* In side-by-side benchtop testing, average compression of distal 0.11 in of jaws used in ENSEAL® G2 Curved was 187 psi (standard deviation 81 psi) and ENSEAL® G2 Straight was 104 psi (standard deviation 36 psi) vs. 42 psi (standard deviation 8 psi) for LigaSure 5mm, p<0.0000.
† In a benchtop study with ENSEAL G2 Curved and Straight using 5mm porcine carotid arteries, vessel burst pressure was measured over 52 activation cycles, p<0.05.
‡ Studies conducted on porcine mesentary.1
§ Based on number of tissue sticking events during continuous resection of porcine mesentery model over five (5) minutes of use ENSEAL G2 Curved and Straight had a sticking rate of 1.6% or less vs. 10.6% for LigaSure 5mm (p<0.001).

ENSEAL® Technology
Gentle on tissue. Strong on sealing.
ENSEAL® Devices bring a new level of assurance to sealing large vessels up to 7mm. The next generation ENSEAL® Technology delivers several sealing advancements.
I-BLADE® Technology delivers high uniform compression throughout device tips for seal consistency. Other bipolar devices rely solely on the force of initial jaw closure to provide compression – which results in a fall-off in force from the proximal to the distal end of the jaws.
A polymer compound within the jaw uses Positive Temperature Coefficient (PTC) technology to modulate energy flow. It maintains a constant temperature of approximately 100°C, minimizing tissue sticking, charring and smoke.
Offset electrodes help contain energy flow within jaws
Other bipolar devices have simple positive and negative electrodes, which allow energy to spread significantly into surrounding tissue. ENSEAL® Devices feature a unique offset electrode design, which helps contain energy flow within the jaws, reducing lateral thermal spread to approximately 1mm.
