Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

A Field cauterizer was a sixteen-centimeter-long device shaped like a stylus with a button on the end. It was used to burn wounds shut, disinfecting and cauterizing, by emitting a low-frequency laser beam. These items were standard equipment in New Republic medkits.

The Noghri Sirhka used a field cauterizer to burn Ganner Rhysode as a reminder of the Battle of Garqi.
