COR-KNOT®
In cardiac surgery, every second matters – and so does every suture. The Cor-Knot® device helps surgeons close with speed, precision, and consistency. By automating the fastening and trimming of sutures, it reduces time under anaesthesia and supports a secure, reliable seal – giving patients the best possible start to recovery.
- Designed to replace traditional hand-tied knots with a titanium fastener
- Used in cardiac procedures where precision and speed are critical
- Trusted by leading cardiac surgeons worldwide
For surgeons, Cor-Knot® removes the strain and variability of hand-tying knots – especially in hard-to-reach areas. It improves access, enhances consistency, and streamlines procedures. For patients, that means shorter surgeries, fewer risks, and a smoother path to healing.
Our values drive everything we do. We learn and share to empower surgical teams with the knowledge and confidence to use tools like Cor-Knot® effectively. We make it happen by providing hands-on support and responsive service exactly when it’s needed. And we go beyond expectations by selecting devices that don’t just perform – they truly make a difference in every patient’s healing journey.
