LivsMed

Bringing precision surgery to the hands of surgeons, one patient at a time

11/18/2025

If you’re wondering where the latest high-tech innovations in laparoscopic surgery are coming from, take a look at LivsMed.
LivsMed and Sovato recently completed an early-feasibility wet-lab study—spanning more than 2,000 miles—using STARK, the world’s newest telesurgery-native robot. Visitors can learn more at the 16th Clinical Robotic Surgery Association (CRSA) World Congress in Huntington Beach, as we wrap up our November High-Tech MedTech Roadshow.
So far, the Roadshow has made stops at the 50th Annual Korean-American Medical Association (K**A) Scientific Convention in Washington, D.C., the AAGL25 Global Conference in Vancouver, and the ASMBS Weekend Meeting in Louisville, KY. Attendees have experienced the ArtiSential™ line—now featuring more than 50 fully articulating instruments and end effectors; the ArtiSential 5 series, the first 5mm articulating laparoscopic line offering enhanced flexibility and ease of use; the ArtiSential Clip Applier, the only 90° double-jointed articulating clip applier; and ArtiSeal™, the only 90° double-jointed articulating vessel sealer.
If you can’t see us on the road, email infoUSA@LivsMed.com to schedule a meeting with your local LivsMed representative and experience LivsMed’s solutions at work in your hospital or ASC.
STARK™ is not approved for use and not for sale.

On Tuesday, November 11, Yufan “Brandon” Chen, MD, FACOG, will present the findings of his study, “Conventional Laparoscopic vs. Multi-Degree of Freedom Articulating Instruments in Minimally Invasive Surgical Suturing.”

The study evaluated the ArtiSential™ laparoscopic needle driver—a novel, multi-degree-of-freedom instrument—and compared its performance to conventional (straight stick) laparoscopic instruments. Specifically, it examined knot-tying times during laparoscopic sacrocolpopexy procedures.

Dr. Chen’s presentation will take place during Oral Session 05, from 11:00 AM to 12:00 PM at the Vancouver Convention Centre, Vancouver, B.C., Canada.
Dr. Chen serves as Chief, Division of Urogynecology and Pelvic Reconstructive Surgery, Kern Medical; Assistant Professor, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA and Associate Program Director, OBGYN Residency Program.

Did you know LivsMed offers Pediatric Surgeons significant advantages? Our ArtiSential™ 5 line—40% smaller than standard 8mm instruments—provides enhanced maneuverability in the tight, confined spaces common to pediatric procedures. The smaller instrument size can also improve visibility at the surgical site depending on the procedure and angle of approach. For patients, the smaller trocar size means a smaller incision—often resulting in reduced pain, faster recovery, and minimal scarring.

ArtiSeal™ is an advanced bipolar electrosurgical instrument system intended for minimally invasive or open surgical procedures where ligation and division of vessels and tissue bundles are desired. With ArtiSeal’s 90° articulating capability, surgeons can get a preferred, precise perpendicular seal. It has been described as a 5-in-1 instrument. First, ArtiSeal seals, obviously. Second, it can be used as a cold knife. Third, it can be used for blunt dissection. Fourth, it’s a grasper. And fifth, it can be used for spot coagulation. But what’s important, and this is the difference, ArtiSeal delivers all of that with articulation. To watch the video scan the QR Code.

LivsMed’s new double-jointed, fully articulating Clip Applier provides the widest range of motion available, even in the narrow pelvic space. Surgical teams and patients can benefit from more precise angles of approach and flexible movements that better target critical structures and achieve secure clip application. With the Clip Applier, the ArtiSential line has more than 50 instruments and end effectors meeting the needs of virtually every surgical discipline.

Dr. Shirin Razdan narrates today’s video, providing insights as we watch her father, Dr. Sanjay Razdan, use the ArtiSential Clip Applier during a radical prostatectomy with bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy.

Company Overview

LIVSMED is a medical device company that brings advanced clinical care to minimally invasive surgery. We have achieved this by creating a new generation of laparoscopic technology. Our new group of instruments, ArtiSential™, are a blending of the words “articulation” and “essential”. LivsMed’s ArtiSential™ line provides multiple degrees of freedom at the tip of the instrument that is perfectly synchronized with the user’s wrist and hand movements. These instruments can be immediately incorporated into any existing surgical environment without additional capital or footprint like those of the robotic systems today. With ArtiSential™, we are bringing precision surgery to the hands of doctors one patient at a time.
