TERMINOLOGY
The following terminology is used throughout this guide to describe specialized features and functionality of the Bovie Icon Gi™.
Touch Screen – Touch screen located on the unit’s front panel.This area is used to enter and view user selections such as modes,
power setting, and presets. From each screen, the user can navigate to and from additional screens.
Pop-Up Screen – Additional input and information screens that appear on the unit’s front panel. These windows display and allow
input for instructions, warnings and cautions and other information about the unit and its functionality. Pop-up screens can also
navigate the user to and from additional screens.
Bovie NEM™ – The contact quality monitoring system (NEM) detects the return electrode and contact quality between the return
pads and the patient. This feature is designed to minimize patient burns at the return electrode site.
Graphical User Interface (GUI) – This type of interface uses symbols,images or icons along with or rather than text to make
using the Icon Gi more user-friendly.
High Frequency Generator (HF Generator) – This type of equipment is used in medical procedures requiring electro surgery.
Electrosurgical Unit (ESU) – The ESU, combined with the appropriate electrosurgical accessory is used for a avriety of surgical
procedures.
Split Pad – With the exception of Warnings and Cautions, the term “split pad”will be used throughout this manual when
discussing patient pads,return electrodes, or patient return electrodes.This accessory is used during monopolar surgery to
maximize patient safety and site burns.
Cut/Blend Modes
Continued on following page.
iv Bovie Medical Corporation
Pure Cut – The Pure Cut mode is used when little coagulation is needed during endoscopic dissection or polypectomy.
This mode can be used for either dissection or removal of non-vascular polyps and clean dissection of non-vascular areas
or areas that can be spot coagulated after dissection. It may be useful for some minimally vascular polypectomy
procedures.
Safe Cut – During Safe Cut mode, the unit pulses between pure cut and gentle coag with a predetermined repetition rate.
This mode can be used when a controlled dissection is required. It is useful for ERCP examinations when Papillotomy is
performed and is also useful when piecemeal polypectomy is performed and preservation of the microscopic margins is
desired.
Blend 1 – This is a monopolar Cut mode that is modified to allow for minimal coagulation along the wound edges.
Intended uses are for minimally vascularized polyps and areas that can be spot coagulated, post dissection.
75% duty cycle.
Blend 2 – This is a monopolar Cut mode that is modified to allow for moderate coagulation along the wound edges.
Intended uses are for moderately vascular polyps and areas that can be spot coagulated, post dissection.62.5% duty cycle.
Blend 3– This is a monopolar Cut mode that is modified to allow for maximum coagulation along the wound edges.
Intended uses are for vascularized polyps and areas that can be spot coagulated, post dissection. 50% duty cycle.
Smart Cut– This mode is reserved for future Gi functionality.

Coag/Bipolar Modes
vUser’s Guide • Bovie Icon Gi™
Pinpoint – The Pinpoint mode is most effective with the electrode tip in direct contact with the tissue at the point of
bleeding. This mode will provide maximum hemostasis but may also result in some char or sticking depending on the
electrode utilized. This mode may also be used to dissect tissue with hemostasis.
Gentle Monopolar – Using the Gentle Coagulation mode will result in minimal charring or sticking of the electrode. The
electrode must be in direct contact with the tissue for positive results. It has no dissection ability.
Bipolar – Using the Bipolar mode does not require a patient return pad and is the most aggressive bipolar mode for
providing hemostasis. It can also be used for bipolar cutting instruments with direct contact to tissue.
Gentle Bipolar – The Gentle Bipolar mode does not require a patient return pad. This coagulation mode significantly
reduces charring and sticking of the electrode.

