Clean probe holders. (they may need to be soaked to remove excess gel).
Thoroughly check the Ultrasound system probe connectors and remove
dust from inside the connector sockets if necessary. Visually check for
bent, damaged or missing pins.
Verify that the Ultrasound system properly recognizes all probes.
The Ultrasound system user manuals and various probe
handling cards provide a complete description of probe care,
maintenance, cleaning and disinfection. Ensure that you are
completely familiar with the proper care of GE probes.
Ultrasound probes can be easily damaged by improper
handling. See the User Manual and probe care cards for more
details. Failure to follow these precautions can result in serious
injury and equipment damage. Failure to properly handle or
maintain a probe may also void its warranty.
Any evidence of wear indicates the probe cannot be used.
Do a visual check of the probe pins and Ultrasound system
sockets before plugging in a probe.
The Interoperative probes often have special considerations and
individual probe user manuals. For Interoperative probes also
