# Lifting device glossary

> Read energy, accessory and authorization terms within the source role that defines them.

A circuit term, a body-area indication and a label identifier describe different fields even when they appear in one product description.

## How should lifting device glossary terms be combined?

Use one field for each term: energy, delivery, identity, jurisdiction or document revision.

Monopolar RF describes a circuit, while a penetrating tip describes delivery and clearance identifies a regulatory pathway. None of those words alone selects a treatment for a person. Source links retain the document behind the definition.

## What else do people ask about lifting device glossary?

### Are glossary definitions device recommendations?

They explain source terms without selecting a treatment.

### Does RF always mean a needle?

The exact electrode and applicator determine penetration.

### Does IFU mean the newest record?

The revision needs checking against later events.

### Does an identifier state an indication?

Identification and indications have separate document roles.

### Does unverified mean absent?

It records a gap in this research rather than the absence of authorization.
