JensCare Announces Exclusive Partnership with LivsMed to Introduce Full-Angle Laparoscopic Hand-Controlled Robotic Arm in China and Singapore

Recently, emerging medical technology company Genesis Medtech announced that it has reached an exclusive business agency partnership with the South Korean company LivsMed: Genesis Medtech will introduce LivsMed's innovative products to China and Singapore, bringing "new weapons" to minimally invasive surgical procedures in both countries.

LivsMed, established in 2011, is a medical device company specializing in the research, development, and manufacturing of endoscopic instruments. Its innovatively developed “Omni-Angle Endoscopic Manual Robotic Arm” was honored with the Red Dot Design Award in 2019. The product began sales in South Korea in 2018 and entered the U.S. market in 2019. Currently, LivsMed’s products are marketed and used in numerous countries, including Japan, the United Kingdom, and Australia, and have been widely acclaimed by minimally invasive surgeons.

For minimally invasive surgery, if a device can deliver precise force to delicate structures, it represents a significant “boon” for both physicians and patients. Some high-difficulty minimally invasive procedures (such as suturing and tumor resection near major blood vessels or critical tissues) pose substantial challenges for surgeons during operations, particularly in cases where staplers cannot be used.

LivsMed’s “Omni-Angle Endoscopic Hand-Controlled Robotic Arm” addresses the aforementioned challenges and significantly enhances surgical safety. Designed with ergonomics in mind, it features a multi-jointed working end. Unlike traditional endoscopic surgical instruments, its working end moves in synchronous alignment with the surgeon’s finger and wrist movements, mimicking the function of the human hand and serving as a direct extension of the hand—hence the name “Hand-Controlled Robotic Arm.” Furthermore, it enables 360° free adjustment and intuitive control, allowing access to the surgical site from multiple angles, making it particularly suitable for procedures involving narrow spaces and requiring precise manipulation.

“Full-Angle Endoscopic Manually Controlled Robotic Arm” requires neither complex equipment preparation nor special patient positioning. The entire product line features 150 different specifications and functional working tips, suitable for surgical procedures across various specialties, including general surgery, thoracic surgery, urology, and gynecology.

“It is extremely convenient and highly intuitive; this is my strongest impression of using this instrument in surgery.” Professor Yoon Suk Lee from the Department of Surgery at Seoul St. Mary’s Hospital in South Korea thus evaluated the omnidirectional laparoscopic hand-controlled robotic arm.

Department of Surgery, Seoul National University Bundang HospitalSangHoon AhnThe professor believes that,“The omnidirectional laparoscopic hand-controlled robotic arm overcomes the current limitations of laparoscopic surgery and represents a paradigmatic solution for such procedures. As surgeons become accustomed to using this device, their surgical proficiency may be significantly enhanced.”

As the feasibility of minimally invasive surgery continues to improve, it has gradually begun to replace open surgery in recent years, placing higher demands on the upgrading and innovation of surgical instruments.

“Since the 21st century, new technologies have been applied across various fields. Although minimally invasive surgery has developed for nearly 30 years, there is still a need for more innovative instruments,” said Jung Joo Lee, Founder and CEO of LivsMed. “The omnidirectional endoscopic handheld robotic arm can mimic doctors’ finger and wrist movements in real time. This dexterity enables many complex procedures to be performed via minimally invasive approaches. We are delighted to partner with Genesis Medtech to bring this new technology to more surgeons and patients.”

Wang Xin, Chairman and CEO of Genesis Medtech Group, stated: “LivsMed’s omnidirectional endoscopic manual robotic arm is a ‘new weapon’ in minimally invasive surgery, already benefiting surgeons and patients in many countries. LivsMed’s innovation-driven corporate DNA aligns perfectly with Genesis Medtech’s philosophy. With our strong commercialization capabilities in China and Singapore, we hope that through this collaboration, more surgeons will be able to utilize this innovative product.”

Currently, the “Full-Angle Endoscopic Hand-Controlled Robotic Arm” has initiated its registration process in China. Upon market launch, it will equip minimally invasive surgeons with a “new weapon,” facilitating the advancement of precise minimally invasive surgical practices.
