What safety features are incorporated into electrosurgical units?



Electrosurgical units (ESUs), which use high-frequency electrical current to cut, coagulate, or fulgurate tissue during surgical procedures, incorporate numerous safety features to minimize risks to both patients and surgical staff. One crucial feature is the return electrode monitoring (REM) system, designed to prevent burns at the return electrode site. The REM system continuously monitors the impedance between the active electrode and the return electrode. If the contact between the return electr....
