摘要： A radio frequency (RF) device for use in electrosurgery is provided. The RF device comprises a flexible support member having an actuator passage extending therethrough and a flexible actuator member at least partially disposed within the actuator passage. An insulator housing is connected on its proximal side to the distal end of the actuator so that when the flexible actuator member is rotated, the insulator housing rotates about a rotation axis through the distal actuator end. The device also comprises at least one electrode extending distally from the insulator housing, the at least one electrode having first and second energy transmitting surfaces configured so that if the first energy transmitting surface is positioned to deliver electrical current with the insulator housing in a first angular orientation, rotation of the insulator housing to a second orientation positions the second energy transmitting for transfer of electrical current.

摘要： An occlusion clip is disclosed that comprises an upper occlusion member having substantially parallel first and second upper occlusion arms each having proximal and distal upper occlusion arm ends. The first and second upper occlusion arms define an upper main body width dimension. An upper arcuate portion connects the first and second upper occlusion arms at their distal ends. The occlusion clip also comprises a lower occlusion member having substantially parallel first and second lower occlusion arms each having proximal and distal lower occlusion arm ends. The first and second lower occlusion arms define a lower main body width dimension. A lower arcuate portion connects the first and second lower occlusion arms at their distal ends. The occlusion clip further comprises a torsion spring connecting the proximal end of the first lower occlusion arm to the proximal end of the second upper occlusion arm. The torsion spring biases the upper and lower occlusion members toward a closed position wherein the upper occlusion member is in contact with the lower occlusion member.

摘要： An occlusion clip is disclosed that comprises an occlusion portion having an upper single element occlusion member having proximal and distal upper member ends and a lower single element occlusion member having proximal and distal lower member ends. The lower single element occlusion member and the upper single element occlusion member combine to define an occlusion member plane.

摘要： A surgical instrument and method for facilitating the capture of objects during surgery are provided. The surgical instrument comprises a flexible tube having a proximal tube end and a distal tube end, the flexible tube defining a cable passageway and being configured for insertion of at least a distal portion of the flexible tube into a body cavity of a patient. The surgical instrument further comprises a flexible cable having a proximal cable end and a distal cable end. At least a portion of the flexible cable is slidably disposed in the cable passageway. A snare loop having a loop member is attached to the distal cable end. The snare loop and the cable are adapted so that the snare loop can be selectively retracted within the cable passageway by sliding the flexible cable proximally within the cable passageway. The snare loop and the cable are also adapted so that at least a portion of the snare loop can be selectively extended from the distal tube end by sliding the flexible cable distally within the cable passageway. The loop member is adapted for selectively encircling and engaging at least a portion of an object in the body cavity. The system also comprises a steering tether having a proximal tether end and a distal tether end. The distal tether end is attached to the loop member so that application of a tensile force to the proximal tether end causes the snare loop to deform in a predetermined manner, thereby facilitating a maneuvering of the snare loop.
