MEIG had recently organised a CE talk for our students on Electrosurgical Units. Mr. Andre Yeo, Senior Engineer from Covidien had come down to give us this talk. He had also bought the electrosurgical unit, ForceTiad, for the talk to give a demo to our students. The first photo shows the demonstration of the effect of poor electrode placement with an orange!!
There were also other demonstrations using light bulb. These demonstrations did capture all the student’s attention and they got quite involved and participative during the talk. Below are some photos and students responses to share with you all.
Student responses….
…………. my doubt about the equipment get cleared through the ce talk. it was a great experience for me to get familiar with the modern equipment. also it made me enthusiastic about the course i'm going to study. Firstly i really surprised about the faci not getting electric shock while working with the machine. but when he explained about the current technique used in machines i feel that there is nothing to worry about the short circuit or getting shock etc. the machine is so user friendly…………
…….To see for ourselves the equipments used in the modern day surgical operation is fantastic. Although the demonstration wasn’t done for ‘real’, but the use of light bulb and orange was good enough. We could already see its capability. What makes it more interesting is that the electrosurgical unit is able to stop bleeding when a patient is undergoing an open surgery…..
