8065751772 1.11WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS Many of these warnings are stated elsewhere in this manual; however, for easy reference they are repeated in greater detail here. If additional information is required, please contact your local Alcon service representative, or the Technical Services Department. There are no user serviceable components inside the Centurion® Vision System console or footswitch. Refer all service issues to your factory-trained Alcon service engineer.WARNINGS!The Centurion® Vision System battery can only be serviced by a factory-trained Alcon service engineer. Access by untrained personnel can lead to injury.A qualied technician must perform a visual inspection of the following components every twelve months: • Warning Labels (see section one of this manual) • Power Cord • FusesIn case of a deciency, do not use the system; call Alcon Technical Services.A qualied technician must check ground continuity and leakage current every twelve months to ensure they are within the limits of the applicable standards (for example: EN60601-1/IEC60601-1). Values must be recorded, and if they are above the limits of the applicable standards, or 50 % above initial measurement, do not use the system; call Alcon Technical Services.If the Centurion® Vision System is used at the 220 V - 240 V range in the United States or Canada, it should be used on a center-tapped, 240 V single phase circuit.Console isolation from mains is achieved through a two pole power switch. Turn OFF power switch or unplug the power cord from wall outlet to achieve isolation from mains.• Do not use the Centurion® Vision System near ammable anesthetics.Do not exceed maximum capacity of drain bag (500 ml). Excessive pressure can result from exceeding drain bag maximum capacity and potentially result in a hazardous condition for the patient.Inadvertent actuation of Prime or Tune while a handpiece is in the eye can create a hazardous condition that may result in patient injury.Keep clear of display base when raising display from stored position to prevent skin, hair, and /or clothing from being trapped at the base.The maximum allowable load on the instrument tray is 20 lb. (9 kg).Place the instrument tray in the stored position prior to transportation to avoid a situation that could cause the system to tip.Console might overbalance when it is pushed and its wheels are immobilized (blocked).Route the footswitch cable, power cord and any other cables connected to the Centurion® Vision System to avoid tripping.
1.12 8065751772WARNINGS!Appropriate use of Centurion® Vision System parameters and accessories is important for successful procedures. Use of low vacuum limits, low ow rates, low bottle heights, high power settings, extended power usage, power usage during occlusion conditions (beeping tones), failure to sufciently aspirate viscoelastic prior to using power, excessively tight incisions, and combinations of the above actions may result in signicant temperature increases at incision site and inside the eye, and lead to severe thermal eye tissue damage.Good clinical practice dictates testing for adequate irrigation, aspiration ow, reux, and operation as applicable for each handpiece prior to entering eye.Ensure that the tubings are not occluded during any phase of operation.If the handpiece test chamber is collapsed after tuning, there is a potential of low irrigation ow through the handpiece and may result in a uidic imbalance. This, in turn, may cause a shallowing or collapsing of the anterior chamber.Avoid setting the patient above the FMS unless PEL is used. Operating with the patient above the FMS without PEL adjustment will result in a lower irrigation pressure than indicated on the display, and possible underventing.Use of BSS® irrigating uid bags other than those approved by Alcon for use in the active uidics system can result in patient injury or system damage.Use of appropriate technique and settings is important to minimize fragments and turbulence.Do not remove the FMS during the surgical procedure.In the event of a system error release footswitch to the up position.Improper handling or removal of dual irrigation handpiece tip from eye may cause draining of the uidics system.CAUTIONS• Modication of the equipment is NOT allowed without prior authorization from the manufacturer. If this equipment is modied, appropriate inspection and testing must be conducted to ensure continued safe use of the equipment.• Avoid spilling BSS® irrigating solution, or moisture of any kind, around the electrical handpiece connectors.• Do not spray any liquid (i.e. cleaning solution or water) upward into the console vents.• Do not push or pull the unit by the display, the tray, or the IV pole. Wrapping around the rear and sides of the system is a handle provided for moving the instrument. The unit should be pulled and not pushed, especially over elevator and door thresholds.
