in
nearby
tissue
can
cause
irreversible
damage.
the
movement
of
electrically
charged
ions
in
capacitive
coupled
tissue
can
cause
currents
that
can
heat
tissue
sufficiently
to
produce
burns.
Several
measures
are
used
during
electrosurgical
operations
to
limit
and
minimize
the
risks
of
patient
injury:
-
a
better
and
more
complete
training
for
the
medical
staff;
-
visual
examination
of
the
surgical
instrumentation
(active
electrode,
laparoscope);
-
use
of
disposable
electrodes
(but
the
thinner
insulation
doesn’t
reduce
the
risk
of
breakdown
or
capacitive
coupling);
-
prohibiting
the
use
of
hybrid
(plastic
‐
metal)
cannulas;
-
adopting
bipolar
electro
surgery
(not
‐
versatile,
but
safer,
because
the
necrosis
happen
only
if
there
is
a
long
and
continuous
application
of
the
current).
In
the
HF
electro
surgery
burns
are
a
real
hazard
that
can
be
minimized
by
the
knowledge
of
the
causes
and
especially
if
the
surgeon
is
prepared
against
these.
