Zusammenfassung:In an exemplary arrangement, a vapor generator for use in a medical device may include a heating core in fluid communication with a source of fluid and defining at least one fluid pathway along which fluid from the source of fluid travels. The at least one fluid pathway may include one or more surfaces that generate turbulence in the fluid. The vapor generator may also include a coil disposed about the heating core, wherein the coil is configured to receive a current so as to heat the fluid traveling along the at least one fluid pathway, thereby generating a vapor.
