Abstract
A monopolar suction coagulator device is provided for use with a vacuum source and an electrosurgical generator to perform a coagulation procedure and an evacuation procedure at a surgical site. The device includes an active electrode portion at the distal end of a probe, and the probe is formed of a thermally conductive and electrically conductive, non-stick metal material along all or substantially all of its length, to aid in heat dissipation during a coagulation procedure.
