Ligasure show is over folks

Quote
Listen to the the gyrus rep gettin all pigeon chested!! I've observed three cases with the tigerbeat. First case the jaws melted together. Second case and third case the ultrasonic jaw BROKE OFF. The only way tigerbeat is getting in is because they are N/C evals.
 






whomever the last rep that stated that all 3 trials ended in broken equipment, is obviously a bald faced liar. Who actually does 3 trials and has 3 broken instruments? What a joke.
Seriously you are a joke. Quit bashing everyone.
 
























To the person who said 3 trials failed and gave reasons i.e. melted together and probe probe.

The console would have prevented the melting as a fail safe function after recognising not tissue present. Probes broken, if this was the case the surgeon would have had to have jammed the probe during a colpotomy against the manipulator. In this the console would have given him prior warning. These are extreme cases and it seems the surgeon who tried was a cowboy.

Who invited this rookie dipshit?! Have you ever been in an OR? You're a douche, go away. Blame the surgeon! Good thinking, maybe tell him more clearly tht your shit sucks and will break if he uses like ligasure. Be more gentle, right? Oh, must have been an outlier event... Dink.

Even if Ligasure show is over, once we launch wireless ultrasonic, we are back to riding the gravy train. After that 2 year ride we will have something else. We have been introducing new products for over 40 years and consistently been a leader in the energy industry. Once we have wireless ultrasonic, we will be the only company that can provide complete standardization when it comes to energy/staplers/sutures/ mesh. Right now is one of the most exciting times to be a Covidien rep. I definately wouldn't jump shop to join Ethigone!

Covidien, harmonics and new applied all have wireless, and all reprocessing companies have 510K for them, I worked for the leader in the reprocessing industry.

I reckon an inexperienced surgeon/registrar used this and tried to handle Thunderbeat as if he had ligasure in his hands. A pre-trial chat sorts that out. I agree with many here the surgeon knows his clinical stuff; you know your product. It is best for reps to know your part and not to cross the line into their business.
There will always be mistakes by surgeons when they get a product that utilises new technology and most ligasure and harmonic reps think its just another device that delivers bipolar and ultrasonic energy...its not!

Olympus have stuffed up their launch but they are now getting traction.
 












Have any of you seen/heard about Applied's new energy/vessel sealing device? One of my dr's said they are going to start releasing/evaluating their latest and greatest in the 4th qtr
 
























We haven't seen it in our area, but I'm sure as soon as it does come out at least a 1/3 of my hospitals will switch to it because it will be 1/2 the cost of the Ligasure
