Submucous resection of inferior turbinates - does this sound right? - nn
Posted: Nov 15, 2012
Does the word humming seem right in the first sentence? I thought maybe there is a specific name for the type of handpiece or wand but I can't seem to find that. These are his exact words.
"Anterior stab incisions were created for submucosal resection with Coblation handpiece humming 45 degree reflex wand. Settings of 4 and 2 were used. Three separate submucous tunnels were created anterior to posteriorly with the Coblation foot pedal activated for 12 seconds."
Thank you!
Perhaps simply "on the"? - jld
[ In Reply To ..]Could it be something simple like "on the"?
ReFlex Ultra® 45 Plasma Wand is a brand name by the way, so if my thought is correct (and using correct capitalization), could it be--? (For consistency, too, if you're allowed to make grammatical changes, I would change the second "anterior" to adverb form to match posteriorly.):
"Anterior stab incisions were created for submucosal resection with Coblation handpiece on the 45-degree ReFlex Wand. Settings of 4 and 2 were used. Three separate submucous tunnels were created anteriorly to posteriorly with the Coblation foot pedal activated for 12 seconds."

The Coblation® unit is set to 6 and the Coblation® Reflex wand 55 is used to deliver the appropriate energy.
