KHIDI: Running mate for a healthier tomorrow in Korea

LIVSMED

LIVSMED is a global innovator in the medical device industry, dedicated to ad­vancing surgical solutions through cutting-edge technology and design. The company has achieved a significant milestone with the development of ‘ArtiSential’, the world’s first multi-joint, multi-degree-of­freedom laparoscopic surgical instrument, which is redefining the standards of mini­mally invasive surgery.

The name ‘ArtiSential’ derives from the combination of “Articulation” and “Essential”, embodying its advanced ar­ticulation capabilities and indispensable role in modern surgical procedures. This groundbreaking device offers intuitive manipulation through wrist-like joints, uniquely designed to replicate the com­plex movements of the human hand. By enabling precise control within confined surgical sites, ArtiSential empowers sur­geons to perform intricate tasks such as incision, suturing, dissection, anastomo­sis, and bloodless resection. Unlike con­ventional straight instruments, its design enhances accessibility to challenging areas, including tumour tissues and deep lesions, ensuring superior surgical out­comes.

Since its market introduction in 2018, ArtiSential has garnered international acclaim for its unparalleled performance and innovation. LIVSMED has rapidly expanded its global footprint, currently operating in 54 countries through three subsidiaries and 32 distributors. The com­pany’s reach spans key markets such as the United States, Japan, the United King­dom, and Australia, reflecting its com­mitment to delivering advanced medical technologies worldwide.

LIVSMED’s contributions to the medi­cal field have been widely recognized. The company was honoured with the South Korean Minister of Health and Welfare Award in 2018 and designated as an innovative medical device company by the Ministry of Health and Welfare in 2020. It was also selected as a pre­unicorn company and achieved the high­est ranking in technology and business evaluations by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups.

Through close collaboration with lead­ing hospitals and comprehensive training programmes, LIVSMED ensures seamless adoption of its technology. As the global healthcare industry evolves, LIVSMED remains steadfast in its mission to pio­neer minimally invasive surgical solutions, driving innovation and enhancing patient care worldwide.
