Introducing Watson Flex®

Our Technology

The Watson Flex® Retractor System is comprised of a true self-retaining Retractor Frame, which when used in conjunction with popular Elastic Stay hooks allows for unmatched stability, access, and visualization across a wide range of surgical applications. The device is a single-use, flexible frame with an attached stability membrane that allows for patient matched conformity resulting in a low-profile stable frame ready for retraction.

Patient Matched Retraction

Watson Flex® offers a simple, intuitive retraction environment incorporated into the surgical site to optimize access to patient anatomy and improve visibility. The Polypropylene frame is highly flexible, allowing accommodation to a variety of anatomic variability. The stability membrane allows for this flexibility, while simultaneously allowing for impressive anchor point stability. The rigid anchor points around the system can be used with a wide variety readily available stays that can be repositioned to reveal additional layers as the surgery progresses.

Watson Flex® represents a simple, yet elegant approach to tissue retraction. Its intuitive design requires no introduction, and works seamlessly with a wide variety of readily available stays.

Stability – By mounting directly to the patient, the frame provides unmatched stability, keeping retractors in place in relation to the operative site.

Patient matched – The low-profile flexible frame allows for perfect surface mounting on variable geometries, allowing improved visualization and access.

Cost/productivity – Fewer hands needed; Fewer Stays needed; Fewer adjustments needed.

Safety – The stability membrane prevents the frame from mistakenly falling from the surgical field and reduces the chance of compromising the sterile field.
