Abstract

A medical device for delivering energy and/or fluid includes a handle, a shaft extending distally from the handle, a fluid port configured to deliver fluid through at least a portion of the shaft, and an end effector at a distal end of the shaft. The handle includes a hub for electrically connecting the medical device to an energy source. The shaft includes an outer sheath, an inner sheath, and a control wire. The end effector includes a loop portion and an electrode coupled to a distal end of the loop portion. A proximal end of the loop portion is coupled to a distal end of the control wire such that movement of the control wire controls a position of the end effector relative to the distal end of the shaft.
