  2. Hyfrecator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyfrecator

    The amount of output power is adjustable, and the device is equipped with different tips, electrodes and forceps, depending on the electrosurgical requirement. Unlike other types of electrosurgery, the hyfrecator does not employ a dispersive electrode pad that is attached to the patient in an area not being treated, and that leads back to the ...

  3. Electrosurgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrosurgery

    (Note that frequency of the alternating electric current is an inverse of the duration of a single cycle). To minimize the effects of muscle and neural stimulation, electrosurgical equipment typically operates in the radio frequency (RF) range of 100 kHz to 5 MHz.

    Diathermy equipment typically operates in the short-wave radio frequency (range 1–100 MHz) or microwave energy (range 434–915 MHz). [citation needed] Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF) is a medical treatment that purportedly helps to heal bone tissue reported in a recent NASA study. This method usually employs electromagnetic ...

    An electrosurgical unit (ESU) uses high currents (e.g. 10 amperes) at high frequency (e.g. 500 kHz) with various schemes of amplitude modulation to cut or coagulate; As a treatment for fibrillation or irregular heart rhythms: see Defibrillation and Cardioversion; As a method of pain relief: see Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS)

  6. Diathermy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diathermy

    Electrosurgery and surgical diathermy involve the use of high-frequency A.C. electric current in surgery as either a cutting modality, or else to cauterize small blood vessels to stop bleeding. This technique induces localized tissue burning and damage, the zone of which is controlled by the frequency and power of the device.

    High frequency wands produce argon and/or neon gas electrodes. “Argon gas is a violet light that is fabulous for oily and acne-prone skin types,” explains Glasgow. “It kills P. acne bacteria ...

  8. Harmonic scalpel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_scalpel

    A harmonic scalpel cuts via vibration. The scalpel surface itself cuts through tissue by vibrating in the range of 55,500 Hz. The high frequency vibration of tissue molecules generates stress and friction in tissue, which generates heat and causes protein denaturation.
