12-8 Probes and Biopsy
12.1.4 Wearing the Probe Sheath
A legally marketed probe sheath must be installed over the probe before performing
intra-cavitary and intra-operative examination. Protective barriers may be required to
minimize disease transmission. Probe sheaths are available for use with all clinical
situations where infection is a concern.
To order probe sheath, contact:

CAUTION:
1. Be sure to cover the probe with a new (unused) probe
sheath to prevent infection during examination. If the
package of a probe sheath is open or broken, the
sterilization of the probe sheath may not be sufficient. DO
NOT use such a probe sheath.
2. The cover contains natural rubber latex and talc that can
cause allergic reactions in some individuals.
3. DO NOT use an expired probe sheath. Before using probe
sheaths, verify whether the term of validity has expired.
Method (for reference only):
1. Place an appropriate amount of gel
inside the sheath or on probe face. Poor
imaging may result if no gel is used.
2. Insert the probe into the sheath; make
sure to use proper sterile technique.
Pull cover tightly over probe face to
remove wrinkles and air bubbles,
taking care to avoid puncturing cover.
3. Secure the sheath with enclosed elastic
bands.
4. Inspect the sheath to ensure there are
no holes or tears.
