3) The transducer is also used to receive reflected ultrasonic waves. The transducer vibrates mechanically due to the received ultrasonic waves and converts mechanical vibrations into electric energy. Electric signals are converted to shades of brightness by brightness modulation to obtain an image. Intended Use The Transvaginal Probe EUP‐VV731 is designed for observation and diagnosis mainly of the following regions by connecting with the HITACHI ultrasound scanner. Transvaginal Transrectal ... -

4. Cleaning and Disinfection The probe and accessory must be reprocessed after each use. Refer to the reprocessing instruction in this chapter. ‐ The probe is delivered unsterile. Prior to the first use, reprocess the probe. WARNINGS ‐ Temperature should not exceed 50°C during reprocessing. ‐ Probe connector is not water resistant. The probe is not completely submersible. The immersible part is Limitations on shown in Fig. 3. The un‐immersible part should be disinfected by wipe reprocessing disinfection. Sterilization is not possible for this probe. The probe should be packed in a sterile pouch or container to transport Transportation from Central Sterile Supply Department (CSSD) to an operating room. before using Be careful not to damage the sterile pouch or container during transportation. Levels of reprocessing requirements: Depending on the application of the product and with regard to risk evaluation, the user has to classify the medical device according to the current Medical Device Directive for processing of medical devices as uncritical, semi‐critical or critical. Supporting information concerning this topic is listed in the table below. The user is responsible for correct classification of the medical device. Classification Definition Processing Cleaning ... -
