Synovis is continually enhancing its products to make them easier to apply at the staple line. We recently launched two new innovations:

• A thinner version of Peri-Strips Dry® with Veritas® (PSDV) Linear Staple Line Reinforcement. Now 25% thinner, it gives you more predictable stapling performance without compromising staple line strength.

*Average thickness is now 25% less.

• A peel-and-stick version of Peri-Strips Dry® with Veritas® Circular Staple Line Reinforcement that is ready out of the package so there’s no setup or waiting time.

The CE Mark is pending on these products, but they are now available in the U.S. and in many other countries.

Synovis Surgical Innovations also manufactures and markets Peri-Strips Dry® for procedures where a permanent reinforcement is preferred.
