CAUTIONS

Considering the current concern for possible unknown hazards, and despite the extremely
low output intensities used in ultrasound biometry, QUANTEL MEDICAL recommends that
patient exposure time during measurement be minimized.

To preserve the finish of the case, avoid the use of abrasive cleaners. If possible, clean spots
before they dry.

Do not install Non QUANTEL MEDICAL software onto the device, as it may compromise the
ABSOLU software. Installing non-QUANTEL MEDICAL software will cause the warranty to be
void. QUANTEL MEDICAL is not responsible for any errors caused by adding programs to the
computer’s hard drive.

Do not connect the ABSOLU to the Internet: the ABSOLU does not have antivirus protection.
Connecting the unit to the INTERNET will cause the warranty to be void. QUANTEL MEDICAL is
not responsible for any errors caused by connecting the ABSOLU to the INTERNET.

The installation of an antivirus may use computer resources that are necessary to the normal
functioning of the ABSOLU device and thus reduce the system performances. The image
acquisition in real time by the ABSOLU system might be altered: risk of delays, saccades,
image interruption… It is up to the person who would install this type of software to set the
appropriate parameters and validate that the software does not disrupt the normal
functioning of the ABSOLU system (especially concerning the image acquisition).
3.3. Probes: warnings and cautions
WARNINGS

If you notice a change in the probe efficiency or have any doubt about the probe integrity:
contact QUANTEL MEDICAL Service Department or your local distributor.

The probes must be cleaned to prevent cross contamination. QUANTEL MEDICAL recommends
a cleaning procedure:
o
For the biometry 15MHz and 20-5AMHz probes: refer to:
ABSOLU User Manual: I- Regulatory and safety information
Section 2.3: How to prevent a transfer of infection
o
For the LIN 50 probes: refer to the documentation provided with the linear probe case:
Procedure for Linear 50MHz probes:
Preparation - Cleaning and disinfection - Usability
(Documentation code XE_LIN50_NI_ANFR)

15MHz, B20-5AMHz and 50MHz probes should regularly be checked at least once a week:
o
Check the probe body and cord aspect to detect any damage that may alter the probe’s
performance.
o
Concerning LIN 50 probes, if any air bubble is detected: fill in the probe with distilled
water.

Systematically check the probe calibration if it used for sizing.
CAUTIONS

The probes should never be autoclaved or subjected to excessive heat.

The probes are fragile and must be handled with care. They will be damaged if dropped onto
a hard surface.

The Lin 50 MHz probe transducer is very fragile: do not touch it!

Do not use any abrasive cleaning products or solvents that may alter the probe’s body
aspect. If possible, clean off stains immediately.
