摘要: A medical device including one or more components positioned to contact contaminants during use of the medical device. The one or more components including one or more limited-use portions transitionable upon use from an initial state, wherein the limited-use portion(s) exhibits a clean appearance, to a used state, wherein the limited-use portion(s) exhibits a contaminated appearance that visually indicates to a user that the at least one component is not further usable.

摘要: A bipolar forceps includes a mechanical forceps including first and second shafts each having a jaw member extending from a distal end thereof and a handle disposed at a proximal end thereof for effecting movement of the jaw members relative to one another about a pivot. A disposable housing is configured to releasably couple to at least one of the shafts and an electrode assembly is associated with the disposable housing. The electrode assembly includes electrodes releasably coupleable to the jaw members. At least one of the electrodes includes a knife channel configured to receive a knife blade therethrough to cut tissue grasped between the jaw members. A switch is configured to initiate delivery of electrosurgical energy from the source of electrosurgical energy to the electrodes. An actuation mechanism is configured to selectively advance the knife blade through the knife channel to cut tissue.

摘要: A method of manufacturing an end effector assembly including first and second energizable portions configured to supply energy to tissue is provided. The method includes forming a substrate including first and second portions interconnected by a connector portion. The substrate is formed as a single integrated component. The method further includes engaging the substrate with an insulative member, and removing the connector portion of the substrate to electrically insulate the first and second portions from one another.

摘要: An surgical enclosure includes electronics including at least one visual indicator and at least a first casing component enclosing the electronics therein. The first casing component is formed from a substantially transparent material and includes a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is treated to define a first finish that reduces transparency of the first portion. The second portion defines a greater transparency relative to the first portion to enable visualization of the at least one visual indicator therethrough.

摘要: A bipolar forceps includes a mechanical forceps including first and second shafts each having a jaw member extending from a distal end thereof and a handle disposed at a proximal end thereof for effecting movement of the jaw members relative to one another about a pivot. A disposable housing is configured to releasably couple to at least one of the shafts and an electrode assembly has electrodes releasably coupleable to the jaw members and adapted to connect to a source of electrosurgical energy to allow selective conduction of electrosurgical energy through tissue held therebetween to effect a tissue seal. An electrically conductive cutting element is disposed on at least one of the electrodes and is adapted to connect to the source of electrosurgical energy to allow selective conduction of electrosurgical energy through tissue held between the electrodes to effect a tissue cut.

摘要: A jaw member includes an insulative member and a substrate. The substrate is formed as a single, integral component that has first and second side portions interconnected by a connector portion. The connector portion has first and second side portions that are interconnected by an arc-shaped portion. The connector portion is configured to be removed before use of the jaw member such that the first and second portions are electrically insulated from one another.

摘要: A system includes an energy source and a surgical device. The energy source has a receptacle configured to delivery energy to the surgical device through a receptacle. The surgical device is configured to deliver the energy to tissue. The surgical device includes a plug selectively engagable to the receptacle to couple the surgical device to the energy source. The plug includes a prong configured to mechanically transition from a condition permitting engagement of the plug and the receptacle to another condition inhibiting engagement of the plug with the receptacle upon reaching a predetermined usage threshold.
