PK AIM

PK AIM is a single-use instrument that, for the first time ever, combines two standard instruments for open surgery in one: bipolar forceps and a monopolar needle electrode. Both can be used alternately. All you have to do is move the button on the top forwards or backwards. It also enables the appropriate buttons for monopolar or bipolar applications (yellow for cut and blue for coagulate). This two-in-one instrument can make the work of surgeons much easier.

The design is based on the corporate product design defined by Held+Team.
