These electrosurgical products are used during surgical procedures in gynecology, urology, plastic surgery, dermatology, veterinary, and other surgical markets for the cutting and coagulation of tissue. It is estimated that 80% of all surgical procedures performed worldwide are accomplished by electrosurgery. Our electrosurgery products fall under two categories, monopolar or bipolar. Monopolar products require the use of a grounding pad attached to the patient for the return of the electrical current, while bipolar products consist of two electrodes; one for the inbound current and one for the return current and therefore do not require the use of a grounding pad.</font></div>

Cauteries were originally designed for precise hemostasis (to stop bleeding) in ophthalmology. The current use of cauteries has been substantially expanded to include sculpting woven grafts in bypass surgery, vasectomies, evacuation of subungual hematoma (bleeding from a smashed fingernail) and for arresting bleeding in many types of surgery. Battery operated cauteries are primarily sterile one-time use products. We manufacture one of the broadest lines of cauteries in the world, including but not limited to, a line of replaceable battery and tip cauteries, which are popular in overseas markets.</font></div>

Class I devices are subject to general controls. These controls include registration and listing, labeling, pre-market notification and adherence to the FDA Quality System Regulation. Class II devices are subject to general and special controls. Special controls include performance standards, post market surveillance, patient registries and FDA guidelines. Class III devices are those which must receive pre-market approval by the FDA to ensure their safety and effectiveness. Currently, we only manufacture Class I and Class II devices.&#160;&#160;Pre-market notification clearance must be obtained for some Class I and most Class II devices when the FDA does not require pre-market approval. All of our products have been cleared by the pre-market notification process.</font></div>
