ABSTRACT:
A removable shroud for use with an electro-surgical unit pencil is disclosed where the shroud fits over a portion of the external surface of the electrosurgery unit pencil. The removable shroud includes a cylindrical shaped handpiece having an opening therein which provides means for accessing a hand switch contained on the electrosurgery unit pencil when the pencil is positioned within the shroud, a chute located alongside a bottom length of the cylindrical handpiece, and a tapered nozzle located near the distal ends of the cylindrical handpiece and the chute. The interior of the chute opens into the lumen of the cylindrical handpiece near the distal end of the chute and the proximal end of the chute extends beyond the proximal end of the cylindrical handpiece.
