Caring for Transducers
WARNING:
To minimize the risk of cross-contamination and infectious diseases, clean and
high-level disinfect endocavity transducers after each use; clean and sterilize intraoperative
transducers after each use.
WARNING:
During neurosurgical procedures, if a transducer becomes contaminated with tissue
or fluids of a patient known to have Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease, the transducer should be
destroyed as it cannot be sterilized.
WARNING:
When using an endocavity or intraoperative transducer with a BF or CF type applied
part, the patient leakage currents may be additive.
WARNING:
Prior to each use, inspect the endocavity or intraoperative transducer for signs of
mechanical damage such as cracks, cuts, tears, perforations, or protrusions. Do not use the
transducer if the transducer appears damaged in any way. Any damage could cut the patient
and compromise the electrical safety of the transducer, causing possible patient or user injury.
Contact your local Siemens representative.
Caution:
Transducers are sensitive instruments — irreparable damage may occur if they are
dropped, knocked against other objects, cut, or punctured. Do not attempt to repair or alter any
part of a transducer, contact your local Siemens representative.
Caution:
To avoid cable damage, do not roll the ultrasound system over transducer cables.
Caution:
To avoid damage to the transducer, do not use transducer sheaths containing an
oil-based coating or petroleum- or mineral oil-based ultrasound coupling agents. Use only a
water-based ultrasound coupling agent.
Caution:
Follow all instructions provided by manufacturers of sterile goods (transducer sheaths)
to ensure proper handling, storage, and cycling of all sterile goods.
Take extreme care when handling or storing transducers. They must not be dropped, jarred, or
knocked against other objects. Do not allow transducers to come into contact with any
sharp-edged or pointed object.
