DEVICE: MediMax Tech (00817325023436)

A mains electricity (AC-powered) assembly of devices intended to capture smoke generated during open surgical procedures involving tissue ablation (e.g., laser surgery, electrocautery, electrosurgical diathermy device). It captures the plume (smoke composed of carbonized cell fragments, water vapour, and hydrocarbons from vaporized tissue) near its origin before it becomes dispersed and causes surgical staff respiratory exposure. It consists of a capture tube or wand and four elements to evacuate smoke: user interface, filters, suction source, and exhaust. The system may be mobile (on wheels) and used during closed surgical procedures (e.g., endoscopy, laparoscopy) to clear the view. See also: Gas/fume evacuation system; Anaesthetic gas scavenging unit; Suction system filter, plume particulate; Orthopaedic cement fume evacuator; Surgical plume evacuation system tube

A rigid device consisting of combined electrosurgical handpiece and monopolar electrode intended to deliver electrosurgical current from a system generator directly to tissues for cutting/coagulation during an open surgical procedure. It is available in a variety of forms (e.g., pen, pistol-shaped forceps, pincer-shaped forceps, scissors) and may also include irrigation, aspiration, lavage and/or surgical plume (smoke) evacuation features to support its primary electrosurgical function. This is a reusable device.
