    • A working end of a surgical instrument that carries first and second jaws for delivering energy to tissue. In a preferred embodiment, at least one jaw of the working end defines a tissue-engagement plane that contacts the targeted tissue. The cross-section of the engagement plane reveals that it defines a surface conductive portion that overlies a variably resistive matrix of a temperature-sensitive resistive material or a pressure-sensitive resistive material. An interior of the jaw carries a conductive material or electrode that is coupled to an Rf source and controller. In an exemplary embodiment, the variably resistive matrix can comprise a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) material, such as a ceramic, that is engineered to exhibit a dramatically increasing resistance (i.e., several orders of magnitude) above a specific temperature of the material. In use, the engagement plane will apply active Rf energy to captured tissue until the point in time that the variably resistive matrix is heated to its selected switching range. Thereafter, current flow from the conductive electrode through the engagement surface will be terminated due to the exponential increase in the resistance of variably resistive matrix to provide instant and automatic reduction of Rf energy application. Further, the variably resistive matrix can effectively function as a resistive electrode to thereafter conduct thermal energy to the engaged tissue volume. Thus, the jaw structure can automatically modulate the application of energy to tissue between active Rf heating and passive conductive heating of captured tissue to maintain a target temperature level.
    • 手术器械的工作端,其携带用于将能量递送至组织的第一和第二钳口。 在优选实施例中,工作端的至少一个钳口限定了接触目标组织的组织接合平面。 接合平面的横截面显示它限定了覆盖在温度敏感电阻材料或压敏电阻材料的可变电阻矩阵上的表面导电部分。 钳口的内部承载耦合到Rf源和控制器的导电材料或电极。 在示例性实施例中,可变电阻矩阵可以包括正温度系数(PTC)材料,例如陶瓷,其被工程化以显示高于材料的特定温度的显着增加的电阻(即几个数量级)。 在使用中,接合平面将对被捕获的组织施加活性的Rf能量,直到可变电阻矩阵被加热到其选择的开关范围的时间点为止。 此后,由于可变电阻矩阵的电阻的指数增加,导电电极通过接合表面的电流将终止,以提供即时和自动降低Rf能量应用。 此外,可变电阻矩阵可以有效地用作电阻电极,之后将热能传导到被接合的组织体积。 因此,钳口结构可以自动调节被捕获组织的活性Rf加热和被动导电加热之间的能量对组织的应用以保持目标温度水平。

    • An improved biopsy needle assembly for efficient removal of multiple biopsy cores from a single needle penetration. The needle apparatus comprises an elongate assembly of paired sleeves with an open notch in the wall of the outer sleeve for engaging a tissue volume in the bore of that sleeve. An inner sleeve or blade member with a sharp blade edge is moveable from a retracted position to an extended position to both (i) excise the tissue volume, and (ii) function as valve means to alter the open notch between an open position and a closed position. The invention provides a looped inflow-outflow passageway system for using high-pressure fluid flows to push or expel the excised tissue from the bore in working end where the excised tissue is captured. The looped passageway system is coupled to a remote pressurization source.

    • A surgical system for controlled application of ultrasound energy to engaged tissue volumes for creating effective biological welds or seals in tissue. The invention provides an ultrasound transmission assembly including piezoelectric elements coupled to an elongate waveguide that is reciprocatable in an interior of an introducer. The reciprocatable waveguide assembly of the invention is adapted to have multiple functionality: (i) to couple ultrasound energy to both opposing jaws to thereby deliver energy to both sides of engaged tissues to create uniform thermal weld effects; (ii) to apply very high compressive forces to captured tissues over the length of elongate jaws by engaging substantially the entire length of the jaws, and (iii) to transect the captured tissues contemporaneous with the delivery of energy to create the thermal weld. The invention further provides for use of other energy sources to deliver thermal energy to tissue, for example microwave energy, Rf energy and laser energy, either in combination with ultrasound energy or independently.

    • A system for occlusion of aneurysms comprising a class of polymer embolic elements that carry a conductive material to provide the element with a specified resistivity. The embolic element is introduced into a targeted vascular malformation from a catheter sleeve that carries an electrode arrangement at its distal terminus. After introducing any selected length of the embolic element into the vascular malformation to mechanically occlude the malformation, the physician delivers electrical current within a first selected power range to the electrode at the catheter terminus. The electrical current flows to the embolic element wherein the specified resistivity of the element controllably causes a selected thickness of coagulum to form about the surface of the embolic element to more fully occupy the volume of the malformation with occlusive material. A controller and feedback circuitry allow the embolic element to be maintained at a selected temperature to insure even build-up of the desired coagulative layer about the electrode, without risk of creating hot-spots within the aneurysm. Thereafter, the physician delivers electrical current at second higher power level to electrode arrangement to cause the embolic element to act as a fuse at the catheter terminus to divide any selected length of deployed embolic element from the remainder of the embolic element still within the catheter sleeve.
