摘要:
A phacoemulsification system and method, and a surgical foot pedal device, system and method. The present invention may include a console comprising a plurality of modes for at least one physically associated surgical instrument, and a foot pedal communicatively associated with said console and suitable for varying ones of the plurality of modes. The foot pedal may include a housing comprising the communicative association, and comprising at least one potentiometer and at least two top switches for the varying of the ones of the plurality of modes, a treadle rotatably mounted within the housing and suitable for depressing the at least one potentiometer, and at least two side switches movably associated with the treadle for the varying of the ones of the plurality of modes.
摘要:
A living tissue to be treated is brought into contact with a first high-frequency electrode (110) having high thermal conductivity. A substrate (132) on which an electric resistance pattern (134) is formed is longer than the first electrode (110). The substrate (132) includes an end portion projected from the first high-frequency electrode (110). A first lead connection portion (136) electrically connected to the electric resistance pattern (134) is formed on the projected end portion. The substrate (132) is pasted to the first electrode (110) by use of a high-thermal-conductivity heat-resistant adhesive sheet (120). A lead line for applying power to the electric resistance pattern (134) is arranged in the first lead connection portion (136) where it extends in the longitudinal direction of the first electrode (110) and on the side close to the first electrode (110).

An illuminated microsurgical instrument is provided herein that includes a microsurgical instrument having a tubular member arranged to treat patient tissue at a surgical site, the tubular member having a distal tip, an inner surface, and an outer surface. The inner surface defines a lumen. The outer surface has a notch formed therein. The illuminated microsurgical instrument further includes an optical fiber arranged to deliver light to the surgical site. The optical fiber includes a proximal end arranged to receive a light beam from a light source and also includes a curved distal end arranged to emit light adjacent to the distal tip. A portion of the curved distal end is positioned within the notch and curves away from the tubular member.

摘要:
A method is disclosed including immersing electrodes disposed on a distal end of an electrosurgical wand, the immersing in a cavity defined within walls of a first material, the cavity comprising a conductive fluid different than the first material, and the electrodes comprising a first electrode and a second electrode. The method further includes applying a voltage across the first electrode and the second electrode, the first and second electrode spaced apart on the distal end of the wand such that the conductive fluid resides between the first and second electrodes. The method further includes measuring an impedance of the conductive fluid between the first and second electrodes; and determining temperature of the conductive fluid based on the measured impedance. The method further includes forming plasma proximate to an active electrode distinct from the first and second electrode, the plasma created based on voltage applied to the active electrode.
摘要:
A control console for a powered surgical tool. The console includes a transformer that supplies the drive signal to the surgical tool. A linear amplifier with active resistors selectively ties the ends of the transformer primary winding between ground and the open circuit state. Feedback voltages from the transformer windings regulate the resistances of the active resistors.

A microscope insert includes a camera, a display device, a beam splitter, and a processing unit. The camera is configured to receive a first portion of first light through a microscope from an object and generate a signal representing an image of the object. The display device is configured to generate a graphical representation of information relevant to the object and project second light representing the graphical representation. The beam splitter is configured to direct a second portion of the first light from the object and a first portion of the second light to a viewing device for simultaneously viewing the object and the information by a user. The processing unit is configured to track motions of the object based on the image of the object and control the display device to adjust the graphical representation according to the motions of the object.
摘要:
The present invention pertains to programming a foot pedal and switches located therewith that is used with a medical device and/or medical device system. A user may select any switch or directional movement available on the foot pedal for programming by activating the switch and/or moving a treadle located on the foot pedal or by selecting a foot pedal feature on a display. The programming options available for the selected switch or directional movement are displayed on the display screen. Using the foot pedal, the display screen, voice command or combinations thereof, the user can navigate through different options to select one or more options and confirm the chosen option(s) for the particular switch or directional movement. The control and feel of the movement of the treadle and/or switch provides the user with the ability to program custom settings that suit the user's foot position(s) and/or particular style of surgery.
