Probes and Biopsy 13-9
13.1.4 Wearing the Probe Sheath
A legally-marketed probe sheath must be installed over the probe before performing intra-cavitary
and intra-operative examinations. Protective barriers may be required to minimize disease
transmission. Probe sheaths are available for use in all clinical situations where infection is a
concern.
To order probe sheaths, contact:

CAUTION:
Be sure to cover the probe with a new (unused) probe sheath to
prevent infection during examination. If the probe sheath packaging is
open or broken, the probe sheath may not be sufficiently sterilized.
DO NOT use the probe sheath in such circumstances.
The cover contains natural rubber latex and talc that can cause
allergic reactions in some individuals.
DO NOT use an expired probe sheath. Before using, verify that the
probe sheath is within the expiration date.
Method (for reference only):
1. Place an appropriate amount of gel inside
the sheath or on the probe acoustic lens.
Poor imaging may result if no gel is used.
2. Insert the probe into the sheath. Be sure
to use a proper sterile technique. Pull the
cover tightly over the probe acoustic lens
to remove wrinkles and air bubbles, taking
care to avoid puncturing the sheath.
3. Secure the sheath with the enclosed
elastic bands.
4. Inspect the sheath to ensure there are no
holes or tears.
Refer to the following dimension table of all probes to choose the necessary probe sheath type.
