Abstract

An electrosurgical system including an electrosurgical generator and an adapter connected to the electrosurgical generator. The adapter is configured to selectively transmit one or more energy outputs from the electrosurgical generator to an end effect device. At least one of the electrosurgical generator and the adapter are configured to be controlled by one or more control device. An electrosurgical system can include a control device connected to an electrosurgical generator. The control device can be configured to selectively transmit control instructions to the electrosurgical generator. The control device can be configured to receive a control signal from a user. An electrosurgical apparatus can include a pair of blades configured to deliver at least mechanical and electrical energy to tissue. Each blade can include a portion configured to protrude to the other side of a central plane. An electrosurgical apparatus can include a first tip comprising a first tip central plane and a second tip comprising a second tip central plane, wherein the electrosurgical apparatus has a first configuration wherein the first and second tips operate as forceps, and wherein the electrosurgical…
