6. When this equipment is operated:
a. A Patient Return Pad (dispersive pad) of adequate surface area MUST be properly attached to
the patient or the risk of accidental burns will exist.
b. The Patient Return Pad (dispersive pad) should be placed as close as possible to the site of
use of the active accessory – but MUST NEVER be placed so as to allow the patient’s heart to
be in the pathway from the active accessory to the return electrode!
7. The user should thoroughly understand the principles and use of radio frequency (RF) current before
using this equipment. This understanding is essential to avoid the hazard of shocks or burns to the
user and/or the patient.
8. The instructions for use described in this manual must be followed; otherwise, compromised safety,
malfunction, injury to the operator and/or patient, or costly damage to the Electrosurgical Generator
may occur.
9. There are no user-serviceable parts within the housing. Repairs to this equipment should only be
performed by authorized CooperSurgical service personnel. For service information, please contact
CooperSurgical (refer to Section 15).
5.6 Electrosurgical Procedures
This section provides only general information about the use of electrosurgical devices. Only the user
can evaluate the clinical factors involved with each patient and determine if the use of this equipment is
indicated. The user must then decide on the specific technique and procedure that will accomplish the
desired clinical effect.
WARNING
Electrosurgical generators are designed to allow the controlled destruction of tissue and are
inherently dangerous if operated improperly.
REPORTED PROBLEMS DUE TO IMPROPER OPERATION DURING ELECTROSURGICAL
PROCEDURES HAVE INCLUDED:
•
Inadvertent activation with resultant tissue damage at the wrong site and/or
equipment damage
•
Alternate current pathways resulting in burns where the patient or physician or assistant
is in contact with exposed metal
•
Explosions caused by electrosurgical sparking in a flammable gas mixture (i.e., explosive
anesthetic gases and the inappropriate use of alcohol and other flammable liquids)
•
Perforation and massive hemorrhage
A proper patient return pad pathway is extremely important during any monopolar
electrosurgical procedure. Every effort must be made to ensure that, throughout the
electrosurgical procedure, an adequate surface area is provided and remains in proper
contact with the patient to reduce the current density below a level that might cause
inadvertent tissue damage where the patient return pad has been applied.
5.7 Turning on the Smoke Evacuator and LEEP System 1000
®
Electrosurgical Generator
NOTE: Numbers in blue boxes refer to those component parts shown in Figure 6.
Push the POWER switch , located under the Electrosurgical Generator (for the Smoke Evacuator), to
the “On” position. This will start the Smoke Evacuator.
Turn ON the Electrosurgical Generator using the power switch . The Electrosurgical Generator
automatically performs a SELF-TEST that checks RAM memory, EPROM memory, supply voltage, signal
modulation and the following displays: function selector green lights, digital display, cut and coagulant yellow
light, coagulation blue light, and the audible signal. When the Electrosurgical Generator passes SELF-TEST,
the display will show current software revision, i.e., r2A, r2B, for several seconds, then will go blank.
