This video demonstrate Safe Use of Electrosurgery in Laparoscopy Part I - Lecture by Dr R K Mishra. Electrosurgical units are the most common type of electrical equipment in the operating room. A basic understanding of electricity is needed to safely apply electrosurgical technology for patient care. The risk of complications is linked to the surgeon's fundamental knowledge of instruments, surgical technique, biophysics, relevant anatomy, and safe technical equipment. The risk of complications is linked to fundamental surgical knowledge of instruments, surgical technique, biophysics, and relevant anatomy. Appropriately applied, electrosurgery is safe and effective. Electrothermal injury may result from direct application, insulation failure, direct coupling, and capacitive coupling.
