Satellite Symposium 3: POWERED MEETS MECHANICAL STAPLING
by RiVOLUTiON
Friday, November 11, 2022 | 01:00–02:00 pm | ROOM HORIZONT
Expert Powered Stapling: Dr. med Barbara Jacobi (Management Obesity Center Saarbrücken)
Expert Mechanical Stapling: Dr. Victor Diaconu (Head of Bariatric Surgery at Porvita Hospital Bucharest / Romania)
Moderator: Dr. Sylvia Weiner (conference representaive)/ Thomas Geir (CEO RiVOLUTiON GmbH)
In the symposium, Dr. Jacobi presented the PSTBS study with powered staplers from Fulbright. Furthermore, advantages, opportuniLes and differences in the use of different stapling technologies are shown. Powered stapling, as an evoluLon of mechanical staplers, is already widespread in everyday surgery. Powered Stapling impresses with 90% less effort and 100% stability when released, including increased compression force. Nevertheless, many surgeons prefer the proven mechanical stapler based on experience and the best surgical results.
The symposium is supported by two top experts in bariatric surgery:
Powered Stapling
Dr. med Barbara Jacobi, Head of the Obesity Center Saarbrücken will present the PMCF study using the powered stapler Lunar U (Fulbright Medical).
Mechanical Stapling
Dr. Victor Diaconu as a top expert in the field of bariatric surgery, will speak about surgical procedures using mechanical stapling technology. He is Head of Bariatric Surgery at Porvita Hospital in Bucharest/Romania and performs approximately 1,000 bariatric surgeries per year.
