1-8 Safety Precautions
7.
A transducer sheath must be installed over the transducer before
performing examination.
Caution:
1. When using the probe, wear sterile gloves to prevent infection.
2. Be sure to use sterile ultrasound gel. Please use the ultrasound gel
compliant with the relevant local regulations. And manage the ultrasound gel
properly to ensure that it does not become a source of infection.
3. In normal diagnostic ultrasound mode, there is no danger of a normal-
temperature burn; however, keeping the probe on the same region of the
patient for a long time may cause such a burn.
4. Do not use the carrying case for storing the transducer. If the carrying case
is used for storage, it may become a source of infection.
5. It is required to practice ALARA when operating ultrasound system. Minimize
the acoustic power without compromising the quality of images.
6. The probe and accessories supplied with it are not delivered disinfected or
sterilized. Sterilization (or high-level disinfect) before use is required.
7.
Disposable components should be packaged sterile and for single-use only.
Do not use if integrity of packaging violated or if expiration date has passed.
Please use the disposable components compliant with the relevant local
regulations.
8. Please use the disinfection or sterilization solution recommended in this
operator’s manual; otherwise Mindray will not be liable for damage caused
by other solutions. If you have any questions, please contact Mindray
Customer Service Department or sales representative.
9. Do not use pre-lubricated condoms as a sheath. Lubricant may not be
compatible with the probe material and damage may result.
10.
The damage of the transducer may be caused by the contact of improper gel
or cleaner:
 DO NOT dip the transducer in the strong polar solution of ethanol,
chloride of lime, ammonium chloride, acetone and formaldehyde.
 DO NOT contact the transducer with solution or ultrasound gel
containing oily medium such as mineral oil or lanoline.
NOTE: Read the following precautions to prevent probe malfunction:
 Before connecting or disconnecting the probe, freeze or turn off the diagnostic
ultrasound system.
 Clean and disinfect the probe before and after each examination.
 After an examination, wipe the ultrasound gel off thoroughly. Failure to do so may
result in the ultrasound gel solidifying and the image quality being degraded.
To prevent the probe from being damaged, do not use it where it will be exposed to:
 Direct sunlight or X-rays
 Sudden changes in temperature
 Dust
 Excessive vibration
 Heat generators
