CAUTION
When the ultrasonic endoscope projects light at high brightness and
transmission of ultrasonic waves for a long time, the temperature may
exceed 41°C at the distal end. Turn off the lamp and stop transmission
of ultrasonic waves (Freeze the ultrasonic processor) when you hang
the ultrasonic endoscope on the cart hanger.
Immediately after removing the LG connector from the light source, do
not touch the light guide rod with hands since it is extremely hot. There
is a risk of burn injury.
Set the suction pressure between 40 and 53 kPa. If the suction
pressure is too high, the ultrasonic endoscope may adhere to mucous
membrane, resulting in damage to the mucous membrane.
Do not look directly into the light coming from the light guide at the
distal end of the ultrasonic endoscope. Turn off the lamp before
inspecting the objective lens. Viewing the light from the light guide
directly may damage your eyes.
If the balloon or other parts fall into a body cavity due to a malfunction
of the device, immediately stop the procedure and retrieve the parts by
following appropriate measures. There is a risk of damaging the inside
of the body cavity.
