Random pinout catheter
A catheter is disclosed comprising: a connector including a plurality of first contacts and one or more second contacts; a shaft including a plurality of electrodes, each electrode being coupled to a different one of the plurality of first contacts; a memory coupled to at least one of the second contacts, wherein the memory is configured to: store a pinout map identifying an order in which the plurality of electrodes is coupled to the plurality of first contacts; and provide the pinout map to an external device via one or more of the second contacts after the connector is coupled to the external device.
ELECTROSURGICAL GENERATOR WITH DETECTION OF INSTRUMENT PLUG-IN
Electrosurgical generator for providing a high-frequency alternating voltage to an electrosurgical instrument, including a control unit and an inverter for high voltage that generates a high-frequency alternating voltage fed to an output socket for the instrument. A detection unit is provided that includes a capacitive detector configured for detecting a capacitance of a plugged-in cable of the instrument. Thereby a parasitic capacitance induced by the instrument's cable can be detected. The capacitance is however low picofarad range and difficult to detect, further complicated by the requirement of galvanic separation for patient safety. However, the invention realized that just a qualitative detection is sufficient to determine whether the instrument's cable is being plugged in. The invention provides simple and efficient measurement circuit for such detection. Thereby, a safe and cost-effective plugging-in detection is realized.
Physiological signal monitoring device and sensor holder thereof
