ABSTRACT:
An electrosurgical coagulator (10) has a hollow elongate tube (20), insulation material (30) covering a major portion of the tube (20), a handle (40) of molding material covering a proximal section of the tube (20) and insulation material (30), a power cord (50) electrically connected to the tube (20), and a contact pin (52) terminating the power cord (50) for attachment to an external power supply (60). The tube (20), insulation (30), and handle (40) are coaxial; the handle (40) extends furthest proximally and terminates in a fitting (42) that is engageable with an external suction source (70). The tube (20) has a distal portion (22) for contacting to bleeding tissue and coagulating the same, the distal portion being beveled and having a notch (25) for superior resolution and ease of positioning, clog prevention, and ease of cleaning.
