Megadyne today announced a new range of E-Z Clean® Modified Electrodes featuring enhanced polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) insulation, designed to further minimize potential thermal injuries during electrosurgery.   The enhanced PTFE insulation resists temperatures up to 700 degrees Fahrenheit and reduces the splitting, cracking and peeling often seen on electrodes without PTFE insulation.

Compatible with all standard hand pieces, the new Modified Electrodes are designed specifically for monopolar electrosurgery.   Each Modified Electrode features Megadyne's trademarked and proprietary Green E-Z Clean PTFE coating to save surgeons time.   Compared to stainless steel tips that require stopping during procedures to repeatedly scrape off eschar build-up, Megadyne's non-stick E-Z Clean PTFE green tips resist eschar build up and result in fewer interruptions during procedures.

"Our core area of focus remains the research and innovation of safe surgical technologies that help to protect patients during the 35 million surgical procedures performed in the United States each year while simultaneously providing surgeons with the highest quality electrosurgery products in the market," said Michael Hintze, Vice President of Marketing at Megadyne.  "These new PTFE insulated electrodes continue our tradition of offering safe, innovative, and cost-effective products to today's ORs."

The new Modified Electrodes are available in four lengths and are also available on Megadyne's Rocker Switch and Button Switch Electrosurgical hand pieces:

• E-Z Clean 2.5" electrode (0012M)
• E-Z Clean 2.75" electrode (0012AM)
