Megadyne Expands Product Line with Patient Return Electrode with Longer Cable for Easier Use in the Operating Room & Electrosurgical Pencil with Foot Control
Draper, Utah (PRWEB) October 02, 2013 -- Megadyne Medical Products, a leading developer, manufacturer and supplier of electrosurgical products, today released a new adult monitoring patient return electrode featuring a 5 meter long cable designed for easier use in operating room settings featuring surgical booms. These single-use pads provide an easy, cost-effective option for patient safety during electrosurgery. The Company also announced the release of a foot control pencil, featuring a stainless steel electrode and holster, with a 10 foot cord, providing exceptional flexibility for electrosurgery procedures.
“With the growing number of operating rooms being designed with surgical booms and additional technology, it was a natural decision to offer our customers the longer cord design,” said Melissa Fischer, RN, MSN, CNOR and Clinical Specialist and Marketing Manager for Megadyne. “Megadyne is constantly aware of the quality, form and functions of our products and is dedicated to providing the safest, highest quality products.”
Available now, Megadyne’s disposable patient return electrodes are designed with flexible foam backing, preventing creasing and maintaining integrity for easy removal from the patient. The patient return electrodes also feature soft hydrogel, allowing the pad to maintain complete contact over the entire pad area and minimizing ‘hotspots’ to ensure patient safety. The hydrogel also keeps pad temperature low during use.
Also immediately available, Megadyne has launched the FC30H foot control pencil. Megadyne’s electrosurgical pencils are ergonomic, featuring a lightweight design that is comfortable and minimizes fatigue, with a “memory-free” flexible cord for easier handling of the pencil. As with all Megadyne products, safety is vital, and this product is no different.
“By adding the foot switch to our popular electrosurgical pencil line, we further expand the options available to surgeons and their personal preferences,” added Fischer.
Megadyne offers a complete line of electrosurgical pencils in both E-Z Clean® and stainless steel tips. Also released with this announcement is a new TC100 stainless steel tip cleaner, a durable scratch pad that further boadens Megadyne’s electrosurgical accessory solution offering.
