Fluent Pro Fluid Management System
English Troubleshooting 61
5.3.4 Poor Visibility
5.3.4.1 Verify that the Fluid Bag Clamp is open.
5.3.4.2 If bleeding is obscuring the visibility, the Intrauterine Pressure may need to be adjusted during the procedure to
provide a tamponade effect.
5.3.4.3 If performing a MyoSure procedure, advance the MyoSure Tissue Removal Device to the fundus and allow
circulation of fluid through the non-active blade to clear field.
5.3.4.4 Ensure the outflow stopcock is fully open.
5.3.5
Poor Uterine Distension
5.3.5.1 Avoid over dilation of the cervix. If the cervix is over dilated, use a second tenaculum to seal the cervix.
5.3.5.2 Verify the Fluid Bag Clamp is open.
5.3.5.3 Ensure the inflow tubing is not occluded or pinched.
5.3.5.4 Ensure the inflow stopcock is fully open.
5.3.5.5 Ensure the pressure setting is adequate.
5.3.5.6 Reprime the hysteroscope. Refer to Section 2.7.9.
5.3.6
Tissue Resection Difficulty
5.3.6.1 Ensure the appropriate MyoSure TRD is being used for the tissue being resected.
5.3.6.2 Ensure the MyoSure TRD is flexible drive cable is fully inserted into the corresponding connection on the
MyoSure Panel of the Fluent Pro Fluid Management System.
5.3.6.3 Ensure the MyoSure TRD is fully inserted through the hysteroscope, and the entire cutting window is visualized
at the end of the hysteroscope.
5.3.6.4 Orient the MyoSure TRD cutting window against the tissue when the foot pedal is activated. If you see flashing
from the scope, it means the window is not pushing directly on the tissue.
5.3.6.5 Ensure the outflow tubing is not occluded or pinched.
5.3.6.6 Avoid applying excessive force to the MyoSure TRD handle.
5.3.7
Fluid Deficit Difficulty
5.3.7.1 Refer to scale calibration check, Section 6.1.1
WARNING!
If the deficit is rapidly increasing, or the visualization field does not respond to a change in pressure set point,
this may indicate that the uterus has been perforated or that fluid is escaping elsewhere. Examine the visual
field for injury or a leak from the cervix.
5.3.8
Power Loss
5.3.8.1 If the Fluent Pro Fluid Management System powers down or loses power unexpectedly, wait at least
15 seconds then power on the system and follow on-screen prompts. To resume the previous procedure, refer
to Section 5.2.
5.3.8.2 If the system will not power on, verify the following:
WARNING!
