Deroyal 88-001000 - Cord Bipolar 10/CS

Deroyal 88-001000 - Cord Bipolar 10/CS

The Deroyal 88-001000 - Cord Bipolar is a specialized medical accessory designed for use with bipolar electrosurgical instruments. It serves as a connector between the electrosurgical unit (ESU) and the bipolar instrument, enabling precise delivery of electrical energy for tissue coagulation and cutting in surgical procedures. This cord is a crucial component in surgeries where bipolar electrosurgery is employed, allowing for controlled and targeted electrical currents between two electrodes for safer and more effective results.

Product Overview

The Deroyal 88-001000 Bipolar Cord is used to connect bipolar surgical instruments to the electrosurgical generator. It is an essential tool in surgeries requiring electrosurgical techniques, where precise control of electrical energy is necessary to coagulate or cut tissues without damaging surrounding areas. Bipolar electrosurgery is commonly used in delicate surgeries such as neurosurgery, ophthalmology, and gynecological procedures.

Product Characteristics

Design Features

• Bipolar Functionality: Unlike monopolar electrosurgery, which requires a grounding pad, the bipolar system uses two electrodes, allowing for localized energy delivery between the tips of the bipolar instrument. The cord facilitates this by connecting the instrument to the electrosurgical unit.
• Durable Construction: The cord is designed to withstand the demands of the operating room, ensuring reliable performance during critical procedures.
• Compatibility: The Deroyal 88-001000 Cord is compatible with a wide range of bipolar electrosurgical instruments, making it versatile and suitable for various types of surgeries.
• Safe and Controlled Energy Delivery: The cord ensures that electrical energy is delivered only between the two electrodes of the bipolar instrument, reducing the risk of accidental burns or damage to surrounding tissues.

Purpose and Use in Medical Settings

The Deroyal 88-001000 Bipolar Cord is used in surgical procedures that require electrosurgery for tissue coagulation and cutting. It is particularly valuable in surgeries where precision is essential, as the bipolar system allows for more controlled energy delivery compared to monopolar electrosurgery. The cord is commonly used in neurosurgery, ENT (ear, nose, throat) surgeries, gynecological procedures, and other specialties where delicate tissue manipulation is required.

Key Applications:

• Tissue Coagulation: The bipolar cord facilitates the use of electrosurgery to coagulate (stop bleeding) tissues, making it ideal for surgeries involving blood vessels or tissues that require precise energy delivery.
• Tissue Cutting: The cord enables the use of bipolar electrosurgery to cut tissues with precision, minimizing collateral damage to surrounding tissues.
• Specialized Surgeries: Bipolar electrosurgery is commonly used in neurosurgery, ophthalmology, and other fields that require controlled, localized energy delivery to avoid damage to critical structures.

Certifications, Safety Standards, and Regulatory Approvals

• FDA Compliance: The Deroyal 88-001000 Bipolar Cord meets FDA standards for safety and effectiveness in medical devices, ensuring its suitability for use in surgical procedures.
• ISO Standards: The product complies with ISO standards for medical devices, ensuring high-quality manufacturing and reliability in clinical environments.

Comparison with Other Products

The Deroyal 88-001000 Bipolar Cord offers several advantages over other electrosurgical cords:

• Precise Bipolar Energy Delivery: The bipolar functionality allows for localized energy delivery between two electrodes, offering more precision and safety compared to monopolar systems.
• Durable and Reliable: Designed for the operating room environment, this cord offers durability and reliable performance during critical surgeries.
• Wide Compatibility: The cord is compatible with a variety of bipolar instruments, making it a versatile choice for different types of surgeries and electrosurgical units.

Common User Profile

• Surgeons: Surgeons performing delicate procedures, such as in neurosurgery, gynecology, or ophthalmology, rely on the bipolar cord to provide precise energy delivery for tissue coagulation and cutting.
• Operating Room Staff: Nurses and surgical technicians use the bipolar cord as part of the electrosurgical setup, ensuring that it is properly connected and functional during surgery.
• Electrosurgical Technicians: Technicians responsible for maintaining and setting up electrosurgical units ensure that the bipolar cord is properly connected to the instruments and electrosurgical generator.

Typical Scenarios for Use

• Neurosurgery: In delicate brain surgeries, the bipolar cord ensures that electrical energy is delivered precisely to target tissues, reducing the risk of damaging surrounding areas.
• Gynecological Procedures: The cord is used in gynecological surgeries, such as removing cysts or fibroids, where controlled tissue coagulation and cutting are necessary.
• ENT Surgeries: The bipolar cord is commonly used in ENT surgeries for procedures involving delicate structures in the head and neck area.

Best Practices for Using and Maintaining the Product

• Ensure Proper Connection: Before the surgery, ensure that the bipolar cord is securely connected to both the electrosurgical unit and the bipolar instrument to guarantee proper functionality.
• Inspect for Damage: Regularly inspect the cord for any signs of wear or damage. Replace the cord if any damage is found to ensure patient safety and effective performance.
• Follow Sterilization Protocols: Depending on the products specifications, ensure the cord is either properly sterilized between uses or replaced if it is single-use.
