Integra CUSA36 36kHz Ultrasonic Surgical Handpiece

The Integra CUSA 36kHz handpiece is a specialized instrument for the Cavitron Ultrasonic Surgical Aspirator system, differentiated from other models in the CUSA line by its specific operating frequency. While 23kHz handpieces are often favored for bulk tissue removal, the 36kHz frequency of this model is engineered to offer a precise balance of power and control, ideal for more delicate applications.

This surgical handpiece functions by converting electrical energy into high-frequency ultrasonic vibrations. When the tip comes into contact with tissue, it selectively fragments it while leaving elastic structures like blood vessels and nerves largely intact. The fragmented tissue is then simultaneously removed from the surgical field via an integrated aspiration system.

Key Features and Applications:

• Operating Frequency: 36 kHz, providing precise tissue fragmentation.
• Primary Function: Ultrasonic tissue ablation and aspiration.
• Common Specialties: Widely used in neurosurgery, liver surgery, and other procedures requiring meticulous soft tissue dissection.

For procurement managers and clinical engineering departments, it is crucial to confirm that this CUSA36 handpiece is compatible with your facility's existing Integra CUSA console before purchase. Ensuring system compatibility is key to seamless integration into your surgical workflow.
