http://www.medgadget.com/wp-content/...ion-device.jpgPrescient Surgical, a company out of San Carlos, California, won FDA’s de **vo regulatory*clearance to introduce its CleanCision Wound Retraction and Protection System. Receiving de **vo clearance means this is the first device of its kind, and it is **vel.

The expanding wheel-like device opens and holds the wound retracted for easy access. It prevents hands or instruments from touching the incision, and actually provides an irrigation system to deliver a sterile solution from a nearby fluid bag to the tissue, thus further helping to prevent infections.

The CleanCision has a porous layer that touches the skin, so the irrigation fluid can be delivered in and out, and a protective outer layer that doesn’t let liquids through.

More from Prescient Surgical:

Intraoperative wound irrigation (IOWI) and continuous wound edge protection (CWEP) are independently proven practices for reducing surgical site infection and the risk of wound contamination. CleanCision is the first in a new class of irrigating wound protection devices to provide self-retaining wound retraction, continuous wound edge protection, and intraoperative wound edge irrigation with a sterile irrigant solution. CleanCision is the only intraoperative device capable of combining the synergistic benefits of continuous intraoperative wound edge irrigation and protection, integrated into a universal abdominal access platform
