摘要:
An end effector for use with an ultrasonic surgical instrument. A body extendsalong a longitudinal axis. The body includes a proximal end and a distal end. Theproximal end of the body is configured to couple to an ultrasonic transducer configuredto produce vibrations at a predetermined frequency. A folded element includesa first end coupled to the distal end of the body at a predetermined region betweena node and an antinode. The folded element extends along the longitudinal axisfrom the distal end to the proximal end of the body. The folded element comprisesa second free acoustic end. A distal portion of the body and the folded elementdefine a parallel acoustic path.
