Abstract

Various exemplary systems, devices, and methods for testing electrosurgical generators are provided. In general, an electrosurgical generator is configured to generate energy and provide the energy to an electrosurgical instrument. In an exemplary embodiment, testing of an electrosurgical generator includes simulating a tissue load being electrosurgically treated in a surgical procedure. The simulated tissue load is simulated by a computer system that includes a circuit that has a plurality of states each corresponding to a different simulated tissue load. The circuit is configured to change between the plurality of states during the testing so as to simulate a plurality of different tissue loads.
