Electrosurgical Generator with ABC® Technology
Harness the power of premium ESU advanced specialty modes combined with the benefits of CONMED’s latest Argon Beam Coagulation (ABC®) technology.
ABC® Technology reduces carbonization by allowing coagulation directly on the stroma of target tissue. This results in rapid and effective hemostasis1 that reduces postoperative blood loss.2,3 This cost-effective advanced energy modality creates a more homogenous eschar4,5 by delivering a low depth of coagulation and decreased thermal damage to tissue.1 Argon gas enables focused, precise delivery of RF energy in a uniform stream that is distributed evenly on tissue.
Insulated, malleable, and bendable to 60°, Bend-a-Beam® is effective for open surgery and use cases on high impedance tissue.
The Triple Option handpiece is designed to save time and cut costs by combining three functions into one tool - monopolar cut, monopolar coag, and ABC® technology. The Single Function handpiece delivers ABC® energy.
Dissecting Electrodes attach to a CONMED ABC® handpiece to convert argon beam coagulation to argon beam dissect, which may provide reduced smoke and less tissue damage. ABC® Laparoscopic Probes are designed to minimize tissue damage, reduce blood loss, and produce less surgical smoke.
