Description

2. Specialized Operating Modes and Configurations

  • General Mode: Used for open surgical procedures, providing essential basic functionalities for cutting and coagulation.
  • Fluid Mode: Optimized for operation in fluid environments, such as in urological or arthroscopic procedures, improving performance and safety by quickly initiating and effectively adjusting energy.
  • Laparoscopic Mode: This critical mode reduces output voltage to minimize risks associated with capacitive coupling and insulation breakdown, key for safety in laparoscopic procedures.
  • Pulse Cut and Pulse Coag: Both modes are designed to offer more refined control during surgery. Pulse Cut is ideal for precise cutting near delicate tissues, while Pulse Coag facilitates surface coagulation through controlled bursts of energy, aiding in hemostasis management during interventions.

3. Advanced Safety Features

  • Bipolar Output Measurement: This feature provides both visual and auditory indicators that inform the surgeon of tissue desiccation levels, enabling quick and informed decisions during bipolar procedures.
  • ARM (Automatic Return Monitoring): An advanced safety system that issues alerts if it detects issues with the dispersive electrode contact, enhancing patient protection and reducing the risk of burns or injuries.
  • Energy and Voltage Specifications: Detailed specifications of maximum energy output and peak voltage for different operational modes ensure that surgeons can apply the appropriate amount of energy needed for each specific procedure.
