"Innovation-Driven"`, meeting clinical needs`

With the rapid development of China's economy and the intensification of the aging population trend, the demand for surgeries has shown a significant growth. In addition, the current gradual advancement of the tiered medical treatment system and the rapid expansion of the surgery market in secondary hospitals have placed higher demands on the accessibility of quality medical resources.

The stapler plays an important role in the surgical process. Its widespread adoption has spanned half a century, with application scenarios evolving from initial use only in open surgeries to suitability for endoscopic procedures. The mode of operation has also shifted from traditional manual firing that relies on the surgeon's experience to electric firing, further enhancing its stability. However, as medical services continue to advance and surgeries become increasingly complex, variations in patients' physical conditions and comprehensive cancer treatments both impact the characteristics of human tissues, presenting higher challenges for the clinical application of staplers.

With the launch of Medtronic Surgical's groundbreaking product – the Signia™ Stapling System with chip technology, it will drive surgical stapling into the intelligent era, meeting more complex and personalized surgical needs.
