Grounding / Diathermy Pads

The revolutionary "sling design" of the TWIN-SAFE makes it possible for the first time to use efficiently the symmetry surveillance of last-generation devices fully and completely and with arbitrary electrode orientation. The typical symmetry deviation of the HF current is below 5 % with any orientation of the TWIN-SAFE.

These electrodes are for applications with HF - surgery devices which support a Contact Quality Monitoring (CQM)

Pre-attached grounding pads are pre connected with a cable for the connection between the HF Surgery Device and the neutral electrode. Simply select the right type of cable for your device for instant application.

These electrodes are for standard applications with HF - surgery devices which have no Contact Quality Monitoring (CQM).

The advantages of SWAROPLATE Diathermy Pads / Neutral Electrodes:

• Stays in place - The adhesiveness of the foam border and of the conductive gel make sure that the electrode will not come off. This means that there is practically no danger of burnings with SWAROPLATE
• Ready to be used - Just remove the protective sheeting and apply the electrode on the prepared skin. There is no additional gel required!
• Highly flexible with excellent skin compatibility - Gel and adhesive foam are tolerated even by a sensitive skin. There is no gel left on the skin after the application
