Caution: Due to the carcinogenic and infectious potential of electrosurgical by-products (such as tissue smoke plume and aerosols), protective eyewear, filtration masks, and effective smoke evacuation equipment should be used in both open and laparoscopic procedures. Caution: Do not re-sharpen Scissors. Caution: Keep the active electrodes clean. Build-up of eschar may reduce the instrument’s effectiveness. Do not activate the instrument while cleaning. Caution: Use instruments only in conditions that assure adequate visualization to minimize risk of misapplied electrosurgical energy. Caution: Output power selected should be as low as possible for the intended purpose. Caution: A singular instrument must be the sole conductor of energy to tissue. Do not conduct energy by touching an instrument to a second instrument contacting tissue. Caution: Wear of insert clevis may be an indication of impending mechanical failure, which may result in component coming loose during use. Caution: Proper care and maintenance of hand held laparoscopic instruments is essential for safe and effective operation. Prior to each use, instruments should be thoroughly examined for end of life indicators such as broken or worn parts which may inhibit the function. Specifically, instruments used for electro surgery must be checked for nicks, cracks, or damaged insulation. Careful inspection upon receipt and frequent inspection during use for functional integrity is recommended as a safeguard against possible injury to patient or operator. Instruments should be used with extreme care when inserting or removing from the cannula. Lateral pressure on the device during removal can damage the working tip, the shaft of the device, and/or insulation. Be sure the tips are closed and the device is pulled straight out until completely clear of cannula to avoid catching valve assemblies or dislodging the cannula. Caution: The non-conductive Luer Port Cap must be installed securely on the flush port during use to minimize insufflation leakage from the patient. The Luer Port Cap must NOT cover the flush port during cleaning and sterilization. Caution: Use of instrument for a task other than that for which it is intended may result in a damaged or broken device. For example: Use of a delicate dissector as a grasper. Use of a scissors to cut staples Use of a 5mm grasper or dissector instead of a 10mm claw extractor forceps to remove excised tissue through cannula. Caution: Incorrect placement of trocars can adversely affect instrument effectiveness, patient safety, and operator comfort. Caution: Electrosurgical cords must comply with IEC 60601-2-2:2009. Always reference and follow the IFU (instructions for use) for Electrosurgical Cords. Caution: Electrosurgical Generators must comply with IEC 60601-2-2:2009. Always reference and follow the IFU (instructions for use) for the ESU (electrosurgical generator) Product Life: Expected life is greatly dependent upon the care, handling, and use of the devices.

Follow the Rigid Container manufacturer's IFU (instructions for use) for shelf life. Intended Use Hand held Laparoscopic instruments are intended for grasping, cutting, dissecting, retracting, clamping, biopsy, and/or cauterization of tissue. The devices are used in conjunction with a laparoscope during laparoscopic procedures. Instruments should be used only by personnel completely famil iar with their operation. Using an instrument improperly for a task which it was not intended may result in a damaged or broken instrument. Contraindications: Do not activate the electrodes during use if laparoscopic electrosurgical techniques are contraindicated. DO NOT USE if use if laparoscopic methods have been contraindicated. Supplied Contents: Handle/Tube Assemblies, Multi-Use Scissors Inserts, and Reusable inserts are sold separately. Safety Information Warning: Risk of injury: Do not use instruments with damaged or missing insulation. Inspect instruments and cables for damage prior to each use. Insulation failures may result in burns or other injuries to the patient or operator. Warning: Risk of injury: There is a risk of injury if active electrodes come into contact with other conductive devices and accessories. Warning: Risk of injury: Keep electrical connections dry while in use to prevent unintended conduction of HF current. Warning: Risk of injury: Do not activate instrument when not in contact with target tissue, as this may cause injuries due to capacitive coupling. Warning: Risk of injury: The surface of the active electrode may remain hot enough to cause burns after the RF current has been deactivated. Warning: Risk of injury: Activating the electrosurgical unit simultaneously with suction/irrigation may alter the path of energy. Aspirate fluid from the area before activating the instrument. Conductive fluids (e.g., blood or saline) in direct contact with or in close proximity to an active electrode may alter electrical current which may cause unintended burns to the patient. Warning: Risk of injury: Incorrectly assembled and damaged devices can lead to injuries to the patient or operator. Devices and all accessories used in combination must be checked immediately before and after use. Check for missing parts, damaged insulation, loose parts, cracks, broken parts, or bent parts. Verify that devices are fully functional. Warning: Risk of Injury: The use of excessive force may result in medical devices which malfunction. Regardless of age, any Endoplus devices requiring service should be returned to Endoplus. Warning: Risk of injury: If application parts are used outside of the field of vision there is a risk that tissue and accessories could be damaged unintentionally. Always hold the application parts of the active electrode and other instruments which transmit energy in a target-oriented manner and in the field of vision during application. Warning: Risk of fire: DO NOT activate the electrode in the presence of flammable anesthetics or oxidizing gases (such as nitrous oxide (N2O) and oxygen) or in close proximity to volatile solvents (such as ether or alcohol), as explosion or fire may occur. Warning: Risk of fire: DO NOT place instrument near or in contact with flammable materials (such as gauze or surgical drapes). Instruments which are activated or hot from use may cause a fire. Warning: Risk of injury: When not in use, stage devices in a visible area not in contact with the patient to minimize the risk of accidental activation and inadvertent patient contact. Warning: Risk of injury: DO NOT USE with hybrid trocar systems, i.e. a combination of metal and plastic. This may result in alternate site burns due to capacitive coupling. Use only allmetal or all plastic trocar systems. Warning: Risk of injury: Connect adaptors and accessories to the electrosurgical unit only when the unit is off. Failure to do so may result in electrical shock, burn, or fire hazard. Warning: Risk of injury: Prior to increasing the intensity, check the adherence of the neutral electrode and its connections. Apparent low output or failure of the device to function correctly at the normal operating settings may indicate faulty application of the neutral electrode or poor contact in its connections.
