 system, is compatible with our da Vinci X and Xi surgical systems, and can also function as a standalone electrosurgical generator.

Vessel Sealer Extend is a single-use, fully wristed, advanced bipolar instrument that is compatible with our da Vinci 5, da Vinci X, and da Vinci Xi surgical systems. It is intended for grasping and blunt dissection of tissue, bipolar coagulation, and mechanical transection of vessels up to 7 mm in diameter and tissue bundles that fit in the jaws of the instrument. This instrument enables surgeons to control vessel sealing, while providing the benefits of robotic-assisted surgery, and is designed to enhance surgical efficiency and autonomy in a variety of general and gynecologic surgical procedures.

SynchroSeal enables a surgeon to perform rapid, one-step sealing and transection with a single pedal press. SynchroSeal uses advanced bipolar energy from its raised cut electrode to transect tissue and then cool down quickly.
