Stainless steel staples provide a fast method for wound closure and have been associated with decreased wound infection rates. Staples have been shown to be less reactive than traditional suturing material. Stapling does not affect tissue defenses since it requires minimal skin penetration, and, thus, fewer microorganisms are carried into the lower skin layers. Staples are more expensive than traditional sutures and also require great care in placement, especially in ensuring the closure of wound edges. However, with proper placement, resulting scar formation is cosmetically equivalent to that of other techniques.
The Gemini™ Cautery System is the perfect tool for cauterizing and regulating hemostasis in many surgical procedures. Two tip sizes and two different operating temperatures (2200°F/1204°C or 1300°F/704°C) provide maximum versatility.
The easily replaceable, autoclavable, Nickel-Chrome tips require less power and provide longer battery life than other cautery pens on the market. The unit uses two standard AA batteries; using the battery spacer instead of one of the batteries changes the operating temperature from high to low. The handle has a screw-cap for convenient battery replacement.
