Lesion creating device pleural adhesions

摘要

The device is a flexible monopolar electrode comprising a handle covered with an insulating material that is free from it a working part arranged on its end a working element and installed on the opposite to the working end of the device to connect to the electrosurgical devices, the operating element is designed as a flat L-shaped rectangular hook without cutting edges is blunt, wherein the ratio of the width to the length of the working part is 2: 1-2.5: 1, and the thickness to width - 1: 2-1: 3. Due to the possibility to bend the handle tool at any angle and design of the working part of the device allows to increase thoracocautery efficiency, which is expressed in the maximum possible extent destruction adhesions parietal and visceral pleura in different parts of a single puncture of the chest, which minimizes its trauma and significantly reduces the risk of infection of the pleural cavity and the development of adhesions that occurs when performing multiple punctures thorax. And burnout adhesions quality and safety is enhanced by optimally comfortable position of the working portion of the tool to the axis of adhesions and improve visibility for manipulation.
