Joint surgical system
A joint surgical system includes, a treatment tool, a high-frequency output section which outputs high-frequency energy to the treatment tool, an ultrasonic output section which outputs ultrasonic energy to the treatment tool, a measurement section which measures a temperature of the liquid, and a control section which controls the high-frequency output section to stop output of the high-frequency energy and controls the ultrasonic output section to continue output of the ultrasonic energy when a measurement temperature measured by the measurement section is equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature.
1. A joint surgical system comprising:
a treatment tool configured to give a high-frequency treatment using a high-frequency current and an ultrasonic treatment using ultrasonic vibration to treat a treatment target region in a joint cavity filled with a liquid having electrical conductivity;
a high-frequency output circuit which is configured to output high-frequency energy for the high-frequency treatment to the treatment tool;
an ultrasonic output circuit which is configured to output ultrasonic energy for the ultrasonic treatment to the treatment tool;
a sensor which is configured to measure a temperature of the liquid; and
a controller which is configured to control:
the high-frequency output circuit to stop output of the high-frequency energy, and
the ultrasonic output circuit to continue output of the ultrasonic energy when a measurement temperature measured by the sensor is equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature,
wherein, when the measurement temperature is equal to or higher than the predetermined temperature, the controller is configured to control the ultrasonic output circuit so that the ultrasonic energy decreases to be lower than that in a state where the measurement temperature is lower than the predetermined temperature.
2. The system according to claim 1 ,
wherein, when the measurement temperature is equal to or higher than the predetermined temperature, the controller is configured to control the ultrasonic output circuit so that the ultrasonic energy increases to be higher than that in a state where the measurement temperature is lower than the predetermined temperature.
3. The system according to claim 1 , further comprising:
an endoscope apparatus which enables visually confirming the treatment target region; and
a display section which is configured to display video images taken by the endoscope apparatus,
wherein the controller is configured to display the measurement temperature in the display section.
4. The system according to claim 3 ,
wherein the controller is configured to display estimation information estimated from the measurement temperature in the display section.
5. The system according to claim 1 ,
wherein the sensor is provided at a position on the treatment tool where it comes into contact with the liquid.
6. The system according to claim 1 , further comprising a tubular portion which is configured to guide the treatment tool into the joint cavity,
wherein the sensor is provided at a position on the tubular portion where it comes into contact with the liquid.
7. A joint surgical system comprising:
a treatment tool configured to give a high-frequency treatment and an ultrasonic treatment to treat a treatment target region in a joint cavity filled with a liquid having electrical conductivity;
a high-frequency output circuit which is configured to output high-frequency energy for the high-frequency treatment to the treatment tool;
an ultrasonic output circuit which is configured to output ultrasonic energy for the ultrasonic treatment to the treatment tool; and
a controller which is configured to:
estimate a temperature of the liquid, and
control the high-frequency output circuit to stop output of the high-frequency energy, and also control the ultrasonic output circuit to continue output of the ultrasonic energy when an estimated temperature provided by the estimation is equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature.
8. The system according to claim 7 ,
wherein, when the estimated temperature is equal to or higher than the predetermined temperature, the controller is configured to control the ultrasonic output circuit so that the ultrasonic energy increases to be higher than that in a state where the estimated temperature is lower than the predetermined temperature.
9. The system according to claim 7 ,
wherein, when the estimated temperature is equal to or higher than the predetermined temperature, the controller is configured to control the ultrasonic output circuit so that the ultrasonic energy decreases to be lower than that in a state where the estimated temperature is lower than the predetermined temperature.
10. The system according to claim 7 , further comprising:
an endoscope apparatus which enables visually confirming the treatment target region; and
a display section which is configured to display video images taken by the endoscope apparatus,
wherein the controller is configured to display the estimated temperature in the display section.
11. The system according to claim 10 ,
wherein the controller is configured to display estimation information estimated from the estimated temperature in the display section.
