Intended use
The ligature instruments are intended to be used to seal arterial and
venous blood vessels and vascular tissue structures in open surgical
procedures in gynecology, urology, general surgery, and other
surgical disciplines with the aid of an HF current and mechanical
pressure.
In addition, the ligature instruments are suitable for conventional
bipolar coagulation.
The ligature instruments are intended to be used with the bipolar
"LIGATION" operating mode.
They are intended to be used in connection with the ligation program
of BOWA ARC generators.
Do not use the ligation instruments if, in the opinion of an experienced
physician or according to current professional literature, such use
would cause endangerment of the patient due, for example, to the
general condition of the patient, or if other contraindications are
present.
Do not use on the heart, the central circulation system or the central
nervous system.
