Overview

Permanent Fixation Redefined

CapSure™ provides surgeons the confidence they desire through strong and reliable fixation.

Traditional challenges in permanent fixation for hernia repair

Permanent fixation devices facilitate a strong long-term repair but may be associated with some challenges:

  • Clinical complications from exposed metal points including adhesions to fastener
  • Difficulties securing large pore mesh may impact hernia repair outcomes
  • Deployment challenges and device reliability issues can disrupt procedures


BD has redefined permanent fixation

Covered

  • Smooth polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cap eliminates exposed metal tip and helps minimise adhesions to the fastener*


Strong

  • Fixates into Cooper’s ligament and underlying structures, similar to ProTack™


Reliable

  • Comfortable handle and easy to deploy trigger
  • Consistent fastener deployment and depth of tissue purchase
  • Reliable, secure fixation regardless of mesh pore size
  • Improved fixation with large pore meshes due to larger cap surface area of fastener versus ProTack™

*Preclinical data. Results may not correlate to the performance in humans.

Features and Benefits
REDEFINED FASTENER DESIGN
REDEFINED FASTENER DESIGN

316L stainless steel

  • 316L stainless steel is a surgical stainless steel commonly used in biomedical implants that are put under pressure including bone screws and prostheses


Smooth PEEK cap

  • Cap is made from polyetheretherketone (PEEK). PEEK is an inert organic thermoplastic polymer, considered an advanced biomaterial


PEEK is used in many medical implants including dental implants, heart valves and stents, and joint prostheses

DESIGNED FOR OPTIMIZED CLINICAL BENEFITS

DESIGNED FOR OPTIMISED CLINICAL BENEFITS

A 90 Day Preclinical Adhesion Study Demonstrated Stronger Results with the CapSure™ Fixation System vs. ProTack™ Fixation System.

Evaluation of a Novel Permanent Capped Helical Coil Fastener in a Porcine Model of Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Repair

  • Significantly less adhesion coverage 
  • Greater percentage of properly engaged fasteners 
  • Greater mesh/tissue integration 
  • Shielding exposed fastener points on the visceral mesh surface with polymer caps is suggested by the data to reduce adhesion formation and aid in mesh fixation and integration 

Preclinical data. Results may not correlate to performance in humans.
STRONG REPAIR
STRONG REPAIR

CapSure™ fastener easily penetrates Cooper’s ligament and underlying structures, equivalent to ProTack™

Equivalent Strength to ProTack™ at t0, Greater Strength Over Time

Equivalent Strength to ProTack™ at t0, Greater Strength Over Time

Burst strength testing demonstrated that in a porcine model CapSure™ fixated Ventralight™ ST Mesh had a greater (4.3%) burst strength at t0 and significantly higher (18.4%) peak burst strength at 6 weeks post-implantation than did ProTack™ fixated Ventralight™ ST Mesh at the same time point (p = .0088).

Better confidence in your delivery system performance

  • Rotary drive system with a comfortable handle and easy to deploy trigger, with an average delivery force that is 30% less than ProTack™1
  • Consistent fastener deployment and depth of tissue purchase – preclinical studies demonstrated more favorable fastener seating results versus ProTack™2
  • Available in 15 and 30 fastener count devices providing significant savings per device over ProTack™, for repairs where 15 or fewer fasteners are required

CapSure™ Fasteners have 2X the mesh surface area coverage to hold mesh in place ensuring secure fixation and more visible fasteners. Bench testing with 3DMax™ Light demonstrates that CapSure™ is 15X more likely to retain large pore mesh versus ProTack™1
