The Ethicon Echelon Flex GST System Reload (Gold) is a specialized surgical cartridge for the Echelon Flex  stapling platform. This gold-colored reload is a top choice for surgeons who need to staple standard tissue with confidence. It delivers a secure and hemostatic staple line, making it a valuable tool in general, bariatric, and colorectal surgery.

Why (Gold)?

The GST (Gripping Surface Technology) System from Ethicon is a significant innovation in surgical stapling. The gold reload offers a versatile solution for a range of tissue types.

• Ideal for a Range of Tissue: The gold reload is calibrated for a staple leg length of 3.8 mm. This makes it ideal for tissue that is too thick for green reloads but not quite thick enough for black ones. This versatility gives surgeons a reliable option for a variety of patient anatomies.
• Gripping Surface Technology (GST): The GST system features a series of staggered ridges and grooves on the cartridge face. This unique design provides a gripping effect that stabilizes tissue during firing. As a result, it prevents tissue slippage, a common problem with traditional staplers, and helps ensure a consistent staple line.
• Consistent Firing and Compression: When used with the Echelon Flex powered handle, the GST system provides a smooth, consistent firing. This helps create a uniform staple line, which is crucial for a secure and hemostatic closure.
• Versatile 60mm Length: The reload has a 60.0 mm length, which provides a long staple line for a wide range of applications. This makes it a versatile tool for procedures that require a long, secure closure.
• Color-Coded for Safety: The gold color on the reload and its packaging clearly indicates its use for standard-to-thick tissue. This simple color-coding system helps surgical teams quickly identify the correct cartridge, reducing the chance of error.

For surgeons who need to staple standard-to-thick tissue with confidence and precision, the Ethicon Echelon Flex GST System Reload (Gold) is an essential tool. Its unique gripping technology and optimized staple height give surgeons the power to perform complex procedures while ensuring a secure and reliable staple line.
