在双极型电外科仪器中使用的电极
背景
1.技术领域
本公开涉及电外科仪器。更具体地,本公开涉及诸如例如血管闭合设备这样的双极型电外科仪器,包括钳口配件,钳口配件包括适合于组织解剖和凝固的电极。
2.背景技术
电外科仪器已经变得由外科医生广泛使用。电外科手术涉及外科程序期间电能和/或电磁能的应用以切割、解剖、烧蚀、凝固、烧灼、闭合或另外处理生物组织。电外科手术典型地使用可操作以输出能量的电外科发生器和包括适合于在电外科程序期间将能量传输到组织部位外科仪器(例如,端部效应器)的手持件来执行。电外科手术可以使用单极型或双极型仪器来执行。
单极型和双极型电外科手术的基本目的在于产生热量以实现期望的组织/临床效果。在单极型电外科手术中,设备使用具有单个、有源电极的仪器将来自电外科发生器的能量递送到组织。在单极型电外科手术中,患者返回电极(也称作接地垫、电烧灼器垫、中性电极或患者板)外部地连接到患者(例如,位于患者大腿或背部上的板),作为完成电外科发生器与患者之间的电气电路的手段。当电外科能量被应用时,能量从有源电极行进到外科部位、通过患者并且到达返回电极。在双极型电外科手术中,有源电极和返回电极功能都在外科部位处执行。双极型电外科设备包括具有相反极性的两个电极,它们为了它们表面之间的电流的应用而彼此位置接近。双极型电外科电流从一个电极行进通过介于中间的组织到达另一个电极以完成电气电路,由此消除对于位于远处的电流返回的需要。双极型仪器通常包括诸如夹持器、切割器、钳子、解剖器等的端部效应器。
钳子利用机械动作来束紧、抓、解剖和/或夹组织。通过利用电外科钳子,外科医生可以利用机械夹紧动作和电外科能量通过加热组织和血管来烧灼、凝固/干燥、闭合和/或分割组织来达到止血目的。双极型电外科钳子利用两个通常相对的电极,电极与端部效应器的内部相对表面可操作地关联并且都电耦合到电外科发生器。在双极型钳子中,端部效应器配件通常包括相对于彼此能够旋转地安装的相对的钳口配件。在双极型配置中,仅被抓在钳口配件之间的组织包括在电气电路中。
通过利用电外科钳子,外科医生可以通过控制经由钳口配件应用到组织的电外科能量的强度、频率和持续时间来烧灼、凝固/干燥和/或闭合组织和/或仅仅减少或减慢出血。在闭合处理期间,诸如应用在相对的钳口配件之间的压力以及钳口配件的导电的组织接触表面(电极)之间的间隙距离这样的机械因素在确定被闭合组织的结果厚度和闭合的有效性时发挥作用。
各种类型的端部效应器配件已经用于使用各种类型的单极型和双极型电外科仪器的各种类型的电外科手术。

该描述可以使用短语“在一个实施例中”、“在实施例中”、“在一些实施例中”或者“在其他实施例中”,这每个可以指根据本公开的相同或不同实施例的一个或多个。
本公开的各种实施例提供适合于闭合、烧灼、凝固/干燥、切割和/或解剖血管和血管组织的电外科仪器。本公开的各种实施例提供具有端部效应器配件的电外科钳子,端部效应器配件包括相对于彼此以相对关系设置的两个钳口配件。本公开的钳口配件的各种实施例包括适合于组织解剖和凝固的一个或多个解剖器电极。本公开的端部效应器配件的实施例可以包括以单侧或双侧配置排列的钳口配件。
包括解剖器电极的本公开的电外科钳子的实施例可以适合于在内窥镜外科程序中使用和/或适合于在开放手术应用中使用。本公开的电外科仪器的实施例可以通过适当的双极型线缆连接到发生器和/或其他适当的电源。虽然下面的描述描述了内窥镜双极型钳子的使用,但是本公开的教导也可以应用于包括钳口配件的各种电外科设备。
这里公开的各种实施例也可以被配置为与机器人外科系统一起工作并且通常称作“远程外科”。这种系统使用各种机器人元件在手术室中帮助外科医生并且允许外科仪器仪表的远程操作(或者部分远程操作)。各种机器人臂、齿轮、凸轮、滑轮、电动和机械马达等可以为此目的而使用并且可以与机器人外科系统一起设计以在手术或治疗的过程期间帮助外科医生。这种机器人系统可以包括远程可操纵系统、自动灵活外科系统、远程灵活外科系统、远程关节连接外科系统、无线外科系统、模块化或选择性可配置的远程操作的外科系统等。
