English term or phrase: cooptation of blood vessels

Ultrasonic Technology Overview
Blade comes into contact w/ tissue, pressure causes cooptation of blood vessel
Hydrogen bonds are broken, protein in cells is denatured
Denatured protein forms a sticky coagulum
This allows for simultaneous cutting and coagulation to take place at a lower temperature than Monopolar electro-surgery
Effect on tissue depends on tissue tension, power level, grip force & time

sanfte Verödung von Blutgefäßen

Explanation:
siehe Beispielsatz und Link

Example sentence(s):

Dies ist ein Ultraschall-Messer, das schneidet und dabei gleichzeitig schon während des Schnittes die Gefässe sanft verödet, damit es gar nicht erst zu bluten beginnt.

Reference: coAptation?

Reference information:
These mechanical vibrations then drive the active blade of the device. Vibrating 55,500 times per second, when the blade comes into contact with the tissue and pressure is applied, the blood vessels are coapted.

This coaptation breaks up positive hydrogen molecules, denaturing the protein in the cells. The denatured protein then forms a sticky coagulum, which forms a hemostatic seal, allowing the surgeon to simultaneously cut and coagulate.

Hier ein zweisprachiger Text, der "Koaptation" belegt. Ich vermute aber, dass das eher "Faulheit" ist, denn ansonsten gibt's nicht so viele Belege dafür.

In reconstruction of peripheral nerves, the
exact fascicular coaptation is one of
several important factors, upon which we
have a direct influence, at least to a certain
degree.
A straight and even cut-surface of the
nerve stumps greatly facilitates the exact
fascicular coaptation.
In der Rekonstruktion peripherer Nerven
ist die möglichst exakte Koaptation einer
von mehreren wichtigen Faktoren, den
wir, wenigstens bis zu einem gewissen
Grad, direkt beeinflussen können.
Technisch wird die exakte faszikuläre
Koaptation durch eine möglichst glatte
Schnittfläche der Nervenstümpfe erleichtert.

Ich finde Verödung nicht schlecht. Wenn man ein wenig nach Beschreibungen des mehrmals zitierten Ultraschallmessers sucht, stößt man auf die von Theo genannte Quelle, findet aber auch beispielsweise Folgendes:
Gleichzeitiges Durchtrennen und Versiegeln von Gefäßen/Gewebe

Das Harmonic System koppelt über einen Ultraschallschwinger mechanische Energie in das Gewebe ein. Diese ist in der Lage, Eiweiße zu denaturieren und gewebeschonend und blutungsarm zu durchtrennen.
