Ultrasound Transducer Cover
Vitrolife Sweden AB · Model 14221
Ultrasound Transducer Cover
Intended use: A sheath intended to be used as a physical barrier for protection against the effects of environmental exposure (e.g., body fluids, gliding creams) and/or to maintain the required hygienic level of an ultrasound imaging system transducer (probe) used in natural body orifices (e.g., vagina, rectum, oesophagus) during an ultrasound examination; it has no additional functionality. This is a single-use device.
Key tips
- ·Never bypass a radiation interlock to "just get the image" - this is one of the few true zero-tolerance rules in BMET work.
- ·Trend image-quality phantom results over time - drift shows up before an outright failure does.
- ·Portable/mobile units take real physical abuse from transport - check wheel locks and cable strain reliefs more often than fixed units.
