1.3.4 Direct Harm to Human Body
WARNING
This product is used with a product that contains natural rubber as
a material. Natural rubber may rarely cause allergy symptoms, such
as itching, reddening, hives, swelling, fever, dyspnea, asthma-like
symptoms, drop in blood pressure and shock. If such symptoms
are observed, stop the use of this product immediately and take
appropriate measures.
Do not use this product with an endoscopic CO
2
regulator. If used, air
bubbles may be generated in the sterile water inside the water tank
and enter the balloon channel. This could prevent water discharge from
the balloon and disable deflation of the balloon.
Do not use a balloon on patients allergic to latex. There is a risk of an
anaphylactic reaction.
Do not supply an excessive amount of air or gas during the procedure
as doing so could cause an embolism. Do not overinsufflate during any
clinical procedure to minimize the potential for pneumatic perforation.
To avoid the potential for patient injury including perforation, do not
apply excessive force of the ultrasonic endoscope or endotherapy
device against mucosal surfaces. Only advance the endotherapy
device while viewing the endoscopic image.
Use the air/water channel cleaning adapter CA-609 only for cleaning
the air/water channel. If it is used during a procedure, continuous air
supply may occur and cause patient injury.
