When operating in tight spaces or near critical structures, precise energy delivery becomes vital.
HARMONIC™ devices are the undisputed ultrasonic energy leader proven to minimize the impact on tissue with precise energy delivery.1 HARMONIC 1100 Shears, our most advanced Ultrasonic device, with secure vessel sealing indication up to 7mm2, provides faster transection speeds3, lower maximum blade temperature4, and more precise tissue dissection.
The HARMONIC 1100 Shears is an advanced energy, ultrasonic device that is a sterile, single patient use instrument used for general dissection, vessel sealing, back-scoring, otomy creation, mesentery marching or dissecting in tissue planes. HARMONIC 1100 consists of: an ergonomic handle, an integrated hand piece, Advanced Hemostasis with two energy delivery buttons to allow for increased dissection or increased coagulation, two shaft lengths (20cm and 36cm).

A meta-analysis comparing the HARMONIC™ scalpel to conventional techniques in gastrectomy for dissection and coagulation found the HARMONIC scalpel demonstrated significant reduction in:
Operating time6
Intraoperative blood loss
Curved, tapered tip that enables more precise dissection than HARMONIC ACE™ +7 Shears.5 Its unique shape mimics a mechanical dissector and may reduce the need to use a separate dedicated dissecting instrument.
Reduce heat exposure on tissue with transection speeds 35% faster when using the Energy button10 and 40% faster when transecting vessels 5-7mm in diameter using Advanced Hemostasis mode.
