ABSTRACT:
An electric field concentrated electrosurgical electrode (e.g., blade, forceps or the like) wherein there is provided a conducting member having an edge that is at least partly sharpened and coated over most of its surface with electrical insulating non-stick material so as to produce a an instrument having a slightly projecting uncoated region to produce a highly concentrated electric field and a highly concentrated transfer of electric energy thereacross when employed in an severing mode but energy transfer by capacitive coupling when employed in a coagulating mode.
