SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING VACUUM WITHIN PHACOEMULSIFICATION SYSTEMS |
摘要 |
The invention relates to systems and methods for controlling vacuum within phacoemulsification systems. The phacoemulsification system may include a handpiece having a needle. The needle is coupled to a power source configured to cause the needle to be ultrasonically vibrated during operation and an aspiration source. The system further includes a footpedal that defines a first position and a second position. The system also includes a computer program product operatively coupled to the handpiece and the footpedal, the computer program product having a computer-usable medium having a sequence of instructions which, when executed by a processor, causes said processor to execute a process that controls power from the power source and vacuum from the aspiration source applied to the handpiece. The process includes the steps of providing a vacuum at a first level to the handpiece when the footpedal is at the first position; providing power to the handpiece when the footpedal is at the second position; and reducing the vacuum to a second level when the footpedal transitions from the first position to the second position. |
