The Rafaelo® generator is a monopolar radiofrequency generator specifically designed for proctological applications; it can be used in treating both internal haemorrhoids and anal fistulas through RF ablation.
This plug-and-play, maintenance-free medical device generates 4MHz radiofrequency energy and transmits it to the attached probe or catheter at the touch of a foot pedal. For added safety and convenience, it features parameter presets for each application.
· Plug-and-play, maintenance-free design
· Clear, concise touchscreen controls and application-based presets
· Displays energy usage (in joules) and duration of application
· Foot pedal for convenient hands-free control
Rafaelo Radiofrequency Probes for treatment of hemorrhoid Rafaelo is performed using the HPR45i needle probe, which is inserted into the pile and used to deliver targeted RF energy. Unlike in electrocautery, radiofrequency ablation results in very little heat spread beyond the tip of the electrode—the 2 mm-diameter HPR45i needle probe has a thermal radius of just 3 mm, enabling precise thermocoagulation without damaging surrounding tissue. | |
Fistura RF catheters for treatment of anal fistula Fistura RF catheters The innovative Fistura procedure is a minimally invasive, sphincter-sparing method of treating anal fistulae using radiofrequency catheter ablation. Highly flexible Fistura catheters help users follow the fistula tract easily, sealing it along its entire length in a matter of minutes. Markings along the catheter serve as a convenient visual guide: simply withdraw the catheter by one marking every 12 seconds. Moreover, the catheter tip has a thermal effect radius of just 3 mm, which prevents damage to the surrounding tissue. |
