AEM® Monitor
Product Information
For Safe Monopolar Laparoscopy
The AEM® Monitor
continuously monitors the laparoscopic instrument during surgery to eliminate stray energy burns caused by insulation failure and capacitive coupling. Should a potentially dangerous level of stray electrosurgical energy occur, the AEM® Monitor interrupts the power by shutting down the generator.
The 5mm AEM® Laparascopic Instruments incorporate a layered design unique in the industry. AEM® instruments are shielded and monitored to eliminate stray energy burns along the shaft of the instrument caused by insulation failure or capacitive coupling; a well-documented patient safety risk. The protective shield built into all AEM® Instruments provides a neutral return path for capacitively coupling energy and protection from insulation failure. The integrity of the instrument is continuously monitored during surgery.
Encision has a full line of AEM® Surgical Instruments that are equivalent in function, ergonomics, size, shape, length and tip-styles as conventional instruments… but with advanced safety from the shielded and monitored AEM® design.
