Stryker L10 AIM
Stryker · Model L10 AIM
Light Source The LED light source provides real-time endoscopic visibility and near-infrared fluorescence imaging. Enables surgeon to perform minimally invasive surgery using standard endoscopic visible light as well as visual assessment of vessels, blood flow, related tissue perfusion and biliary anatomy near-infrared imaging.
Key tips
- ·A failed leak test means the scope does not get reprocessed or used - send it for repair, full stop.
- ·A shortened reprocessing cycle is a real infection-control failure, not a minor deviation - follow AAMI ST91 exactly.
- ·Track light-source lamp-hours against the manufacturer's limit rather than running to failure.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
No or dim illumination / lamp fault
HighSymptoms: No light output, dim or flickering light, lamp-hours alarm, colour shift.
Root cause: Xenon / LED lamp at end of life, a lamp power supply fault, or a light-cable fault.
Poor video image
HighSymptoms: Noisy, dark, discoloured or out-of-focus image, dropouts, no image.
Root cause: Camera head / coupler fault, a camera-cable fault, or a CCU / video-processor fault.
White-balance / colour fault
MediumSymptoms: Cannot white-balance, persistent colour cast.
Root cause: Camera head sensor drift, a dirty coupler, or the light source colour temperature.
Overheating / fan fault
LowSymptoms: Thermal shutdown, loud fan, hot exhaust.
Root cause: Failed or clogged cooling fan.
Output / connector fault
LowSymptoms: Signal only on one output, connector damage, HD/SDI dropout.
Root cause: Worn video output connector or an output board fault.

PM Checklist
Preventive-maintenance tasks typical of this equipment class. Perform to the manufacturer's procedure and your facility's policy - this is general reference, not a schedule for this specific unit.
- ·Leak testing before each reprocessing cycle
- ·Scope reprocessing per AAMI ST91
- ·Light source lamp-hour tracking
- ·Annual full PM
Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: Fails the leak test
- Repeat the leak test, watching where the bubbles originate (bending section, insertion tube, channel ports).
- Confirm the leak tester / connector itself holds pressure.
- Quarantine the scope immediately - do not reprocess a leaking scope in fluid.
- Send it for channel / bending-section repair.
- Re-leak-test and re-image after repair before returning to service.
Symptom: Poor or lost image
- Confirm the processor, light source and monitor with a known-good scope.
- Inspect the distal lens for scratches, chips or adhesive fog.
- Check for fluid droplets behind the lens (fluid invasion).
- White-balance and check all channels.
- Send for image-bundle / CCD repair if the fault is in the scope.
Symptom: Angulation loose / will not hold / limited range
- Check the angulation locks / brakes.
- Assess up/down and left/right range against a new scope of the same model.
- Do not force a tight bending section.
- Send for angulation-wire / brake service.
- Re-check range and image after repair.
Symptom: Poor suction / no air-water / channel blockage
- Fit fresh air/water and suction valves and confirm they seat.
- Flush and brush all channels; confirm a cleaning brush passes.
- Check the light-source air pump and the water bottle seal / pressure.
- Inspect for a crushed or kinked channel.
- Send for channel repair if a channel will not clear.
