R.B. Merchant Pvt. Ltd. recently installed a Brand New ERBE VIO3 Electrosurgical Unit at Nepal Police Hospital. The unit, with its state-of-the art control and safety features, controlled by a powerful microprocessor with advanced sampling capabilities for on-the-go impedance regulation, will help the operators at the hospital perform sensitive and tactful endoscopic interventions with more confidence and patient comfort. The unit, designed to tackle complex endoscopic procedures along with open and laparoscopic surgical procedures , is providing its services to the super specialized faculty at the Central Hospital for members of the Police force in Nepal.
A family owned company from Germany operating for over 90 years, ERBE is known worldwide for its innovative and user-friendly devices that manifest the good design philosophy of the German manufacturing industry. With its big screen display, touch operation, and the ability to reprogram and assign different modes using foot pedals, 90% of the users of this system feel that the system is easier to use giving users one less thing to worry about during routine and complex therapeutic gastroenterological procedures. With its programmable buttons and switches, the gastroenterologists never have to leave the sterile field to make necessary adjustments as they utilize the various features of the device.
Electrosurgical units (ESUs), such as the VIO series, are essential tools in modern therapeutic gastroenterology utilizing high-frequency electrical currents to cut or coagulate tissue. The VIO series is designed for consistent and reliable tissue effects, maintaining stability even as tissue conditions change, which significantly enhances surgical precision through controlled spark intensity. Additionally, VIO units are engineered to prevent excessive current, ensuring both safety and efficacy in procedures of sensitive GI tract. This advanced technology delivers predictable and precise tissue interactions, making it an invaluable asset in the endoscopy cabin.
Gastroenterology relies heavily on precision and versatility in procedures, and the VIO3 system ,with its 4 monopolar, 4 bipolar, 4 plug & play instruments (e.g. BiClamp) or any combination thereof, has emerged as a cornerstone technology in this field. With its tailored modes and sophisticated instruments, the VIO3 facilitates a range of gastroenterological interventions with unparalleled accuracy and safety. In procedures such as endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for removing large lesions or tumors from the digestive tract, the VIO3’s preciseSECT mode, coupled with tools like the HybridKnife®, allows for meticulous tissue dissection and controlled coagulation, ensuring thorough excision while minimizing risks. Furthermore, in the treatment of radiation proctitis, a distressing complication of radiation therapy, the VIO3’s preciseAPC mode enables targeted delivery of ablative energy, offering relief from symptoms and promoting tissue healing with remarkable precision.
Beyond specialized interventions, the VIO3 system extends its utility to general gastroenterological procedures, enhancing diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities across the board. From polypectomies to endoscopic mucosal resections (EMR), the VIO3’s adaptive technology ensures optimal tissue interaction, facilitating efficient tissue removal and minimizing post-procedural complications. Moreover, in the management of gastrointestinal bleeding, the VIO3’s advanced modes, such as ENDO CUT®, enable controlled hemostasis, allowing clinicians to address bleeding lesions with precision and efficacy. These diverse applications underscore the VIO3’s pivotal role in elevating the standards of care in gastroenterology, empowering clinicians to deliver exceptional outcomes while prioritizing patient safety and comfort.
The installation of the VIO3 unit at the police hospital will elevate the level of medical services provided at the premier institution, ensuring that our dedicated officers and police personnel receive the highest standard of care, reflecting our unwavering commitment to supporting those who protect and serve our community.
