Cua Dong General Hospital: Performing high-efficiency techniques with modern ultrasonic scalpel system
(Baonghean.vn) - In order to provide high-quality medical services to the people, Cua Dong General Hospital has recently invested in the Harmonic Scaple ultrasonic scalpel system - one of the modern ultrasonic wave devices, with many outstanding advantages; eliminating problems caused by monopolar electrosurgery in conventional surgical knives.
High precision, minimizing damage during surgery
Mr. Nguyen Van D. (35 years old, Nghi Loc) had dull lower abdominal pain, digestive disorders, recently the pain increased, and difficulty defecating.

According toMaster, Doctor Thai Doan Cong - Head of Surgery Department, Deputy Director of Cua Dong General Hospital,The ultrasonic scalpel device (Harmonic Scapel) has recently been effectively applied in many important medical fields: general surgery, digestive, urology, gynecology, thoracic...
Harmonic Ultrasonic Technology is the leading technology in the use of advanced energy today. Using modern ultrasonic energy, no electric current passes through the patient, eliminating the problems caused by monopolar electrosurgery in conventional surgical knives; Minimizing heat damage spreading to both sides (<1mm) - allowing cutting and hemostasis with high precision, especially necessary near important structures and organs, less smoke, less stickiness.
Ultrasonic scalpel is a cutting tool used in surgery that simultaneously cuts and coagulates tissue. In particular, the device can penetrate thicker tissue layers, stop bleeding better, produce less toxic fumes, and cut more precisely than conventional surgical knives.
As a multifunctional instrument, in addition to cutting and hemostasis, the ultrasonic scalpel can be used to dissect, clamp, cut back in avascular tissue, and punch holes to create holes.
