Setting the Output Power
When you use the CUSA handpiece with CEM nosecone for ultrasonic
electrosurgery, only Low cut or Desiccate 1 coag are available when you
activate the handpiece.
To verify or change the Low cut power setting:
To increase the power, press the yellow up arrow (
∆
) button. To
decrease the power, press the yellow down arrow (
∇
) button. The
maximum cut power is 100 watts.
To verify or change the Desiccate 1 coag power setting:
To increase the power, press the blue up arrow (
∆
) button. To decrease
the power, press the blue down arrow (
∇
) button. The maximum
coag power is 70 watts.
Simultaneous Coag with a CUSA System
To use a CUSA handpiece with CEM nosecone for simultaneous coag,
connect the handpiece to the Monopolar 1/CEM Instrument receptacle.
Then connect a monopolar instrument to the Monopolar 2 Instrument
receptacle. During simultaneous coag, only Desiccate coag is available; the
maximum power is limited to 70 watts.
Changing the Mode
Verify the selected mode with the surgeon. You cannot change the mode
while the generator is activated.
To change the mode, press the desired bipolar, cut, or coag mode button.
The indicator above that button illuminates green. You can activate only
one mode at a time.
When you change modes within a function (bipolar, cut, coag), the power
setting remains the same unless it exceeds the maximum for the new
mode. In that case, it reverts to the maximum for the new mode. For
example, if you set the power to 250 watts for Pure cut, when you select
Blend, the power setting changes to 200 watts, the maximum for Blend. If,
however, you set the power to 65 watts in Desiccate, when you select
Fulgurate, the power setting does not change because it falls within that
mode’s range.
Changing the Power Setting
Verify the power settings for the selected mode with the surgeon. You can
change the power setting when the generator is on, including when it is
activated.
To increase the power, press the up arrow (
∆
) button for the selected mode.
Caution
Set power levels to the lowest setting before testing an accessory.
