Controlled Voltage of Hot Snare Polypectomy Device in Electrosurgical Device

The study aimed to understand the working procedure of the Olympus PSD-30 Electrosurgical Unit, in which a high-frequency alternating current measures the voltage and power output from the unit when used for a surgical operation to determine the extent of tissue damage. In examining this, power and voltage were analyzed using a stopwatch output; then with an Arduino time-based for 1, 2, and 3 seconds to understand the different modes of the cut and coagulation feedback with an RCC circuit used to mimic the human body. This shows a pattern in which the feedback power increases and the voltage decreases as the cut and coagulation mode increases. The percentage between the stopwatch and Arduino is 29% for the 1 and 2 seconds. With this information, Arduino Uno timing was used to experiment with the device for the different power settings for both the cut and coagulation modes from 2 W to 50 W at 5 W intervals. Based on each trial, the signal was measured for a magnitude of 1 Vpp, and the crest factor obtained was 1.5 with a voltage of 1.088 V and 1.0519 V for both the LabView and oscilloscope, respectively, for the electrosurgical unit of 350 kHz. The power control gives 0.4 W, 2.04 W, and 3.01 W for the power peak at 1, 2, and 3 seconds for the 50 W cut mode of the electrosurgical devices.
