Grace Medical Otology products available from Southmedic
Ossicular Protheses
Ossicular prostheses are commonly placed in patients with ossicular destruction or disruption due to cholesteatoma, chronic otitis media, or congenital ossicular malformation. Autografts were initially used for ossicular chain reconstruction due to their biocompatibility and good sound conduction.
Stapes Protheses
From traditional designs and materials to the more modern versions using Nitinol, each stapes prosthesis provides the innovation and quality required for stapedotomy or stapedectomy.
Ventilation Tubes
Grace Medical’s offering of silicone vent tubes has a smoother surface, created by the silicone curing from the inside out, providing less area for bacteria adhesion.
Dragonfly Surgical Drill System
The DragonFly™ Surgical Drill System, powered by InvisiDrive™, represents a model of user-friendly ergonomics. The handpiece is small in size, light in weight and hermetically-sealed to ensure optimal and consistent performance. A magnetic coupling mechanism allows for the quick and easy exchange of burs. In order to achieve pinpoint access, the system affords the opportunity to choose the appropriate bur length. To maximize visualization, a series of adaptors provides a means to vary the angulation of the burs. In addition to these dynamic features, the system employs patented BurShield™ technology to protect soft tissue and intraoperative dressing.
Specialty ENT Instruments
High quality German stainless steel instruments for surgical as well as office use. Products include Cartilage Microtome, disposable ENT procedure pack, office instruments, dissectors, disposable suctions, and much more.
Otomed And Otoshield
Products include bone dust collector, drapes, and the newly licensed for sale in Canada OtoShield Protective Barrier Drape. The OtoShield uses a self-sealing barrier drape to help reduce exposure while providing an open workspace that does not impede treatment.
Endoscopic Ear Surgery
Together with Professor Giuseppe Panetti, SPIGGLE & THEIS developed a special product series that combines suction and dissection in one instrument. Thereby, new standards could be set in Endoscopic Ear Surgery. Advantages of the Prof. Panetti Endoscopic / Microscopic Instruments: Time saving, less traumatic for the patient, enables easier removal of residual cholesteatoma, dissection and preparation with concurrent suction, effective suction control, and is autoclavable
