Bovie IDS 210

Key Features of the Bovie IDS-210

The Bovie® IDS-210 includes the latest technology. This unit offers unsurpassed performance, flexibility, reliability, and convenience. It includes the following features:

• two cut modes, Cut I and Cut II
  Two cut modes give the surgeon flexibility to cut all types of tissue without losing performance. Cut I generate constant output power over a wide range of impedances. Refer to Appendix A, Technical Specifications section of this guide.
  
  Cut II is a softer cut that generates constant output power with a lower voltage over a small range of impedances suggested for laparoscopic procedures. Refer to Appendix A, Technical Specifications section of this guide.
• Four levels of Band
  The Blend mode is a combination of cutting and hemostasis. The IDS-210 gives the surgeon the freedom to adjust the desired level of hemostasis. A level setting of 1 is minimal blend with maximum cutting effect. A level setting of 4 is maximum hemostasis (blend) with minimal cutting effect. This adjustment is easily achieved by an incremental 4-level adjustment. Refer to Section 2, Controls, Indicators, and Receptacles, Cut and Blend Controls. The Blend mode improves the rate of targeted tissue desiccation without increasing the power delivered by the generator.
• Three leaves of coagulation: Pinpoint, Spray and Gentle Coagulation
• Pinpoint provides precise control of bleeding in localized areas.
• Spray provides greater control of bleeding in highly vascular tissue over broad surface areas.
• Gentle provides a more intense coagulation than in other modes. For instance, when Coagulation is necessary in short amounts of time, reduced electrode carbonization is provided
• Macro Bipolar Mode
  The Macro Bipolar Mode provides delicate Bipolar coagulation effects to prevent tip tissue adhesion and carbonization.
• Micro Bipolar mode
  The Micro Bipolar Mode provides precise Bipolar coagulation effects.
• Standard Mode
  The Standard Bipolar Mode provides power for conventional Bipolar output.
• Three Bipolar modes
  For procedures requiring Bipolar output power, the generator offers the surgeon three Bipolar modes (Macro, Micro and Standard).
• Presets
  The surgeon can store 10 user-defined RF presets for easy recall of frequently used settings.
• Return electrode sensing and contact monitoring
  The IDS-210 incorporates a return electrode contact quality monitoring system (Bovie NEM™). This system detects the type of return electrode: solid or split. The system also continually monitors the contact quality between the patient and the split return electrode. This feature is designed to minimize patient burns at the return electrode site.