KEY FEATURES
The Icon Gi™ includes the latest technology. The unit utilizes a touch screen hardware interface in combination with a
software graphical user interface (GUI). This allows for simple touch control features and functionality selection with unsurpassed
performance, flexibility, reliability, and convenience for the user during endoscopic and laparoscopic procedures.
It includes the following features:
•NineModesofOperation
Pure Cut, Safe Cut, three levels of Blend, two levels of Coag (Pinpoint and Gentle), and two levels of Bipolar
These settings give the surgeon flexibility to cut all types of tissue without losing performance. Monopolar Pure Cut generates
constant output power over a wide range of impedances. Safe Cut generates a pulsed cut followed by a controlled period of gentle
coagulation. The three Blend modes generate minimal, moderate, and maximum coagulation along wound edges. The Bipolar
modes require no patient return pad.
•TouchScreen
The Icon Gi™ features touch screen functionality that allows the user to interact with the generator by touching the screen. All
user selections are entered on the touch screen.

SAFETY
The safe and effective use of electrosurgery depends to a large degree on factors solely under the control of the operator. There is no
substitute for a properly trained and vigilant medical staff. It is important that they read, understand, and follow the operating
instructions supplied with this electrosurgical equipment.
Physicians have used electrosurgical equipment safely in numerous procedures. Before starting any surgical procedure, the surgeon
should be familiar with the medical literature, complications, and hazards of using electrosurgery in that procedure.
To promote the safe use of the Icon Gi™, this section presents the warnings and cautions that appear throughout this user’s guide.
It is important that you read, understand, and follow the instructions in these warnings and cautions so that you can operate this
equipment with maximum safety. It is also important that you read, understand, and follow the instructions for use in this
user’s guide.
WARNINGS:
Hazardous Electrical Output - This equipment is for use only by trained, licensed physicians.
Danger: Fire / Explosion Hazard - Do not use the Icon Gi™ in the presence of flammable
materials.
Fire / Explosion Hazard - The following substances will contribute to increased fire and explosion
hazards in the operating room:
• Flammable substances (such as alcohol based skin prepping agents and tinctures)
• Naturally occurring flammable gases which may accumulate in body cavities such as
the bowel
• Oxygen enriched atmospheres
• Oxidizing agents (such as nitrous oxide [N20] atmospheres).
The sparking and heating associated with electrosurgery can provide an ignition source.
Observe fire precautions at all times. When using electrosurgery in the same room with any
of these substances or gases, prevent their accumulation or pooling under surgical drapes, or
within the area where electrosurgery is performed.
Connect the power cord to a properly polarized and grounded power source with the frequency
and voltage characteristics that match those listed on the back of the unit.
Electric Shock Hazard - Connect the unit power cord to a properly grounded receptacle. Do not
use power plug adapters.
Electric Shock Hazard - Always turn off and unplug the unit before cleaning.
Fire Hazard - Do not use extension cords.
Patient Safety - Use the unit only if the self-test has been completed as described. Otherwise,
inaccurate power outputs may result.
Failure of the high frequency electrosurgical equipment could result in an unintended increase of
output power.
The instrument receptacles on this unit are designed to accept only one instrument at a time. Do
not attempt to connect more than one instrument at a time into a given receptacle. Doing so will
cause simultaneous activation of the instruments.
Use the lowest output setting necessary to achieve the desired surgical effect. Use the active
electrode only for the minimum time necessary in order to lessen the possibility of unintended
burn injury. Pediatric applications and/or procedures performed on small anatomic structures may
require reduced power settings. The higher the current flow, and the longer the current is applied,
the greater the possibility of unintended thermal damage to tissue, especially during use on small
structures.
1-4 Bovie Medical Corporation

