Electrosurgical Unit

An electrosurgical unit (ESU) is a vital medical device used in surgical procedures to cut tissue and coagulate blood using high-frequency electrical currents. It comprises a generator that produces electrical energy, an active electrode for delivering the current, and a return electrode for completing the circuit. The ESU enables surgeons to perform precise incisions with minimal blood loss, reducing operative time and improving patient outcomes. With adjustable power settings and safety features, such as alarms and automatic shut-off, the electrosurgical unit is essential for modern surgical practices, enhancing efficiency and safety in various procedures, including laparoscopic and open surgeries.
