Surgical system including clamp and apparatus for securing an energy transmission device to the clamp and method of converting a clamp into an electrophysiology device
First Claim
1. A surgical system, comprising:
- a clamp including a first clamp member, a second clamp member, and movement apparatus that moves at least one of the first and second clamp members relative to the other of the first and second clamp members such that the surgical apparatus has an open state and a closed state; and
an apparatus for use with the clamp including a base member configured to be removably secured to at least one of the first and second clamp members and at least one energy transmission device carried by the base member.

Abstract
An apparatus for use with a clamp including a base member configured to be secured to the clamp and at least one energy transmission device carried by the base member. An apparatus for use with a clamp and a probe that carries at least one energy transmission device including a base member configured to be secured to the clamp and an engagement device associated with the base member and configured to engage the probe. A clamp including first and second clamp members, at least one of which is malleable, and a movement apparatus that moves at least one of the first and second clamp members relative to the other. A surgical system including a clamp with first and second clamp members and a device that removably mounts at least one electrode on at least one of the first and second clamp members.
