Definitions
- the invention relates to an electrosurgical system, a method of operating an electrosurgical instrument, an electrosurgical instrument for use in an electrosurgical system, and a generator for operating an electrosurgical instrument.
- Electrosurgical systems and instruments for this purpose are known, for example from US Pat. Nos. 5,931,836 and DE 10 2009 041 329 A1.
- an electrosurgical instrument is connected to a generator for operation.
- DE 100 57 585 A1 describes an instrument on which instrument-specific configuration data are stored.
- the existing systems, methods, instruments and generators for operating electrosurgical instruments offer several advantages, but further improvements are desirable.
- an electrosurgical system comprising an electrosurgical instrument, a generator, which is designed to operate the electrosurgical instrument, a memory element, on which at least one user-relevant information, which represents at least one operating manual for the electrosurgical instrument, is stored, and a display, which is adapted to display the operation-relevant information, wherein the system is adapted to transmit the operation-relevant information to the display.
- the system according to the invention is based on the recognition that improvements can be achieved if user-relevant information on an electrosurgical instrument is stored on a memory element of the system. In the systems known from the prior art operating instructions are attached to the instrument in paper form.
- the user manuals in paper form are often perceived by users of the systems as part of the delivery packaging and disposed of after unpacking the instrument.
- manuals are often archived. This procedure means that the operating instructions are not available at all, if necessary, for example during a clinical procedure, or only after prior consultation of the archive.
- the user-relevant information must then either be newly determined (in case of disposal or loss) or requested from an archive. Both are time-consuming and represent a considerable risk for the patient to be treated. Missing or misaligned user-relevant information can lead to incorrect operation of the instruments, which is also associated with considerable risks for the patient.
- the system according to the invention solves these problems and challenges by virtue of the fact that the information relevant for operation within the system is stored electronically on a memory element of the system and can be called up there immediately and at any time.
- the retrieved information is displayed on a display of the system and can thus be interpreted and applied by a user of the system (for example, a treating physician). A misallocation can be safely avoided.
- the user-relevant information is provided in electronic form on a memory element.
- This has the advantage that the Handling of the information is improved. For example, search functions and interactions can be made possible by a computer-based provision and processing of the information relevant to the operation of the display.

Additionally or alternatively, the generator preferably comprises a high frequency generator for providing a high frequency signal to two output contacts of the generator. For the operation of the electrosurgical instrument, the generator provides at its output contacts an operating signal which is processed by the electrosurgical instrument. The transmission of the operating signal to the instrument takes place, for example, via a cable connection of the instrument.
- the cable connection preferably comprises a plug which can be plugged into the output contacts.
- the operating signal preferably comprises the exciter signal and the high-frequency signal.
- the excitation signal is converted by means of an ultrasonic transducer present in the instrument into an ultrasonic vibration, which can be used to treat the tissue of a patient.
- the high frequency signal may be provided in accordance with the present invention for monopolar and / or bipolar applications.
