An innovative, proprietary, soft tissue fixation technology for
minimally invasive procedures
*Currently, the device is not available for commercial use.
The Fastener is made of polydioxanone, a bioabsorbable suture that is flexible and monofilamentous
Compared to conventional tackers, the aproxim8™ has two suture needles that guide the fastener through the mesh and tissue, replicating a figure-of-eight like stitch
