COBLATOR II: Precise Tissue Control in Surgery
The COBLATOR II is a surgical system designed for procedures requiring controlled tissue removal while minimizing thermal spread. Its operation is based on coblation technology, a process that uses low-temperature electrosurgical energy to dissociate the molecular bonds of targeted tissues. This mechanism allows for effective ablation while preserving adjacent structures, thereby avoiding collateral damage from excessive heat.
With its two modes of operation, ablation and coagulation, the COBLATOR II meets the demands of various surgical interventions. In ablation mode, the intensity of the plasma effect can be adjusted to modulate the depth and power of tissue removal, depending on the controller setting. The higher the setting, the more the plasma field extends and the thermal spread reduces. In coagulation mode, the device uses bipolar energy to ensure rapid and effective hemostasis through resistive heating of blood vessels.
The COBLATOR II is equipped with a saline flow control system, essential for maintaining plasma efficiency and optimal Wand operation. The device also integrates a suction system that removes tissue debris during the procedure, ensuring better visibility of the surgical field.
Its ergonomic design facilitates integration into operating rooms. The intuitive control interface allows surgeons to quickly adjust parameters, optimizing the course of interventions. The system consists of a main controller, a foot pedal for activating ablation and coagulation functions, and a flow control unit.
The COBLATOR II is compatible with a wide range of Wands, each specifically designed to meet the needs of surgeons in various specialties, including otolaryngology (ENT), orthopedics, and sports medicine. Its flexibility makes it a tool of choice for diverse procedures ranging from tonsil removal to soft tissue repair in joints.
Through its precise settings and treatment parameter control, this device offers practitioners an effective alternative to traditional electrosurgery and laser techniques. It contributes to safer interventions with reduced undesirable thermal effects, thereby promoting optimized post-operative recovery for patients.
