10.1.3 Impede-Out Recovery Routine
When an impede-out occurs, the Generator attempts to reestablish tissue connection by turning the
RF energy off and infusing saline at a higher rate. While this is occurring, the LCD display will read
“INFUSING – POWER ON in XX” where “XX” is a countdown for when the RF energy will be turned
back on. If there are successive impede-outs, more time and higher infusion is used to establish a
better tissue connection.
