At least some of the example embodiment are methods including: applying RF energy between a first electrode and a second electrode, the first and second electrodes define an interstice; flowing an electrically conductive fluid through a first nozzle and a second nozzle of the first electrode, the first nozzle defines a first spray direction, the second nozzle defines a second spray direction, and a first angle between the first spray direction and the second spray direction is 180 angular degrees or less measured through the interstice; flowing an electrically conductive fluid through a third nozzle and a fourth nozzle of the second electrode, the third nozzle defines a third spray direction, the fourth nozzle defines a fourth spray direction, and a second angle between the third spray direction and the fourth spray direction is 180 angular degrees or less measured through the interstice.

A current generator for a medical treatment system is disclosed herein. In one example, the medical treatment system can include a cable and a current generator. The cable can include a distal portion that couples to a medical device and a proximal portion. The proximal portion of the cable can include a first and second conductor, with each conductor having an exposed contact region. The current generator can releasably couple to the cable to deliver an electrical signal. The current generator can include an inner chamber that can receive at least a portion of the cable. The current generator can also include first and second electrical connectors, which can electrically connect to the conductors. The current generator can also include a cable guide that can assist with position the cable within the inner chamber and a cable lock that can lock a part of the cable in position.

An electrosurgical system includes an electrosurgical attachment having a plug with an indicator. The system may also include an electrosurgical generator having a port configured to couple to the plug. The port may include a detection circuit having: a light emitting device configured to illuminate the indicator with a light and an optical module configured to measure the light reflected by the indicator and determine a color of the indicator. The system may also include a controller configured to identify a type of the electrosurgical attachment based on the color of the indicator.

A surgical system that illuminates a surgical site using one or more illumination means is powered by radiofrequency energy produced by an electrosurgical generator. Illumination may occur whether or not current is being delivered from an active electrode to target tissue.

The present application relates to a cannula, comprising a cannula body with a cannula tube and a body part attached to the proximal end of the cannula tube, a control clip having a mounting body with at least one control element, said control clip being attachable laterally on the body part to form a first configuration. In addition, the present applications relates to a cannula body, a contact clip and a control clip of a cannula.

A surgical instrument includes an outer tube configured to be gripped by a user, and a needle slidably disposed within the outer tube. The needle includes a needle lumen, a distal needle tip configured to pierce tissue, and an electrode disposed at the distal needle tip. The needle lumen opens to the distal needle tip such that the distal needle tip is configured to deliver fluid from the needle lumen to tissue. The electrode is operable to deliver RF energy to tissue for ablating the tissue. The needle is translatable relative to the outer tube between a proximal retracted position in which the distal needle tip is housed coaxially within the outer tube, and a distal extended position in which the distal needle tip is exposed from the outer tube and configured to pierce tissue.

An energy-delivery device (10) includes a handle body (12), an antenna assembly (14) extending distally from the handle body (12), and a transmission line (16) configured to be detachably coupled to the antenna assembly (14).

A method for adjusting the operation of a surgical instrument using machine learning in a surgical suite is disclosed.

An auxiliary return system for use with a bipolar electrosurgical device includes a tissue guard defining an open proximal end, an open distal end, and a lumen extending therethrough between the open proximal end and the open distal end. A ground plate is disposed along an inner peripheral surface of the lumen and is operably coupled to a first end of a ground wire extending from the tissue guard. A coupling is included having a bore defined therein for receiving a cable from an electrosurgical device therethrough, the cable including active and ground leads. The coupling has a flange extending therefrom defining a receptacle therein configured to operably receive a plug connected to a second end of the ground wire. The receptacle is configured to provide electrical continuity between the ground lead disposed within the cable and the plug coupled to the ground wire which, in turn, provides electrical continuity to the ground plate.

A treatment tool includes: a sheath; a treatment portion that is capable of treating a living tissue and is provided at a distal end of the sheath; a first driver and a second driver that are inserted in the sheath and are capable of driving the treatment portion; and a holder that is inserted in the sheath, and holds the first driver and the second driver. The holder includes a groove in which the first and second driver are inserted, and an intervening portion provided in the groove and arranged between the first driver and the second driver in a cross section perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the groove that extends from a distal end to a proximal end of the holder.
