Electrosurgical tip cleaning pad

41 devices · GMDN 37483

Electrosurgical tip cleaning pads are single-use disposable devices designed to remove tissue residue and eschar buildup from surgical electrodes or blades during electrically-mediated procedures. Used primarily in cutting, coagulating, or cauterizing tissue, these pads help maintain optimal performance and safety of the electrosurgical instrument by keeping the tip clean and functional during surgery.

These pads are typically abrasive on one side for effective cleaning and adhesive on the other to secure them to a convenient location, such as a surgical drape or mayo stand. They may also include radiopaque markers for visibility under X-ray imaging. Since they are single-use, they are regulated as disposable medical devices and must comply with relevant safety and performance standards.
