Frequently asked questions
Which surgical specialties use these forceps?
These ConMed Bipolar Forceps are specifically designed for high-precision surgical environments requiring fine coagulation control. They are primarily intended for use in the following specialties:
- Neurosurgical procedures
- Ophthalmic procedures
- Plastic and reconstructive surgery
The highly accurate 0.5 mm Hardy Micro Tips and bayonet design facilitate the precise manipulation necessary for these delicate applications.
How many times can these reusable forceps be used?
The ConMed Bipolar Forceps are designed to be reusable and are autoclavable. However, the manufacturer’s warranty is limited to 90 days or 20 repeated uses, whichever occurs first. Please note that cold sterilization methods may damage the insulating material.
What is the size of the Hardy Micro Tips on these bipolar forceps?
The ConMed Bipolar Forceps feature Hardy Micro Tips with a size of 0.5 mm, allowing for pinpoint accuracy during delicate surgical procedures.
What accessories are needed for operation?
The ConMed Bipolar Forceps must be used in conjunction with the Hyfrecator 2000 electrosurgical system.
To ensure proper function and control (coagulation and desiccation), operation mandates the use of two additional components, typically acquired separately:
- A compatible foot switch
- A bipolar cord (model 780911 is referenced)
What is the length of the ConMed Bipolar Forceps?
The ConMed Bipolar Forceps have a length of 8.25 inches (21 cm).
Are these bipolar forceps autoclavable?
Yes, the ConMed Bipolar Forceps are autoclavable for repeated use, which contributes to their economic value.
However, it is crucial to note the following guidelines and limitations:
- They are warranted for a maximum of 20 repeated uses (or 90 days, whichever occurs first).
- Cold sterilization methods should be avoided, as they may compromise the insulating material of the forceps.
What is the maximum voltage for the ConMed Bipolar Forceps?
The ConMed Bipolar Forceps have a maximum voltage of 300V peak.
Does the forceps have a bayonet design with stops?
Yes, the ConMed Bipolar Forceps feature a bayonet design with mechanical stops. This specific structure is engineered for:
- Enhanced Handling: Ensures predictable manipulation and control.
- Precision: Allows for controlled use during delicate surgical maneuvers.
These forceps measure 8.25 inches (21 cm) in length and utilize highly accurate 0.5 mm Hardy Micro Tips for tissue grasping and coagulation.
Are the required foot switch and bipolar cord included?
No, the necessary operational accessories, including the foot switch and the required bipolar cord (reference model 780911), are not included with the forceps.
This purchase only provides the ConMed Bipolar Forceps (Hardy Micro Tips) and its specific connector cable assembly. The foot switch and bipolar cord must be acquired separately to operate the instrument with the Hyfrecator 2000 system.
Do these forceps offer precise control?
The ConMed Bipolar Forceps are designed for precise desiccation and coagulation control during surgical procedures. Their 0.5 mm Hardy Micro Tips allow for very fine and targeted coagulation, ensuring accuracy.
