DANGER Ignitable anaesthetics and gases
The igniting of ammable gases, especially anaesthetics, will cause serious injuries to the
patient, the user and the medical personnel.
Take precautionary measures to keep away ammable gases from the site of intervention.
Do not use ammable anaesthetics, e.g. nitrous oxygen or oxygen.
WARNING Ignitable agents for cleaning and disinfection and other substances
The igniting of ammable substances, e.g. agents for cleaning and disinfection, can cause
serious injuries to the patient, the user and the medical personnel.
If possible, only use non-ammable agents for cleaning and disinfection.
Before the electrosurgical generator is used, allow ammable substances to evaporate.
Make sure that there are no ammable solutions on the patient’s skin, e.g. under the
neutral electrode.
Make sure that there are no ammable solutions in the body cavity of the patient.
WARNING Ignitable materials
Sparks that occur during normal operation of the HF equipment can ignite ammable
materials, e.g. absorbent cotton or gauze and also body hair. This could result in serious injuries to the patient, the user and the medical personnel.
• Use soluble surgical lubricating jelly to cover hair close to the site of intervention.
• Do not apply materials like cotton or gauze simultaneously with the HF instrument to the site of intervention.
Safety information
WARNING Ignitable gas in the gastrointestinal tract
Flammable gases within the intestines of the patient could cause re or explosion when
applying HF current. This could result in serious injury to the patient.
Prior to the HF procedure, replace intestine gases by air or by other non-ammable gases.
WARNING Fuses
Using inadequate fuses can cause electrical re within the electrosurgical generator. This
could result in injury to the patient, the user and the medical personnel.
Fuses must only be replaced by a qualied electrician with sufcient experience in maintaining medical electrical devices.
Only use fuses as specied in the section “Specications for the CELON ELITE ESG-200” on page 90.
• Before changing the fuses, disconnect the electrosurgical generator from the mains electricity.

2.6.8 Procedural hazards and complications
DANGER Procedural hazards and complications
Insufcient knowledge of the user about the medical literature and about the specic
procedural hazards will result in severe complications that can result in death of the patient.
The electrosurgical generator must only be used by physicians who have experience with
the electrosurgical procedure that is used for the specic therapy.
• To respond to possible complications during the procedure consider the following:
• Prepare at least one hemostatic procedure: coagulation, clipping or local injection.
• Make sure that emergency equipment for life-saving, intubation and appropriate pharmaceuticals are located in or near the procedure room.
• Prepare a spare electrosurgical generator or an alternative procedure to avoid
interruption of treatment due to an unexpected electrosurgical generator failure during
the treatment.
• If any abnormal output is suspected during the operation, immediately terminate the use of the equipment.
• If the foot switch does not react, switch off the electrosurgical generator. Malfunction of the equipment can cause an unintended increase of output energy.
• Use physiological monitoring equipment throughout the entire procedure.
Consider the use of a bipolar mode for procedures where the HF current could ow through parts of the body with a relatively small cross sectional area.
• It is not recommended to use electrosurgery for circumcisions because of the risk of
thermal injuries. The risk can be reduced if metal parts of any kind (e.g. clamps) or
monopolar HF instruments are avoided.
WARNING Electrosurgical smoke
Electrosurgical interventions produce smoke. When unltered smoke is inhaled, then this
can affect the health of the user and the medical personnel.
• Wear surgical masks during the procedure.
• Make sure that adequate ventilation, surgical smoke evacuators or other means is provided in the operating room.
WARNING Output performance
Tissue coagulum that builds up at the HF instrument can impede the output performance of the electrosurgical generator. Increasing the output level can damage the electrosurgical generator and can result in injury to the patient.
• Carefully clean eschar affected areas of the HF instrument. Refer to the instructions for use of the HF instrument.
• If necessary, replace the HF instrument.
If non-insulated grasping forceps are used during endoscopic interventions, then the HF current is dispersed via the endoscope which impedes the output performance and which can result in injury to the patient.
• Only use isolated grasping forceps during endoscopic interventions.
18
Safety information
DRAFT 2017-01-17
WARNING Electrical stimulation of nerves and muscles
Low frequency electrical currents or intense high frequency electrical currents can stimulate nerves and muscles which may result in violent spasms or muscle contractions of the
patient. Low frequency electrical currents may be generated by a partial rectication of
intense high frequency electrical current, in particular when there is a spark discharge to the tissue or to another metallic object. Intense high frequency electrical currents can occur at the beginning of an electrosurgical cut or when using high output power settings.
• Use the lowest appropriate output power level. Be aware that certain modes present an unacceptable risk with power settings that are too low. With the PulseCut mode and all
RFITT modes the risk of excessive thermal effects rises if the output power setting is too
low.
• For appropriate power settings refer to the tables with the modes characteristics in the
“Appendix B” on page 101.
CAUTION Generator defect
Short circuits can cause malfunction or damage of the electrosurgical generator which may cause an undesirably high output of power. This could result in injury to the patient.
• Make sure that the electrodes of an HF instrument do not come in contact with each other.
• Do not touch metallic parts with the HF instrument.

