Description

Argent Surgical Cautery High Temperature (also known as high frequency electrosurgery) is a medical procedure that uses a high frequency electrical current to cut, coagulate, and cauterize tissue during surgery. It is commonly used in various surgical procedures, such as dermatology, gynecology, and general surgery, to achieve precise and controlled tissue destruction or hemostasis (stopping bleeding). The device used for this procedure is called an electrosurgical unit (ESU) which produces high frequency electrical currents that flow through a hand-held electrode or blade, causing the tissue to heat up and coagulate. This allows the surgeon to cut through tissue while also controlling bleeding and reducing the risk of infection.

  • Ideal for procedures requiring precise homeostasis: cardiovascular, thoracic, occult-plastic, orthopedic and hand surgery procedures
  • Available in a variety of tip configurations and are battery operated with 3V AA batteries
  • Temperature at activation can reach 1,800°F - 2,200°F with a constant burn time of 10 minutes
  • Each cautery includes a protective cover cap for storage and safe disposal
  • Sterile
  • Single Use
  • Disposable

How do High Frequency Electrosurgery work?

High frequency electrosurgery is a technique that uses electricity to cut, coagulate, or vaporize tissue. It works by passing a high frequency electrical current through a thin wire electrode, which heats up and then cuts through tissue with precision.

The basic components of high frequency electrosurgery include a high frequency generator, an active electrode, and a return electrode. The high frequency generator produces an alternating current of 500,000 to 4 million Hz, which is then delivered through the active electrode to the tissue being treated.

As the current passes through the tissue, it creates heat through resistance, which causes the cells in the tissue to vaporize. This vaporization creates a clean cut or coagulates the tissue, stopping any bleeding. The heat generated by the current also seals off any nerve endings, reducing pain and minimizing the risk of infection.

The return electrode, also known as the grounding pad, is placed on the patient's body in a location away from the surgical site. It helps to complete the electrical circuit and allows the current to flow back to the generator.

High frequency electrosurgery has many advantages over traditional surgical methods, as it provides precise and bloodless cutting, minimal damage to surrounding tissue, and faster healing time. It is commonly used in a variety of medical procedures, including dermatology, gynecology, and general surgery.
