The Olympus MH-969 is a monopolar electrosurgical unit (ESU), and it typically requires a high-frequency (HF) cord/cable to connect the electrosurgical generator to the active electrode. Here’s a breakdown of relevant information regarding the MH-969 and its associated high-frequency cord/cable:

Key Features of Olympus MH-969 ESU

1. Monopolar Functionality:

   • Designed for cutting and coagulating tissue during surgical procedures.
   • Utilizes a single active electrode that delivers high-frequency electrical current.

2. User Controls:

   • Allows for variable power settings, enabling surgeons to adjust the output based on the procedure and tissue type.
   • May include features like auto-cut and blend modes for optimized cutting and coagulation.

3. Safety Mechanisms:

   • Equipped with safety features to prevent excessive current flow and overheating, protecting both the patient and the surgical team.

4. Durability and Reliability:

   • Designed for high-performance and longevity, suitable for continuous use in operating rooms.

High-Frequency (HF) Cord/Cable

• Purpose: The HF cord/cable connects the electrosurgical generator (like the MH-969) to the electrosurgical instruments (e.g., monopolar electrodes).
• OEM Quality: Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) cables are recommended for optimal performance and safety. They are designed specifically for use with the MH-969, ensuring compatibility and reliability.
• Specifications:
  • Ensure that the cable is rated for high-frequency use and meets any necessary safety standards.
  • Check for features such as length, flexibility, and insulation quality to ensure ease of use during surgical procedures.

Applications

The Olympus MH-969 and its associated HF cord/cable are used in various surgical fields, including:

• General Surgery
• Urology
• Gynecology
• Plastic Surgery
• Dermatology

Maintenance Tips

1. Regular Inspection: Inspect the HF cord/cable for any signs of wear, fraying, or damage before each use.
2. Cleaning: Follow manufacturer guidelines for cleaning the cable, especially after exposure to biological fluids.
3. Proper Storage: Store the cable in a safe, dry place to avoid damage and ensure longevity.
