Integrated Endoscopy Releases Nuvis Wireless Camera System for International Markets

Integrated Endoscopy, a medical device company pioneering the development of the wireless arthroscopic surgery market, has commercially launched its advanced Nuvis Wireless Camera System.

 

Brad Sharp, Integrated Endoscopy’s CEO, commented: “The future of arthroscopy is wireless…and our mission at Integrated Endoscopy is to lead that charge. In keeping with that mission, we’re proud to be able to present our latest innovation—a game-changing, wireless camera system for the arthroscopic market. It’s very rare that next-generation technology which greatly enhances the surgical experience also has the ability to reduce hardware costs by up to 95%.  Even with the addition of the consumable components, we have the potential to reduce the overall cost, per surgery, by 50%.”

 

The Nuvis wireless camera system is next-generation wireless communication for surgeons and health centers that is cheaper than traditional corded cameras. The proprietary channel hopping technology ensures latency-free, secure, and highly reliable connectivity. Also, the system is not reliant on WiFi or Bluetooth, which eliminates the possibility of cross-talk between base stations and other devices.

 

The camera system’s wireless base station works seamlessly with the corresponding heads to ensure automatic wireless connectivity, simplifying use. A tablet computer is also included, which allows for base station control and patient data entry while serving as an auxiliary monitor. The system uses a rechargeable Li-ion battery for lower heat and battery life greater than three hours.

 

The Nuvis wireless camera is the third leg of a “three-legged stool” comprising the company’s novel wireless strategy. When combined with its wireless arthroscope and wireless shaver, Integrated Endoscopy can uniquely provide a completely wireless solution with no annual service contracts, and at a fraction of the cost of a traditional video stack.  

 

The Nuvis wireless camera system is a Class I CE, and the company will be filing for US FDA 510k clearance. Integrated Endoscopy’s NUVIS single-use, 4K, cordless arthroscope is FDA 501(k) cleared, CE marked, and registered in several markets around the world.
