Method and system related to electrosurgical procedures |
摘要 |
Electrosurgical procedures. At least some of the example methods that include: supplying energy to an active electrode of an electrosurgical wand, the supplying energy to the active electrode by an electrosurgical controller; monitoring an electrical parameter associated with the energy; and determining, based on the electrical parameter, the presence of a wand condition of the electrosurgical wand, the wand condition being at least one selected from the group consisting of: a surface area of the active electrode is less than a predetermined threshold surface area; the surface area of the active electrode is approaching the predetermined threshold surface area; and that the electrosurgical wand is affected by a blockage. |

1. A method comprising:
supplying energy to an active electrode of an electrosurgical wand by an electrosurgical controller; monitoring an electrical parameter associated with the energy; and determining, based on the electrical parameter, presence of a wand condition of the electrosurgical wand, the wand condition being at least one selected from the group consisting of: a surface area of the active electrode is less than a predetermined threshold surface area; and the surface area of the active electrode is approaching the predetermined threshold surface area. |
