What is ultrasonic aspiration?

Ultrasonic aspiration (UA) devices are commonly used for resecting intracranial tumors, as they allow for internal debulking of large tumors, hereby avoiding damage to adjacent brain tissue during the dissection. Little is known about their comparative safety profiles.

What is a Sonopet used for?

Purpose: The Sonopet Ultrasonic Aspirator is a surgical tool that uses low-frequency ultrasonic vibrations to fragment tissue while simultaneously irrigating and aspirating the surgical field.

What is surgical aspirator?

A medical aspirator is a suction machine used to remove mucus, blood, and other bodily fluids from a patient. They can be used during surgical procedures but an operating theater is generally equipped with a central system of vacuum tubes. Plastic tubing is used to continuously draw fluid into the collection canister.

How does an ultrasonic aspirator work?

Ultrasonic Aspirators (UA) utilize ultrasonic frequency vibrations generated by a piezoelectric element in the handpiece to remove tissue. Continuous irrigation emulsifies dissected particles, and simultaneous aspiration removes fragments and liquid resulting in a comparatively clean surgical field.

What is a surgical aspirator used for?

A medical aspirator is a suction machine used to remove mucus, blood, and other bodily fluids from a patient. They can be used during surgical procedures but an operating theater is generally equipped with a central system of vacuum tubes.

How does the sonopet ultrasonic aspirator system work?

Regulate ultrasonic power, suction and irrigation easily from the console. We’ve designed every component of the SONOPET system for maximum performance, reliability and ease of use. SONOPET Ultrasonic Aspirator masters fine bone and hard tissue dissection by coupling longitudinal vibration with torsional oscillation.

What causes a sonopet handpiece to stop working?

If the frequency light comes on, the system stops sending power to the handpiece. Several things could cause this to happen. The handpiece tip is installed incorrectly. The suction system is blocked. The console is damaged. The handpiece is assembled incorrectly or damaged.

How big is a sonopet ultrasonic suction irrigation bone?

SONOPET Ultrasonic Aspirator Ultrasonic power Suction Irrigation Bone 100% 50% 18 ml/min Recommended initial settings OD = outer diameter; ID = inner diameter; CL = cutting length; CW = cutting width Part number Length CL CW 5450-800-311 3.8in (9.7cm) 2.0mm 2.8mm Spetzler claw Bone tips | unroofing and skeletonization

How does the sonopet system cut bone cells?

Because calcified and rigid structures don’t absorb ultrasonic oscillation, the SONOPET system cuts bone cells smoothly and efficiently. Underlying soft tissue vibrates with oscillation, moves away from the vibrating tip and remains largely unaffected.