8065751772 1.13 Handpiece Care Phaco handpieces are surgical instruments and must be handled with care. The handpiece tip should not touch any solid object while in operation. Immediately following surgery the handpiece must be thoroughly cleaned. Be sure handpiece connector is completely dry before connecting it to console. For cleaning and sterilization procedures, see the Directions for Use (DFU) supplied with the handpiece.WARNINGS!If in the medical opinion of the physician a patient with a prion related disease undergoes a high risk procedure, the instrument should be destroyed or be processed according to local requirements.Use of a phaco handpiece in the absence of irrigation ow and/or in the presence of reduced or lost aspiration ow and/or sideways orientation of the Kelman® and OZil® 1 2 tips can cause excessive heating and potential thermal injury to adjacent eye tissues.Appropriate use of Centurion® Vision System parameters and accessories is important for successful procedures. Use of low vacuum limits, low ow rates, low bottle heights, high power settings, extended power usage, power usage during occlusion conditions (beeping tones), failure to sufciently aspirate viscoelastic prior to using power, excessively tight incisions, and combinations of the above actions may result in signicant temperature increases at incision site and inside the eye, and lead to severe thermal eye tissue damage.Use of an ultrasonic handpiece other than an OZil® torsional handpiece, or use of a handpiece repaired without Alcon authorization, is not permitted, and may result in patient injury, including potential shock hazard to patient and/or operator.The U/S tips supplied in the Centurion® Vision System pack are only to be used on an OZil® torsional handpiece. Each U/S tip is intended to be used only once per case, and then disposed of according to local governing ordinances.Mismatching U/S tips and infusion sleeves may create potentially hazardous uidic imbalances.Directing energy toward non-lens material, such as iris or capsule, may cause mechanical and/or thermal tissue damage.Perform visual inspection of accessories for burs or bent tips prior to use.Use of appropriate technique and settings is important to minimize fragments and turbulence.
1.14 8065751772CAUTIONSNever ultrasonically clean the phaco handpiece; irreparable damage may result.Prior to sterilization, the phaco handpiece should always have the connector end cap secured and placed in the sterilization tray. This will prevent damage to the connectors and handpieces during handling, and especially during autoclaving.The phaco handpiece and INTREPID® AutoSert® IOL Injector must be at room temperature just before use. Allow the handpiece to air cool for at least 15 minutes after autoclaving; never immerse the handpiece in liquid when hot.Do not operate the phaco handpiece unless the tip is immersed in BSS® sterile irrigating solution or distilled water or is in surgical use. Irreparable damage to the handpiece and tip can result if run dry.Ensure that test chamber is lled with BSS® sterile irrigating solution before tuning the phaco handpiece. Tuning a handpiece dry may result in premature tip failure and breakage.Quenching a hot handpiece in water can cause damage and will void warranty.Be sure handpiece is completely dry before connecting it to console. Damage to handpiece and console may result if plugged in when wet. Handpiece Tips Ensure that handpiece tip is fully tightened to the handpiece. If not securely attached, an error may be generated and/or inadequate tuning will occur. Ensure that the tip is not too tight so that it can be removed after use. Use of a tool other than tip wrenches supplied by Alcon may cause damage to the tip and/or handpiece.WARNING!Poor clinical performance will result if tip is not secured tightly to the handpiece.During any ultrasonic procedure, metal particles may result from inadvertent touching of the ultrasonic tip with a second instrument. Another potential source of metal particles resulting from any ultrasonic handpiece may be the result of ultrasonic energy causing micro abrasion of the ultrasonic tip.
8065751772 1.15 Ultraow® II (I/A) Handpiece Prior to each procedure inspect the two O-rings where the tip screws onto the Ultraow® II I/A handpiece. If damaged or missing, replace the o-rings. If in doubt, contact Alcon's Technical Services Department.WARNINGS!Use of non-Alcon surgical reusable or disposable I/A handpieces that do not meet Alcon surgical specications, or use of an Alcon handpiece not specied for use with the Centurion® Vision System, may result in a uidic imbalance. This, in turn, may cause a shallowing or collapsing of the anterior chamber.Exceeding the recommended level of 100 mmHg (133 hPa) with a 0.5 mm or larger I/A tip may cause anterior chamber shallowing and/or incarceration or tearing of posterior capsule.I/A tips are not to be used with a phaco handpiece. Recommended Vacuum Range for I/A Tips It is important that only the proper size I/A tip be used when operating with maximum vacuum. Only 0.2 mm or 0.3 mm I/A tips should be used with vacuum limits above 100 mmHg (133 hPa). I/A adjustable vacuum range is 0 - 700 mmHg (0 - 933 hPa). Centurion® Vitrectomy Probe The vitrectomy probe, a guillotine vitreous cutter, is intended for single use only. Vitrectomy cutting performance may vary at high altitudes. Consult Alcon Technical Service for additional information.WARNINGS!Do not test or operate vitrectomy probe unless tip of probe is immersed in BSS® sterile irrigating solution or distilled water or is in surgical use. Irreparable damage to the probe and tip can result if run dry.Perform visual inspection of accessories for burs or bent tips prior to use.Connect pneumatic tubing connectors from vitrectomy probe to console prior to initiating prime of probe. Initiating prime of the vitrectomy probe, or running the vitrectomy system, with one or both pneumatic connectors disconnected may cause the ow of non-sterile air over the sterile eld for a brief moment.Do not use vitrectomy probes that are not approved for use on Centurion® system.After lling and testing, and before surgical use, verify that the probe is properly actuating and aspirating. This may require lowering cut rate to achieve good visualization. The port should always remain in open position in footpedal position 1. If cutting port is partially closed while in position 1, replace the probe. Prior to entry into the eye, and with tip of probe in sterile irrigating solution, the surgeon should step on the footpedal for visual verication that the probe is cutting:• If the cutter is observed to not fully close, or does not move when the probe is actuated, replace the probe.• If cutting port is partially closed while idle, replace the probe.• If air bubbles are observed in the aspiration line or exiting the probe tip during priming, replace the probe.• If a reduction of cutting capability or vacuum is observed during the surgical procedure, stop immediately and replace the probe.
