A legally marketed probe sheath must be installed over the probe before performing intra-cavitary
and intra-operative examination. Protective barriers may be required to minimize disease
transmission. Probe sheaths are available for use with all clinical situations where infection is a
concern.

Perform the following procedure to install the probe sheath:
1.
Place an appropriate amount of gel inside the sheath or on the probe acoustic lens. Poor
imaging may result if no gel is used.
2.
Insert the probe into the sheath; make sure to use proper sterile technique. Pull cover tightly
over probe acoustic lens to remove wrinkles and air bubbles, and taking care to avoid
puncturing the sheath.
3.
Secure the sheath with the enclosed elastic bands.
4.
Inspect the sheath to ensure there is no hole or tear.
