Instructions for use: flexible bipolar electrodes
1.4.

Warnings and precautions

- The electrodes must only be used with a recovery peak voltage of max. 500Vp and 60 Watt throughout
both standard cutting and coagulation mode in a 0.9% NaCl solution.
- The electrode tip may remain hot enough to cause burns after current is deactivated.
- Inadvertent activation or movement of the electrode outside the field of vision may result in injury to the
patient.
- Endogenous risk of burns caused by critical current density in the patient's tissue. Probable causes: The
patient has inadvertent contact with electrically conductive parts. In the event of direct contact between skin, HF
cables and electrodes, capacitive currents may lead to burns.
- Exogenous risk of burns caused by inflaming liquids or gases, as well as possible explosions. Probable
causes: inflammation of skin cleansers, disinfectants or anaesthetic gases etc.
- Only activate HF current, if the electrode is in your field of view and in contact with tissue otherwise
excessive heating of the irrigation medium may result and may cause patient injury.
- To minimize the associated health hazards, specially designed smoke evacuation systems should be
used where available and surgical filtration masks donned for all surgical procedures.

Cables

HF cables supplied by Delmont imaging are compatible with all our electrodes. The type of HF generator in use
determines which size of plug the cable should have at the generator end.
2.3.

Generator

Electrical safety tests were conducted in combination with the HF surgical generator ME MB2 by KLS Martin.
Comparable HF-generators can be used in combination with Delmont imaging´s products if it is ensured that
maximum power outputs (max. 500Vp) are not exceeded and the connection with suitable cables is ensured.
Please refer to section «Attached Document» for further information.
An incorrect combination of products can lead to injury for patients, users or third parts as well as
product damage.

3. Reprocessing instructions
