DRAPER, UT--(Marketwire - August 11, 2010) - Sales of Megadyne's line of suction coagulators have more than quadrupled over the past two months, leading Megadyne to accelerate production to meet the increased demand.
Ideal for ear, nose and throat procedures, Megadyne's suction coagulators are available in 8, 10 & 12 French size for surgeon preference and to match the coagulator to the size of the patient's anatomy and surgical procedure being performed.
Available in both hand-switching and foot-controlled options, the coagulator is fully insulated to reduce the likelihood of injury to surrounding structures and tissues and its integrated guard prevents user shocks. The hand-controlled versions have a tactile switch so the surgeon is assured when the pencil has been activated. Additional features include:
- Easy-to-bend cannula enabling precise application
- Finger-controlled suction vent
- Universal suction port that holds 1/4 in. or 3/16 in. tubing securely
- Included safety holster that complies with AORN electrosurgery safety specifications
"While this product has always been popular, we believe that the jump in sales can be attributed to increasing awareness of our suction coagulator line," said Melissa Fischer, product manager at Megadyne. "Surgeons are requesting it because of the quality and performance it offers and hospital purchasing departments like its price."
