Description
The Holmium Laser System is a gold-standard energy-based device used extensively in urology, particularly for procedures involving urinary stones (lithotripsy) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Holmium lasers emit pulsed energy at a wavelength (approx. 2100 nm) that is strongly absorbed by water, enabling precise tissue ablation and stone fragmentation with minimal thermal spread.
Typical Medical Use:
In a typical ureteroscopy lithotripsy procedure, the urologist:
- Inserts a ureteroscopy into the urinary tract to visualize the stone.
- Guides a Holmium laser fibre through the working channel.
- Delivers targeted pulses to fragment the stone into dust-like particles.
- Flushes or removes the fragments with a basket or irrigation.
In HoLEP (Holmium Laser Enucleation of the Prostate), the laser is used to enucleate obstructive prostate tissue, which is then removed via morcellation.
Key Features
- ✅ Adjustable Pulse Energy & Frequency – Tailored output for various tissue types and stone densities.
- High-Peak Power Output – Efficient fragmentation and precise ablation.
- Compact, Portable Design – Ideal for operating rooms or outpatient surgical settings.
- Dual-Mode Operation – Tissue resection and lithotripsy in a single device.
- ️ Minimal Thermal Spread – Protects surrounding tissues during procedures.
- Built-in Safety Systems – Fibre detection, cooling systems, and fault monitoring.
Benefits
- Minimally invasive: reduced recovery time and hospital stay.
- Universal stone compatibility – Effective on all stone compositions.
- Precision: Protects healthy tissue during prostate or bladder procedures.
- Versatile: One system for both stone and soft tissue applications.
- Cost-efficient: Reduces need for repeat surgeries or auxiliary equipment.
Summary & Conclusion
The Holmium Laser System is an indispensable tool in modern urology, offering versatility, precision, and safety in managing urinary stones and enlarged prostate conditions. Its adaptability across multiple urological interventions and superior patient outcomes make it a preferred choice in hospitals and urology centres worldwide.
Instructions for Use
- Set up the laser unit in a sterile environment.
- Connect the fibre-optic cable to the laser handpiece.
- Calibrate the laser according to the procedure (stone size, location, tissue type).
- Insert the scope and guide the fibre to the target site.
- Deliver laser pulses as needed, adjusting energy/frequency.
- Monitor temperature and output via the on-screen interface.
- After use, power down, disconnect fibres, and sterilize components.
