ABSTRACT:
A laser connector and electronic security system for a laser delivery system controls connection of the delivery system to a source of laser energy for medical procedures by storing encrypting codes to allow access by authorized, unused, delivery assemblies. The connector is specially dimensioned to further control delivery system access to the source, and the electronic security system utilizes EEPROM memory to allow storage and accumulation of information about the laser parameters used in the medical procedure. The connector and electronic security system is particularly suitable for pulsed laser transmyocardial revascularization (TMR) procedures and enables automatic power level calibration in accordance with the connected delivery system specifications, maximum time of usage settings, storage of the number/power level of the pulses delivered, and storage of the total number of TMR channels created.
