• Model: SEP6000
• Cord Length: 10 feet

The Medtronic SEP6000 Valleylab Telescoping Smoke Evacuation Pencil is an advanced tool designed to integrate electrosurgery with real‑time smoke evacuation. In surgical settings where electrosurgical pencils produce significant smoke or surgical plume, this device helps maintain clarity of the operative field, which in turn improves visualization and may reduce operative time. The telescoping capture cannula or tube captures smoke directly at the site of cutting/coagulation. Because the cannula is transparent and adjustable in length without the need for locking mechanisms, surgeons can adapt quickly to different distances and angles, improving usability without adding complexity to the procedure. The non‑stick “Edge” blade electrode further supports smoother cutting and less tissue adhesion, reducing interruptions.

Ergonomically, the SEP6000 is designed to reduce fatigue and improve user control. The rocker switch lets the operator toggle between modes (CUT / COAG) at their fingertips. The cord and tubing are corrugated for flexibility, and there is a swivel connection that reduces drag, enabling freer movement of the hand and reducing wrist strain. Its low‑profile front end helps surgeons see more directly into the target area, which is especially important in confined or deep surgical sites. These design features combine to make a pencil that feels more intuitive, less cumbersome, and better suited to sustained use.

From a safety and workflow standpoint, integrating smoke evacuation directly into the electrosurgical pencil helps reduce staff exposure to surgical smoke, which has recognized health hazards (irritation, possible inhalation risks). It also aids in keeping the surgical site cleaner, potentially reducing post‑operative cleaning needs. The 10‑foot cord gives good reach without excessive slack, supporting flexible OR layouts. Overall, the SEP6000 is positioned for surgical teams prioritizing both performance of electrosurgery and environmental/visual safety in the OR.
