Neutral (Dispersive) Electrodes for Electrosurgery
Modern electrosurgery involves a variety of specialized equipment that significantly improves the quality and efficiency of surgical procedures. Among the most in-demand devices are electrosurgical units. When operating in monopolar mode, passive electrodes are required. You can buy such accessories for electrosurgical systems in Ukraine through our online store. We offer products from one of the leading manufacturers under favorable conditions.
Why Choosing the Right Passive Electrode for Electrosurgical Units Matters
The success of surgical outcomes—and thus patient safety and staff protection—greatly depends on the correct choice and use of these electrodes. In our online store, you can order certified passive electrodes for electrosurgery with a guarantee of authenticity and under favorable conditions, as we operate as an official platform for the manufacturer. Modern options include metal or rubber, reusable or disposable, with cable or wireless configurations, and designs for both adult and pediatric patients. However, the most popular products in our catalog are universal-type passive electrodes for HF electrosurgical units.
What Is a Passive Electrode for HF Electrosurgery?
This component is part of the electrical circuit in electrosurgical systems when operating in monopolar mode. In such cases, the electrical discharge flows from the active electrode through the patient's tissues toward the neutral (passive) electrode, which must be connected to the generator. This completes the circuit. Choosing the proper passive electrode ensures safe operating conditions for both the patient and surgeon. Otherwise, tissue damage may occur due to high temperatures or electrical current.
How to Choose and Purchase a Neutral Electrode
Several key factors should be considered when selecting neutral electrodes. At a minimum, the electrode must be compatible with the specific electrosurgical unit. While universal models exist, compatibility is essential. Electrodes also vary in shape, contact surface area, weight, and size. Depending on the patient, options are available for adults, animals, or newborns weighing less than 5 kg. Universal variants often offer the most flexibility. Modern manufacturers also offer the following types of passive HF electrodes:
- Reusable. Typically used in high-volume clinics, these electrodes connect to the power source via cable. They come in various sizes and are attached to the patient’s body using special fastening straps. Their main drawback is maintaining constant contact with the skin, which is why they are generally considered less reliable than disposable electrodes with self-adhesive backing.
- Disposable. Available in split or solid designs. Split electrodes allow real-time monitoring of skin contact, and if the connection is insufficient, the electrosurgical generator automatically stops the current. These electrodes include a self-adhesive layer for secure skin contact and are usually packaged individually in sterile units ranging from 15 to 100 pieces per box.
You can order passive electrodes with nationwide delivery in Ukraine directly from our online store. Our prices are competitive, and both the product quality and level of service will exceed your expectations.
