Biological hazard
For patient and personnel safety, beware of biological hazards
while performing transesophageal procedures. To avoid the
risk of disease transmission:
• Use protective barriers (gloves and probe sheaths)
whenever necessary. Follow sterile procedures as
required.
• Thoroughly clean probes and reusable accessories after
each patient examination and disinfect or sterilize as
needed. Refer to Chapter 10, "Probes" on page 263, for
probe use and care instructions.
• Follow all in-house infection control policies as they apply
to personnel and equipment.
Pacemaker hazard
The possibility of the system interfering with pacemakers is
minimal. However, as this system generates high frequency
electrical signals, the operator should be aware of the potential
hazard this could cause.
