Encision’s active
electrode monitoring is the only technology
on the market that continuously shields and monitors monopolar
laparoscopic instruments during surgery
to prevent stray energy burns due to insulation
failure and capacitive
coupling that can cause unintended injury
to patients. AEM instruments deliver all of the electrosurgical
energy at the surgeon’s
instrument tip, taking the concern away from these inherent
patient risks during laparoscopic
surgery. AEM laparoscopic instruments are fail-safe,
cost-effective and typically transparent to the surgeon,
requiring no change in clinical practice or surgical technique.
Shielded and Monitored
to Prevent Stray Energy Burns
Whereas conventional instruments are simply
a conductive element with a layer of insulation coating,
AEM Laparoscopic Instruments incorporate a unique layered
design with a protective shield that provides a neutral return
path for capacitively coupled energy and protection from
insulation failure. Therefore, the integrity of the instrument
is continuously monitored during surgery. This technology
acts much like a third-wire ground in standard electrical
cords. |

The AEM® product line includes
most of the standard shapes, sizes, styles and functionality
as conventional instruments but with patented shielding and
monitoring technology integrated into the design. Encision’s
AEM® laparoscopic instruments are available in the following
styles:
- Fixed-tip Electrodes – Spatulas, J-hooks,
L-diamonds
- Articulating Instruments – Graspers & Dissectors
- Scissors – Reusable & Disposable
- Suction-Irrigation Electrodes (SIE) – for
Bard-Davol, Applied, Allegiance, Stryker, and Cabot Trumpet
Valves
AEM® laparoscopic
instruments are only available through Encision. |
