ABSTRACT:
A self contained disposable cauterizing system for use in cauterizing benign mucous membrane ulcerations, lacerations or fissures. The system includes a swab having an elongated handle with an absorbent swabbing tip on one end of said handle and with a coating of silver nitrate applied to the opposite end of said handle, an elongated flexible plastic tube and matching cap and a frangible ampoule filled with topical anesthetic, which ampoule is fittable in the plastic tube. In use, the portion of the tube where the ampoule is located is squeezed by the physician user, fracturing the ampoule and allowing the topical anesthetic to be absorbed by the absorbent swab tip. The swab is then withdrawn from the tube after the tube cap is removed, with the topical anesthetic end of the swab being applied to the ulceration, laceration or fissure to render the area insensitive to pain and silver nitrate is thereafter applied from the opposite end of the swab to the affected area for cauterization.
