MIDBAND™

Low-pressure adjustable gastric band, made in France and designed for qualified bariatric surgeons.

Bariatric surgery is performed within a multidisciplinary care pathway. MID develops and manufactures devices used by qualified healthcare professionals for several established procedures.

Adjustable gastric banding

MIDBAND™ is an implantable, adjustable and reversible gastric band. Its low-pressure design combines medical-grade silicone with the MIDPORT™ titanium implantable port. The maximum fill volume is 7 cc and the required trocar is 12 mm.

Sleeve gastrectomy

MIDSLEEVE™ is an orogastric calibration tube with a 360° balloon up to 75 ml. It is designed to support precise and reproducible calibration during sleeve gastrectomy and can be connected to suction for leak testing after stapling.

Gastric bypass

MIDCAL™ is a medical-grade silicone calibration ring available in four sizes: 65, 70, 75 and 80 mm. It helps calibrate the gastric pouch and is a fixed, non-adjustable ring after placement. MID-TUBE™ and MIDSOND support calibration needs in bariatric procedures.

Quality and clinical collaboration

MID has been designing and manufacturing in France since 1999. Its quality system is certified to ISO 13485, with CE MDR and international regulatory pathways listed in the brief. The R&D department works through Validation and Verification procedures from clinical need to concept, industrialisation and market access.

The choice of device depends on the procedure, the surgeon’s technique, the patient pathway and the instructions for use. Product specifications and contraindications must always be reviewed in the applicable IFU at www.mid-ifu.com.
