Bovie Medical – named for the inventor of modern electrosurgery, Dr. William T. Bovie – leverages a portfolio of proprietary technology and expertise spanning the design, development and manufacture of electrosurgical equipment to create advanced energy devices that it markets around the globe. The company maintains a number of well-respected brands, including Bovie®, Aaron®, IDS™ and ICON™, in addition to marketing its products through private labels.
J-Plasma® is Bovie Medical’s leading product. A plasma-based surgical product for cutting and coagulation, J-Plasma® combines the unique properties of cold helium plasma with RF energy to give surgeons greater precision, minimal invasiveness and an absence of potentially dangerous conductive currents through patients during surgery. To date, the product has been used successfully in a wide array of surgical procedures, such as capsular scoring, wound debridement and scar revision. J-Plasma® is still in the early stages of commercialization, according to the company’s website, but Bovie Medical believes that it has the potential to become a “transformational product for surgeons.”
In August 2016, the market potential of J-Plasma® was reaffirmed when a portion of the J-Plasma® platform was recognized as an “Innovation of the Year” by The Society of Laparoendoscopic Surgeons for the third consecutive year. The Precise 360™ hand piece, which received this year’s distinction, features an angled and rotating tip that allows surgeons to access structures that are difficult to reach with a straight laparoscopic device. In 2014, the J-Plasma® product line received the same distinction, and, in 2015, the title was given to the Bovie Ultimate™ Operating Room Generator, which combines J-Plasma® technology with the highest wattage monopolar and bipolar electrosurgical generator.
