Abstract
An ultrasonic surgical system is presented that is economical to produce and utilize, by including at least one disposable component. The ultrasonic surgical system includes an ultrasonic transducer for converting electric signals into ultrasonic vibrations. An ultrasonic transmission coupler is connected to the transducer, so as to receive the ultrasonic vibrations from the transducer. An ultrasonic vibration element is coupled to the distal end of the ultrasonic transmission coupler. At least one of the ultrasonic transducer, the ultrasonic transmission coupler, and the ultrasonic vibration element is disposable. The components of the ultrasonic surgical system are not precision-cut, and are adapted to be press-fit onto each other. The ultrasonic surgical system may be tuned to a desired resonant frequency by varying the lengths of the disposable components.
