Innovation

The Patton Surgical PassPort Shielded Access Device represents a significant advancement in trocar technology. A blunt tip shield covers the cutting tip while the SmartTip enters the abdominal cavity. A blade shield protects the blade edges before the cannula reaches the peritoneum.

Confidence

Before the PassPort, Surgeons have had to choose between two types of Trocars for closed abdominal entry: Shielded and Bladeless. Shielded Trocars always enter the abdominal cavity with an exposed scalpel-sharp blade. Bladeless Trocars often require excessive force to penetrate the abdominal wall. The PassPort eliminates the compromise with smooth, controlled penetration and blunt entry.
