Cleaning and Disinfection
After completing each examination, clean and disinfect (or sterilize) the probes as
required. When biopsy procedures have been performed, be sure to sterilize the needle-
guided bracket. Fail to do so may result in the probe and the needle-guided bracket to
becoming sources of infection. Please follow the instructions in the manual for cleaning.
WARNING:
Never immerse the probe connector into liquid such as
water or disinfectant. Immersion may cause electrical shock
or malfunction.
CAUTION:
1. When performing cleaning and
disinfection of the probe to prevent
infection, wear sterile gloves.
2. After disinfection, rinse the probe thoroughly with sterile
water to remove all chemical residues. Chemical residues
on the probe may be harmful to the human body.
3 No cleaning and disinfecting may result in the probe
becoming a source of infection.
NOTE: 1. After the examination, wipe off the ultrasound gel thoroughly. Otherwise,
the ultrasound gel may solidify and degrade the image quality of the
transducer.
2. DO NOT make the probe to become overheated (more than 55°C) during
cleaning and disinfections. High temperature may cause the probe to
become deformed or damaged.
5.1 Cleaning
Please refer to the instructions in the manual and follow your hospital policy and
procedures for cleaning.
1. Disconnect the probe from the system.
2. Wear sterile gloves to prevent infection.
3. Wash the transducer with clean water or soapy water to remove all the foreign
matters, or, wipe the transducer with a soft ethyl carbamate sponge. Avoid using a
brush, because it may damage the transducer.
4. Dry the transducer using a sterile cloth or gauze after rinsing. Do not dry the
transducer by heating it.
