Freelance Surgical says electrosurgery has yet to take off in the veterinary profession in the way that it has in human surgery because many veterinary surgeons are still unfamiliar with the technology and have concerns about safety.
In fact, the company says, it can make surgery more efficient, faster and safer.
In the new series of videos, Alasdair Hotston Moore covers the background of electrosurgery, an overview of the Gima Diathermy unit and a practical demonstration of how to use the equipment correctly and safely.
Bilitis Hammond, Veterinary Specialist at Freelance Surgical said: “With the GIMA electrocautery units being so popular, we were surprised to find there was very little training on best use available online.
"We wanted to offer some short bitesize videos that show surgeons what this machine can offer so they are using it to its full potential and safely.
"We feel these videos will be a huge asset to everyone in practice. “
