ConMed Bend-A-Beam Single Function Malleable ABC Hand Control Handpiece (10/Box)

Yes, the ConMed Bend-A-Beam Handpiece is engineered for highly precise coagulation using Argon Beam Coagulation (ABC) technology. This system delivers focused, controlled energy that is generally superior to traditional spray coagulation methods.

Precision and control are significantly enhanced by several key product features:

• Malleable Design: The handpiece features a shaft that is malleable up to 60 degrees, allowing surgeons to improve surgical access and precisely target difficult or remote anatomical sites.
• Enhanced Visualization: The argon gas actively helps clear pooled blood and minimizes the smoke plume and tissue carbonization by displacing oxygen. This results in a much clearer visual field, which is crucial for accurate energy delivery.
• Tissue Versatility: It provides effective coagulation performance even on high impedance tissues, such as bone, ensuring reliable results across various tissue types.

No, the ConMed Bend-A-Beam handpiece is intended for single use only. It is supplied sterile and must be disposed of after one surgical procedure to maintain safety and efficacy.

Yes, the ConMed Bend-A-Beam handpiece is designed for seamless integration with the ConMed System 7550 Electrosurgical Generator.

This single-use, sterile handpiece delivers Argon Beam Coagulation (ABC), requiring it to be paired with the generator model that supports this specific functionality.

Key compatibility specifications:

• Required Generator Model: System 7550 Electrosurgical Generator with Argon Beam Coagulation
• Required Part Number: #60-7550-120
• Cord Length: The device features a generous 10-foot (3 m) cord, providing ample reach and flexibility during surgical procedures.

The malleable shaft of the ConMed Bend-A-Beam Handpiece is a key feature for surgical maneuverability. It allows the shaft to be manually bent up to 60 degrees. This capability significantly improves surgical access and placement of the tip for Argon Beam Coagulation (ABC) delivery in remote or difficult-to-reach anatomical locations.

Yes, the ConMed Bend-A-Beam Handpiece is offered in three distinct surgical lengths to optimize versatility and access during Argon Beam Coagulation (ABC) procedures. This selection helps surgeons reach remote or challenging anatomical locations.

The available lengths are:

• 3 inches (7.6 cm)
• 6 inches (15.2 cm)
• 9 inches (22.8 cm)

All options feature a malleable shaft that can be manually adjusted up to 60 degrees for superior maneuverability, and include a 10-foot (3 meter) cord.

The ConMed Bend-A-Beam Handpieces are packaged for convenience and adherence to infection control protocols. They are sold in quantities of 10 per box. Each handpiece is supplied sterile and is strictly designated for single-use only.

The handpiece cord measures 10 feet (3 meters) in length. This generous measurement provides the necessary operational reach and flexibility required for connecting the handpiece to the compatible System 7550 Electrosurgical Generator during procedures.

Other critical features that enhance surgical access include:

• Exceptional Malleability: The shaft is designed to be bent up to 60 degrees, allowing surgeons improved access to remote or anatomically challenging surgical sites.
• Intended Use: This specialized tool is designed for open surgical procedures requiring precise Argon Beam Coagulation (ABC) and is not intended for laparoscopic use.
• Safety: The unit is supplied sterile and is designated for single use.

Yes, the ConMed Bend-A-Beam handpiece significantly improves surgical visualization through the use of Argon Beam Coagulation (ABC).

Argon gas optimizes the operative field, ensuring a consistently clearer and unobstructed view, by:

• Minimizing Smoke Plume and Carbonization: Argon gas displaces oxygen at the surgical site, which dramatically reduces tissue carbonization and the resulting smoke plume.
• Clearing the Field: The gas actively assists in clearing pooled blood from the surgical area.
• Reducing Blood Loss: Its precise, non-contact coagulation capabilities effectively manage bleeding.

These factors collectively reduce surgeon effort and enhance procedural safety by improving visibility.

Yes, the ConMed Bend-A-Beam Hand Control Handpiece is supplied sterile for immediate, safe use in surgical procedures. Please note that this product is intended for single-use only.

No, the ConMed Bend-A-Beam handpiece is not intended for laparoscopic use. This accessory is specifically designed for use in open surgical procedures requiring precise, non-contact Argon Beam Coagulation.
