Use of Transducer sheath
CAUTION
1. Always wear gloves to perform the following steps.
2. To minimize disease transmission, legally marketed, sterile transducer sheath is required to use
for intra-cavitary procedures.
3. DO NOT use an expired transducer sheath. Check whether the term of validity has expired prior
to using transducer sheaths.
4. The single-use sheath should comply with the local regulations.
5. Before cleaning or disinfecting the transducer, remove the sheath gently and discard it. Put on a
new single-use sheath before using the transducer.
6. Use of protective sheath with natural rubber latex may lead to a severe anaphylactic reaction in
persons sensitive to the natural latex protein.
7. Transducer sheath should be used with all clinical situations where infection is a concern.
To install transducer sheath:
1. Place an adequate amount of sterile coupling gel in the protective sheath and/or on the acoustic
window of the transducer;
2. Insert the transducer into the sheath;
3. Pull the sheath over the transducer and cable until the sheath is fully extended. Check and
eliminate bubbles between the surface of the transducer and the sheath. Be careful not to pierce
the sheath.
4. Secure the sheath using the bands or clips supplied with the sheath;
5. Inspect the sheath to ensure that there are no damages (i.e. holes or tears).
