摘要:
597708 Apparatus for the reduction and removal of particles suspended in a local atmosphere and resulting from a surgical procedure is disclosed. The apparatus comprises two electrodes. Each electrode is in electrical communication with or is electrically connectable to opposite poles of a source of high voltage DC electricity. The first electrode is connectable to the body of a patient undergoing the procedure and the second electrode comprises a conductive rod extending through an insulating elongated shield. The rod has an exposed distal end and the rod and hence the second electrode are positionable near the site of the surgical procedure such that, in use, the two electrodes, when in communication with opposite poles of the high voltage DC, ionise the suspended particles, for attracting said suspended particles towards the patient.
