with mechanical and/or electrical controls, and a monopolar electrode, intended to deliver electrosurgical current from a system generator directly to tissues for cutting/coagulation/ablation during endoscopic (including laparoscopic, arthroscopic) surgery. It includes a long thin electrode connected to the handpiece and may include a lumen for suction/irrigation; it requires a patient contact return electrode to complete the circuit. It is available in a variety of forms (e.g., forceps or snare with ring handles, rigid probe with controls) and may be designed to also mechanically cut tissues. This is a single-use device.

A single-lumen surgical device intended to be percutaneously inserted through the abdominal wall to create an access port for a laparoscope/laparoscopic instrument during laparoscopy. The cannula is provided with a shut-off valve for gas/fluid supply, and other sealing devices (e.g., dedicated seals/rings, caps, valves), to prevent insufflation gas leakage whilst allowing entry of instruments; it may additionally be intended for thoracoscopy whereby the valve may not be required. It may include a sharp or blunt trocar blade to assist introduction and/or puncture the abdominal wall; if the trocar is included it may be referred to as a trocar or trocar assembly. This is a single-use device.

An impervious, flexible, sterile container intended to be used during minimally-invasive, typically keyhole, surgical techniques (e.g., laparoscopic) to extract dissected patient body tissue. The device is inserted into the body through a large bore cannula port, and the tissue to be extracted is placed in the bag with trans-cannula instruments and evacuated through the cannula. The device typically includes an x-ray detectable thread. This device may be used for surgical interventions such as an appendectomy, colonectomy, lymphadenectomy, or gallbladder removal. This is a single-use device.

A metallic, non-bioabsorbable clasp designed to be implanted around a blood vessel, lymphatic vessel, other tubular anatomy or a tissue bundle, for permanent occlusion. It may be used for ligation in open and endoscopic (e.g., laparoscopic) surgeries; a dedicated, disposable clip applier may be included.
