Mechanical
hazards
The use of damaged probes or improper use and manipulation
of intracavity probes can result in injury or increased risk of
infection. Inspect probes often for sharp, pointed, or rough
surface damage that could cause injury or tear protective
barriers. Never use excessive force when manipulating
intracavity probes. Become familiar with all instructions and
precautions provided with special purpose probes.

surface damage that could cause injury or tear protective
barriers. Become familiar with all instructions and precautions
provided with special purpose probes.
Electical
Hazard
A damaged probe can also increase the risk of electric shock if conductive
solutions come in contact with internal live parts. Inspect probes often for
cracks or openings in the housing and holes in and around the acoustic lens or
other damage that could allow liquid entry. Become familiar with the probe's
use and care precautions outlined in
Probes and Biopsy
.
CAUTION
Ultrasound transducers are sensitive instruments which can
easily be damaged by rough handling. Take extra care not to
drop transducers and avoid contact with sharp or abrasive
surfaces. A damaged housing, lens or cable can result in
patient injury or serious impairment or operation.
CAUTION
Ultrasound can produce harmful effects in tissue and
potentially result in patient injury. Always minimize exposure
time and keep ultrasound levels low when there is no medical
benefit. Use the principle of ALARA (As Low As Reasonably
Achievable), increasing output only when needed to obtain
diagnostic image quality. Observe the acoustic output display
and be familiar with all controls affecting the output level. See
the
Bioeffects section
of the
Acoustic Output chapter
in the
Advanced Reference Manual
for more information.
CAUTION
Do not use with Defibrillator.
This equipment does not have a defibrillator approved applied
part.
