CONMED Corporation (NYSE:CNMD) today announced that its AirSeal® Robotic Solution is now indicated for use with Intuitive’s 8 mm hex cannulas used as part of the Intuitive da Vinci 5 platform ("dV5"). Alongside its existing indication for Intuitive 8 mm round cannulas, the AirSeal Robotic Solution now has an expanded indication for use across Intuitive’s portfolio of da Vinci X, da Vinci Xi, and da Vinci 5 robotic systems.

Building on the existing indication for Intuitive’s da Vinci 8mm round cannulas, AirSeal Robotic Solution is now also indicated for use with the 8mm hex cannula. The expanded indication reinforces the clinical and commercial benefits of AirSeal within robotic surgery by supporting compatibility with Intuitive’s latest platform architecture and enabling hospitals and surgeons to use complementary technologies with greater clarity. Backed by over 40 clinical studies demonstrating the benefits of AirSeal at low insufflation pressures, the AirSeal Robotic Solution is intended to help enhance patient outcomes, support procedural efficiency, and strengthen CONMED’s differentiated position in a growing robotic surgery market.