WARNINGS:
Use electrosurgery with caution in the presence of internal or external devices such as
pacemakers or pulse generators. Interference produced by the use of electrosurgical devices can
cause devices such as pacemakers to enter an asynchronous mode or can block the pacemaker
effect entirely. Consult the device manufacturer or hospital Cardiology Department for further
information when use of electrosurgical appliances is planned for patients with cardiac
pacemakers or other implantable devices.
If the patient has an Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD), contact the ICD manufacturer for
instructions before performing an electrosurgical procedure. Electrosurgery may cause multiple
activation of ICDs.
Do not use electrosurgical equipment unless properly trained to use it in the specific procedure
being undertaken. Use by physicians without such training has resulted in serious, unintended
patient injury, including bowel perforation and unintended, irreversible tissue necrosis.
For surgical procedures where the high frequency current could flow through parts of the body
having a relatively small cross-sectional area, the use of bipolar techniques may be desirable to
avoid unwanted coagulation.
In some circumstances, potential exists for alternate site burns at points of skin contact (e.g.,
between the arm and the side of the body). This occurs when electrosurgical current seeks a path
to the return electrode that includes the skin-to-skin contact point. Current passing through small
skin-to-skin contact points is concentrated and may cause a burn. This is true for grounded,
ground referenced, and isolated output units.
To reduce the potential for alternate site burns, do one or more of the following:
• Avoid skin-to-skin contact points, such as fingers touching leg, when positioning the patient.
• Place 5 to 8 cm (2 to 3 in.) of dry gauze between contact points to ensure that contact does
not occur.
• Position the return electrode to provide a direct current route between the surgical site and
the return electrode which avoids skin-to-skin contact areas.
• In addition, place patient return electrodes according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
Potential for alternate site burns increases if the return electrode is compromised. Bovie Medical
recommends the use of split return electrodes and Bovie units with a contact quality
monitoring system.
Do not wrap the accessory cords or return electrode cords around metal objects. This may induce
currents that could lead to shocks, fires, or injury to the patient or surgical team.
To avoid incompatibility and unsafe operation, use suitable cables, accessories, active and neutral
electrodes, including values for the highest allowed H.F. peak voltage.
Connected accessories need be rated for at least the maximum peak output voltage of the H.F.
generator set at the intended output control setting in the intended operating mode.
1-5User’s Guide • Bovie Icon Gi™

CAUTIONS:
At no time should you touch the active electrode or bipolar forceps. A burn could result.
Do not stack equipment on top of the unit or place the unit on top of electrical
equipment. These configurations are unstable and/or do not allow adequate cooling.
Provide as much distance as possible between the electrosurgical unit and other electronic
equipment (such as monitors). An activated electrosurgical unit may cause interference
with them.
Non-function of the unit may cause interruption of surgery. A backup unit should be available for
use.
Do not turn the activation tone down to an inaudible level. The activation tone alerts the surgical
team when an accessory is active.
When using a smoke evacuator in conjunction with the electrosurgical unit, place the smoke
evacuator a distance from the unit and set the unit volume control at a level that ensures that the
activation tones can be heard.
The use of high frequency current can interfere with the function of other electromagnetic
equipment.
When high frequency surgical equipment and physiological monitoring equipment are used
simultaneously on the same patient, place any monitoring electrodes as far as possible from
the surgical electrodes. Monitoring systems incorporating high frequency current-limiting devices
are recommended.
Do not use needles as monitoring electrodes during electrosurgical procedures. Inadvertent
electrosurgical burns may result.
To avoid the possibility of an electrosurgical burn to either the patient or the physicians, do
not allow the patient to come in contact with a grounded metal object during activation. When
activating the unit, do not allow direct skin contact between the patient and the physician.
Remove any loose fitting jewelry from the patient before activation.
Examine all accessories and connections to the electrosurgical unit before use. Ensure that the
accessories function as intended. Improper connection may result in arcs, sparks, accessory
malfunction, or unintended surgical effects.
When not using active accessories, place them in a holster or in a clean, dry, non-conductive, and
highly visible area not in contact with the patient. Inadvertent contact with the patient may result
in burns.
Studies have shown that smoke generated during electrosurgical procedures can be potentially
harmful to patients and the surgical team. These studies recommend adequately ventilating the
smoke by using a surgical smoke evacuator or other means.1
