Page 13: Endorectal Scanning
You must use a water standoff system to scan the rectum from the anorectal junction and beyond. BK Medical recommends using a rectosigmoidoscope when attempting to scan proximally in the rectum (approximately 10cm or more from the anal verge). A water standoff system with the following components is available: •... - Page 14 To prepare the water standoff system: Place the two O-rings in the outer grooves as shown in this picture. The water outlet is just above the inner groove. Do NOT block this Place the O-rings in these two grooves Luer Lock valve (water inlet) Use a little water to moisten the silicone O-rings inside the water standoff collar.
- Page 15 wire clip 2-3 silicone rubber bands in each of the two grooves Secure the water standoff condom in place with 2 or more silicone rubber bands in each groove (silicone rubber bands are supplied with water standoff condoms UA0037). Fill the syringe with degassed water. Use the 2-way stopcock and plastic extension tube to attach the syringe to the Luer lock valve on the water standoff collar.

Page 16: Using A Rectosigmoidoscope And Scanning
The transducer is designed to pass through Rectosigmoidoscope UA0672, Rectosigmoidoscope UA0673 or single-use Rectosigmoidoscope UA0681. Caution: If you use a rectosigmoidoscope that you do not purchase from BK Medical, it must be fully cylindrical and have an inner diameter of at least 21 mm. - Page 17 Using a rectosigmoidoscope Insert the obturator fully into the rectosigmoidoscope and apply gel to the outside tip. Introduce the rectosigmoidoscope as far as the beginning of the rectal ampulla (4–5 cm). WARNING Do not use excessive force during insertion. Do not make excessive lateral movements during or after insertion.
- Page 18 Inserting the transducer and water standoff system Make sure that the entire outer surface of the water standoff condom is thoroughly lubricated with a glycerine-based lubricant. Insert the transducer just until the tip of the transducer is at the far end of the rectosigmoidoscope.
