Philips Healthcare 4535 618 58571_A/795 * MAY 2016
WARNING
Do not use a system that exhibits erratic or inconsistent image updating. Discontinuities in
the scanning sequence indicate a hardware failure that must be corrected before use.
WARNING
Perform ultrasound procedures prudently. Use the ALARA (as low as reasonably achievable)
principle.
WARNING
Use only acoustic standoffs that have been approved by Philips Ultrasound. For information
on ordering approved accessories, see “Supplies and Accessories” on page 16.
WARNING
Transducer covers may contain natural rubber latex. Those covers may cause allergic
reactions in some individuals. See “FDA Medical Alert on Latex” on page 35.
WARNING
If a sterile transducer cover becomes compromised during an intraoperative application
involving a patient with transmissible spongiform encephalopathy, such as Creutzfeldt-
Jakob disease, follow the guidelines of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and this
document from the World Health Organization: WHO/CDS/ APH/2000/3, WHO Infection
Control Guidelines for Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies. The transducers for your
system cannot be decontaminated using a heat process.
