    A new medium frequency bipolar diathermy instrument offers improved safety and efficacy over older systems. This advanced surgical tool enables precise retinal coagulation with minimal energy, enhancing patient outcomes in ophthalmic procedures.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Surgical Instrumentation
    • Medical Devices

    Background:

    • Previous transvitreal diathermy systems had limitations in safety and effectiveness.
    • Inadequate performance of older diathermy technology necessitated advancements.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel, safer medium frequency bipolar diathermy instrument.
    • To address the drawbacks associated with existing transvitreal diathermy systems.

    Main Methods:

    • Development and presentation of a 1.25 MHz medium frequency bipolar diathermy instrument.
    • Evaluation of the instrument's performance in achieving retinal surface coagulation.

    Main Results:

    • The new instrument demonstrates enhanced safety compared to previous systems.
