2 Contraindications of Sonicision
Pushes current through impedance
What is Voltage?
Ligasure can be used on these generators
What is Forcetriad and FT10
Composition of surgical smoke
What is 95% water, 5% cellular debris
Ligasure Verbatim
A unique combination of pressure and energy that can seal vessels, tissue bundles and lymphatics up to and including 7mm in diameter to create a permanent, flexible seal that can withstand at least 3X systolic pressure.
What is Sonicision
What is a device that takes electrical energy and converts it to mechanical movement enabling the active blade to simultaneously coagulate and cut.
Difference between monopolar and bipolar circuits
monopolar requires a grounding pad to complete the circuit. Bipolar; energy flows between the 2 tines of the forceps
Tissuefect Tissue Sensing Technology verbatim
What is monitors changes in tissue impedance and adjusts energy output in real-time to deliver the appropriate amount of energy for the desired tissue effect.
2 types of suction on the lap smoke evacuator
What is passive and active
A proprietary nonstick coating
What is Nano coating
Vessel Indication for Sonicision Curve Jaw
What is up to and including 5mm
Function of the grounding pad
Valleylab Mode
What is a Coag Waveform that provides a similiar speed of cut mode, while delivering the hemostasis of Coag, with the benefit of less thermal spread and eschar build up.
On the Rapidvac, what is the filter life
What is 25 hours
How the Ligasure technology works
What is: uses advanced RF energy to generate heat within tissue to drive off water and denature proteins. With pressure, the opposing layers of denatured proteins fuse together.
The 4 ways a surgeon can control ultrasonic dissection
What is tension, compression, min/max mode, activation time
The default setting of Monopolar on the Ligasure L Hook?
Valleylab mode 15 Watts
Difference between the 3 green bars on the Forcetriad and the purple wheel on the FT10
Tissuefect measures tissue impedance 434K/s on the FT10 (compared to 3,333 t/s). The delivery of energy on the FT10 is so precise that the adjustments are made nearly instantaneously so there is no need to change settings.
On the Rapidvac; what are the 3 ways to utilize smoke evacuation
What is footswitch, Rapidvac+ and continuous
