Compact electrosurgery apparatuses
First Claim
1. A compact electrosurgical apparatus comprising:
- a housing having a front panel, a back panel generally parallel with the front panel, a top panel extending between the front and back panel, a bottom panel extending between the front and back panel, the bottom panel being generally parallel to the top panel, a left side panel extending between the front, back, top and bottom panels and a right side panel extending between the front, back, top and bottom panels, the right side panel being generally parallel to the left side panel, wherein the front, back, top, bottom, left and right side panels define a cavity;
a high frequency electrosurgical system located within the cavity, the electrosurgical system comprises;
a high frequency monopolar output system;
a high frequency bipolar output system;
an argon plasma coagulation (APC) output system;
a processor located within the cavity, the processor operatively coupled to each of the output systems of the high frequency electrosurgical system to control outputs generated by each output system;
a high frequency generator located within the cavity and operatively coupled to the processor; and
a gas canister holder and a gas canister control system located within the cavity of the housing for receiving a gas canister.
