ICC 80: Precision and Safety for Cutting and Coagulation in Electrosurgery
The Erbe ICC 80 is a high-frequency surgical unit designed to ensure consistent performance in tissue cutting and coagulation. With its automatic control of HF voltage, it guarantees stable and reproducible execution of surgical procedures, regardless of tissue resistance variations. Its compact design and ergonomic configuration allow for optimized use in the operating room while providing ease of handling for practitioners.
Equipped with multiple operating modes, the ICC 80 adapts to the specific needs of surgical interventions. In cutting mode, it automatically adjusts power based on tissue type to achieve clean and precise results. Two cutting effects are available, with adjustable coagulation levels to control hemostasis during incision. The integrated power regulation prevents thermal excess, thus reducing the risk of unintended damage to surrounding tissues.
In terms of coagulation, several options are offered. Soft coagulation allows optimal control by avoiding carbonization and tissue adhesion to the electrode. Forced coagulation promotes rapid hemostasis with targeted energy diffusion, while bipolar coagulation is used for high-precision work, minimizing electrical arcs and collateral damage. Each mode can be activated via manual control or foot pedal, ensuring intuitive and smooth handling for the surgeon.
Safety is a central aspect of the ICC 80's operation. The device is equipped with an automatic monitoring system for neutral electrode contact, detecting any connection or placement anomalies on the patient. In case of an issue, an audible and visual signal immediately alerts the user, preventing any unsecured activation of the device.
A performance test is conducted each time the device is powered on to check the status of components and detect potential errors before the intervention begins. The ICC 80 also features an automatic shut-off function in case of prolonged activation, thereby limiting risks associated with handling errors.
The device is designed to integrate seamlessly into hospital and surgical environments. Its adaptable power supply allows it to operate across multiple voltage ranges, ensuring compatibility with various electrical standards. It can be used with a variety of electrodes and accessories, making its application range particularly broad.
The digital display control screen provides clear readings of settings, facilitating real-time parameter adjustments. Dedicated connectors for monopolar and bipolar instruments enable quick and secure connections, enhancing the efficiency of interventions.
The ICC 80 meets stringent standards in electrosurgery and medical safety, ensuring optimal protection for patients and medical staff. Its components are tested and calibrated to guarantee stable long-term performance, with reduced maintenance and simplified upkeep.
Its robust chassis and thoughtful design make it a reliable device capable of withstanding regular use in medical settings. These characteristics make the ICC 80 an essential piece of equipment for healthcare facilities seeking a high-performance and secure device for surgical interventions requiring high-frequency use.
