07:17 AM EDT, 08/21/2024 (MT Newswires) -- Teleflex ( TFX ) said Wednesday that a new retrospective analysis of clinical data shows that the Titan SGS Stapler improves procedural efficiency and clinical outcomes in laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy compared to multi-fire staplers.
The study, which included 807 patients and was conducted by five surgeons, found that using the Titan SGS Stapler reduced median operative time by 8 minutes and increased the likelihood of discharge within 24 hours post-surgery.
In addition, the Titan SGS Stapler cohort had fewer 30-day readmissions due to nausea and vomiting, as well as no leaks or strictures, the company said.
