ABSTRACT
The results of the research of the Paton Welding Institute in the field of high-frequency welding of biological tissues for their connection, coagulation and cutting are presented. The authors share their experience in creating specialized equipment, tools and algorithms. In laboratory and clinical conditions, complex studies of the behavior of various types of various tissues under the influence of high-frequency current were carried out, new original process algorithms were proposed and tested, which ensure high quality of the obtained connections and shorten the recovery time of operated tissues.
The use of developed technologies and equipment in practical surgery ensures: bloodless, fast, low-traumatic for the patient surgical interventions, reliable hemostasis without the use of suture materials; reduction of blood loss by more than 50%; reducing the duration of operations by 20…50%; rapid rehabilitation of patients after surgery.
Prospects for further development of technologies for high-frequency welding are considered.
