What is the feeling of the assorted experts on the relative values/benefits of these different technologies: ... bipolar cautery with built in cutter blade (Everest?) ... harmonic scalpel ... Gyrus

Personally, I have used the bipolar system for 20 years and am very happy with it. The bipolar forceps with built in cutter speed things up and hemostasis is excellent - never had a problem with that.

Harmonic scalpel seems to produce undue bleeding in my hands, even with appropriate mode selection, lack of tension, slow vaporization, etc.

Gyrus I have not used but am looking forward to trying.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
