PropertyValue
?:definition
  • Electrodes designed for returning the radiofrequency (RF) current from the patient to the electrosurgical unit in monopolar surgery procedures. These electrodes typically consist of conducting pads that are attached to the patient\'s skin in places far from the surgical site; they conduct back (i.e., return) the dispersed current to the RF generator through appropriate cables without burns or other effects to the patient due to the pad\'s large contact area. Return electrosurgical unit electrodes are used in conjunction with active electrosurgical electrodes during monopolar procedures.
