The end effector (222) includes an ultrasonic member (226). A transducer (32, 132) is supported adjacent, on or within the ultrasonic member (226) and is connected to a power source. Upon actuation of Th. power source, the transducer (32, 132) effects vibration of the ultrasonic member (226). In one preferred embodiment, the end effector (222) is mounted for articulation about the distal end of the instrument.</p> |
