6 Transesophageal Transducer
6 - 6 Instructions for Use
Flex Controls (V5Ms)
The flex controls manipulate the movement of the distal tip.
Example of flex controls located on the handle of the V5Ms transducer.
Anterior/Posterior Deflection
For anterior deflection (anteflexion) of the distal tip, rotate the anterior/posterior flex control
toward the A marking to move the tip anteriorly.
For posterior deflection (retroflexion) of the distal tip, rotate the anterior/posterior flex control
toward the P marking to move the tip posteriorly.
Right/Left Deflection
For right deflection of the distal tip, rotate the left/right flex control toward the R marking to
move the tip right.
For left deflection of the distal tip, rotate the left/right flex control toward the L marking to move
the tip left.
Neutral Position
To place the distal tip in the neutral position, rotate the anterior/posterior flex control and the
right/left flex control to align the N marking and raised reference lines with the raised reference
line on the handle of the transducer.
Example of flex controls in the neutral alignment.
1 Anterior/Posterior flex control
2 Left/Right flex control
