Ultravision Technology provides surgical smoke control solutions that eliminate bioaerosols at the source, improving visualization and safety in both open and laparoscopic procedures. Its IonPencil is a slimline diathermy tool that silently suppresses smoke without bulky evacuators, while the Ultravision2 system maintains a stable pneumoperitoneum and reduces patient carbon‑dioxide exposure during minimally invasive surgery. The technology integrates real‑time performance data to streamline workflow and enhance operating‑room ergonomics.

Problem
Surgical smoke and aerosolized bioaerosols generated during open and laparoscopic procedures obscure the visual field, increase CO₂ consumption, and expose operating‑room staff and patients to health risks. Conventional smoke evacuators are bulky, noisy, require continuous gas flow, and often fail to fully capture particles at the source.
Solution
Ultravision Technology provides a point‑of‑creation smoke‑control system that eliminates surgical smoke without extracting gas from the abdomen. The IonPencil, a slim, silent diathermy instrument, generates electrostatic precipitation to charge and capture smoke particles directly at the tissue site. In laparoscopic cases the Ultravision generator maintains a stable pneumoperitoneum while drastically reducing CO₂ flow, enabling low‑pressure surgery. The system delivers up to 23‑times better bioaerosol suppression than traditional evacuators, preserving a continuously clear visual field and reducing workflow interruptions such as camera cleaning and pauses for smoke clearance.
Target Audience
Primary customers are hospitals and surgical centers performing open and laparoscopic procedures, including surgeons, OR nurses, and administrators seeking improved smoke management, visualization, and reduced CO₂ usage.
