Proposal of a model for the influence of coating area on the electric field at the tip of electrocautery for suppressing tip charring and surgical smoke generation due to blood heating

The electrocautery is an essential device in surgical operations, capable of performing both incisions and hemostasis. Hemostasis can be achieved by charring the blood, but issues such as re-bleeding due to adhesion on the electrode surface and the generation of surgical smoke have been noted. In th...
