S2/S2BW
Digital Color Doppler Ultrasound System
1. To prevent disease transmission, wear sterile gloves.
2. Put an adequate amount of coupling gel on the probe head or into the probe sheath.
3. Insert the transducer into the probe sheath.
Use of sterile, legally marketed probe sheath is required for
intracavitary operations. If lubricant is used, it must be water-
soluble.Do not apply coupling gel directly on the patient skin.
4. Cover the probe with the probe sheath up to the user section (probe handle).
5.
Examine the integrity of the probe sheath. If breakage occurs, repeat from step 1 to replace the sheath
with another new one.
13.3.4 Scanning
Refer to Chapter 4 to turn on the system and start an ultrasound diagnosis.
13.4 Probe Maintenance: Cleaning and Disinfection
Clean the transducer and the probe handle after each use.
For surface probes, disinfect the transducer periodically. For intracavitary probes, disinfecting the transducer
after each use is required.
Keep a log of maintenance (inspection, cleaning and disinfection) and malfunction.
13.4.1 Probe immersion level
Figure 13.1: Surface probes
Figure 13.2:
Intracavitary probe
For surface probes, do not immerse the probe beyond its binding line (refer to Figure 13.1).
For intracavitary probes, the allowed immersion level is shown in Figure 13.2.
Warning!
• DO NOT use solutions containing alcohol, mineral oil for cleaning or disinfecting probes.
•
Wear medical sterile gloves to prevent potential disease transmission. Wear protective goggle
if necessary.
• DO NOT apply solutions containing ethyl oxides on the probe.
