A surgical kit and related methods of assembly and disassembly include a surgical instrument having an end effector, a shaft assembly, and a body assembly. The surgical instrument includes a predetermined access portion configured to be at least partially removed for accessing an interior therein. The surgical kit also includes an instrument tool assembly with a tool body, a torque wrench connected to the tool body, and a removal portion for gaining access to the interior of the surgical instrument.

Surgical system and methods of assembly and disassembly of surgical instrument

A surgical kit includes a surgical instrument, a packaging, and a return packaging. The packaging defines an interior and an exterior in a closed configuration. The surgical instrument is disposed within the interior of the packaging or coupled with the packaging in the closed configuration. The packaging is configured to transition to an open configuration by a user to expose the interior and allow for access of the surgical instrument during a surgical procedure. The return packaging is configured to receive at least a portion of the surgical instrument after the surgical procedure for reduced cross-contamination. The return packaging is at least one of coupled with the packaging or disposed within the interior in the closed configuration.

Reclamation packaging for surgical instrument and related methods

A surgical device, is disclosed herein. The surgical device can include an end effector including a clamp jaw, a trigger configured to open and close the clamp jaw, a sensor configured to detect a relative position of the trigger, and a control circuit communicably coupled to the sensor and a generator, wherein the control circuit is configured to cause the generator to administer energy associated with a surgical operation to be performed on the tissue, receive a signal from the sensor, determine that the clamp jaws are not positioned to administer the energy associated with the surgical operation, and cause the generator to administer energy configured to release the tissue from an ultrasonic blade, wherein the energy configured to release the tissue from the clamp jaw is different than the energy associated with a surgical operation to be performed on the tissue.

Electrodes and methods for use with a multi-layer clamp arm pad to enhance the performance of a surgical device

A depth limiter that is configured to couple with first and second trocar cannulas having different diameters. The depth limiter includes first and second body portions. First and second body portions each include first and second gripping surfaces. The first and second body portions are pivotably coupled together and are movable between an open configuration and a closed configuration. In the open configuration, the first and second body portions are configured to allow for axial movement of the depth limiter relative to the first and second trocar cannulas. The first gripping surfaces of the first and second body portions are configured to restrict axial movement of the depth limiter relative to the first trocar cannula in the closed configuration. The second gripping surfaces of the first and second body portions are configured to restrict axial movement of the depth limiter relative to the second trocar cannula in the closed configuration.
