Instruments Instruction Manual
General Warnings
A warning statement in this manual identifies a condition or practice which, if not corrected or discontinued immediately, could lead to patient injury, illness, or death.
CAUTION: Because prolonged intense light exposure can damage the retina, the use of the device for ocular examination should not be unnecessarily prolonged, and the brightness setting should not exceed what is needed to provide clear visualisation of the target structures.
The retinal exposure dose for a photo chemical hazard is a product of the radiance and the exposure time. If the value of radiance were reduced in half, twice the time would be needed to reach the maximum exposure limit.
While no acute optical radiation hazards have been identified for direct or
indirect ophthalmoscopes, it is recommended that the intensity of light
directed into the patient’s eye be limited to the minimum level which is
necessary for diagnosis.
Infants, aphakes, and persons with diseased eyes will be at greater risk. The
risk may also be increased if the person being examined has had any exposure
with the same instrument or any other ophthalmic instrument using a visible
light source during the previous 24 hours. This will apply particularly if the
eye has been exposed to retinal photography.
CAUTION: Do not immerse the battery handle in liquid. Consult the cleaning and disinfection instructions for each part for further information about cleaning and disinfecting this product. Never clean or disinfect any device with batteries in it.
CAUTION: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician or licensed healthcare practitioner.
CAUTION: Turn off instrument when not in use. Avoid powering on without an instrument head attached. When storing this device for extended periods of time, remove the batteries.
WARNING : The carrying cases provided with these devices are intended for long-term storage or transport between facilities or when shipping devices to and from ADC’s facility for repair or servicing. Carry cases (including internal liners) cannot be cleaned or disinfected and should be safely discarded if contaminated. Do not carry the case into a contaminated environment.
WARNING: When replacing lamp, allow lamp to cool for five minutes before handling.
WARNING: Only the approved sterilization method included in this IFU has been validated for this device or its corresponding components. Any other sterilisation method may compromise the safety and effectiveness of this device. (This includes steam sterilization.)
WARNING: Do not place devices or accessories back into carrying case after use on a patient without first cleaning/disinfecting the device/accessories as described in the cleaning and disinfection section of this manual.
WARNING : Use of any accessories or materials not indicated in the user’s manual can degrade the minimum safety of the equipment.
WARNING : Only replace listed accessories (attachments), lamps, or batteries for the device.
WARNING: During use metal components near instrument head can become warm. This is especially true if device is on for extended periods of time. Do not leave device on when not in use.
WARNING: The light emitted from this instrument is potentially hazardous. The longer the duration of exposure, the greater the risk of ocular damage. Exposure to light from this instrument, when operated at maximum intensity, will exceed the safety guideline after 3 minutes and 47 seconds. Exposure times are cumulative for a 24 hour period.
Scopes Parts and Assembly
The pocket Scopes consists of a AA battery handle (5160N), microfiber Scopes instrument head (5120N series) with attached movable viewing lens, and disposable speculate (2.75mm and 4.25mm).
Removing and Attaching the Instrument Head
Pocket Scopes heads are threaded and can be removed by rotating the threaded connection counterclockwise, or attached by rotating the threaded connection clockwise.
Viewing Lens
To move during an examination, turn the lens bezel clockwise to lift up. To reposition, reverse procedure.
Attaching the Disposable Speculate
Push the flanges end of the desired speculate onto the stainless socket and twist clockwise to engage. Reverse procedure to remove and discard after each use.”
NOTE: Scopes must be used with speculate.
Pneumatic Scopes
To perform, insert tapered end of insulator fitting (5121N, sold separately), into hole on side of Scopes head. Attach optional bulb assembly (5122N, sold separately).
Ophthalmologist Parts and Assembly
The pocket ophthalmologist consists of AA battery handle (5160N) and ophthalmologist instrument head (5140N Series).
Aperture Selection
This unit is equipped with 5 internal apertures: small, large, semi-circle, red-free, and fixation. To select, rotate the aperture selection wheel at the front of the instrument head.
Corrective Lens Selection
This unit is equipped with 19 corrective lenses from +20 to -20 adopters (negative lenses in red). To select, rotate the corrective lens selection wheel at either side of the instrument head. Selected lenses can be viewed in the lighted panel on practitioner side of instrument.
Turning Instrument On
To illuminate, slide the on/off switch located on the battery handle pocket clip away from the instrument head. Slide the switch in the opposite direction to turn off.
Replacing Lamp
Remove the instrument head by turning counterclockwise. Grab end of lamp from inside base of instrument head and remove. Replace with new lamp, taking care not to touch the glass, and align lamp metal guides on side of lamp with grooves in lamp socket (xenon ophthalmologist heads only).
NOTE : Allow lamp to cool for five minutes before handling if device has been recently used.
Lamp Replacement Part Numbers
Lamp Type | Scopes | Ophthalmologist |
---|---|---|
Xenon | 5111N-4 | 5112N-4 |
LED | 5120NL* | 5112NL-4 |
*NOTE : Scopes LED lamp cannot be replaced, must order new head with lamp.
Battery Replacement
This unit requires 2 AA batteries. For best performance, we suggest alkaline
batteries. To replace, remove the battery cap at the base of the handle by
turning counterclockwise and replace batteries, taking care to observe
correct polarity.
NOTE: This instrument should be turned off when not in use. If storing for extended lengths of time, remove batteries completely.
Handle Care and Maintenance
Periodically check the condition of both the batteries, making sure there is no sign of corrosion or oxidation. Always replace both batteries. Alkaline batteries are recommended. Remove batteries from handle if instrument will not be used for an extended period of time.
Cleaning and Disinfection
Basic Cleaning Procedure for Battery Handles, Scopes and Ophthalmologist Heads.
To clean the exterior of the device, prepare a 70% is o propyl alcohol solution and soak a lint-free cloth. Wipe down the exterior of the ophthalmologist head and handle, cleaning all external surface areas. Care should be taken to prevent excess liquid from seeping into the components.
Propyl alcohol may be substituted with commonly used, EPA-registered hospital disinfectant wipes for cleaning purposes if desired. Please refer to the directions provided by the manufacturer of the wipes for appropriate instructions for use to ensure effective contact time between the wipe and the device.
It is important to note that solution residue on the magnifying lenses may decrease device performance. All excess cleaning fluids must be carefully wiped clean if these surfaces are cleaned. The lenses of the instrument head may be cleaned with a lint-free cloth or lens paper.
Steris Sterilization Processes
This product has been validated with the V-PRO 1 Standard Cycle; V-PRO 1 Plus Lumen and Non Lumen Cycles; V-PRO maX Lumen, Non Lumen, and Flexible Cycles; V-PRO 60 Lumen and Non Lumen Cycles using the V-PRO 60 Low Temperature Sterilisation System with VAPPROX HC Steriliser and V-PRO maX Low Temperature Sterilisation System.
Disposable Speculate Cleaning/Disinfection Instructions
Disposable speculate should not be cleaned or disinfected in any way. Disposable specula are single-patient use only and must be discarded after use. Disposable specula should not be used if they appear to be visibly contaminated or have accidentally come into contact with contaminated materials prior to use.
