Abstract
A surgical stapling device includes a proximal handle assembly, an elongated central body portion that extends distally from the proximal handle assembly to a distal end portion, a tool assembly supported on the distal end portion of the elongated central body portion, and an audible indicator mechanism supported by the proximal handle assembly. The proximal handle assembly includes a contact arm and the audible indicator mechanism includes a cam member. The cam member contacts the contact arm of the proximal handle assembly as the cam member moves between distal and proximal positions to generate an audible sound that indicates that the tool assembly was fired.
