At its core is SmartFire technology, which monitors tissue compression before and during firing, making automatic adjustments to optimize the staple line. A 120° cone of articulation gives you the freedom to approach tissue where it naturally lies, potentially reducing the need to pull it towards the stapler.1 When you choose SureForm you can reduce uncertainty and increase stapling performance like never before.1
During the firing cycle, if additional compression is required, the system pauses, displays the “Pausing for Compression” message and plays audio feedback. Once appropriate compression is gained, the system resumes firing. Additional pausing can happen during a single fire, as SmartFire is continuously monitoring tissue conditions.

2. Compared to EndoGIA Ultra with Tri-Staple technology, SIGNIA with Tri-Staple 2.0 technology, and Powered Echelon Plus with GST as of March 2019.
The comparative studies highlighted in this document were performed in a benchtop setting or in a virtual setting and were not statistically powered to show the differences seen. The significance level to detect statistically significant differences was set at p<0.05.
