Monopolar
What type of Insulation is used?
PEEK (Polyether ether ketone)
How many handles do we make for the bipolar line?
One
What is the main issue with the 3.5mm diameter tools?
reduced diameter = reduced strength = reduced durability
What does Reposable Mean?
Part Reusable and Part disposable
What type of current is used in electrosurgery?
Alternating current
How many pieces does the instrument disassemble into?
4 pieces
What are the pros of single use bipolar instruments?
New Sharp jaws every time
Fresh insulation every time
If there are performance issues with the 3.5mm, what is the reason that they still may be used?
hey are appealing for cosmetic reasons
What makes our Reposable Line cost effective?
You only have to reprocess the handle so no time is used on assembly or disassembly
How does the electricity flow in monopolar tools?
The electricity flows from the jaws of the tool through the person to a second pole either stuck to them or as a mat underneath them
What makes our instruments cost effective?
All handles and jaw inserts are interchangeable
Replace/ repair components (not entire instrument)
Name 2 patterns for single use instruments of the 4
Maryland
Metz Scissors
Fenestrated Maryland

What makes our 3.5mm handle different from others?
We have built in overload protection.
excessive pressure is absorbed in the spring
The monopolar single use shaft is used in all of this discipline's surgeries for cutting, dissection, mobilization, and coagulation of tissue.
Endoscopic
How does the electricity flow in Bipolar tools?
The electricity flows from one jaw to the other
