6.3.3. Program 2 “EndoLAP II Ligation”
(ligation only for ARC 350L)
• Only connection socket 3 supplies ligation current.
• If the software option “Ligation” is unavailable, this program
provides the function “Standard Bipolar”.
This program is used for ligation in laparoscopic applications in which 2
monopolar instruments and 2 bipolar instruments can be connected.
In this program, one instrument of the BOWA NightKNIFE
®
, LIGATOR

and TissueSeal
®
series and a further optional bipolar instrument can be
connected.
The performance output is preconfigured and is automatically adjusted.
The sealing effect can be altered via the key for scabbing level 25 or 26.
The set effect is displayed from 1 to 4 in the 7-segment display “Bipolar
Coag” 29:
• Effect 1: For a bipolar coagulation of thin structures with the
aid of a BOWA ligation instrument.
• Effect 2: The sealing of thin blood vessels and structures with
the aid of a BOWA ligation instrument.
• Effect 3: The sealing of medium-sized blood vessels and
structures with the aid of a BOWA ligation instrument.
• Effect 4: The sealing of thick blood vessels and structures of
up to 7 mm with the aid of a BOWA ligation instrument.
DANGER
Blood loss due to incomplete blood vessel sealing!
X Deactivate the ligation instrument after completed sealing of blood
vessels.