1.16 8065751772 INTREPID® AutoSert® IOL InjectorCAUTIONS• Do not ultrasonically clean the AutoSert® IOL Injector connector. Ultrasonic cleaning will cause irreparable damage.• Use care when handling AutoSert® IOL Injector, particularly when cleaning. Always clean handpiece over a surface cushioned with a pad or rubber mat.• Be sure handpiece cable connector is dry before connecting it to the console.• Do not disconnect cable connector from Centurion® system console until the IOL Injector plunger is fully retracted.• Do not immerse the AutoSert® IOL Injector in any uid when the plunger is not retracted.• As part of a properly maintained surgical environment, it is recommended that a backup IOL injector be made available in the event the AutoSert® IOL injector handpiece does not perform as expected.WARNINGS!• The AutoSert® IOL Injector is non-sterile and must be cleaned and sterilized prior to, and immediately after, each use.• Never immerse the AutoSert® IOL Injector in liquid after autoclaving; allow it to air cool for at least 15 minutes. Quenching could result in a potentially hazardous condition for the patient.• The AutoSert® IOL Injector delivery system is for the implantation of Alcon qualied AcrySof® foldable IOLs. Unqualied lenses shall not be used with the system. See DFU, or contact your Alcon representative, for qualied lens/cartridge combinations.• The cartridge/IOL combination listed in the DFU, along with Alcon settings, has been validated per section 5 of BS EN ISO 11979-3:2006. Appropriate use of AutoSert® IOL Injector settings is important for successful IOL implantation. Inappropriate use of settings may lead to a potentially hazardous condition for the patient. Aspiration/Vacuum Adjustments Adjusting aspiration rates or vacuum limits above the preset values may result in aspiration levels (volumes) exceeding irrigation inow.WARNING!Adjusting aspiration rates or vacuum limits above the preset values, or lowering the IOP or IV pole below the preset values, may cause chamber shallowing or collapse which may result in patient injury.
8065751772 1.17 Presurgical Check-out Tests Presurgical check-out tests must be performed as outlined in the Operating Instructions section. If an Event message is displayed on the front panel, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this manual. If the problem persists, DO NOT PROCEED.WARNINGS!When lling handpiece test chamber, if stream of uid is weak or absent, good uidics response will be jeopardized. Good clinical practice dictates the testing for adequate irrigation and aspiration ow prior to entering the eye.Ensure that tubings are not occluded or pinched during any phase of operation.Perform visual inspection of accessories for burrs or bent tips prior to use. IV PoleWARNINGS!Keep clear of the IV pole when it is in motion to prevent skin, hair, and/or clothing from being trapped in the IV pole mechanism. The IV pole moves during power on/off, priming, and bottle height adjustment.IV pole rises automatically. To avoid stretching drip chamber tubing, and possibly pulling drip chamber out of bottle, tubing must hang freely with no interference.When out of use, remove uid bottle from IV pole and ip bottle hanger into its storage position to avoid injury.Empirical numbers for bottle heights are not a replacement for competent surgical technique. The surgeon should visually and physically monitor intraocular pressure. Footswitch If required, the footswitch may be wiped with alcohol, mild soap and water, or any germicidal solution that is compatible with the plastic parts.WARNING!Route the footswitch cable properly to avoid tripping.CAUTIONSDo not clean the footswitch using solvents, abrasives, or any cleaner that is not compatible with plastic parts made of GE Cycoloy CU 6800 and LEXAN 920A. Damage may result.Never pick up or move the footswitch by the cable. Dropping or kicking the footswitch can cause irreparable damage.
