To prevent diathermy burns, ensure proper electrode placement and maintain adequate skin contact. Regularly monitor the patient's skin for signs of irritation or overheating during the procedure. Use appropriate power settings and limit the duration of diathermy application to minimize heat buildup. Additionally, employing cooling techniques or insulating materials can help protect the skin from excessive heat.
