System Safety
Handling precautions
Ultrasound systems are highly sensitive medical instruments that can easily be damaged by improper
handling. Use care when handling and protect from damage when not in use. DO NOT use a damaged or
defective system. Failure to follow these precautions can result in serious injury and equipment damage.
Electrical shock hazard:
The system is driven with electrical energy that can injure the patient or user if live internal parts are
contacted by conductive solution:

DO NOT immerse the system and the system connector into any liquid.

Prior to each use, visually inspect the system lens for cracks, cuts, tears, and other signs of physical
damage. DO NOT use a system that appears to be damaged until you verify functional and safe
performance. You need to perform a more thorough inspection, including the cable, strain relief, and
connector, each time you clean the system.
Electrical leakage checks should be performed on a routine basis by CHISON Service or qualified hospital
personnel.
Mechanical hazard:
A defective system or excess force can cause patient injury or system damage:

Inspect systems for sharp edges or rough surfaces that may injure sensitive tissue.

DO NOT apply excessive force to the system connector when inserting into the system port.
Special handling instructions
Using protective sheaths
The use of market cleared system sheaths is recommended for clinical applications. Reference FDA March
29, 1991 "Medical Alert on Latex Products".
Protective sheaths may be required to minimize disease transmission. System sheaths are available for use
with all clinical situations where infection is a concern.
DO NOT use pre-lubricated condoms as a sheath. In some cases, they can damage the system. Lubricants
in these condoms may not be compatible with system construction.
Devices containing latex may cause severe allergic reaction in latex sensitive individuals. Refer to FDA’s
March 29, 1991 Medical Alert on latex products.
DO NOT use an expired system sheath. Before using a sheath, verify if it has expired.
