Transducer Controls and Inspection Rotation Control Figure 3-1 P7-3T/P7-3TE Figure 3-2 P8-2Ts/P8-2TU Figure 3-3 XP8-2TU For orientation purposes, the user may choose to start scanning in one of the transverse planes, for instance the standard monoplane indicated as 0°on the system monitor. After rotating the scanplane 90°, scanning occurs in the longitudinal plane, sweeping through two opposite quadrants of the cone. When the scanplane rotates 90°further in the same direction, scanning occurs in the mirror image of the first transverse plane. The only two planes that are equivalent are the two transverse planes; one being the mirror image of the other. As shown in figure below, a 180°rotation of the scanplane fills all four quadrants of the conic imaging volume. The direction of the tip of the endoscope is easily steered using the deflection control wheels on the handle of the instrument to allow exact positioning of the transducer in the esophagus.

The actual scanplane angle is indicated by a marker, and the value is also displayed as shown in figure below. The scanplane angle ranges from 0°to 180°.
Confirm the image on the screen changes in relation to the numbers on the scanplane indicator. – While pressing the motor control push-buttons (not available for P8-3Ts and XP8- 2TU), the transducer motor should be running as the image is changing. – For P8-3Ts: use the scanplane rotation wheel to control the rotation. – For XP8-2TU: use the control push-buttons to control the rotation. Connecting and Disconnecting the Transducer TEE transducer should be used only with Mindray compatible ultrasonic diagnostic systems. NOTE: ● Before connecting or disconnecting a transducer, freeze or turn off the ultrasonic diagnostic system, otherwise the ultrasonic diagnostic system or the transducer may malfunction. ● Place the cable properly to avoid being treaded or wrapping with other devices. DO NOT allow the transducer head to hang free.

After freezing or turning off the ultrasonic diagnostic system, toggle the locking lever to the unlock position to unlock the connector of the probe. Pull the probe connector straight out as shown in the figure below. Electrical Safety The electrical leakage current test should be performed on the TEE transducer after taking it out of the box and prior to each exam, alternatively, if the bite-guard inspection test is done prior to each exam, then the electrical leakage current test should be done yearly at a minimum. 3.3.1 Electrical Leakage Current Test Mindray ultrasound systems with accessories are designed to meet the requirements for patient safety described in IEC 60601-1 Medical Electrical Equipment-Part 1. General Requirements for Safety. To maintain patient safety it is important to have a low electrical leakage current in the product. The endoscope shaft has no electrically conducting surfaces, and is covered with a layer of material, which permits neither fluids nor electricity to pass through it. Electrical safety is maintained for the transducer by keeping this material intact. Each TEE transducer is tested for electrical isolation and leakage current before it is shipped to a customer. WARNING ● To avoid injury to the patient, do not use the transducer if the insulating material has been punctured or otherwise compromised.
§19 must be performed once a year, or as required by local regulation. The leakage limits associated with Type BF Applied Part must be met. The test requires access to the ultrasound system and to standardized test equipment. The transducer has to be immersed in a Normal Saline solution (50g NaCl per liter water) to above the 40 cm mark (but below the handle). Mindray recommends keeping a written log of the results. 3.3.2 Bite-hole Inspection Test Bite-holes or other damages of the endoscope surface can alternatively be detected by a simplified test without the access to the ultrasound system, by using the following procedure. The objective of this test is to detect bite-holes. It is safe and easy to perform,...
Maintaining a safe thermal environment for the patient has been a design priority at Mindray. It is generally agreed that to avoid damage to body tissues, for long term exposures, tissue contact transducer tip temperatures should be less than 43°C. The...
42 °C (107.6 °F). At 42 °C (107.6 °F) or higher, the exposure time of the P7-3T/P7-3Ts/P7-3TE/P7-3TU/P8-2Ts/P8-2TU/P8-3Ts/ XP8-2TU probe for adult applications should be limited to 10 minutes or less. There is no sufficient data to prove the thermal tolerance of the esophagus in neonate and pediatric patients, but it is apparently these patients are more vulnerable than adults.
Transducer Controls and Inspection At least 10 cm of the distal end must be submerged. Observe the temperature indicated on the system monitor. Wait until the temperature display is stabilized at 41°±0.5°C plus/minus any water bath temperature deviation. Observe that the Warning pop-up window is displayed. If both steps 6 and 7 are passed the temperature shutdown works as stated. If not, Contact Mindray or your local representative. Cleaning and Disinfecting the Transducer For cleaning and disinfecting the transducer, see "5 Cleaning and Disinfection". WARNING If you don’t clean and disinfect the transducer, it may become a source of infection. Checking after Turning ON the System CAUTION ● If you keep a hot acoustic lens on the body surface, the patient may be burned.
To avoid injury to the patient, if during the deflection test, a sharp “U-turn” of the transducer tip is observed (the transducer tip angle exceeds the maximum deflection angles), do not use the transducer. Call Mindray or your local representative.
Examination CAUTION Only use water-soluble acoustic coupling gel. Other coupling gels containing ingredients like ethanol, mineral oil, Iodine, lotions, lanolin, aloe vera or methyl or ethyl parabenzoic acid can cause transducer damage. 4.2.2 Sheath For patient protection, a sterile, single-use, latex sheath can be used over the transducer before performing examination. Use a commercially available transducer sheath. If used, place the latex sheath over the transducer and gastroscope shaft up to but not covering the handle. Rub the tip carefully to ensure that all air bubbles have been removed from the transducer’s acoustic window area. In addition to the gel on the acoustic window, apply a sufficient amount of acoustic coupling gel on the outside of the sheath at the tip of...

