Product description and functional principles
3.4.1 RFITT – Radiofrequency induced thermotherapy
The medical purpose of the radiofrequency induced thermotherapy, RFITT, is to achieve
controlled tissue coagulation. The CELON ELITE ESG-200 offers 4 different RFITT modes
that are used in conjunction with the CELON bipolar applicators. For further information refer
to the section “The bipolar RFITT coagulation modes” on page 63.
3.4.2 RCAP – Resistance Controlled Automatic Power for RFITT
RCAP is a feature that supports the mode Strong RFITT. Deep tissue coagulation without
significant desiccation is achieved with RCAP.
RCAP determines the maximum power uptake of the tissue, adapted to the momentary
treatment status and automatically adjusts the electrosurgical generator. For this process,
the geometry of the bipolar applicator used as well as individual tissue characteristics,
e.g. blood perfusion, are taken into account. Therefore, premature tissue desiccation
is effectively avoided and subsequent manual adjustment of the supplied power is
unnecessary. Also refer to the section “The bipolar RFITT coagulation modes” on page
63.
3.4.3 Automatic instrument recognition
The electrosurgical generator is equipped with a radio transmitting and receiving technology.
Therefore, the selected CELON bipolar applicator that is connected to the electrosurgical
generator is recognized automatically. This means:
- The name of the connected CELON bipolar applicator is displayed in the BIPOLAR pane
of the touch screen, e. g. [ProBreath] or [ProSleep plus].
- Only compatible modes and output power settings are available.
- The user can select one of these compatible modes and can change the output power
level within a restricted range.
Other radio transmitters and receivers, e. g. mobile phones, may interfere with the automatic
instrument recognition.
• To avoid interference observe the instructions in the chapter “Electromagnetic
compatibility” on page 92.
3.4.4 Automatic wear-out detection
To protect the patient from a worn-out instrument the bipolar applicators are equipped with
memory chips that record the usage. When the permitted usage span is nearly reached,
the electrosurgical generator alerts the user by emitting an alarm tone and displaying the
following error message:
