Precision and hemostasis are a crucial part of a thyroidectomy, and having the right instruments available can make a large impact on the post-op pain and recovery time of your patient, as well as your total time in the OR.

Our HARMONIC FOCUS^® Curved Shears offers just this kind of precise cutting. The curved blade allows you to cut and coagulate vessels and tissue at the same time. And with fewer instrument exchanges, they can reduce time spent in the OR by as much as 30 minutes.*

The HARMONIC ACE^® Curved Shears (ACE23E) provides the multifunctional benefits of the HARMONIC^® Technology and its 5mm shaft makes it an excellent choice for minimally invasive video-assisted thyroidectomy. Like the HARMONIC FOCUS Curved Shears, it can cut and coagulate vessels up to 5mm.

Which HARMONIC Device you choose for a thyroidectomy procedure is a matter of the technique you use and preference.

Using ultrasonic energy, these instruments minimize lateral thermal spread and injury of tissue. HARMONIC FOCUS and HARMONIC ACE Devices may be used to:

• Expose the thyroid.
• Transect and seal the superior pole and inferior pole vessels (up to 5mm).
• Mobilize the thyroid lobe(s).