To fax orders call: 1-319-656-4451 For details, please contact your local Mindray representative for assistance. Examination The operator should adopt proper ultrasonic scanning procedures and methods according to different target organs. NOTE: It is required to practice ALARA when operating ultrasonic diagnostic system. 4.3.1 Cautions The actual techniques for introduction of the TEE transducer into the patient are beyond the scope of the user guide. There are numerous medical texts and articles which thoroughly address this topic. Observe the following precautionary measures when conducting an exam.
Examination • In consideration of the above 2 points, the user should freeze the image, which turns the power to the transducer off, and allow the endoscope deflection controls to be disengaged whenever active scanning is not desired. • Proper patient preparation is essential for successful examinations. This includes restrictions on food and liquid intake as well as a thorough explanation of the examination procedure and other instructions as the particular situation warrants.
Examination CAUTION To avoid damaging the transducer, do not deflect the distal tip of the transducer by direct application of force. Use the deflection wheels for this task. 4.3.3 Emergency Retraction If the transducer tip should get jammed in a deflected position inside the patient, and all attempts to release the deflected tip should fail, follow the following procedure to assure a safe retraction of the transducer. Disconnect the transducer from the ultrasound system. At an accessible location between the transducer handle and the patient, cut the entire endoscope shaft, including all internal wiring, using heavy duty cutting pliers or another suitable tool. The deflection mechanism is now released and the transducer may be safely retracted. After Examinations After the examination is completed, turn OFF the ultrasonic diagnostic system, remove the bite-guard and disconnect the transducer, and then clean and disinfect the transducer.
After disinfection, rinse the transducer thoroughly with clean water to remove all chemical residues. Chemical residues on the transducer may be harmful to the human body. ● The efficacy of disinfectants solutions is not guaranteed by MINDRAY. Contact the manufacturers for information on the activity of the products. NOTE: ●...
Or follow the rinsing method specified by the cleaner manufacturer. Use moistened soft cloth to wipe the residual cleaners on the handle, cable, and connector. Dry the probe with a disposable lint-free soft cloth or tissue. Do not dry the probe by heating. Inspect the probe. If visible dirt still exists, repeat the preceding steps to wash the probe until it is all clean. Disinfections Only the following disinfectants are recommended by Mindray to disinfect the TEE transducers. For the biological effectiveness and the correct use of the disinfectants, see the information of the disinfectants’ manufacturer. 5.3.1 Compatible Disinfectants Applicable Disinfectant...
