Hologic - NovaSure Impedance
DESCRIPTION
Controlled Endometrial Ablation SystemThe NovaSure Impedance is a thermal radio-frequency device that is inserted transcervically into the uterine cavity and, using the RF controller, delivers radio-frequency energy to treat the interior surface of the uterine cavity. The actual radio-frequency treatment requires an average of approximately 90 seconds. Neither concomitant hysteroscopic visualization nor endometrial pre-treatment is required.
During the ablation process, radio-frequency energy dessicates and coagulates the endometrium and the underlying, superficial myometrium. As tissue destruction progresses, electrical impedance of the tissue increases. The procedure terminates when impedance at the tissue-electrode interface reaches 50 ohms or when the total treatment time reaches 2 minutes, whichever comes first.

1Reply4 years ago | Fault 002 Have a customer getting with this unit getting Fault 002, Abandon Procedure and I can't find any literature to help me troubleshoot it. Anybody got any ideas? Haven't actually looked at the unit yet, but I wanted to get a head start on it.Reply |
