By applying a coat of electrolytic solution to the surface of the wood, the resistance of the surface drops considerably. Two electrodes are then placed on the wood and a high voltage is passed across them.

Held in the hand to show scale is a "hand-piece" detachable sharp-pointed unipolar application electrode. A hyfrecator is a low-powered medical apparatus used in electrosurgery on conscious patients, usually in an office setting.

A Buccal Mucosal Bleeding Time test can help to confirm slow clotting – a standardized tool makes a small incision in your dog’s gums, and your vet times how long it takes to stop bleeding.
