Electrocautery system electrodes are active conductor inserts or blades attached to an electrocautery system handpiece that are heated via electrical current from a generator to cut, burn, or sear body tissue during surgical intervention. They are typically used to stop bleeding through cauterisation of blood vessels and to treat superficial skin lesions such as wart removal.
