Help Guide On Single Use Cautery Burners from RB Medical
- Standard point burners (S tip) are used for a variety of lesions and can be used to cut and coagulate small areas.
- Cutting burners (D, F, G, N tips) are used for dividing skin tags and papilloma as well as removing some intradermal naevi. The D and R tips are side cutters for use in confined areas. The O tip has a small side cutter with a coagulation loop at the top.
- Ball point burners (B tip) are used for coagulation for sealing small bleeding points.
- Ring burners (A, C, tips) can be used as standard burners above, but can also be used as a ring over the top of protruding growths.
- Cold point burners (CP tip) are used for releasing subungual haematoma and for treating spider naevi. The cold point comes in one size only with a projecting needle approximately 8mm.
