Description
The Nikomed Nikosurg ESU Grounding Pads, the Nikosurg grounding pad, is a disposable pregelled neutral electrode line for monopolar electrosurgery, in standard, split and prewired split versions from Nikomed, made for safe return of electrosurgical current in monopolar procedures on adults and children. Operating room teams and surgical centers reach for the Nikosurg grounding pad when a return electrode whose contact quality the generator can actually monitor, case after case matters more than improvising with the wrong supply. The Nikosurg grounding pad keeps the routine simple, so attention stays on the work itself instead of the equipment.
- Standard 2407N – The unsplit pad for generators without contact quality monitoring, 100 to a box, cable supplied separately.
- Split 2408 – The split pad pairs with REM-style monitoring so the generator watches contact quality throughout the case.
- Prewired 2508 – The split pad arrives with its 3 m REM cable attached, 50 to a box, ready to plug in.
- Overlapping Gel – Hydrogel overlaps the conductive foil edge, the construction that guards against edge burns.
- Rounded Active Geometry – Rounded geometry spreads current evenly across the 171 sq cm pad.
