Radio Frequency Generator Description
Alert Messages
An alert message occurs when the radio frequency generator
detects a problem with the needle impedance, the urethral
temperature, or the system equipment (ie, generator, hand piece,
return electrode). An alert message can appear on the screen
either during a lesion, before a lesion, or after a lesion. Alert
messages also include the probable cause and the recommended
corrective action.
The selection of the appropriate corrective action is in the
clinician's sole medical judgement.
If an alert condition occurs with the radio frequency energy
on, the alert automatically stops the lesion. It turns off the
radio frequency energy output to both channels. The
simultaneous lesion abort and alert message comprises the
system's safety shutdown feature (see: "Safety Shutdown
Conditions" on page 58).
All system alert messages require some corrective action by the
clinician.
Some alert messages stay on the LCD screen until the clinician
clears the causing condition, while other messages will clear from
the screen in five to ten seconds.
There are also audible alarms for each message, which vary with
the type of message. The occurrence and duration of the alarm
tones and messages are explained in Table 2-7 on page 42.
