Project/Program Name: Pro Med instruments / DORO Luna Brain Retractor System

Purchase Request/Identification Number:

Estimated Contract Cost (including Options):

Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required

The DORO LUNA® Retractor System is used in neurosurgical applications as a brain tissue retractor and hand support.

It needs to be able to be set up in the sterile field over sterile drapes and can easily and safely be adjusted for optimum skull access. 6 degrees of freedom in shifting and tilting parts or even the whole system guarantee an unobstructed access to the surgical field at any time of the procedure. For retraction purposes, the Flexible Rotary Arms should have capability to be mounted directly to any desired position on the Curves. These arms, in turn, are adaptable with macro-and micro blades of various styles.

Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source or Brand Name

The PMI Luna Retractor provides increased retractor positioning flexibility. PMI Luna can be assembled with 1-4 Luna bars. Each Luna bar and post provides 180 degrees of rotation. The positioning flexibility of the PMI Luna system means each surgeon can create the best retractor set up needed for each surgery. The current Budde Halo system is limited to a single fixed halo. This brand provides a better emergency capability by allowing the system to be placed and removed more efficiently. This will allow the surgeon to operate quickly in an emergency situation, which may improve outcomes. Additionally, this system does not require rep support as the surgeons have used this during training, and in-service training has been performed with the neurosurgery OR nurse and tech. Considering other retractor systems will require additional training and familiarization for the surgeons and OR staff, which may lengthen OR case length, and require additional hours of in-service training. Using this system will allow immediate integration into our current

Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition

Other systems have been researched such as the Greenberg and Budde Halo retractors, which are antiquated, bulky, and do not provide the same capabilities previously mention in Section C.

Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards

No further steps are available at this time because of the nature of the item being procured. If in the future additional and similar procedures provided by other companies are made available to the commercial market, all efforts will be made to provide maximum competition as mandated by federal acquisition regulations.

Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination

I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
