The stapler further incorporates a drive assembly connected to the motor, a sensor to measure motor or drive assembly parameters, and a processor for operational management. The processor executes an interlock verification process, moving the drive assembly to specific positions to assess the lockout mechanism's status, whether a staple ejecting sled is missing, or the cartridge has been fired, based on sensor data. Depending on the lockout mechanism's state, the processor enables or disables the firing process to eject staples.
The technology relates to an electrosurgical generator (ESG) that includes a feedback controller for implementing closed-loop control of one or more output radio-frequency currents supplied to one or more surgical instruments. The surgical instruments are used in a monopolar energy pathway that includes a neutral electrode for returning the current to the ESG. The feedback controller monitors a rolling total average of the heat energy (in amperes- squared*time) supplied by the ESG (and optionally, by other ESGs) and compares the total average to a threshold heat energy associated with the neutral electrode. The feedback controller outputs a total current that can be supplied by the ESG(s) to remain below the threshold. The ESG (or ESGs) adjusts the RF current output(s) based on the total current output by the feedback controller.
