Select a ball or heavy wire electrode
Locate the bleeder
After have wiped the excess blood from the area, contact lightly the bleeder before activating the electrode
Stop the electrode activation as soon as the tissue blanches to avoid tissue damage.
1.6 BIPOLAR CUTTING
The bipolar cutting is the sectioning of the biological tissue caused by the passing of high density, high frequency current
concentrated by the two tips of the forceps.
When the high frequency current is applied to the tissue between the two tips of the forceps, it creates intense molecular
heat in the cell so that the cell explodes. Lower voltage than in the monopolar cutting is provided for bipolar cutting so that
less sparking and damage of adjacent tissue sites is acheived.
DIATERMO MB380
and
DIATERMO MB240
allows cutting with pure sine wave without any modulation which cuts
very smoothly and produces the least thermal effect.
1.7 BIPOLAR COAGULATION
Bipolar coagulation is the hemostasis of small blood vessel of the bodily tissue between the two tips of the forceps.
When the current density is reduced the effect is to dry out the surface cells, without deep penetration, resulting in
coagulation. These coagulate surface cells then serve as a layer of insulation, preventing heat from successive applications of
current from penetrating too deeply.
DIATERMO MB380
and
DIATERMO MB240
allows coagulation with modulation producing blend wave form with
sufficient crest-factors to obtain the thermal effect and consequent hemostatic effect that needs in the practice, with
moderately low voltage to limit the lateral spread of thermal damage and the risk of interference with electronic circuits
simultaneously connected to the patient.
