Additional doctor info: "I use this machine for every surgery except cat spays.  This machine eases surgical effort greatly.  I’ve had it for eight years and it’s spotless.  It has never been dropped or damaged.  I do not use the Covidian stand—mine lives on a rolling stainless steel cart that is just right for the footprint.

 The neatest feature is the Instant Response Technology.  It provides improved performance at lower power settings, minimizing the risk of tissue damage or neuromuscular stimulation.  Also, it decreases the need to turn up the generator.  This allows the generator to adjust automatically, responding to tissue changes.  It recognizes changes in tissue 200 times per second and adjusts voltage and current accordingly.

The EZ generator has a Standard bipolar mode, which I only use for enucleations.  No matter what approach you use to the retrobulbar space, there is no more fumbling with clamps and ligature for the tie off.  Simply insert the bipolar tongues behind the globe and zap it off.  My time for a complete enucleation from start to finish is 15 minutes.

These 3 booklets will be sent with the machine-- they are quite in-depth.  They give guidance as to settings, but not exact numbers.  Dr. says that the machine itself has the ability to know what kind of tissue it is cutting through and makes adjustments as necessary-- this is it's Instant Response technology, of which he speaks very highly.  He also says that as you cut you will evaluate and make changes when you see the effect on the tissue.  He says he didn't change the settings very often from one surgery to another.
