This product cannot be adequately cleaned and/or sterilized by the user in order to facilitate safe reuse, and is therefore intended for single use. Attempts to clean or sterilize these devices without appropriate regulatory authorization may result in bio-incompatibility, infection, or product failure risks to the patient.

This instrument is intended for use ONLY with the Covidien equipment listed on the cover of this document. Use of this instrument with other generators may not result in the desired tissue effect, may result in injury to the patient or surgical team, or may cause damage to the instrument.

Do not use the LigaSure™ system unless properly trained to use it in the specific procedure being undertaken. Use of this equipment without such training may result in serious unintended patient injury.

Use the system with caution in the presence of internal or external pacemakers or other implanted devices. Interference produced by electrosurgical equipment can cause a pacemaker or other device to enter an unsafe mode or permanently damage the device. Consult the device manufacturer or responsible hospital department for further information when use is planned in patients with implanted medical devices.

Contact between an active instrument electrode and any metal objects (hemostats, staples, clips, retractors, etc.) may increase current flow and may result in unintended surgical effects, such as an effect at an unintended site or insufficient energy deposition.

The safe and effective use of RF energy depends on many factors solely under the control of the operator. There is no substitute for properly trained and vigilant personnel. It is important that the operating instructions supplied with this or any other medical equipment be read, understood, and followed.
