+7, 5mm Diameter Shears with Advanced Hemostasis Description
Reprocessed HARMONIC ACE
®
+7, 5mm Diameter Shears with Advanced Hemostasis are sterile, single patient use instruments
consisting of an ergonomic grip housing assembly with hand control buttons (MIN for minimum power level, MAX for
maximum power level, and Advanced Hemostasis for large vessel sealing). An integrated audible and tactile mechanism in the
grip housing indicates full trigger closure. The instruments have a clamp arm and coated curved blade that are designed to
work through a 5 mm trocar, through a 5 mm reducer cap in a larger diameter trocar, or through an incision without the use of
a trocar. The instrument shafts can be rotated 360° to facilitate visualization and access to targeted tissue. The three dashes on
the instrument are intended to represent relative vessel size. The MAX button is typically used for smaller vessels where
cutting speed is fastest. The MIN button is typically used in slightly larger vessels and has reduced cutting speed. It is indicated
for vessels up to 5 mm in size. The Advanced Hemostasis button is designed for larger vessels and is indicated for vessels up to
7 mm in size. In this mode, cutting speed is further reduced and hemostasis is maximized. The instruments utilize Adaptive
Tissue Technology. This provides the generator with the ability to identify and monitor the instrument during use, which
enables the generator to modulate and adjust its power output as well as provide audible feedback to the user as appropriate.
Each instrument is shipped with one sterile, single-use, disposable torque wrench. Use only the gray torque wrench provided
with the instrument. The torque wrench should not be discarded until the completion of the surgical case. Do not attempt to
sterilize the disposable torque wrench.
Note: Use of HARMONIC torque wrenches other than the one provided may result in damage to the device.
The Reprocessed HARMONIC ACE®+7, 5 mm Diameter Shears with Advanced Hemostasis are designed for use exclusively
with the Generator G11 (GEN11) software version 2013_1, 2014_1, or 2016_1. Software revision can be found under "System
lnformation" in the Generator G11 (GEN11) "Settings" menu. Refer to the Generator G11 (GEN11) Operator's Manual for more
information.
