摘要:
An end effector includes a first and second jaw member each comprising a first and second electrode. The first and second jaw members are movable relative to the other between an open position and a closed position. An electrically conductive member is located at the distal end of the first jaw member. The electrically conductive member is sized and configured to define a minimum distance between the first and second electrodes along the length of the first and second electrodes. An electrically insulative member is located on one of the first jaw member or the second jaw member. The electrically insulative member is sized and configured to engage tissue and has a dimension extending from one of the first jaw member or the second jaw member. The dimension is less than the minimum distance.
