Ultrasound Safety” publication. This publication is available as a PDF link in the Butterfly iQ™ App. • If Butterfly iQ™ is contaminated due to exposure to Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, there is no ade- quate disinfecting procedure. • Use the correct clinical application presets for the associated body part being examined. Some applications require lower acoustic output limits.
Doing so may result in injury to the patient or operator. • Do not use the Butterfly iQ™ Application on a mobile device that does not meet minimum re- quirements. Using the Butterfly iQ™ Application on a mobile device that does not meet the mini- mum requirements may affect performance and image quality, possibly resulting in misdiagno- sis.

Butterfly iQ™ App, and charging the probe for use. Downloading and Installing the App You can download and install the Butterfly iQ™ App by visiting the Apple App Store or Google Play Store on your mobile device. Once in the App Store, search for "Butterfly iQ".
Charging the Probe Charging the Probe WARNINGS! • Use only cables, probes, chargers and accessories specified for use with Butterfly iQ™. Substi- tution of non-approved accessories may cause the system to perform improperly or cause injury to the patient or operator.
Page 21
Charging the Probe NOTE • The latest Butterfly iQ™ charger has a matte black finish. If you have a previous model please visit support.butterflynetwork.com for additional information on charging your probe. • Your exact charging pad may vary. • Butterfly iQ™ uses a wireless charging system. Do not attempt to insert your probe’s cable into the charging pad.
2. If the first button flashes, it indicates that the probe battery charge is too low to perform the study. To check the probe battery level using the Butterfly iQ™ App: • The probe battery status is displayed in the upper portion of the imaging screen.
Using the System 5. Using the System This chapter provides information and instructions for using Butterfly iQ™ to begin and end studies. It also provides information and instructions for freezing and unfreezing during live imaging, for performing measurements, and other imaging tools.
Uploading to Butterfly Cloud Uploading to Butterfly Cloud NOTE Depending on your platform, hardware, country and membership type, certain presets, modes and features may not be available. To archive a study: 1. When you finish capturing ultrasound images, tap the Capture Reel in the upper right corner of the screen. The Study screen is displayed.
Using Modes 6. Using Modes This chapter provides information and instructions for using modes when performing an ultrasound study. NOTE Advanced imaging capabilities may vary depending on the selected preset and status of paid sub- scription. Please visit support.butterflynetwork.com for the latest details on which preset has ac- cess to which modes.

Using Spectral Pulsed-Wave Doppler Mode • Adjust gain of spectral trace by dragging finger left and right on the trace while trace is live. • Adjust the Scale to optimize for high or low flow by touching the Low Flow/High Flow control in the middle of the screen.
Page 27
Using Spectral Pulsed-Wave Doppler Mode NOTE Annotations and measurements may only be added to the Spectral trace region. Velocity measurements will be represented in cm/s as Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV), the absolute value of the vertical distance from the baseline first caliper dot, and End Diastolic Velocity (EDV), the absolute value of the vertical distance from the baseline of the second caliper dot.
Annotations 7. Annotations This chapter provides information and instructions for performing annotations on images in the Butterfly iQ™ App. Annotations can include linear measurements, ellipse measurements, and text annotations. Adding Annotations You can add annotations on any frozen image or images and clips in the capture reel.
Multiple calculation tools are available on the Butterfly iQ™ device depending on your membership status and geo- graphical location. The Butterfly iQ™ App helps you collect inputs to a calculation and process those inputs into clin- ically relevant outputs. When the calculation tool is initialized, the report may be viewed at any time by swiping up from the bottom of the screen.
The Auto Bladder Volume tool allows you to calculate bladder volume when capturing scans and visualize the blad- der in 3D. • The Butterfly iQ™ has the capability to acquire a 3D sweep while you hold the probe steady. A volume estimate is then calculated from this 3D sweep.
Butterfly Cloud is a web-based application that allows users to upload and review ultrasound exams from the Butter- fly iQ™ App. Users of the cloud can also document, bill and integrate Butterfly iQ™ into existing hospital systems PACS, VNA, EMR, and Modality Worklist. Butterfly Cloud also supports the acceptance of images from third-party ultrasound devices.
11. Using Butterfly TeleGuidance This chapter provides information regarding Butterfly TeleGuidance. The service enables users to call one of your available connections through your Butterfly iQ App for remote collaboration while scanning. WARNING! TeleGuidance is adjunctive and should not be solely relied upon to diagnose or treat COVID-19.
Maintenance 12. Maintenance This chapter provides information and instructions for storing, transporting, cleaning, and disinfecting the probe. Maintaining the Probe Storing and Transport: CAUTIONS! • Avoid storing the probe where the probe or its cable could be easily damaged. • Avoid transporting the probe unless it is well supported and secured. Secure the cable tightly to the probe when transporting it or carrying it.

Table 6, “Environmental Operating Conditions” [42] lists the environmental conditions for the Butterfly iQ™ probe only. For details on the mobile device on which you run the Butterfly iQ™ App, refer to the accompanying documen- tation for your mobile device.
RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Butterfly iQ™ Ultrasound System is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Butterfly iQ™ Ultrasound System should be observed to verify normal operation.
Separation Distances Devices such as cellular/mobile phones, radio transmitters, and transceivers transmit radio waves (RF), which can create disturbances. The Butterfly iQ™ is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. If radiated and conducted electromagnetic disturbances are observed and performance is affected, the user or cus- tomer should take measures to mitigate, including relocation or reorientation of the system.
