The technologies have also advanced and industry is continuously upgrading to develop solutions that perform precise and effective action and at the same time is safe and reliable to both the patient as well to the theatre personnels [1]. The major energy sources for neonatal surgery available are electrosurgery and its modifications, ultrasonic dissectors, lasers, and cryotherapy. Of these, electrosurgery and ultrasonic energy is frequently used. A neonatal surgeon must have a basic understanding of the instruments for its safe and optimal use. This article deals with the basics physics of the instruments and how common understanding and precautions can make them safe, both for neonates and surgeons.
