ABSTRACT:
As electrosurgical instrument that has characteristics especially attractive in performing bipolar electrosurgery. It is believed that the relatively high current densities typically employed in using bipolar instruments result in very high incidents of sticking and other undesired characteristics when such instruments are coated with conventional coatings. A nickel-free high chromium content composite coating that manifests undesired characteristics when employed with monopolar electrosurgical implements has unexpectedly been discovered to embody very desirable characteristics when employed with bipolar instruments and is therefore efficaciously employed as a coating on bipolar implements.
