摘要:
A tube set for use with a surgical pump and tool system to supply irrigation fluid to the system is provided. The tube set includes a cassette for insertion into the surgical pump to engage a peristaltic pump of the system that is concealed within the surgical pump. The cassette includes a front, first and second spaced apart opposed sides that extend from the front, and a rear opposite the front that extends between the sides. The cassette includes a locking finger having a retention feature for engaging a retention feature integral with the surgical pump. The locking finger is movably attached to the first side to move towards the second side so that, when the locking finger is so moved, the locking finger retention feature disengages from the surgical pump retention feature.

An electrosurgical system preferably used for denervation procedures of nerve tissue has a control unit and a pluggable electrode assembly. The electrode assembly has a disposable cannula and a preservable supply electrode assembly. The cannula has a tubular body that projects axially from a pointed distal end for piercing tissue to a proximal end engaged to a first coupling assembly of the cannula. The supply electrode assembly has a second coupling assembly and a supply electrode that projects axially and removably into a through-bore of the body when in an operating state. The first and second coupling assemblies are configured to releasably interlock to prevent clockwise and counterclockwise rotation of the supply electrode in the body.

An electrosurgical system preferably used for denervation procedures of nerve tissue has a control unit and a pluggable electrode assembly. The electrode assembly has a preferably disposable cannula and a preservable supply electrode assembly. The cannula has a tubular body that projects axially from a preferably pointed distal end for piercing tissue to a proximal end engaged to a first coupling assembly of the cannula. The body carries a first contact exposed directly to the nerve tissue and connected electrically to a terminal of the first coupling assembly. The supply electrode assembly has a second coupling assembly and a supply electrode that projects axially and removably into a through-bore of the body when the tool is in an operating state. The second coupling assembly carries a terminal that abuts the first coupling assembly when the coupling assemblies are mated. Preferably the supply electrode carries a temperature sensor for temperature measurement of the targeted tissue and processing by the control unit. Preferably, the electrode assembly also includes a stylet having a rod that fits into the through-bore of the body when the supply electrode assembly is removed and the tool is in a tissue penetrating state.

摘要:
A waste collection and disposal system for use in health care facilities is provided. The system includes a mobile waste collection unit for moving between use areas in the health care facility to collect waste material generated during medical procedures including body fluids, body tissues, saline, etc. The waste collection unit includes stacked upper and lower waste containers for receiving the waste material. During use, the upper waste container can be emptied into the lower waste container for temporary storage. In addition, different vacuum levels can be provided in the waste containers during complex procedures. Once a user desires to empty the waste collection unit, the waste collection unit is wheeled to a docking station. At the docking station, the waste material is off-loaded to a waste drain and the waste collection unit is cleaned and rinsed for further use.
