Da Vinci Stapling.  The SureForm and EndoWrist staplers are wristed, stapling instruments intended for resection, transection, and creation of anastomoses. These instruments enable surgeons to precisely position and fire the stapler. We have various staplers that can be used with our da Vinci 5, da Vinci X, and da Vinci Xi surgical systems: the SureForm 30, 45, and 60 staplers, where the numeric designation indicates the length of the staple line. The SureForm 30, 45, and 60 staplers are single-use, fully wristed, stapling instruments intended to be used in general, thoracic, gynecologic, urologic, and pediatric surgical procedures. The SureForm 30 stapler may deliver particular utility in thoracic procedures. The SureForm 45 stapler may receive particular use in thoracic and colorectal procedures where maneuverability and visualization are limited. The SureForm 60 stapler is intended to deliver particular value in bariatric procedures. Outside of the U.S. (“OUS”), we also offer the EndoWrist 30 and 45 staplers that can be used with our da Vinci X and da Vinci Xi surgical systems. The EndoWrist 30 stapler is intended to deliver particular utility with fine tissue interaction in lobectomy and other thoracic procedures. The EndoWrist 45 stapler is used in general, gynecologic, thoracic, and urologic surgical procedures. We also have various clearances for five stapler reloads: gray (2.0 mm), white (2.5 mm), blue (3.5 mm), green (4.3 mm), and black (4.6 mm). Not all reloads are available for use on all staplers. Not all staplers or reloads are available in all countries.
