Overview and General Features
Overview and General Features The generator is designed to provide a vessel sealing application. It features a simple interface and automatically detects LigaSure instruments and configures the generator accordingly. Safety and diagnostic functionality include automatic fail-safe functions. The generator is a bipolar electrosurgical generator and works with LigaSure instruments as a system. Covidien offers a selection of LigaSure instruments that are fully compatible with this generator. The generator supports only compatible Covidien LigaSure instruments.
Indications for Use The Valleylab LS10 is an electrosurgical generator containing LigaSure vessel sealing technology. The vessel sealing function is indicated for use in sealing (fusing) vessels up to, and including, 7 mm in diameter, tissue bundles, and lymphatics during general surgery including, but not limited to, surgical specialties such as urologic, vascular, thoracic, gynecologic, plastic and reconstructive, and colorectal. Refer to each instrument’s instructions for use (IFU) for additional indications, warnings, and specific contraindications. The LigaSure system has not been shown to be effective for tubal sterilization or tubal coagulation for sterilization procedures. Do not use this function for these procedures.

Generator Back Panel
The LigaSure vessel sealing mode can be used on arteries, veins, pulmonary vasculature, and lymphatics up to and including 7 mm in diameter and tissue bundles. This system provides precise energy delivery and electrode pressure to vessels for a controlled time period to achieve a complete and permanent fusion of the vessel lumen. The system is designed to produce minimal sticking, charring, and thermal spread to adjacent tissue.
Introduction
LigaSure Mode
Warning Do not attempt to fuse lung tissue with LigaSure mode or instruments without first consulting the respective instructions for use to ensure the use is indicated.
LigaSure Instruments The LigaSure instruments that complete the Valleylab vessel sealing system include reusable and single-use instruments for open and minimally-invasive procedures. Refer to each instrument’s instruction for use (IFU) for additional indications, warnings, and specific contraindications. The LigaSure function is only available when using Covidien LigaSure instruments. The footswitch will be disabled upon insertion for some LigaSure instruments. To determine which instrument this applies to, conduct the following: 1. Connect a LS0300 (purple) footswitch to the rear panel footswitch connector. 2. Insert a LigaSure instrument into the LigaSure receptacle on the front panel. 3. Attempt to activate the footswitch. 4. If there is an “invalid activation” tone, it may indicate a disabled footswitch for that
particular instrument.
