RETURN PAD CABLE CONNECTOR

摘要

A return pad cable connector (100) for use with a disposable return pad (120), includes a cord having a conductive wire (132) disposed therethrough which interconnects the return pad cable connector to an electrosurgical energy source. The return pad clamp further includes a connector operatively coupled to the cord, the connector having a conductive surface (130) which is selectively engageable with a corresponding conductive surface disposed on the return pad, the conductive surface of the connector including a conductive adhesive (134) disposed thereon and a non-conductive adhesive (112) disposed above the periphery of the conductive surface of the connector for engagement with a corresponding non-conductive adhesive disposed above the periphery of the conductive surface of the return pad. The connector can include a magnet for magnetically coupling the connector to the conductive surface disposed on the return pad.
