The invention concerns a medical technology device for treatment of the human or animal body, comprising at least one electrical plug connector which is adapted to be connected to a complementary counterpart plug connector of a further medical technology device and which in an active position is arranged projecting upwardly at the top side of the device. To provide a medical technology device which can be used both as an individual device and also in conjunction with a second device as a device arrangement and which in that respect satisfies existing safety and aesthetic demands, it is provided in accordance with the invention that the plug connector is adapted to be movable from the active position into a passive position, wherein in the passive position the plug connector is removed from the top side of the device and the top side is closed in substantially fluid-tight relationship.

Medical technology device and medical technology device arrangement

The invention concerns a flexible application device () for the high-frequency therapy of biological tissue or hollow organs, including a tubular high-frequency catheter () with a flexible shaft tube () having at least one lumen passing therethrough, a head electrode () arranged at the distal end of the high-frequency catheter (), an electric line () with a connection () for a high-frequency generator (), and a connecting element () arranged at the proximal end of the shaft tube () between the shaft tube and the line (). An electrically conducting traction element () extends in the lumen between the head electrode () and the connecting element () and is fixedly connected to the head electrode () on the one hand and the connecting element () on the other hand in such a way and which is of such a tensile strength that all external forces which occur during a treatment and which act on the high-frequency catheter () can be transmitted to the connecting element () by way of the head electrode () and the traction element ().

Flexible application device for the high-frequency treatment of biological tissue

A high frequency generator connected to an electrosurgical instrument comprising an electrical output terminal, a power source electrically connected to the output terminal, an arc detector, and a power control for controlling the electrical power delivered through the output terminal. The power control initially causes the delivery of a high output power for a phase for initial cutting support and thereafter, if ignition of an arc has occurred for a predetermined period of time to cause the delivery of reduced or no power and subsequently for a predetermined period of time to cause the delivery of reduced or no power at which no arc occurs, or if no ignition of an arc has occurred during the phase for initial cutting support, to cause the delivery of reduced or no power for a predetermined period of time of a short pause interval.

High frequency generator for electrosurgical cutting

A high frequency current application apparatus for thermal sclerosing of body tissue, comprising a high frequency generator connected to at least two electrodes, one of which is to be introduced into body tissue. The apparatus includes a measuring and calculating device adapted to ascertain impedance (or ohmic resistance) between the two electrodes between which a respective therapeutic high frequency current flows. A control device is connected to the measuring and calculating device for varying the output power. During high frequency current application the measuring and calculating device forms the first derivative with respect of time of the impedance. The control device reduces output power when that derivative exceeds a positive threshold characteristic of a threat of tissue desiccation and restores output power to the original power when the first derivative exceeds in positive values a negative threshold characteristic of adequate rehydration of body tissue.

Device for the electro-surgical sclerosing of body tissues

An electrode array is used for the thermal schlerosing of body tissue. The electrode array has at least three active electrodes that, during use, are placed in electrical-conducting connection with body tissue. A high frequency generator is electrically connected for selective application of current to the active electrodes for producing a high frequency voltage. A measuring device measures impedance of the tissue between the active electrodes. In addition, a selector device selects a sub-array including at least two active electrodes from the electrode array, the selecting being effected on the basis of the measured impedance. Further, a control device is configured such that a high frequency voltage is respectively applied between the active electrodes of the selected sub-array in such a way that a high frequency current flows between the selected active electrodes through the body tissue.

Device for electrosurgically destroying body tissue

The invention concerns a bipolar coagulation probe () having an electrode tip () which has an end face () in which a pole () of a first electrode () and a pole () of a second electrode () are integrated. In accordance with the invention the bipolar coagulation probe () includes a temperature control unit () with a temperature control medium for temperature control of the end face ().

Bipolar coagulation electrode

The invention concerns a surgical probe having electrodes for use in tissue ablation or coagulation. The probe has hollow spaces therein for delivering a cooling fluid to the probe. The probe has a handle and shaft and two axially-spaced electrodes on the surface of the shaft, separated from each other by an insulator.
