Utah Medical Epitome Scalpel Electrodes .2 Scalpel, Fine Wire, Standard 2in Shaft White
Utah Medical's Epitome Scalpel Electrodes are designed to improve electrosurgical results by significantly reducing thermal tissue injury compared to standard blade tips. The Epitome Scalpel Electrodes incorporate Peripheral Plasma Blade (P2B) technology. P2B is a fine wire element at the edge of a non-conductive ceramic core. This focused geometry creates a spark plasma at the blade edge, resulting in clean tissue dissection with minimal thermal injury.
The Epitome Scalpel Electrodes' ceramic blades with heat-resistant and non-conductive properties ensure that electrical energy will not pass through the blades to any tissue which might inadvertently come intp contact with the blades. As a result, less electrical power is required to perform a desired cut, thermal damage in the wound is minimised, and patient recovery times may be improved. With Epitome Scalpel Electrodes, haemostasis is controlled through the selection of loop wire diameter and/or by the mode setting on your electrosurgical generator.
- Peripheral Plasma Blade (P2B) technology enables clean tissue dissection with minimal thermal injury
- Quick and precise cutting through dense breast tissue when performing reduction mammaplasty and mastectomy
- Reduces thermal tissue injury, yet easily dissects fatty tissue without increasing power settings
- Minimises necrotic zone to help reduce circulation complications in skin flaps
- The bendable shaft allows for easy access to IMA with quick, clean performance and minimal thermal injury
