A surgical apparatus has a clamp and a stapling mechanism. The clamp has a first jaw and a second jaw to clamp on a body tissue at a desired location for a stapling operation. The stapling mechanism is controlled by a trigger handle or a switch assembly. The surgical apparatus has a controller for providing a delay between clamping and actuating of the firing mechanism of the stapling mechanism. The delay provides for a desired amount of time for tissue compression producing a more uniform staple formation. The surgical apparatus also has an indicator. The indicator provides feedback about the status of the stapling mechanism and also displays a time of tissue compression by the clamp.

La pince comporte une première mâchoire et une seconde mâchoire pour pincer un tissu corporel à une localisation souhaitée pour une opération d'agrafage. Le mécanisme d'agrafage est commandé par une poignée de déclenchement ou un ensemble interrupteur. L'appareil chirurgical comporte un dispositif de commande pour produire un délai entre le pincement et l'actionnement du mécanisme de déclenchement du mécanisme d'agrafage. Le délai dispose d'une quantité de temps désirée pour une compression du tissu produisant une formation d'agrafe plus uniforme. L'appareil chirurgical comprend également un indicateur.
