Furthermore, the approval of EVA15 establishes it as one of the first laparoscopic and endoscopic insufflators to meet Europe’s more extensive 2021 regulatory requirements for medical devices.

The new system is intended for creating a safer operating room environment while delivering better insufflation and smoke evacuation performance to meet the specific requirements of robotic, endoscopic, endoluminal and laparoscopic procedures.

Designed to deliver similar smoke evacuation and insufflation performance as ConMed’s Airseal system, the EVA15 system also secured approval from the US Food and Drug Administration.

Palliare CEO John O’Dea said: “Certifying EVA15 as a Class 2b device to the new MDR regulation has entailed an extensive exercise, one that puts the company on a firm regulatory approval footing in Europe for the coming years.
