Main Description
This listing covers Medtronic's single-use 5 mm laparoscopic hand instruments: the Endo Grasp grasper, Endo Dissect dissector, Endo Shears and Endo Mini-Shears. Single-use instruments arrive sharp and fully functional every case, avoiding the dull scissors and loose graspers that accumulate in reusable fleets. The mini-shears carry an insulated 31 cm shaft for use with electrosurgical energy. Graspers and dissectors handle the tissue workhorses of laparoscopic general surgery, from bowel handling to plane dissection. All instruments are sterile, single use and supplied six per box as listed.
Features and Benefits
- Always sharp – New shears cut cleanly every case instead of depending on a reprocessing fleet's condition.
- Core quartet – Grasp, dissect and two shear sizes cover the standard laparoscopic instrument set.
- Insulated mini-shears – The insulated shaft supports monopolar use for combined cut and coagulation.
- No fleet management – Single use removes repair, sharpening and tracking overhead.

Why Choose This Product
Instrument quality decides laparoscopic feel. Single-use guarantees the sharp, tight instruments reusable fleets only sometimes deliver. The quartet format maps directly onto standard laparoscopic trays.
- Case ready sharpness – Fresh edges and jaws are the differentiator against fleet variability.
- Energy ready shears – Insulated mini-shears add monopolar capability in the same instrument.
- Zero reprocessing – No turnaround dependency for add-on or late cases.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why single use instead of reusable instruments?
Reusable laparoscopic instruments dull, loosen and consume repair budgets, and their condition varies case to case. Single-use instruments guarantee a sharp, fully functional tool every procedure at a predictable per-case cost.
Can the mini-shears be used with energy?
Yes, the Endo Mini-Shears configuration listed has an insulated shaft designed for electrosurgical use. The other instruments are mechanical grasping, dissecting and cutting tools.
Is this device sterile and single use?
Yes. It is supplied sterile for single use unless its label states otherwise, and it must not be reprocessed or reused. Check the package integrity and expiry before every case.
How should this device be stored?
Store it in its original packaging under normal room conditions away from heat sources and moisture. Rotate stock by expiry date and quarantine any unit with damaged packaging.
