The Argon Gas Delivery Unit II System is designed to provide a controlled flow of argon (an inert, nonreactive gas) over the active electrode of an electrosurgical accessory which is powered by a Force series electrosurgical generator.

Argon-enhanced coag permits the coagulation of certain tissue in a more controlled manner than with standard electrosurgical coagulation. In argon-enhanced coag, activating the handset creates an argon gas plasma between the electrode and the tissue. The presence of inert gas at the surgical site inhibits combustion with other gases (e.g., oxygen, nitrogen, etc.) and pushes residual smoke, water vapor, or fluids away from the surgical site, thereby improving visibility.

The Argon Gas Delivery Unit II has an overpressure system that continuously measures peritoneal cavity pressure in real-time. This system operates when the unit is in the low flow range for argon gas (0.5 to 4 LPM), i.e. the gas flow range for laparoscopic procedures. Use the overpressure system in conjunction with a carbon dioxide insufflator monitor.

The overpressure system senses when the peritoneal cavity pressure meets or excee(more...)
