Site~Rite* 6 Ultrasound System
Warnings (continued)
Warning: Maximum shelf load on the VAD bedside roll stand is 22 lbs. Exceeding this weight may
damage the roll stand.
Warning: Do not overtighten screws when attaching the scanner to the roll stand mount. Doing so
may damage the scanner.
Warning: Use only screws provided in the packaging. Ensure the unit is secure against the roll
stand mount. Failure to do so may cause the scanner to disconnect from the roll stand.
Warning
: Do not use the probe with high frequency surgical equipment. Doing so may damage the
equipment.
Warning : Do not pull on the probe cable or overload the roll stand. Doing so may cause the system to
tip.
Warning : The keyboard tray and arm are designed to support the keyboard weight only. Additional
weight may cause the stand to tip.
Precautions
Caution:
The adverse biological effects of ultrasound on tissue appear to be threshold effects. When
tissue is repeatedly exposed to ultrasound, with intervals in between, there will likely be
no cumulative biological effect. If, however, a certain threshold has been passed,
biological effects may occur. While the Site~Rite* 6 Ultrasound System acoustic output
parameters fall well below all FDA thresholds for adverse biological effects, any given
ultrasound procedure should be performed using the principle of ALARA (As Low As
Reasonably Achievable). The licensed medical practitioner should limit the time of patient
exposure to ultrasonic radiation using the principle of ALARA.
Caution:
Federal (U.S.A.) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
Caution:
Do not pull the cable to disconnect the probe connector from the scanner. Pulling the
cable may damage the cable, cable connection or scanner.
Caution: Do not twist or bend the probe cable in excess of that required during normal use of the
probe. Excessive twisting or bending of the cable may cause failure, intermittent or
unpredictable operation.
Caution:
When disinfecting the probe with a liquid disinfectant, do not soak the probe cable,
cable bend relief, probe connector or probe buttons. Doing so may damage the probe.
Caution: Inspect the keyboard prior to each use. If damage is noted, do not use the keyboard.
