When not in use, place the Probe in a clean, dry, non-conductive and highly
visible area, and not in contact with the patient. Inadvertent activation while
in contact with the patient may cause burns.
Do not wrap the power cord of the Probe handpiece, Footswitch, or
Generator around metal objects. Wrapping cables around metal objects
may induce currents that could lead to shock, fire or injury to the patient or
surgical personnel.
Only use Arthrex RF devices (Probes) that have been developed by
Arthrex specifically for the Synergy
RF
console.
Introducing the Probe into tissue without an instrument cannula may
result in tissue injury and/or product damage.
Do not insert, withdraw or touch the active tip of the probe when
energy is being applied to it.
Do not use the probe as a lever to enlarge the surgical site or gain
access to tissue.
Observe extreme caution when using electrosurgery in close
proximity to or in direct contact with metal objects or metal implants.
The majority of arthroscopes and instruments are metal. Do not
activate the probe when any portion of the metal tip is in contact with
another metal object; localized heating of the metal tip and the
adjacent metal object may result in damage to the patient and or
operator.
The probe tip should be completely surrounded by irrigation solution
during use. A continuous flow of irrigation fluid is recommended.
Fluid flow assists in removing ablated tissue, as well as reducing the
temperature of the probe tip between activations .
Insert the device connector into the console’s receptacle. Align the dots on the
connector and receptacle, so they engage fully.
NOTES:
The disposable RF device (Probe) connector cannot be properly inserted into
the console receptacle if the corresponding black dots are not aligned.
