In addition, please compare the accessories you receive with the standard accessories listed below. If an item is missing, please notify your CONMED Distributor. To activate your warranty, return the enclosed warranty card to CONMED Corporation within 10 days of receipt of your invoice. - Page 8 2000 Electrosurgery should NEVER be performed in the presence of flammable anesthetics, flammable prep solutions or drapes, oxidizing gases such as Nitrous Oxide (N 2 O), or in oxygen-enriched environments. The risk of igniting flammable gases or other materials is inherent in electrosurgery and cannot be eliminated by device design.
- Page 9 2000 Failure of the unit could result in an unintended increase of output power. When used, the neutral electrode (patient plate) should be reliably attached with the entire surface area in contact with the patient’s body and as close to the operating field as possible. When not in use, the neutral electrode should be disconnected from the Hyfrecator®...

Page 15: Monoterminal With Dispersive Plate Configuration
2000 Monoterminal (Monopolar) with Dispersive Plate Monoterminal applications with a dispersive plate (See Figure 4) are less common than monoterminal applications without a dispersive plate. Here, the high-frequency current starts from either the high or low output terminals, then travels through an electrode to your patient, where it exits through the dispersive patient plate and returns directly to the unit. -
Page 16: Terminology For Procedural Configuration
2000 Section 7 - Terminology for Procedural Configuration Desiccation Desiccation comes from the Latin word “desiccare”, meaning to dry. It is a monoterminal without a dispersive plate technique. The electrode either touches, or is inserted into the tissue. The current evaporates the cellular fluids, blanching the area treated (see Figure 6). -
Page 17: Fulguration
2000 Fulguration Fulguration comes from the Latin word “fulgur”, meaning an act of lightning. It is a monoterminal without a dispersive plate technique where the electrode is held slightly away from the surface being treated (see figure 8), resulting in sparking to the surface. When delicately fulgurating, you must precisely position the point of the active electrode close to the area being treated or the electrical arc may divert to adjacent tissue areas. -
Page 18: Applications
2000 • Application - The two types of coagulation have different effects on tissue. In the first case, the dispersive patient plate deeply draws the current into the tissue. The current efficiently flows through the patient back to the HYFRECATOR® 2000 producing heavy dehydration at the electrode site. Conversely, the use of bipolar forceps during bipolar coagulation produces the least tissue damage with the current remaining on the surface as it flows from one tine to the other. - Page 19 2000 • Lymphangioma: These uncommon tumors may respond to electrodesiccation or fulguration. • Molluscum Contagiosum: These viral lesions resolve quickly with electrodesiccation. • Pyogenic Granuloma: This loose vascular tissue responds well to electrofulguration. • Seborrheic Keratoses: These are perhaps the most common and most cosmetically annoying skin tumors in adults.
- Page 20 2000 • Bowen’s Disease (Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Situ): These lesions respond to the same techniques for basal cell carcinomas. Since these lesions may extend further laterally than they clinically appear, anesthesia should extend one to two centimeters beyond the visible lesions. •...
- Page 21 2000 Dental and Oral Surgery • Apicoectomy: To prepare for an apicoectomy, insert a fine desiccating needle electrode (Cat. No. 705A) slightly beyond the apex of the tooth, then apply the desiccating current to the infected area. The resulting coagulation reduces capillary bleeding and minimizes the spread of infection during later root resection. •...
- Page 22 2000 Otolaryngology • Adenoid - Hypertrophied Remnants: Coagulate small areas under local anesthesia and repeat the process until the hypertrophied areas are completely destroyed. • Epistaxis: Electrodesiccation is very effective for hemostasis. Anesthetize the areas and carefully identify the vessels. Bring the electrode into direct contact with the ruptured arteriole and use a light current. Exercise care to avoid excessive tissue damage that could result in perforation of nasal septum.
