The SPL‑T transducer converts generator output into combined continuous ultrasonic and intermittent mechanical (ballistic) energy, which is transmitted through single‑use ShockPulse probes to fragment and aspirate urinary stones during PCNL and URS procedures.
It features an ergonomic, single‑handed design with integrated suction and hand activation controls, connects to the ShockPulse‑SE console via a 10 ft (3 m) cable, and is validated for approximately 100 reprocessing cycles when cleaned and sterilized according to Olympus instructions.
Key features
-
Dual‑action lithotripsy delivery (ultrasound + mechanical impact) through a single probe for efficient stone fragmentation and evacuation.
- Handpiece dimensions: about 2 in (4.8 cm) diameter, 7.7 in (19.6 cm) length, ~0.99 lb (0.45 kg) weight; 10 ft (3 m) cable for flexibility in the OR.
- Integrated suction port on the transducer for connection to OR vacuum, enabling continuous or adjustable aspiration of stone fragments via the probe lumen.
- Designed for use with a full range of ShockPulse probes (PCNL, mini‑PCNL, URS, bladder), making it suitable across multiple urologic stone procedures.
