How to Use
This chapter describes the basic operation procedures of this product and precautions to
observe.
This product is intended for use by medical professionals who have received proper training in
endoscopic procedures at medical facilities under the management of physicians. This manual
does not provide information about procedures or any aspects of endoscopic techniques.
WARNING
• Make sure to inspect the endoscope and accessories before use according to the
procedures provided in this manual. Do not use the equipment that shows any signs
of abnormality or irregularity. Use of abnormal equipment may lead to misdiagnosis or
increase risks to patient safety.
• Wear personal protective equipment (such as goggles, facemask, chemical-resistant and
waterproof gloves, antifouling protective clothing, cap and shoe covers) during a procedure
as well as during reprocessing to protect your eye and skin and to prevent infection. Not
doing so may cause infection.
• Do not supply an excessive amount of air or gas during a procedure. Doing so may cause
patient pain, injury to tissues in the body cavity, bleeding, perforation and/or embolism.
• During an inspection or procedure, use sterile water. If sterile water is not used, it can
create a risk of infection.
• Never use endotherapy devices, operate, insert or withdraw the endoscope, or operate the
related equipment without viewing or while freezing the endoscopic image on the monitor.
Otherwise, injury to tissues in the body cavity, bleeding and/or perforation may result.
Note • Always observe the patient closely. If the patient has symptoms suggestive of an
embolism, discontinue the endoscopic procedure immediately and give proper
medical treatment.
• Ensure that all related equipment has been properly prepared and processed as per
instructions provided with each item.
