OPTIMAL ELECTROSURGICAL POWER SETTINGS TO PREVENT BURNS DURING LAPAROSCOPY

采购大功率电刀， 手术室已经建立了新的指导方针， 防止患者受伤。 腹腔镜手术需要非常 与许多其他手术相比， 程序. 一个病人的胃肠道被一个 来自NIH以外机构的外科医生强调， 重新审查新一代的功率设定准则 电外科器械。 目前的指导方针是在 二十世纪七十年代早期和中期， 远没有那么强大 我们将测量 新一代电外科器械， 腹腔镜手术功率设置的建议。 美国医学会临床经验和指南 妇科腹腔镜医生将被纳入。

The acquisition of powerful electrosurgical generators in the operating room has established the need for new guidelines to prevent patient injuries. Laparocopic procedures require very little electrosurgical energy in contrast with many other operative procedures. A burn to a patient's gastro-intestinal tract by a surgeon from an institution other than NIH emphasizes the need for reexamination of power setting guidelines for new generation electrosurgical machines. Current guidelines were established in the early and mid nineteen seventies when electrosurgical machines were not nearly as powerful. We will measure the power output of the new-generation electrosurgical machines and establish recommendations for power settings for laparoscopic procedures. Clinical experience and guidelines of the American Association of Gynecologic Laparoscopists will be incorporated.
