Title:
超音波外科用器具
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP5323689
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
An ultrasonic clamp coagulator assembly (100) that is configured to permit selective cutting, coagulation and clamping of tissue during surgical procedures. An elongated portion (71) of the instrument can be configured for endoscopic applications and has an outside diameter of less than 6mm. The construction includes a clamping mechanism (81), including a clamp arm (56) pivotally mounted at the distal portion of the instrument, which is specifically configured to create a desired level of tissue clamping forces. The clamping mechanism includes a two-piece pad design and pad material that enables the higher tissue clamping forces and a force-limiting mechanism that effectively smoothes out abusive tissue forces.
