ACCURUS® Surgical System Fluidics & 3D Technology

Dual Dynamic Drive (3D) Technology

Dual Dynamic Drive (3D) Technology

Dual Dynamic Drive (3D) Technology allows an operator to simultaneously change cut rate and vacuum with the foot treadle in just one easy step.

  • Customizable foot treadle with independent ranges for cut rate and vacuum. These parameters change proportionally as the treadle is pushed or released
  • Provides you a way to easily change the flow rate as needed throughout surgery
  • Concentration remains on the patient's eye, because cut rate, vacuum and flow are all controlled with the foot pedal and surgery isn't disrupted to make parameter changes

Proportional Vacuum Mode

The ACCURUS® Surgical System also provides surgeons the familiarity of a proportional vacuum mode. Proportional vacuum is the traditional mode for vitrectomy surgery.

Vacuum is the single variable that is controlled proportionally with the foot treadle, while the cut rate remains constant.

Proportional Vacuum Mode

Momentary Mode

The Momentary Mode allows a surgeon to use the vitrectomy probe as a tissue manipulator. Cutting is easily activated with the foot pedal for as long as needed. In this mode, the vitrectomy probe becomes a convenient tool for removing hemorrhages or engaging membranes.

Portable Vacuum and Flow Through Innovative
   Fluidics Control

The Direct Venturi Vacuum provides precise linear control of vacuum through its innovative direct venturi vacuum system that was engineered to add even more control.

  • Direct venturi cassette utilizes a small chamber with constant fluid level. No filters to degrade vacuum performance
  • Highly functional 50 μL reflux is accessible from the foot pedal
  • Automatic load and eject cassette mechanism
  • Two "task-specific" vacuum ports eliminate the need for a vacuum stopcock
  • New manifold technology was designed to make vacuum response extremely predictable. It addresses issues of older "tubing" technology, such as residual vacuum and/or regurgitation
