Surgical Instruments Development History

First of all, let’s learn about the development history of surgical instruments.

As early as the early twentieth century, foreign experts have started to develop the stapler, but due to the bulky instruments, time-consuming loading and unloading, large volume can not be used in clinical. With the continuous exploration and improvement of experts, the stapler is getting closer to clinical application.

The surgical stapler (Auto Suture) that was really widely used in the clinic was invented by the American Surgical Corporation (USSC) in the 1960s. In 1967, the Liner stapler TA (Thoracic-AbdominaI) was first introduced. The Linear cutter GIA (Gastro-lntestin Anastomosis) was first introduced in 1968, and the EEA circular stapler (End-End Anastomosis) was first introduced in 1978, creating a milestone in the history of modern surgery. In the late 1970s, China's Jiangsu, Shanghai, Beijing, and Hangzhou have begun to design and manufacture gastrointestinal staplers. To the early 1980s, USSC (United States Surgical Corporation) of the United States introduced a new generation of the disposable surgical plastic stapler, which has been widely used in clinical practice. Compared with the previous equipment, the surgical stapler price has been reduced a lot and has been widely used. As the surgical stapler manufacturers, we have surgical staples for sale, if you want to know the types of surgical staplers, please contact us.

For example, when using it, pay attention to the correct placement of the tissue; the operation should be stable; after the firing, check the hemostasis of the incision and the nailing status.

Surgical staplers have many advantages and are now recognized by surgeons. Due to its advent , the original surgical field is narrow, deep, and difficult to manually suture and anastomosis. It also shortens the operation time and reduces surgical complications.

All in all, the correct and reasonable use of the stapler is the key to the success of the operation and the prevention of complications. In order to improve the application level of the stapler, the surgeon must master the correct use method and better serve the patient.
