  • ELECTROSURGICAL UNIT WITH MODULATED OUTPUT FOR RF ABLATION SURGICAL DEVICE
    Publication number: 20190223937
    Abstract: An electrosurgical system including an electrosurgical unit with amplitude modulated output for ablation surgical devices, whereby the electrosurgical unit generates a signal in either a high mode or low mode, both of which are greater than zero, is disclosed. In at least one embodiment, the electrosurgical unit may be configured such that the power delivered to an electrode assembly of an ablation device in electrical communication with the electrosurgical unit is controlled by varying the duration or the intensity of power delivered during the high and low modes, or both. In another embodiment, the duration of the high mode may remain constant while the duration of the low mode may vary in order to vary the power output from the electrosurgical unit.

  • Fluid management system
    Patent number: 8663157
    Abstract: A fluid management system with a detection circuit for detecting whether an attached surgical device is operational. The fluid management system changes at least one operation mode when the surgical device is detected as being operational. The fluid management system may include inflow, outflow, or inflow/outflow capabilities, and monitors at least one signal characteristic of an AC power signal provided to the surgical device.