1.18 8065751772 Occlusion Tones Two different occlusion tones (intermittent beeping tones during occlusion) indicate that the vacuum is near or at its preset limit, and aspiration ow is reduced or stopped to avoid exceeding the limit. The rst type, the I/A occlusion tone, sounds when occlusion occurs during aspiration only (in the absence of ultrasonic power). The I/A occlusion tone is a lower, intermittent single beep. The second type of occlusion tone, the phaco occlusion tone, is a higher, intermittent double beep, and sounds when occlusion occurs during application of ultrasonic power. The I/A occlusion and phaco occlusion tones indicate that the vacuum has reached its maximum allowed preset value. The I/A occlusion tone can be turned off, while the phaco occlusion tone cannot be turned off.WARNINGS!The phaco occlusion bell indicates no aspiration ow. Use of high U/S settings and/or prolonged use may lead to thermal injury.Use of the phaco handpiece in the absence of irrigation ow and/or in the presence of reduced or lost aspiration ow can cause excessive heating and potential thermal injury to adjacent eye tissues.In the event of a persistent loss of aspiration during the application of U/S power, remove U/S power via footswitch control. Vacuum Tone A vacuum tone is provided. The pitch will vary relative to the amount of vacuum. A high vacuum can indicate that little to no ow is occuring. This tone can be reduced in volume, but not turned off.WARNINGS!A moderate to high vacuum tone may indicate little to no ow is occuring. Use of the phaco handpiece in the absence of irrigation ow and/or in the presence of reduced or lost aspiration ow can cause excessive heating and potential thermal injury to adjacent eye tissues.Do not exceed maximum capacity of drain bag (500 ml). Excessive pressure can result from exceeding drain bag maximum capacity and potentially result in a hazardous condition for the patient.In the event of a persistent loss of aspiration during the application of U/S power, remove U/S power via footswitch control. Cautery, Diathermy, Coagulation Denition The Centurion® Vision System uses the word “Coagulation” in place of Cautery or Diathermy, based on the following denition: Coagulation - Isolated, bipolar, high frequency current supplied to conductors (e.g. forceps). Current passes between these electrodes, halting bleeding. (Abbreviated “Coag” in some of the text of this operator’s manual.)
8065751772 1.19 Coagulation Function Listed below are general precautions to be followed when using the Coagulation function: • To ensure safe operation of the coagulation function, only approved cables and accessories must be used (See your Alcon representative). Coagulation performance can be guaranteed only when using Alcon components or Alcon-endorsed components. • To reduce the risk of accidental burns, caution should always be taken when operating high-frequency surgical equipment. • Interference produced by the operation of high-frequency surgical equipment may adversely inuence the operation of other electronic equipment. • Accessories should be checked regularly; electrode cables should particularly be checked for possible damage to the insulation. • Operation of the coagulation step is limited to extraocular uses only. • The lowest power level in coagulation step should always be selected for the intended purpose. • Skin-to-skin contact (for example between the arms and body of the patient) should be avoided, for example by insertion of dry gauze. • When HF (high frequency) surgical equipment and physiological monitoring equipment are used simultaneously on the same patient, any monitoring electrodes should be placed as far as possible from the surgical electrodes. Needle monitoring electrodes are not recommended. • In all cases, monitoring systems incorporating high frequency current-limiting devices are recommended. • The cables to the surgical electrodes should be positioned in such a way that contact with the patient or other leads is avoided. • Temporarily unused active electrodes should be stored so that they are isolated from the patient. • The use of ammable anaesthetics or oxidizing gases such as nitrous oxide (N2O) and oxygen should be avoided if a surgical procedure is carried out in the region of the thorax or the head, unless these agents are sucked away. • Non-ammable agents should be used for cleaning and disinfection wherever possible. • Flammable agents used for cleaning or disinfecting, or as solvents of adhesives, should be allowed to evaporate before the application of HF surgery. Some materials, for example cotton, wool and gauze, when saturated with oxygen may be ignited by sparks produced in normal use of the HF surgical equipment. • Accessories should have a rated voltage equal to or greater than the maximum coagulation output voltage.WARNINGS!Do not use the coagulation function on patients with pacemakers or implanted debrillatory devices. If electrosurgery is used on patients with implanted cardiac pacemakers or debrillatory devices or pacemaker electrodes, be aware that irreparable damage to the pacemaker or debrillatory device and its function may occur and lead to ventricular brillation. Please check with the pacemaker or debrillatory device manufacturers for their recommendations.Failure of the HF surgical equipment (coagulation circuitry) could result in an unintended increase of output power.
1.20 8065751772 VideOverlay SystemWARNINGS!Do not remove VideOverlay cover; there are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualied service personnel.Do not simultaneously touch the VideOverlay enclosure and the patient.CAUTIONS• Do not use multiple portable socket outlets with this system.• Use only the Alcon-supplied serial cable to connect the Centurion® Vision System to the VideOverlay System.
