Bovie Resistick II Coated Standard Blade Electrode (12/Box)

Yes, the Bovie Resistick II features a premium PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene) coating applied over the stainless steel blade, specifically engineered to enhance surgical performance and efficiency. This coating provides distinct advantages:

• Resists Eschar Buildup: The non-stick PTFE actively minimizes the accumulation of charred tissue and blood, ensuring the electrode moves more effectively through tissue.
• Easy Maintenance: The coated surface can be quickly wiped clean of debris with only a damp sponge or cloth, significantly saving valuable procedural time.
• Consistent Quality: Bovie ensures optimal, uniform performance by using an advanced ionic backscatter measuring system to precisely control the thickness of the coating during manufacturing.

Yes, the primary function of the PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coating on the stainless steel electrode is to actively resist eschar (charred tissue and blood) buildup, which is common with conventional stainless steel electrodes.

This key feature enhances surgical efficiency by:

• Improving Tissue Manipulation: The electrode can glide more effectively and smoothly through tissue, increasing procedural efficacy.
• Simplifying Cleanup: Debris is easily wiped off the surface using only a damp sponge or cloth, saving valuable procedural time.
• Ensuring Consistent Performance: Bovie employs an ionic backscatter measuring system to control the coating thickness precisely, guaranteeing optimal and reliable performance for every sterile, single-use electrode.

Each box contains 12 sterile electrodes.

No, the Bovie Resistick II Coated Standard Blade Electrodes are strictly designed for single-use only. They are supplied sterile and must be disposed of after each procedure. This ensures maximum patient safety, hygiene, and consistent performance during every surgical case.

Yes, the Bovie Resistick II is engineered for quick and simple cleanup due to its specialized coating.

• PTFE Non-Stick Coating: The electrode is expertly coated with PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene), which provides significant resistance against eschar (burned tissue/blood) buildup compared to standard stainless steel electrodes.
• Effortless Debris Removal: This non-stick surface ensures that accumulated debris and tissue residue can be easily and effectively removed. Cleaning only requires wiping the surface with a damp sponge or cloth, saving valuable time during procedures.
• Optimized Performance: The reduced adherence of tissue allows the electrode to move more efficiently, optimizing surgical workflow and maintaining consistent cutting/coagulation performance.

The Bovie Resistick II Coated Standard Blade Electrodes are offered in two standard lengths, allowing selection based on procedural requirements:

• 2.75 inches (6.99 cm)
• 2.5 inches (6.35 cm)

The PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coating on the Bovie Resistick II electrode significantly improves surgical performance and efficiency by:

• Resisting Eschar Buildup: The non-stick surface actively prevents the adherence of tissue and eschar (charred tissue) much better than conventional stainless steel.
• Enhancing Workflow: By minimizing sticking and tissue drag, the electrode moves more smoothly and effectively through the target area, optimizing the surgical process.
• Simplifying Cleaning: Debris, blood, and tissue residue can be easily and quickly wiped clean using only a damp sponge or cloth, saving valuable time during procedures.

To ensure consistent and optimal results, Bovie precisely monitors the coating thickness using an ionic backscatter measuring system.

Yes, the Bovie Resistick II Electrodes are supplied sterile and are strictly designed for single-use (disposable).

This ensures optimal patient safety and eliminates the risk of cross-contamination.

• Sterility: Supplied factory new and sterile.
• Usage: Intended only for single use before proper disposal.
• Safety Note: These electrodes are also confirmed to be latex-free.

Yes, the Bovie Resistick II Coated Standard Blade Electrodes are manufactured in the USA.

This applies specifically to the available variants: the 2.75” (6.99 cm) and the 2.5” (6.35 cm) length options.

The Bovie Resistick II Coated Standard Blade Electrode is constructed on a stainless steel base.
