Abstract:
An electrosurgical system includes an electrosurgical instrument coupled to an electrosurgical generator. The electrosurgical system may include a first sensor and a second sensor, which are configured to detect redundant tissue properties and output a signal corresponding thereto. The electrosurgical system has a signal processing circuit for receiving and modifying the output signal from the second sensor. The electrosurgical generator may include a controller for receiving an output signal from the first sensor and a processed signal from the signal processing circuit. The controller compares the two signals received and shuts down the system based on the comparison of the first sensor and a processed signal.

Claim (Index 18):
An electrosurgical system, comprising:\n a signal processing circuit operably coupled to a first sensor, that measures at least one property of electrosurgical energy and outputs a first signal, and a second sensor, that measures the at least one property of the electrosurgical energy and outputs a second signal, the signal processing circuit configured to receive the second signal, to modify the second signal, and to output a processed signal; and a controller configured to:\n receive the first signal and the processed signal; \n compare the first signal and the processed signal; \n convert the processed signal back to the second signal when a difference between the first signal and the processed signal exceeds a predetermined amount; \n compare the first signal to the second signal converted from the processed signal; and \n terminate an output of electrosurgical energy when the first signal and the processed signal are substantially identical.
