Cautery Machine(5)

A cautery machine is a medical device used to burn, cut, or coagulate tissue during surgeries or medical procedures. It is commonly used in electrosurgery and thermal cautery to stop bleeding (hemostasis) and remove abnormal tissues. There are two main types: electrocautery, which uses electrical current, and thermal cautery, which uses heat. Monopolar and bipolar electrocautery are the two primary methods, with monopolar being more powerful but requiring a grounding pad, while bipolar is safer for delicate areas. These machines are essential in general surgery, dermatology, ophthalmology, and gynecology for precision and minimal blood loss.
