Additional Information about Ackermann Ligature Solutions
Ligature in surgery - Ligature systems
The Ackermann EUROPCLIP™ medical grade titanium. These implants are accompanied by matching appliers for open, as well as endoscopic procedures by any kinds of ligatures in surgery, all manufactured in our plant here in Weilheim near Tuttlingen, Germany.
This level of ownership over the complete manufacturing process allows us to not only guarantee consistently premium quality but also secured supply chains to support surgeries and medical ligatures globally and on a daily basis.
Our design for ligatures in surgery
The Ackermann EUROPCLIP™ is one of the most atraumatic shaped ligature clips in the market. With its chevron shape design and tip-first closing action placement and position while medical ligatures becomes more precise and secure. The U-shaped profile provides double the safety when being applied around the vessel reducing the risk of misalignment and, therefore, leakage. Our unique surface polishing process guarantees allows for a perfect balance between firm grip and soft tissue contact that prohibits the clips from rupturing vessels while medical ligatures. Our pride and glory, however, is the highly advanced cross serration minted on the inside of each clip. Tests in diverse ligatures in surgery have shown that these grooves not just increase the resistance to dislodgement but also provide a significant advantage in terms of traction over competitive products while maintaining the structure of the tissue.
Our cartgridges for ligatures in surgery
The clips are safely and manually placed into color coded soft-load cartridges that are designed to ensure frictionless one-hand loading action. Additionally, they feature an adhesive on the back to be firmly and securely placed on surgical gloves or other surfaces.
All cartridges are sterile packed in our in-house clean room and later gamma sterilized, ready to be used out of the box in medical ligatures.
Our appliers in medical ligatures
Our expertise in the development and manufacture of stainless steel surgical instruments, perfected over generations, allows us to match our clips with equally premium appliers. We appreciate the importance of reliably performing instrumentation and its impact on the effectiveness of the ligation.
All Ackermann appliers feature a special coating inside the jaw to increase grip and durability in order to ensure satisfying results over many reprocessing cycles.
The color-coding of both open and endoscopic appliers supports the ease-of-use while medical ligatures and seamlessly complements the line.
The success of this range has pushed us to expand and now also provide appliers for polymer and other brands vessel sealing solutions.
Today, our clips are being used globally and are, of course CE marked and FDA approved.
