CAUTION
We recommend use of only those peripheral products specified in this
manual to avoid adverse outcomes such as electric shock when this
product is used in combination with other devices.
Prevent patient’s body from touching electric conductor such as metal
part of bed while using an electrosurgical instrument and an accessory
instrument. Not doing so could cause thermal injury to a patient.
Do not energize the electrosurgical instruments when the electrically
active portion of diathermic treatment equipment and the metal part
at the distal end of the ultrasonic endoscope are in contact with each
other. Thermal injury or scope damage may occur.
Do not apply the current under the circumstance that patient’s clothing
is wet when using electrosurgical instruments. Doing so may cause
thermal injury.
Operate the instruments within specified output range as per the
device’s operating instructions. Leakage current may cause thermal
injury.
Perform electrosurgical procedures as per instructions provided in the
operation manual for an electrosurgical instrument.
When using diathermic treatment equipment, maintain enough distance
between the distal end of the ultrasonic endoscope and the tip of the
treatment equipment. Energize the high-frequency power supply after
bringing the tip of the treatment equipment into the field of view. Set
the output power of the high-frequency power supply and treatment
equipment below the rated output. Also, set the output power to the
minimum within the required range. If the output power is inappropriate,
it may cause damage to tissues in the body cavity, thermal injury,
bleeding or perforation.
