4.7 Inspecting Functions Used in Combination with Related
Equipment
4.7.1 Inspecting Endoscopic Images
Confirm that endoscopic images are normally displayed on the monitor and that the images are
clear, sharp, of appropriate color and accuracy of observed target sites.
WARNING
• Do not look directly into the light coming from the light guide at the distal end of the
endoscope. Viewing the light from the light guide directly may damage your eyes.
CAUTION
• When turning off the processor, also turn off the light source. If the light source remains on
after turning off the processor, the ALC (automatic light control) does not function and the
maximum amount of light is emitted. As a result, the distal end of the endoscope and its
surroundings may become hot, causing burn injury to the patient or end-user.
• Turn off the light of the light source except during an inspection or procedure, etc., when
necessary. If the light of the light source is left on, the distal end of the endoscope and its
surroundings may become hot, causing burn injury to the patient or end-user.
Note
Use the processor to assign functions on each scope switch. For details, see the
operation manual of the processor.
(1)
Turn on the cart, processor, light source and monitor.
(2)
Turn on the light of the light source and make sure that the light is emitted from the light guide
of the distal end.
(3)
Observe the endoscopic image while moving your palm toward and away from the objective
lens or lightly grasping the distal end. Confirm that the endoscopic image is free from noise,
blur, fog, or other irregularities.
Note
If the endoscopic image cannot be seen clearly, wipe the objective lens with sterile
gauze moistened with alcohol.
