Precautions
1.12.3 Abnormalities during Use of This Product
WARNING
• If any abnormality occurs during use, carry out safety checks such as checking the
patient's condition and discontinue use immediately. Not doing so may seriously affect
patient safety.
• If an abnormality occurs during a treatment, stop the treatment immediately and slowly
pull out the endotherapy device from the endoscope. If the endotherapy device cannot
be pulled out from the endoscope, withdraw the tip of the endotherapy device to the
instrument channel outlet of the endoscope, and then slowly pull out the endoscope and
endotherapy device together. If the treatment is not stopped or the endotherapy device is
forcibly pulled out, it may cause injury to tissues in the patient’s body cavity, bleeding and/
or perforation.
• During a procedure, if any abnormality (loss of image, dark image, bright image, etc.) is
found in the endoscopic image, the imaging section may malfunction. If this happens, stop
the treatment immediately and slowly pull out the endoscope. If the endoscope is used
as it is, it may cause overheating of the distal end, possibly resulting in mucosal burns or
other injury.
• If it is necessary to supply air or water from the suction connector when an abnormality is
found in the suction valve during a procedure, do so while pressing the suction valve. If
air or water is supplied without pressing the suction valve, body fluids may leak or splash
from the suction valve, posing an infection control risk.
Note
If any abnormality occurs with this product, refer to “Chapter 6 Troubleshooting.”
Should any safety concerns arise with this product, contact your local FUJIFILM
dealer.
1.12.4 Precautions for Distal Elevator/Recess
CAUTION
• Lower the forceps elevator before inserting or withdrawing the endoscope. Not doing so
may cause patient injury.
