Medtronic Endoscopic Gia Stapler

The Medtronic Endoscopic GIA Stapler is a single-use, articulating linear stapler designed for precision tissue transection and anastomosis in minimally invasive procedures. Featuring ergonomic grasping, Tri-Staple technology, and multiple reload compatibility, it delivers consistent performance and optimal hemostasis in laparoscopic surgery.

Overview

The Endo GIA Ultra Universal handle allows one-handed articulation and grasping, compatible with multiple reload types (universal and Tri-Staple). It supports up to 25 firings per procedure and works with 12 mm, 60 mm, and XL configurations, offering flexibility and efficiency for complex surgical workflows.

Key Features

• Tri-Staple technology: Graduated staple heights offer better compression, enhanced perfusion, and strong staple-line integrity.
• Ergonomic and articulating handle: One-handed operation with up to 45° articulation improves access in tight anatomical spaces.
• Universal reload compatibility: Accepts both universal and Tri-Staple reloads (tan, purple, black), reducing the need for multiple stapler handles.
• Single-use design with new blade each firing: Ensures sharpness and reduces cross-contamination risk.
• Consistent staple-line security: Six-row staple cartridges maintain integrity even at cartridge end.
• Versatile reload options: Available in various sizes (30, 45, 60 mm) and thicknesses for diverse surgical needs.
