Page 33: Scanning A Patient
SCANNING A PATIENT Verathon advises new operators to use the BladderScan BVI 3000 on patients with moderately full bladders, ® rather than initially attempting to locate nearly empty bladders. An in‑service training video has been supplied with your instrument. It is recommended that you view the video as a supplement to the procedures provided in this manual. - Page 34 8. Place an ample amount of gel midline on the patient’s abdomen approximately 1 inch (3 cm) above the symphysis pubis. Note: Do not spread the gel over the patient's abdomen, and use a sufficiently thick quantity to ensure proper transmission of ultrasound waves. 9.

Page 35: Procedure 2. Verify Aim & Accuracy
PROCEDURE 2. VERIFY AIM & ACCURACY After completing a scan, the BVI 3000 displays two volumes on the Aiming screen: the largest volume measured and the current volume. The light area inside the target‑shaped Aiming icon represents the position of the bladder relative to the scanhead. - Page 36 3. If you need to adjust your aim, do the following: • Press the X button. This clears the inaccurate scan results. Note: If your instrument does not have an X button, press the DONE button and then press the SCAN button.

Need help?
Do you have a question about the BVI 3000 and is the answer not in the manual?
Questions and answers
How do I change the calibration due date? Unit is no longer supported by company. Service manual says to send it in for annual calibration. Company does not do this anymore.
The calibration due date for the BladderScan BVI 3000 cannot be changed manually. If the calibration due date has passed, the message "Calibration Due" will appear every time the instrument is turned on. To remove this message and ensure accurate measurement performance, the device must be calibrated by an authorized Verathon Service Center.
