ERBE APC 300

What is ACP?

Argon plasma coagulation, APC for short, is an electrosurgical, monopolar procedure for superficial hemostasis, devitalization, and ablation using ionized argon gas. Argon is an inert gas and can be easily ionized.

Working with argon plasma coagulation

Using APC The most effective location for APC ignition is close to tissue. The distance between the applicator tip and tissue during use is approx. 5-15 mm. The coagulation is directly visible on the tissue; movement can be used to determine and easily control the surface distribution and the intensity of the coagulation surface. In literature, usage is sometimes compared to using a paintbrush. Only use when there is good visibility APC should only be applied where there is good visibility Penetration depth and dosage The penetration depth of APC depends on various factors such as mode, effect, and duration of application. In the case of conventional usage, a penetration depth of approx. 2-3 mm can be assumed. Avoid tissue contact Do not place the APCapplicator tip on tissue while activated. Do not allow the gas to enter the vessels or organs. Distance to metal and surgical suture To prevent unintended coagulation, do not apply APC to metal clips or surgical suture.

Refurbished ERBE APC 300 Electrosurgical Unit

The ERBE APC 300 Electrosurgical Unit is not only technically refurbished but also cosmetically refurbished to make it work and look like new. When the refurbishing process starts on the ERBE APC300 system is carefully inspected and tested by our own in-house biomedical engineers that are highly skilled and  certified to work on ERBE APC 300 Electrosurgical Unit. If necessary, parts are replaced to make sure that all aspects of the pump are functioning properly. Once everything is in working order, the unit is calibrated back to the original engineering manufacturer specifications. This ensures that the unit is working the same way that it originally left the manufacturer. After the ERBE system is working like new it undergoes a special cosmetic restoration process. The ERBE APC 300 Electrosurgical Unit is cleaned, minor scratches and dents are repaired, it’s painted, and new decals are replaced if necessary. After this strenuous refurbishing process, the infant warmer functions and looks like new. Before the ERBE APC 300 is labeled patient-ready and packed up for shipment, it goes through one last quality control test that makes sure all aspects are again working as they should.
