KEMIS®
Indications:
the knives of the Kemis® range are single-use manual minimally-invasive percutaneous knives, for transient use to cut soft tissues during surgical procedures.
Contraindications:
- Serious vascular deterioration
- Pregnancy
- Acute or chronic local or systemic infections
- Lack of musculo-cutaneous cover, severe vascular deficiency affecting the concerned area
- Allergy to one of the materials used
- Serious problems of non-compliance, mental or neurological disorders, failure to follow post-operative care recommendations

Kemis Knife Range
The Kemis® knife range currently consists of two different knives. Each of them have been specifically designed to treat a large number of applications whilst preserving the surrounding soft tissues:
KEMIS H3
KEMIS H1
Ergonomically Enhanced Instruments
- Ergonomic design, upper and lower curves designed for reducing the risk of injury of the anatomical structures when inserting the knife.
- End tip designed to protect surrounding anatomical structures from the cutting edge of the blade, thus reducing the risks of unintentional injuries.
A Mini-Invasive Technique
- Small incision (7 to 15 mm for Kemis H3 and 3 to 5 mm for Kemis H1) resulting in smaller scar compared to a surgery performed using a scalpel.
- Possibility of visual monitoring by ultrasound.
A Mini-Invasive Technique
- Ready to use for surgery.
- Sterile to minimize the risks of contamination.
