Behavior in case of a system error
In case of any failure in the power generation of the laser, the power which is
delivered to the patient decreases. Overpower cannot occur, as the current for
the laser tube is limited. Less power than expected results in less effect.
When this occurs, the user can check for the beam delivery first and then for
the laser. Any damage to the delivery system results in a decrease of the
power. A broken waveguide can show a color change at the outside of the
waveguide as a result of the heat generated by absorption on the inside. A
disalignment in the articulated arm leads to an aiming beam delivery which is
non more centered at the end of the arm (note: already small changes not
clearly visible can lead to a decrease in power). The user should not continue
the use of the laser and contact his local A.R.C. Laser representative.
When he checks the laser a restart results in a new check of the system at the
beginning. When the laser measures to low or to high power, the system does
not start. Any error message displayed by the system can be checked in the
manual. In case of any insecurity or questions please contact your local A.R.C.
Laser representative.
Treatment related issues
Discomfort from the heating which is generated by the laser may occur. To
avoid this, the user should follow the application parameter guidelines and
avoid too long application times. If possible, cooling can reduce patients dis-
comfort after the treatment. All personal, including the patient have to wear
eye protection goggles, this may lead to de-
creased vision regarding contrast and color by
the personal and surgeon.
In case of any eye injury due to disregard of the
eye protection by safety goggles, a clinical cen-
ter specialized on eye care has to be consulted.
