LITHOTOMY STIRRUPS FOR PATIENT COMFORT
Frontier Medical Innovations says its new GStirrup® is designed to provide patients stable and comfortable foot positioning for extended periods of time during office-based surgical procedures. The GStirrup is a pair of cushioned lithotomy boots that attach to examination-table foot rests. Straps secure the patient’s feet and legs; weights in the base make it difficult for the patient to lift the boot off the footrest. GStirrups fit most footrests and are helpful for patients who have hip or knee replacement, low back pain, arthritis, or neurologic conditions such as multiple sclerosis or Parkinson’s disease.

REUSABLE FORNIX FOR LAP HYSTERECTOMY
The Banyan Colpo-Port Vaginal Fornix Delineator is a reusable uterine elevator/vaginal fornix delineator for laparoscopic hysterectomy. Inserted vaginally, the distal tip has a canted, beveled cup that fits securely in the vaginal fornix.

PORT-SITE CLOSURE DEVICE
neoClose® AnchorGuide facilitates rapid trocar exchange and precise AutoAnchor placement to help prevent port-site hernia. The AnchorGuide design facilitates the delivery of absorbable AutoAnchors through soft tissue during surgery; allows for the VectorX method of port approximation for reduced tension at wound sites; and helps desufflate to remove CO2 at the end of surgery. AnchorGuide comes in 8–15 mm and 5–12 mm sizes compatible with 8 mm robotic ports.
