5.3.3
Freeze Cycle
Selecting the type of treatment, Manual or Automatic, is discussed in section 5.3.4.1 and
5.3.4.2.
Warning
Portions of the cryoprobe other than the freeze zone, including the plastic
cover that is located near the cryoprobe handle, may become cold and cause
tissue damage. If unwanted freezing occurs, immediately stop the freezing
process.
To prevent injury, cryoprobes must be closely observed during use for signs
of unwanted freezing.
Warning
You must NOT allow the freeze process to start before the cryoprobe active
area is actually within the target tissue.
The practitioner can hold the cryohandle for the duration of the cryoablation procedure
or use a hose support device.
5.3.4
Pause Option:
Pause option is available at any freeze cycle, in Manual or in Automatic mode. The use of
the button is according to clinical judgment (for re-positioning the probe in the tissue or
injecting saline, for example). Using the pause option should be as minimal as possible.
While using the PAUSE button, freezing mode is disabled, and therefore, is not calculated
in the total freezing cycle time.
