Area of Science:

  • Medical Engineering
  • Laser Technology
  • Surgical Instruments

Background:

  • Traditional CO2 laser therapy instruments have limitations in terms of efficiency and safety.
  • There is a need for advanced medical instruments with improved control and therapeutic outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To introduce a novel, highly efficient, multipurpose carbon dioxide (CO2) laser therapy instrument.
  • To highlight the advanced features and clinical applications of this new device.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a CO2 laser therapy instrument incorporating a switching power supply (SPS) and a red guiding light system.
  • Integration of overcurrent, overvoltage, and high-voltage protective devices for enhanced safety and reliability.
  • Numerical display and pre-set laser power capabilities for precise control.

Main Results:

  • The instrument demonstrates high efficiency, stability, reliability, and low energy loss.
  • Features such as a plastic, non-conductive casing and film switches enhance clinical convenience and safety.
  • The visible guiding light ensures accurate and convenient operation during procedures.
  • The device exhibits effectiveness in both high power density (cutting, coagulation, evaporation) and low power density (anti-inflammatory, analgesic, wound healing) applications.

Conclusions:

  • The developed CO2 laser therapy instrument represents a leading model with significant advantages over existing devices.
  • Its versatility allows for wide application in surgery, gynecology, dermatology, and otolaryngology.
  • The instrument is effective for treating various conditions, including sprains, arthritis, and ulcers, promoting tissue repair and pain relief.