3.3 Nomenclature and functional principles of the software features
The electrosurgical generator is equipped with the following features:
- Contact Quality Monitor (CQM)
- High Power Cut Support (HPCS)
- Autostart
- Fast Spark Monitor (FSM)
21
Product description and functional principles
DRAFT 2017-01-17
For selected CELON bipolar applicators the electrosurgical generator also provides:
- Radiofrequency induced thermotherapy (RFITT)
- Resistance Controlled Automatic Power (RCAP) for RFITT
- Automatic instrument recognition
- Automatic wear-out detection
The functional principles of theses features are described in the sections below.
3.3.1 CQM – Contact Quality Monitoring for the neutral electrode
When using split type neutral electrodes for monopolar electrosurgery, the CELON ELITE ESG-200 is able to detect unintended detachment of the neutral electrode from the patient.
The indicator for the contact quality monitor (CQM) shines green while the contact between
the split type neutral electrode and the skin of the patient is within an acceptable resistance range. If the contact between the split type neutral electrode and the patient’s skin is
insufcient, then an alarm tone sounds, a warning message is displayed and the contact
quality monitor indicator shines red.
Using non-split type neutral electrodes is not as safe as using split-type ones as CQM is not able to detect any detachment of the neutral electrode from the patient.
For detailed information on the safe and correct use of neutral electrodes refer to the chapter
“Neutral electrode operation” on page 53.
3.3.2 HPCS – High Power Cut Support
All cutting modes are supported by HPCS. This feature optimizes the start of the cutting procedure by applying high power to the tissue to support immediate spark ignition and to reduce the risk of mechanical cutting.
3.3.3 Autostart for the bipolar mode SoftCoag
If the impedance is within a dened range, then Autostart feature permits automatic
activation of the output power as soon as both electrodes of the electrosurgical instrument touch the tissue. It is possible to set a time delay so that the automatic activation does not start immediately when the electrodes are in contact with the tissue but only after a certain time. Consequently, activating by foot switch is not necessary.
Autostart is available only for the bipolar mode SoftCoag.
3.3.4 FSM – Fast Spark Monitor
This feature ensures smooth and reproducible cutting although the tissue characteristic are varying, e.g. in muscle and fat.
3.4 Features for selected CELON bipolar applicators
The following features are compatible only with selected CELON bipolar applicators, e.g. CelonProSleep plus or CelonProBreath.

DRAFT 2017-01-17
3.4.1 RFITT – Radiofrequency induced thermotherapy
The medical purpose of the radiofrequency induced thermotherapy, RFITT, is to achieve controlled tissue coagulation. The CELON ELITE ESG-200 offers 4 different RFITT modes that are used in conjunction with the CELON bipolar applicators. For further information refer
to the section “The bipolar RFITT coagulation modes” on page 63.
3.4.2 RCAP – Resistance Controlled Automatic Power for RFITT
RCAP is a feature that supports the mode Strong RFITT. Deep tissue coagulation without
signicant desiccation is achieved with RCAP.
RCAP determines the maximum power uptake of the tissue, adapted to the momentary
treatment status and automatically adjusts the electrosurgical generator. For this process, the geometry of the bipolar applicator used as well as individual tissue characteristics, e.g. blood perfusion, are taken into account. Therefore, premature tissue desiccation is effectively avoided and subsequent manual adjustment of the supplied power is
unnecessary. Also refer to the section “The bipolar RFITT coagulation modes” on page
63.
3.4.3 Automatic instrument recognition
The electrosurgical generator is equipped with a radio transmitting and receiving technology. Therefore, the selected CELON bipolar applicator that is connected to the electrosurgical generator is recognized automatically. This means:
3.4.4 Automatic wear-out detection
- The name of the connected CELON bipolar applicator is displayed in the BIPOLAR pane of the touch screen, e. g. [ProBreath] or [ProSleep plus].
- Only compatible modes and output power settings are available.
- The user can select one of these compatible modes and can change the output power level within a restricted range.
Other radio transmitters and receivers, e. g. mobile phones, may interfere with the automatic instrument recognition.
• To avoid interference observe the instructions in the chapter “Electromagnetic
compatibility” on page 92.
To protect the patient from a worn-out instrument the bipolar applicators are equipped with memory chips that record the usage. When the permitted usage span is nearly reached, the electrosurgical generator alerts the user by emitting an alarm tone and displaying the following error message:
23

DRAFT 2017-01-17
At this stage and as soon as the treatment situation allows, the user needs to replace the bipolar applicator.
When the permitted usage span is exceeded, the following error message is displayed:
When this error message is displayed, it is impossible to activate the bipolar applicator anymore.
