Arthroscopic Edge Energy Generator

ConMed’s Edge™ Bipolar Arthroscopic RF System features bulk tissue removal using the face of the electrode and fine tune sculpting along the edge.  Edge probes feature a unique one-piece tungsten electrode designed to reduce the risk of probe degradation allowing surgeons to aggressively and safely remove bulk tissue. The Edge system offers a wide range of performance benefits ranging from optimized power settings to joint temperature monitoring with every probe in the portfolio.

* Optimized Power Settings for Optimal Convenience and Simplicity– Other systems use unnecessary 9-level power settings that require complicated charts to determine what settings and probes are needed for each procedure.  The Edge® generator automatically detects the bipolar probe upon insertion and optimizes the power levels based on electrode size to efficiently and effectively generate a strong and stable plasma layer.
* Versatile for Both Monopolar and Bipolar– The Edge System provides a versatile choice for facilities as it offers both monopolar and bipolar capabilities in one system.
* Simple, Easy-to-Use Design– With an intuitive touch screen interface, optimized power settings, five versatile probes and automatic power level adjustment, the Edge System is designed to increase OR efficiency. This simplicity makes things easier for surgeons and OR staffers by eliminating the guesswork and complication of other ablation systems.
* Automatic Scope Detection– When the system detects the presence of a very low impedance object like an arthroscope, the flow of energy is automatically stopped until the probe is a safe distance from the detected object. This safety feature is compliant with the latest IEC 60601 third editions standards.
