Electromagnetic emissions due to electrosurgery

Abstract: Electrosurgery devices are an important part of surgical interventions in the modern medical service; however the benefits of using such technology are accompanied by side effects like electromagnetic pollution of the hospital environment. As a consequence, the maximum admitted levels of electric and magnetic fields for general public and occupational exposure could be exceeded in some cases and the risk of electromagnetic interference with medical devices rises while implementing electrosurgery in the operati… Show more

“…The use of electrosurgery requires an understanding of human body tissues and appropriate power and mode settings to avoid the effects of damage to body tissues [1]. According to research, the most basic things that make electrosurgery dangerous is one of them due to lack of understanding of the technology because the monopolar current generated is greater and will spread more widely throughout the body than by bipolar therefore, the correct power and mode settings are needed for reducing the risk of injury [2][3][4] [5]. The heat generated by electrosurgery can also have an impact on the network if the tissue implant is very sensitive to heat because even a little current and voltage passing through the network can damage the network.…”

“…At this frequency, electrosurgical energy can pass through the patient with minimal neuromuscular stimulation and there is no risk of electric shock (Benias & Carr-Locke, 2019). Electrosurgery frequency limit is 300 KHz -5 MHz (Knopf et al, 2013), (Dafinescu et al, 2012), (Karaki et al, 2017). As seen in Figure 1.…”

“…In line with technological advances making Electrosurgical is required to be used during the surgical process [11] [12]. The frequency range commonly used ranges from 300 kHz to 2.5 MHz [13] [14]. ESU operation is divided into 2 (two) modes, namely bipolar and monopolar.…”
