Safety Precautions

CAUTION:

X

Do not apply mechanical shock to the probe.

X

Do not place the probe cable on the floor where it can be run over by the wheels of equipment.

Do not apply excessive force to bend or pull the cable.

X

Do not immerse the probe in any inappropriate substances such as alcohol, bleach, ammonium

chloride, or hydrogen peroxide.

X

Do not expose the probe to temperatures of +50°C or higher.

The probe can easily be damaged by improper use or by contact with certain chemical substances.

Always follow the instructions in the user manual to inspect the probe cable, case and lens before and

after each use.

Check the probe for cracks, broken parts, leaks and sharp edges. If there is any sign of damage, stop using

the probe immediately and contact Samsung Medison Customer Service. Using damaged probes may

result in electric shock and other hazards to the patient and/or user.

Use of Probes and Infection Control

WARNING:

No neurosurgical treatments or examinations should be carried out on a patient with

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (a critical brain disease caused by a virus). If the probe has been used on

such a patient, it cannot be sterilized by any method whatsoever.

CAUTION:

Suﬃcient cleaning and disinfecting must be carried out to prevent infection. This is the

responsibility of the user who maintains the disinfection procedures for the equipment. Always use

legally approved detergents and sheaths.

An ultrasonographic image scanner uses ultrasound waves, and it makes direct contact with the

patient when in use. Depending on the type of examination, such contact can be made in a wide

variety of locations including on normal skin or at the location of blood transfusion during surgery.

The most eective method to prevent infection in patients is to use each probe only once. However,

probes may need to be re-used as they are complex in design and expensive. Consequently, protective

devices such as sheaths must be used, and the safety instructions must be followed carefully in order

to minimize the risk of infection in patients.
