The ENSEAL
G2 Tissue Sealer has not been shown to be effective for sealing vessels without
®
fully advancing the I-BLADE
applying energy.
•
Do not use this device on vessels in excess of 7mm in diameter.
•
Do not use excessive force on the Closing Handle to close the jaws; grasp only as much tissue as
will fit between the jaws where the current will pass. Greater amounts of tissue require more Closing
Handle force. Excessive force could damage the device.
•
Avoid contact with metal and plastic when instrument is active.
•
Use surgical gloves specifically designed by their manufacturer for electrosurgical procedures. The use
of other gloves can result in burns or shocks.
•
In case of system failure, ensure the availability of the appropriate back-up equipment relevant to the
specific procedure.
•
During and following activation in tissue, the jaws and shaft may be hot. Avoid unintended contact with
tissue, drapes, surgical gowns, or other unintended sites at all times.
•
After utilizing the instrument to seal and transect, always examine the tissue for hemostasis.
If hemostasis is not present, appropriate techniques should be used to achieve hemostasis.
•
Due to the difficulty of visualizing obscured structures, proceed slowly and do not attempt to transect
large masses of tissue in one activation. Avoid the division of large tissue and/or vascular bundles when
using the instrument under these conditions.
•
Products manufactured or distributed by companies not authorized by Ethicon Endo-Surgery may
not be compatible with the ENSEAL
unanticipated results and possible injury to the user or patient.
•
Discontinue use and replace device if excessive smoke or sparking is observed.
•
Dispose of this device in a "Sharps" container. Dispose of all opened instruments whether used or unused.
•
As with all energy sources (Electrosurgery, Laser, or Ultrasound), there are concerns about the
carcinogenic and infectious potential of the by-products, such as tissue smoke plume and aerosols.
Appropriate measures such as protective eyewear, filtration masks, and effective smoke evacuation
equipment should be used in laparoscopic or open procedures.
•
Instruments or devices which come into contact with bodily fluids may require special disposal
handling to prevent biological contamination.
•
This instrument is packaged and sterilized for single use only. Do not reuse, reprocess or resterilize.
Reuse, reprocessing, or resterilization may compromise the structural integrity of the instrument
and/or lead to instrument failure that in turn may result in patient injury, illness or death. Also,
reprocessing or resterilization of single use instruments may create a risk of contamination and/or
cause patient infection or cross-infection, including, but not limited to, the transmission of infectious
disease(s) from one patient to another. Contamination of the instrument may lead to injury, illness,
or death of the patient.
•
To ensure coagulation and transection of tissue, always completely advance the I-BLADE
squeezing the Closing Handle with the I-BLADE
•
Transection without power application can lead to bleeding.
•
Take care to avoid injury for the I-BLADE
•
Do NOT immerse distal tip in liquid, including saline solution, to clean. (Illustration 7)
•
Do not clean the instrument with abrasives.
•
Do not activate the instrument while cleaning to avoid inadvertent user injury.
