- A battery-operated, portable cauterization device used for pinpoint hemostasis and tissue removal in various clinical settings
Uses
- Used in minor surgical and dental procedures where precise, high-temperature cauterization is required, including:
- Achieving pinpoint hemostasis
- Evacuation of subungual hematomas
- Controlling diffuse bleeders
- Performing vasectomies
- Sculpting woven grafts
- Trimming gingiva before dental impressions
- Removing unhealthy soft tissue and lesions
Features
- High-Temperature Output:
- The handle and tips reach approximately 2200°F (1200°C) for fast and effective cauterization
- Battery Operated:
- The device uses two standard AA alkaline batteries (included in the kit), making it highly portable and eliminating the need for cords or grounding pads
- Reusable Handle with Replaceable Tips:
- The core handle is reusable, while the various tips can be changed out as needed
- Safety:
- The DC battery power eliminates the risk of electric shock to the patient and allows for safe use on patients with pacemakers
- Portability:
- The penlight-sized handle is lightweight (around 3 oz) and the entire kit comes in a foam-lined plastic case for easy transport and storage
Benefits
- Efficiency:
- The high-temperature capability provides rapid hemostasis, improving procedural efficiency
- Safety:
- The battery operation and lack of a grounding plate significantly enhance safety for both the patient and the clinician, especially in an office setting
- Cost-Effectiveness:
- The "Change-A-Tip" design with a reusable handle and replaceable tips offers an economical solution compared to fully disposable cautery pens
- Versatility:
- The inclusion of different high-temperature tips allows for use in a wide variety of procedures and anatomical locations
- Convenience:
- Its compact, cordless design makes it simple and convenient to use in a range of clinical settings, including exam rooms and operating rooms
