Monopolar incisions
36
High frequency surgical device
MICROCUT 1 + 2
Spark-controlled incising with
dynamically minimized power
(stronger for MICROCUT 1;
dynamic range determined by
the dosage setting):
Incisions virtually independent
of electrode shape and tissue
properties
POWERCUT 1
Powerful incisions with a low
degree of scabbing:
Incisions in normal or low-ohm
tissues — voltage regulation
POWERCUT 2–4
Adjustable degree of scabbing
as an additional feature com-
pared to POWERCUT 1 — volt-
age regulation
(maximal for POWERCUT 4)
SEALCUT
Incisions with alternate cutting
pulses and coagulation phases
(e.g. for the low-hemorrhage
removal of polyps with a loop
electrode, or for papillotomy)
Monopolar coagulation
Note
When selecting the coagulation mode CONTACTCOAG, the additional
functions supported are displayed as well.
(GN 640)
SOFTCOAG
Gentle, tissue-preserving coag-
ulation, not sinking into the
tissue (e.g. for critical coagula-
tions with resectoscopes and
for use with monopolar endo-
scopic instruments)
Additional functions auto-
COAG off and Vario-function
are not supported
CONTACTCOAG
Coagulation over broad sur-
faces with clamps or forceps;
hemostasis of oozing hemor-
rhaging; cauterization of large
areas of issue (e.g., in tumor
surgery); coagulation of small
surfaces
Additional functions sup-
ported: autoCOAG off, Vario-
function
FORCEDCOAG
Superficial coagulation with
spark formation
Additional functions auto-
COAG off and Vario-function
are not supported
SPRAYCOAG
Surface coagulation through
spark discharge, no contact
between tissue and electrode;
special application: Hemostasis
in difficult-to-access bone
crevices and in parenchyma-
tous tissues;
optimized coagulation is
achieved with supplemental
application of the argon func-
tion
Additional functions auto-
COAG off and Vario-function
are not supported
