Zusammenfassung:An aspiration system to control vacuum pressure in an ultrasonic surgical handpiece to result in improved control responsiveness during aspiration is described. The system comprises a console comprising a vacuum pump, a surgical waste receiver, a clean side flow path, the clean side flow path positioned between the vacuum pump and the surgical waste receiver, a dirty side flow path, a fluid backflow device in communication with the dirty side flow path, a clean side venting mechanism in communication with the clean side flow path, and a second venting mechanism in communication with the fluid backflow device, wherein the dirty side flow path is positioned between the ultrasonic surgical handpiece and the fluid backflow device.
