MD&DI MAGAZINE SELECTS INCISIVE SURGICAL AS ONE OF TOP 50 MEDICAL DEVICE COMPANIES TO WATCH IN 2006
Minneapolis, June 14 – Incisive Surgical, Inc. today announced that Medical Device & Diagnostic Industry (“MD&DI”) magazine has selected Incisive Surgical as one of the top 50 medical device companies in the country to watch in 2006.
In the June 2006 issue of MD&DI magazine, the editors commented: “Incisive Surgical forged a new approach to skin closure with its subcuticular skin stapler, the INSORB®|20. It combines the cosmetic results of absorbable sutures with the rapid closure times of metal skin staplers. The staples it dispenses are made from bioabsorbable materials and become absorbed by the body after a few months. Physicians and patients alike have praised the product, which is used in colorectal, obstetrics and gynecology, vascular, cosmetic, and general surgery, and whose use is growing rapidly. The stapler received a Medical Design Excellence Award in 2005 and the Frost & Sullivan Wound Closure Product Innovation of the Year Award in 2006.”
“We are honored to be selected as one of the top 50 medical device companies to watch in 2006 by the prestigious MD&DI magazine,” said John L. Shannon, Jr., president and chief executive officer of Incisive Surgical. “We continue our efforts to successfully penetrate the surgical marketplace and establish the INSORB technology as the new standard for skin closure.”About Incisive Surgical
