Integrated Endoscopy medical device company that has developed cordless 4K, low-cost, single-use endoscopes for arthroscopic surgery markets, has partnered with Frii Medical to bring its shaver system to the global market.
Frii’s single use battery shaver system is similar to Integrated Endoscopy’s single-use NUVIS arthroscope in reducing the cost of capital equipment that is required with traditional shaver systems. Frii’s system eliminated the cost of processing and sterilization.
The system is a first-of-its-kind wireless shaver that comes with a reusable motor/ battery module and associated recharger station. Burrs and blades can be intraoperatively changed for any type of procedure.
“The synergy between Frii’s shaver and our existing family of wireless arthroscopy products makes for a natural fit, and we look forward to being able to provide surgeons with the optimal convenience of a family of innovative devices that are critical to the wireless experience,” said Integrated Endoscopy CEO, Brad Sharp. “It’s gratifying to be able to offer a wireless shaver that eliminates the shaver box, cord, and shaver head alongside other innovations such as our single use scope that eliminates the need for a light box and light fiber; and a forthcoming wireless camera that eliminates the need for a camera box, camera cord and image capture box. The future of arthroscopy is wireless, and we’re excited to be leading the charge.”
Integrated Endoscopy will display the new shaver system at the American academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) Meeting in San Francisco next month. The company will be located at booth #5607 to also share demos of the NUVIS Scope that is FDA 501k cleared and CE marked.
