1. A method for controlling energy applied to tissue in at least two states as a function of at least one detected tissue property, comprising the steps of:

  • providing at least two recursive filters configured to recursively process the at least one detected tissue property to obtain an averaged value of the at least one detected tissue property;

    applying energy at a baseline level to the tissue;

    determining an initial value of the at least one detected tissue property;

    ramping the energy from a baseline level to an initial level;

    preloading the at least two recursive filters with the initial value of the at least one detected tissue property;

    recursively processing the at least one detected tissue property to obtain the averaged value of the at least one detected tissue property; and

    transitioning between the at least two states based on a comparison of averaged values.
