Summary:To provide various forms directed to systems and methods for dissection and coagulation of tissue.SOLUTION: A surgical instrument includes an end effector configured to dissect and seal tissue at a distal end thereof, and a generator that is electrically coupled to the surgical instrument and that is configured to deliver energy to the end effector. The surgical instrument includes an end effector configured to interact with a tissue at a distal end thereof, and a generator electrically coupled to the surgical instrument and configured to deliver radio frequency (RF) energy and ultrasonic energy to the end effector to allow the end effector to interact with the tissue. The energy delivered to the end effector switches between RF energy and ultrasonic energy based on a determination of various factors such as tissue impedance.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】様々な形態は、組織の切開及び凝固のためのシステム及び方法を目的とする。【解決手段】外科用器具は、組織をその遠位端で切開及び封止するように構成されたエンドエフェクタと、外科用器具に電気的に連結され、かつエネルギーをエンドエフェクタに送達するように構成された発生器とを含む。外科用器具は、組織とその遠位端で相互作用するように構成されたエンドエフェクタと、外科用器具に電気的に連結し、かつ無線周波数(RF)エネルギー及び超音波エネルギーをエンドエフェクタに送達して、エンドエフェクタが組織と相互作用することを可能にするように構成された発生器とを含む。エンドエフェクタに送達されるエネルギーは、組織インピーダンスなどの様々な因子の決定に基づいて、RFエネルギーと超音波エネルギーとが切り替わる。【選択図】図1
