CAUTION: Verify the VAPR Generator display
matches the VAPR Electrode default setting as
specified above. If the Generator display does not
match the Electrode default settings refer to User
Manual for further instructions.
6. Using arthroscopic guidance, carefully insert the
non-activated Electrode into the joint cavity portal
under direct vision. Wherever possible, use an
instrument cannula for the access portal.
Performing Coagulation of soft tissue with VAPR T
Thermal Electrodes
1. VAPR T Electrodes will automatically default to
low power levels suitable for thermal coagulation.
If alternate power levels are desired, adjust the
VAPR Generator to the desired settings using
the BLUE and YELLOW arrows on the front of
the VAPR Generator and proceed with thermal
coagulation as desired. Use the lowest power
possible, in the range of 5 to 30 watts, to achieve
the desired end effect.
Changing VAPR Electrodes During Surgery
1. Carefully remove the Electrode from the joint
cavity. Do not withdraw the Electrode while power
is being applied.
2. Unlock the connector assembly and disengage
the Electrode connector and Handpiece.
Check that the Generator displays the symbol
“INSERT ELECTRODE.” (Note: Not applicable on
Electrodes with integrated cable. In such cases,
unplug the electrode from the generator.)
3. Fit a new sterile Electrode as previously
described. If the new Electrode has different
default settings to the previous Electrode, check
that the Generator display matches the Electrode
default settings specified on the package insert. If
the new Electrode has identical default settings to
the previous Electrode, the Generator will retain
the settings previously displayed prior to changing
the Electrode. If the Generator display does not
conform to the above description refer to User
Manual for further instructions.
After Surgery
1. Disassemble the VAPR Electrode and VAPR
Handpiece. (Note: Not applicable on Electrodes
with integrated cable.)
2. Disconnect the Electrode/Handpiece from the
Generator. The Generator will now display
the symbol “CONNECT CABLE.” Disconnect
by pulling the plug body. Do not pull on the
cable. Pulling the cable may cause damage to
the device.
3. The Generator can be left in idle mode between
surgical procedures. Turn off the Generator at the
conclusion of a surgical day.
4. Dispose of the single-use Electrode(s).
5. Prepare reusable accessories for cleaning
and sterilization.
