The Food and Drug Administration granted marketing clearance Wednesday to a console-and-power unit for detachable surgical instruments developed by Power Medical Interventions Inc.
The Langhorne, Pa., medical-device company plans to begin selling the iDrive Intelligent Power unit and iConsole “effective immediately.”
The products, according to Power Medical (OTCBB:PMII), are designed to support a variety of minimally invasive procedures and offer surgeons “a broad range of cutting and stapling configurations combined with increased flexibility, access and precision.”
The iDrive is a hand-held, computer-controlled power unit to which any of the company’s Intelligent Surgical Instruments can be attached. The iConsole is a wireless device that communicates directly with the iDrive during surgical procedures to output specific auditory and visual reference information through a speaker and liquid crystal display
