    Abstract: An ultrasonic resonant vibrator comprising an ultrasonic vibration magnetostrictive transducer (1) and a resonant member (2,3) having a proximal end and a distal end for transmitting ultrasonic vibrations to an operating member (3) which is part of the resonant structure. The vibrator comprises an integral substantially rigid column having a central axis with fins extending radially relative to said axis and having a longitudinal hole defining a tunnel (8) centered along the central axis, wherein at least part of the resonant member is located within the tunnel; and a surgical handpiece incorporating such a vibrator.

    Abstract: An electrosurgical generator 10 comprises a patient circuit which includes an active electrode 12 and a return electrode 14. Means 16 of generator 10 generates a pulse train and includes an MXN storage device U 1 having M memory locations where M > 1 and each location having N storage positions where N ≥ 1. The storage device stores at least one K-bit binary signal which is sequentially put out from the storage device. An electrosurgical signal generating means which in response to the K-bit binary signal generates an electrosurgical signal which is applied to the patient circuit.

    Abstract: IMPROVED RETURN ELECTRODE MONITORING SYSTEM A return electrode monitoring system for use with a patient return electrode adapted for contacting a patient, the return electrode having two, spaced apart conductors attached thereto for connecting the electrode to a generator of electrosurgical current which passes through the electrode, the system comprising means for applying a monitoring current through the conductors to the electrode; detecting means responsive to the monitoring current for producing a signal which is a function of the impedance between the two conductors, the detecting means including means for substantially eliminating any effect the electrosurgical current might have on the production of the signal when the generator is operational and the patient is in contact with the electrode; means for establishing a desired range having at least an upper limit for the impedance; and determining means responsive to the signal for determining whether the impedance is within the desired range. The system also includes means for establishing a desired range having an upper limit and a lower limit for the impedance when the patient is in contact with the electrode elements; determining means responsive to the signal for determining whether the impedance is within the desired range; and adjusting means for adjusting the upper limit to adapt the system to the particular impedance of the patient in response to the particular impedance occurring within the desired range.
