[A new method for haemostasis by tonsillectomy by use of infrared radiation (author's transl)]. 1978

H J Kornmesser, and A Kressner, and A Kreitmeier, and G Nath

Using infrared radiation tisssue is coagulated by infrared radiation and not by electrical current. Main purpose for this procedure is to apply mechanical pressure and radiation. No crust will stick to the artificial tip of the infrared apparatus to open up wounds once more. Infrared radiation for coagulation has been used in the clinic for 2 1/2 years, mainly in parenchymatous haemostasis during tonsillectomy. The method seems to be very effective and should enlargen the different means of dealing with haemorrhage.
