The current worldwide electrosurgical (ES) device market is very dangerous. Many of these devices are prone to extraneous current leakage that causes tissue damage. According to the Association of Perioperative Registered Nurses, 40,000 patients per year are burned by faulty ES devices. This is unexpectable in an industry where safety should be a primary concern. 

This problem stems from the fact that most medical laser systems operate without a feedback system. None of them address how to control bleeding during surgery. High-power lasers are an ideal solution as they can burn tissue to seal a laceration. However, these lasers require precise control of the power to prevent the tissues from burning.

Here at SharpArrow Medical, our laser tissue sealer and cutter overcome these oversights in electrosurgical and laser-based surgical systems. Our patented optical system can deliver a precise amount of laser power without burning tissue. Additional proprietary sensor technologies ensure system safety as well as efficacy. Light-tissue interaction sensory  data accumulated from the system is used to create a universal, smart medical laser device, suitable for a wide range of medical applications.

We are currently building a prototype system for demonstration purpose. Once completed, we plan to first deploy these systems for laparoscopic and robotic surgeries. Medical companies such as Medtronics and Auris Health (acquired by Johnson & Johnson) have shown interest in our laser technologies. Furthermore, we are also working with government agencies to further expand and develop our laser technology.
