Buchbinder Surgeon Adjustable Valve Exciser Device

The BSAVED® Valvulotome by Koven Technology was designed by a vascular surgeon to maximise the efficiency of valvulotomy procedures. It is equally effective in large and small veins. Blade size is adjusted while inside the vessel, thus eliminating the need to change cutting heads.

The ergonomic handle design enables the surgeon to deploy the blades with a single-handed operation. The simple turn of a dial secures the blades into position for stationary, precise deployment and more exact diameter. Blades do not come in direct contact with the vein wall, minimising trauma to the endothelium and assuring that valves are cut cleanly.

Many specialists are familiar with the Le Maitre self sizing Valvulotome. A feature by feature comparison to the Le Maitre valvulotome is on the reverse of the brochure found on the "links" tab. Both the le maitre valvulotome and the BSAVED can be used in in-situ non reverse bypass graft procedures where the valves are excised.
