Caiman 12 Vessel Sealer – 12 mm Instrument by Aesculap

This version of the Caiman 12 vessel sealer has a 24cm or 44cm length shaft that will work down most 12.5mm trocars.

Caiman 12mm devices feature a 50 mm sealing length – one third longer than any other vessel sealer on the market.  All Caiman vessel sealing devices are FDA approved to coagulate and cut vessels up to 7mm in diameter. The shaft of the instrument is designed for veterinary use at 24 or 44cm–perfect for open or laparoscopic use. Many veterinary practices using EtO gas sterilization have found the equipment to be long lasting and affordable for every day use. The hinged jaw and tip-first closure facilitates capturing large amounts of tissue quickly and efficiently for coagulation and cutting.

Caiman 12 Vessel Sealer

Designed for a variety of laparoscopic and open procedures and can accommodate a wide range of patient sizes.

Benefits

Longest Jaw
Caiman 12 has a 50 mm sealing length and the longest jaw of any 5 mm RF device available, allowing for heightened efficiency for laparoscopic procedures. The 50 mm jaw allows veterinary surgeons to seal and cut 30% more tissue at a time compared to other 5 mm vessel sealing devices.

Uniform Tissue Compression
Caiman Vessel Sealers feature a proprietary hinged jaw. The lower jaw hinge causes the tip of the instrument to close first, capturing tissue and preventing slippage. This unique design then allows the upper and lower jaws to compress tissue in parallel, creating uniform compression forces distal to proximal. The result is a secure and consistent seal surgeons can rely on.
