Patent ID: 11350980

Abstract:
Ultrapolar non-telescopic electrosurgery pencil with argon beam capability which is capable of using monopolar energy in a bipolar mode for cutting and coagulation and which is also capable of using an ionized gas for cutting and coagulation. The ultrapolar non-telescopic electrosurgery pencil with argon beam capability includes a handpiece member, an electrosurgery blade assembly positioned within an end of the handpiece member where the electrosurgery blade assembly includes a blade having a non-conductive sharp cutting edge, a return electrode, and an active electrode, and a non-conductive hollow tube member positioned over a top of the blade and at least a portion of the return electrode, a first conductive hollow tube having at least a portion concentrically contained within the non-conductive hollow tube member of the electrosurgery blade assembly, a flexible non-conductive tube contained within at least a portion of ultrapolar non-telescopic electrosurgery pencil which provides a gas to the first conductive hollow tube, and a plurality of electrical conductors for connecting the return electrode, the active electrode, and the first conductive hollow tube to an RF electrosurgical generator for activating the ultrapolar non-telescopic electrosurgery pencil.
