Three different methods of electrocautery were used to study the effects of electrocoagu-lation on limbs and intraabdominal blood vessel of 6 rabbits. These methods are non-touching, touching and segmental electrocoagulation. The results show that all three methods can satisfactorily stop bleeding of the blood vessel which is smaller than 1. 5mm in diameter. For arteries with the diameter 1.5~2.0mm. the effect of segment electrocoagulation is better than the other methods because it has a long burn end after cautery.
