A cooling radiofrequency ablation probe for delivering electrical and thermal energy to tissue of a patient's body is provided. The probe comprises a handle having an upper portion, a lower portion, and a Luer connector. The probe further comprises an extended electrocap assembly interfacing with one end of the handle, and a cable-tubing assembly interfacing with another end of the handle. The cable-tubing assembly includes an electrical cable that terminates at an electrical connector and a dual-lumen fluid tubing that terminates at inlet and outlet fluid connectors. An active tip of the extended electrocap assembly is configured to deliver the electrical and thermal energy to the tissue of the patient's body.

A medical device system includes an insertion device and a medical device. The insertion device includes an insertion device handle, including a port on a handle body. The insertion device also includes an insertion device shaft extending from the insertion device handle. The insertion device shaft includes a working channel connected to the port. The medical device includes a medical device handle, including a movable handle portion and a stationary handle portion. The movable handle portion includes a ball portion movably positioned within a cavity in the stationary handle portion. The medical device also includes a medical device shaft. The medical device shaft is configured to be delivered through the port in the insertion device handle and through the working channel in the insertion device shaft. Movement of the movable handle portion relative to the stationary handle portion controls movement of a distal portion of the medical device shaft.

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.

Provided are a medical device control apparatus using a handpiece motion and a control method using the same. The medical device control apparatus using the handpiece motion comprises a handpiece which is connected with a medical device body to perform a procedure; a gesture detector which is provided in the handpiece and detects the motion of the handpiece to recognize the gesture of the handpiece; an alarm unit which alarms that a mode of the medical device body is changed from a first state to a second state or parameter values are controlled according to the gesture of the handpiece; control switch which is provided in the handpiece to change the mode of the medical device body or control the parameter values output by the medical device body; and a connection cable which connects the medical device body and the handpiece.

Disclosed is a plasma skin care device including a handpiece, an ozone decomposition module, and a suction fan. The handpiece has a plasma generator and discharges plasma in a state in which a front end portion of the plasma generator is adjacent to skin. The ozone decomposition module is configured to receive and decompose ozone, which is generated when the plasma is discharged, from the handpiece. The suction fan is configured to draw the ozone generated in the handpiece to the ozone decomposition module by suction pressure.

A fractional handpiece and systems thereof for skin treatment include a passively Q-switched laser assembly operatively connected to a pump laser source to receive a pump laser beam having a first wavelength and a beam splitting assembly operable to split a solid beam emitted by the passively Q-switched laser assembly and form an array of micro-beams across a segment of skin. The passively Q-switched laser assembly generates a high power sub-nanosecond pulsed laser beam having a second wavelength.

Various embodiments provide an introducer for introducing an electrosurgical instrument into a body of a patient. The introducer comprises: a tubular member defining a lumen through which the electrosurgical instrument is insertable; and a cooling assembly configured to remove heat from the tubular member. Other embodiments provide an electrosurgical system comprising an electrosurgical instrument and an introducer.

A method of assembling a jaw member of an electrosurgical forceps includes aligning in vertical registration an electrically conductive seal plate, an insulative spacer and a jaw support. The method further includes stacking the seal plate atop the insulative spacer and the jaw support such that a flange depending from the seal plate seats within a corresponding cavity defined within a flange depending from the insulative spacer which, in turn, seats within a cavity defined within the jaw support. The method further includes mechanically securing the seal plate, insulative spacer and jaw support to one another and securing a jaw housing to surround the jaw support, the insulative spacer and the seal plate.

A medical device control handle or catheter includes deflection assembly and at least one of the following: a disk actuator, a lever actuator and a ring actuator for actuating additional puller wires in manipulation of multiple features of the medical device or catheter independently of each other. The disk actuator has a common rotational axis with but is rotationally independent of the deflection assembly. The lever actuator has a separate rotational axis. The ring is mounted outside of the control handle and rotatable relative to the control handle to actuate another puller wire for manipulating another feature of the catheter. Each of the disk, lever and ring actuators are of a design that allows existing control handles and catheters to be readily modified to include these actuators.
