RADIOFREQUENCY COBLATION
WEREWOLF™ Sistem Coblație
A Smith+Nephew coblation generator for ENT surgery and sports medicine — it combines COBLATION technology with FLOW~IQ for controlled excision and coagulation of soft tissue.
Model: Smith+Nephew WEREWOLF
THE TECHNOLOGY
COBLATION + FLOW~IQ — controlled tissue dissection
COBLATION is a dissection process through the formation of a local plasma field, generated by bipolar radiofrequency energy in the presence of saline. Working temperatures are significantly lower than with classic electrocautery, and the zone of collateral thermal damage is reduced.
FLOW~IQ automatically adjusts the saline flow rate according to the tissue type and the energy applied — for consistent performance at every wand and at every stage of the procedure.
- 3 COBLATION modes (Low / Med / High) — power adapted to the tissue
- FLOW~IQ — automatic saline / energy balancing
- Precise excision, with a minimal collateral thermal zone
- VAC mode for monitoring intra-articular fluid
- SCOPE-SENSING — suspends energy when approaching metal
- Compatible with a wide range of wands for ENT and arthroscopy
CARACTERISTICI
Control at your fingertips
-
3 COBLATION modes
Low, Med, High — power adapted to the tissue type, changeable during the procedure.
-
Control at the wand, pedal or touchscreen
Change the mode without interrupting the flow of the procedure.
-
FLOW~IQ Technology
Automatic balancing of saline flow with COBLATION energy.
-
VAC mode
Monitoring intra-articular fluid during arthroscopic procedures.
-
SCOPE-SENSING
Detects proximity to metal and suspends energy delivery for safety.
-
Wide range of wands
PROCISE LW/MLW, REFLEX 55, REFLEX ULTRA SP45 and others.
