- Integra Selector Kit Sterile single use device A bi-lumen, sterile single use accessory used for the Selector Integra Ultrasonic Surgical Aspirator system. One of the tubing lumen transmits irrigation fluid from the console to the handpiece of the system, and the other tubing lumen transmits aspirated fluid and tissue back to the system console. The aspirator is intended to be used to facilitate the removal of cellular and other unwanted soft tissue. The system provides selective tissue disintegration with simultaneous irrigation and aspiration. The system has been designed for use by surgeons in the areas of neurosurgery and gastroenterology including laparoscopic procedures. Its use in other procedures is regarded as experimental and is thus subjecto to appropriate local regulatory approval
