We thank Owen et al for their comment on our study about the incidence and risk factors of surgical blood splatter. They recommend the use of cotton gauze swabs over the tips of the bipolar forceps to minimize the risk of blood splatter. This is an interesting and novel approach. We wonder however, if this technique could result in loss of precise visualization of the surgical field, risking inadvertent cautery of adjacent structures and more difficult haemostasis.
