The forceps (10) also includes a switch assembly (180) that includes a supporting member (181), a flexible membrane circuit (200) having snap dome switch contacts 5 operably fixed thereto, and ergonomically-contoured keytops (60, 65). The switch assembly (180) provides at least one monopolar activation switch (65), and a bipolar activation switch (460). The forceps (10) also include a drive mechanism (130) which causes the jaw members (110, 120) to move relative to one another for manipulating tissue. A monopolar safety switch (430) is incorporated into the switch assembly (180) 1o which cooperates with the drive mechanism (130) to inhibit the monopolar activation switch (65) when the jaw members (110, 120) are in an open position.
