Ligasure Mode - Covidien Valleylab LS10 User Manual

LigaSure Mode

The LigaSure vessel sealing mode can be used on arteries, veins, pulmonary vasculature,
and lymphatics up to and including 7 mm in diameter and tissue bundles. This system
provides precise energy delivery and electrode pressure to vessels for a controlled time
period to achieve a complete and permanent fusion of the vessel lumen. The system is
designed to produce minimal sticking, charring, and thermal spread to adjacent tissue.
Warning
Do not attempt to fuse lung tissue with LigaSure mode or instruments without first consulting the
respective instrument instructions for use for indicating such use.
LigaSure Instruments
The LigaSure instruments that complete the Valleylab vessel sealing system include
reusable and single-use instruments for open and minimally-invasive procedures. Each
reusable instrument requires a corresponding single-use electrode. The LigaSure function
is only available when using Covidien LigaSure instruments.
