Problems solved by technology

However, the auxiliary blade may undesirably require additional space at the surgical site to store the auxiliary device
Also, utilizing an auxiliary blade may undesirably require additional hand movement (i.e., picking up the device, applying the device, and replacing the device) by the surgeon performing the operation and may undesirably increase the additional time of the medical procedure

Abstract

An electrosurgical device includes a forceps and a blade. The forceps includes a first working jaw and a second working jaw. The blade extends along a longitudinal axis and Includes a notched section, The blade is located between the first working jaw and the second working jaw. A first therapy current can be connected to the first working jaw, the second working jaw, or both so that tissue gripped between the first working jaw and the second working jaw and within the notched section can be coagulated. While the tissue is gripped between the first working jaw and the second working jaw, the blade is moveable along its longitudinal axis so that the tissue is cut with the notched section without repositioning the first working jaw, the second working jaw, or both.

Description

technical field [0001] The present teachings relate to medical clamps, and more particularly to medical clamps for clamping, coagulating, and severing blood vessels or tissue. Background technique [0002] Generally, a medical clamp is a forceps-like device that includes opposing jaws for clamping, manipulating, and / or pulling blood vessels or tissue during a surgical procedure. One or both of the opposing jaws may also be provided with electrosurgical energy (ie, treatment current) such that blood vessels or tissue can be cauterized or coagulated while being clamped between the jaws. More specifically, monopolar clamps use one active electrode and remote patient return pads attached externally to the patient. When electrosurgical energy is applied, the energy travels from the active electrode to the vessel or tissue to cauterize or coagulate the vessel or tissue, through the patient to the return pad. Bipolar clamps use two opposing electrodes, each charged to a different...
