EVIS LUCERA GIF/CF/PCF TYPE 260 Series OPERATION MANUAL
5.2 Withdrawal of the endoscope with an irregularity
If an irregularity occurs while the endoscope is in use, take proper measures as
described in either “Withdrawal when the WLI and NBI endoscopic images
appear on the monitor”, “Withdrawal when either the WLI or the NBI endoscopic
image does not appear on the monitor”, “Withdrawal when all endoscopic
images do not appear on the monitor or a frozen image cannot be restored”, or
“Withdrawal when the image magnification function is unavailable” on page 117
below. After withdrawal, return the endoscope for repair as described in Section
5.3, “Returning the endoscope for repair” on page 118.
If the endoscope or EndoTherapy accessory cannot be
withdrawn from the patient smoothly, do not attempt to
forcibly withdraw it. Should any irregularity be observed,
immediately contact Olympus. Forcibly withdrawing the
endoscope or EndoTherapy accessory may cause patient
injury, bleeding, and/or perforation.
Withdrawal when the WLI and NBI endoscopic images appear
on the monitor
1.
Turn all equipment OFF except the video system center, light source,
monitor, and suction pump. When using the CF-H260AZL/I, do not turn the
magnification controller OFF.
2. When the NBI endoscopic image is displayed, switch to the WLI endoscopic
image by operating the video system center and light source.
3. When an endoscope with zoom function is used, move the zoom lever
toward “W ” so that the widest possible angle is shown in the endoscopic
image (for GIF-H260Z, CF-H260AZL/I, PCF-Q260AZI only).
4. When using the image magnification function of the video system center,
release the function.
5. When using an EndoTherapy accessory, close the tip of the EndoTherapy
accessory and/or retract it into its sheath. Then withdraw the EndoTherapy
accessory slowly.
6. Aspirate accumulated air, blood, mucus, or other debris by depressing the
suction valve.
7. When using an endoscope with the flexibility adjustment function, set the
insertion section to its most flexible condition (for endoscopes with flexibility
adjustment only).
