Improving Surgery,
Advancing Patient Safety

Encision Inc. is a medical technology company focused on the minimally invasive surgery market providing laparoscopic instruments. Encision is committed to providing innovative electrosurgical products that optimize surgeon technique, improve patient outcomes and enhance patient safety.

Encision has developed and launched innovative surgical technology, called active electrode monitoring, that is emerging as a standard of care in minimally invasive surgery. Encision’s patented AEM® surgical instruments provide surgeons with the desired tissue effects, while preventing patient injury caused by stray energy burns, a recognized risk in laparoscopic surgery.

The AEM product line includes most of the standard shapes, sizes and functionality as conventional instruments, but with patented shielding and monitoring technology integrated into the design. The result is advanced patient safety, at a comparable cost and with no change in surgeon techniques.

Encision’s AEM technology is recommended by sources from key groups involved with laparoscopic surgery. Surgeons, nurses, biomedical engineers, malpractice insurance carriers, medicolegal professionals and electrosurgical device manufacturers advocate the use of AEM instruments to advance patient safety in surgery.

Did You Know?

An article in the Journal of Healthcare Risk Management stated that physicians and hospitals might be deemed liable for stray energy burns by virtue of the failure to use or obtain certain available safety equipment, given the known risks for thermal injury caused by stray energy released during laparoscopic electrosurgery.
