COBLATION HALO Wand with the WEREWOLF System presents an all-in-one design for adenotonsillectomy, combining fine dissection and debulking in a single device. The integrated pump provides consistent saline delivery to support efficient plasma formation, while reinforced shaft engineering reduces clogging and allows bending up to 90 degrees without kinking. Dual coagulation and smaller cutting tip thickness aim to improve hemostasis access and dissection precision, with durable electrode performance throughout use.

FAQs

COBLATION HALO and WEREWOLF System is different from the existing COBLATION System how?

It uses the same foundational technology but offers an all-in-one device for both fine dissection and debulking in adenotonsillectomy, with added features addressing questions commonly faced in the OR.

How does the system help reduce clogging during adenotonsillectomy?

The reinforced wand shaft helps prevent kinks, and the new tip clearing stylet is designed to clear clogs more easily and quickly if they occur.

What benefits are claimed for precision and thermal effect compared with monopolar electrocautery?

COBLATION Technology in ENT procedures is described as ablating at temperatures typically no higher than 70°C and minimizing thermal damage, contributing to less painful recovery, while the HALO Wand cutting tip thickness is presented as supporting more precise dissection.
