Who Demand Precision

Lubecision eliminates eschar buildup with a single pre-operative application, so you can maintain uninterrupted focus from first incision to close.

The Challenge

You Know the Problem

You are mid-procedure, focused, in rhythm. Then the tip sticks. Eschar builds. You pause, hand back the instrument, wait for it to be cleaned, reposition, and re-establish your plane. It happens again. And again. It is the most preventable disruption in electrosurgery — and it compounds with every case.

Mid-Procedure Interruptions

Every pause to clean an electrode tip breaks your concentration, disrupts the surgical rhythm, and forces you to re-establish your operative plane. These interruptions are not minor — they fragment the cognitive flow that complex procedures demand.

Inconsistent Performance

As eschar accumulates, impedance rises. You compensate with higher power settings, but that introduces greater thermal spread and less predictable tissue effect. The instrument becomes progressively less precise as the case continues.

Extended Case Times

Each hand-back costs 30 to 90 seconds. Across 5 to 12 cleaning pauses per case, you are adding 10 to 40 minutes of non-operative time. Multiply that across your weekly caseload, and the cumulative delay is substantial.

The Solution

What Changes with Lubecision

Without Lubecision

Apply instrument
Eschar builds on tip
Pause procedure
Hand back for cleaning
Reposition and re-orient
Resume cutting
Repeat cycle 5–12 times

A fragmented workflow with repeated disruptions, lost concentration, and cumulative time loss across the case.

With Lubecision

Apply Lubecision pre-operatively
Begin procedure
Continuous, uninterrupted electrosurgical flow
Uninterrupted Performance
Full procedure

Consistent current flow from start to finish — no cleaning pauses, no workflow interruptions.

A streamlined workflow. One application. Continuous operative flow. Your full attention stays on the patient.

Clinical Impact

Clinical Advantages

Fewer Hand-Backs for Tip Cleaning

Dramatically reduce the number of times you pause to hand back instruments for eschar removal. Maintain your operative rhythm throughout the case.

Consistent Current Flow Throughout

Without eschar insulating the electrode, impedance remains stable. Your energy delivery stays predictable from the first application to the last.

Reduced Need for Increased Power

When tips stay clean, you can operate at your preferred settings. No compensatory power increases that change tissue effect profiles.

Lower Risk of Thermal Spread

Stable impedance means controlled energy delivery. Reduced need for higher power settings decreases the risk of unintended lateral thermal injury to adjacent tissue.

Preserved Instrument Integrity

Eliminating repeated abrasive scrubbing extends electrode tip life. Less mechanical degradation means more consistent performance throughout each instrument cycle.

Faster Case Turnover

Shorter operative times and fewer cleaning-related delays contribute to improved OR throughput, allowing your team to start the next case on schedule.

da Vinci® Compatible

Built for the Robotic OR

Robotic surgery introduces unique workflow constraints that make anti-stick protection not just beneficial — but essential. When you are operating from the console, instrument cleaning pauses are exponentially more disruptive.

The Robotic Surgery Challenge

Console-Based Workflow

In robotic surgery, you are physically separated from the operative field. When eschar builds on your instrument tips, you cannot simply hand the tool to your scrub nurse. The instrument must be removed from the port, cleaned, and reinserted — a process that can take several minutes and requires breaking your operative flow.

Complex Instrument Design

da Vinci instruments feature intricate articulating wrist mechanisms and multi-jointed tips. These complex geometries create more surface area for tissue adhesion and make cleaning more difficult than with standard electrosurgical devices.

High-Cost Instruments at Risk

At $600–$3,500 per procedure, da Vinci instruments represent a significant investment. Eschar buildup and repeated abrasive cleaning accelerate wear, particularly on the precision articulation mechanisms that define robotic surgery.

The Lubecision Advantage

Apply pre-operatively to all robotic instrument tips before docking
Maintain continuous electrosurgical performance throughout the entire case
Eliminate the need to undock and clean instruments mid-procedure
Preserve instrument articulation and precision mechanisms
Reduce capacitive coupling risk from eschar insulation buildup

“We use the product for our robotically assisted laparoscopic cases. It reduces tissue sticking to the tips and greatly reduces charring of the cautery tips. Very time beneficial since we do not have to stop and remove instruments to continually clean them.”

Surgeon Feedback

What Surgeons Are Saying

I used to stop five or six times per case to clean my tip. With Lubecision, I cannot remember the last time I had to pause for eschar. The workflow difference is immediate and obvious.

In ENT procedures where precision is everything, consistent energy delivery matters. Lubecision keeps the electrode performing the way it should from start to finish. My team noticed the difference on the first case.

We evaluated Lubecision across 30 cases in our department. Case times came down, the scrub nurses had fewer hand-backs, and I could maintain my operative focus. It has become standard in our prep.
