    • An electrocautery device is disclosed. In accordance with one aspect of the invention, the electrocautery electrode/tip is provided with a hollow, conductive tube terminating at its distal end in a ball point type tip. Fluid, preferably conductive fluid, is applied to the proximal end of the hollow electrode/tip, and expelled from the distal end thereof during electrocautery. The ball point distal tip allows the distal tip to be directly applied to the tissue and "rolled" or slid along the tissue. This allows the distal tip to be moved across the tissue without dragging or snagging on the tissue. In addition, the conductive fluid expelled from the distal tip further lubricates the distal tip as it moves across the tissue. If conductive fluid is used, the conductive fluid emanating from the electrode/tip conducts the RF electrocautery energy away from the distal tip so that it is primarily the fluid, rather than the distal tip that actually accomplishes the cauterizing of tissue. That is, the fluide serves as a "virtual" electrocautery electrode. Since it is the fluid, rather than the distal tip that cauterizes, coagulates and ablates, no burns or perforations are made to the tissue, reducing the amount of debris at the site. Also, the flow of fluid through the electrode/tip tends to keep the distal tip clean and cool.
    • 公开了电灼装置。 根据本发明的一个方面,电烙电极/尖端设置有中空的导电管,其末端终止于球形尖端。 流体,优选导电流体被​​施加到中空电极/尖端的近端,并且在电烙术期间从其远端排出。 球头远侧末端允许远侧末端直接施加到组织并且“滚动”或沿着组织滑动。 这允许远侧末端移动穿过组织而不会在组织上拖动或阻塞。 此外,从远侧末梢排出的导电流体在远端处移动穿过组织时进一步润滑远端。 如果使用导电流体,则从电极/尖端发出的导电流体将RF电灼能远离远端尖端传导,使得其主要是流体,而不是实际完成组织烧灼的远端。 也就是说,氟化物用作“虚拟”电烙电极。 由于它是流体,而不是灼烧,凝结和消融的远端,不会对组织造成烧伤或穿孔,减少了现场的碎屑量。 此外,通过电极/尖端的流体流趋向于保持远端尖端清洁和冷却。

    • A design and method of manufacture are disclosed for an electrosurgical electrode (10) with a silicone coating. The coating resists the build-up of eschar. The silicone material is thick enough in the flat area of the blade to withstand the electrosurgical voltage without breakdown. The electrosurgical current path is primarily through the blade edges (15) and tip. The flat of the blade remains insulated under most conditions. The relatively thick coating also provides high tear strength and added durability. The composition of the electrode (10) coatings may include silicone elastomers (11) in the form of adhesives, dispersions, or liquid rubbers. The coating composition may also contain adhesion promoters, heat stabilizers, plasticizers, release enhancers, cross-linking agents, and colorants. Several methods of manufacture are illustrated by way of examples.

    • A constant power control circuit (107) for an electrosurgical generator (101) and a method for maintaining the electrical power output of an electrosurgical generator (101) at a generally constant value throughout a given tissue impedance range are disclosed. The constant power control circuit (107) and the method recognize and use the unique and simple linear characteristics associated with certain electrosurgical generator (101) designs to monitor and control the electrical power output without having to calculate or monitor the actual output power. The constant power control circuit (107) includes a current sampling circuit (115), a linear conversion circuit (117), and a feedback correction circuit (119). The constant power control circuit (107) may also include protection circuitry that prevents the electrosurgical generator (101) from being over-driven during high and/or low impedance loading (121), and reduces the severity of exit sparking by providing a quick response to high impedance indications while nonetheless maintaining increased power levels throughout a preset, nominal impedance range. The constant power control circuit (107) and method may be included as an integral part of the overall electrosurgical generator's (101) circuitry, or may be embodied as a separate unit that connects to, and controls, an electrosurgical generator (101). The constant power control circuit (107) and method may be embodied through a variety of analog and/or digital circuit components or arrangements, including software running on computational and memory circuitry.

    • Electrosurgical energy is used in combination with a surgical tool (12) to seal vessels and vascular tissue of a patient (13). One of the important advances of the present system is that is can effectively seal vessels of a patient (13) without leaving any foreign material in the body of the patient (13). The present system is also capable of sealing vessels as large as ten millimeters in diameter. Another advantage of the present system is that the surgeon can visually inspect the integrity of the seal. The invention works with a combination of pressure and controlled application of electrosurgical energy to achieve the desired result. A surgical tool (12) is used to grasp and apply an appropriate amount of closure force to the tissue of the patient (13). The tool is capable of conducting electrosurgical energy to the tissue concurrently with the application of the closure force. A method for sealing vessels and vascular tissue of a patient (13) includes the steps of applying pressure to the vessels and other tissues of the patient (13); applying a first level of electrosurgical power to the vessels and other tissues sufficient to melt proteins in the tissue; applying a second level of electrosurgical power to the vessels and other tissues sufficient to cause desiccation without charring; reducing the electrosurgical power substantially to zero for a length of time sufficient to allow the vessels and other tissues to cool into a new compressed form; and relieving the pressure on the tissue.
