Introduction
This chapter describes how to use the AlexTriVantage Laser system to treat patients.
Performing a Laser Treatment
Before You Begin
Perform the following tasks before you begin your laser treatment:
Cover the treatment room windows with an opaque material to prevent unintended
viewing.
Post a laser warning sign at each entrance to the laser treatment room.
Ensure that protective eyewear is available for everyone in the treatment room.
Proper eyewear must filter light at a wavelength of more than 755 nm with an O.D. of
7.0 or greater.
Plug the laser into the correct electrical outlet. Ensure that the power switch on the
rear panel is in the ON position.
To prevent the laser system from moving inadvertently, lock each front wheel.
Verify that the Handpieces and the Distance Gauge, which will be used during this
procedure, are clean.
Caution: Before starting up the laser system for any reason, the operator must
ensure that all personnel in the area are familiar with the safety concerns outlined in
“Warnings, Cautions, and Precautions” on page 1-5 , and that they are equipped
with the correct safety eyewear.
Caution: Before the laser system is turned on, a Handpiece must be installed on
the end of the optical fiber.
Warning: Always put the laser system into Standby or turn it off before
attempting to check, clean, and/or replace the Delivery System, Handpiece, or
Distance Gauge.
Warning: Always recalibrate the laser after fixing, cleaning, or replacing the
Delivery System, Handpiece, or Distance Gauge. Failure to initiate a
calibration after cleaning/replacing the Handpiece, Distance Gauge, or
Delivery System may result in the delivery of excessive laser energy.
