BM-780 II - Radiofrequency Generator
The radiofrequency generator BM-780 II is the ideal unit for small interventions in the ENT office and clinic, for interventions in plastic surgery and dermatology.
FAQ
Can I use the BM-780 II for all kinds of surgical interventions?
The radiofrequency unit has been developed for small surgical interventions in ENT, plastic surgery and dermatology. Chief performance criteria are precision and tissue protection.
In addition to all the standard options available in these areas, the unit offers extra application features such as RaVoR™ (radiofrequency volume reduction) of the soft palate, the lingual tonsils and for nasal hypertrophy.
Working "under water" as for instance for prostate resections in urology require an output much higher than the 70 or 80 watts available with the BM-780 II.
What is the power of the BM-780 II?
The radiofrequency unit BM-780 II has 80 watts in monopolar cut mode I, 70 watts in monopolar cut mode II as well as in monopolar contact coagulation mode, and 60 watts in monopolar spray coagulation mode.
The radiofrequency unit offers 70 watts in bipolar coagulation mode.
Does RaVoR™ have temperature control?
Temperature control is not needed. With RaVoR™ just the right amount of radiofrequency is applied to heat the tissue and create a lesion, but not too much to desiccate the tissue. The OR protocol lists the application time according to the defined intensity on the unit. For your safety our radiofrequency generator comes with an AutoRF™ function, which adjusts the power output automatically downwards in case of increased tissue resistance in order to prevent undesired tissue desiccation in the surgery area, and thus ensures best surgical results without unwanted tissue damage.
Does the unit automatically turn off when the power is too high?
AutoRF™ will automatically adjust and cut back the power output in case of increased tissue resistance. However, when the power setting chosen is too high or too low, undesired effects may occur. For this reason it is important to adhere to the specifications mentioned in our procedure guidelines. These have been carefully tested and compiled in close cooperation with our clinical partners to achieve the best possible results without a visual feedback function of the unit.
What are the safety features of the radiofrequency unit BM-780 II?
The most important safety function of the radiofrequency unit BM-780 II is the AutoRF™ system, which automatically controls the tissue condition and adjusts the power output accordingly. Digitalized configuration drastically reduces the potential error ratio of the unit. Additional safety features include split patient plates and an easy-to-use, logical control interface. The BM-780 II is a state-of-the-art electrosurgical unit offering a user logic that is both clear and prevents application errors.
