If you are a new user of BioCon-900, we strongly recommend that you perform your first bladder volume measurement on a patient with moderately full bladder using Pre-Scan. Pre-Scan helps you detect the bladder and moderately full bladder can be easier to locate. WARNING ďŹ If you use BioCon-900 in the presence of flammable anesthetics, explosion hazard exists. ďŹ Do not use the BioCon-900 on following cases: 1) Fetal use or pregnant patients. 2) Patients with ascites. 3) Patients with open or damaged skin. 4) Wounds in the suprapubic region. CAUTION ďŹ If the oil leaks from housing and fluid gets in contact with your eyes, skin or clothing, flush the affected area immediately with clean water and seek medical attention or go see a doctor. 23 5.2 ACCURACY OF MEASUREMENT Following cases affect ultrasound transmission and accuracy of measurement. ďŹ When a patient has had supra-pubic or pelvic surgery ďŹ A patient with catheter in his or her bladder ďŹ A patient with scar, sutures, staples or incisions in his or her abdomen ďŹ Use of unsuitable ultrasound transmission gel ďŹ Air bubbles between probe head and the skin of the patient ďŹ An excessive obese patient ďŹ Use of the probe with an unclean probe head ďŹ Inappropriate patient position 5.3 PERFORM THE BLADDER VOLUME MEASUREMENT 5.3.1. SETTING UP See âAccuracy of measurementâ before use. Check the probeâs battery has sufficient power through battery icon. If the battery has not been sufficiently charged, recharge the battery before measurement. Wipe the probe head gently with a soft cloth dampened in isopropyl alcohol to clean and disinfect the probe. 5.3.2. MEASUREMENT OF BLADDER VOLUME Pre-Scan: General 2D real-time ultrasound scanning. 2D ultrasound images are displayed continuously in live image basis. This helps an operator locate bladder position and predicting the range of residual urine to detect the bladder before normal scan. 24 Normal scan: Get 12-plane ultrasound images and calculate the residual urine in the bladder (3D scanning). 1) Turn on the system Press the power button ( performed. ) shortly until the probe turns on. If the Pre-Scan was not on, only normal scan 2) Select patient type. BioCon-900 supports three patient types. Press the Patient type button ( ) repeatedly on the probe to select the patient type. All other patients A female who has not had a hysterectomy. A child with height less than 47 inches (120cm) and weight less than 55 lbs. (25kg). 3) Applying gel. The patient should be lying in a supine position and lift up the patient garment exposing the abdominal region from the pubis to the navel. Place an ample amount of gel without air bubbles to the probe head. Place the probe 3~4cm above the pubic bone. 4) Aim toward bladder Put the ultrasound probe on the patientâs abdomen and aim it to the location where the bladder is expected to be. 25 ďŹ When measuring the urine volume of a patient, sit or stand beside the right of the patient and grab the probe with your right hand. At this point, press the scan button with your right hand thumb. Ensure the head of the patient icon on the probe will point toward the head of the patient when you place the probe head on the patient's abdomen. ďŹ Only use the ultrasonic gel approved by FDA, CE or biocompatible ultrasonic gel. 5) Find bladder with Pre-Scan Press the Scan button to start âPre-Scanâ and start displaying the Pre-Scan image such as 2D ultrasonic image on the screen. 26 The position where the bladder image is the largest and most centered is the optimal place to start the normal scan process. To locate the bladder, keep the probe contacted the abdomen and tilt the probe forward, backward, left and right. ďŹ The Pre-Scan is executed only when âPRESCANâ setup is âONâ. When âPRESCANâ is off, a normal scan will be executed. Locate the bladder along the centerline on the screen. It helps detect the optimal position during pre-scan. 6) Press the Scan button. When you have located the bladder, as in the picture above, press the Scan button to start the Normal scan and then, the progress bar on the screen will appear. It takes 3 seconds to complete the Normal scan ďŹ Hold the probe steady while scanning. Movement of the probe during scanning reduces the accuracy of measurement. When you hear the beep, the scan is complete. 7) Check the scan results View the scan result (bladder volume) displayed in milliliters (ml). 27 The Beaker icon shows the bladder volume. (1) shows the current volume and (2) shows the maximum volume from multiple measurements for one patient. To verify the volume and check other 12 planes of bladder, press the Next plane button ( ) on the probe repeatedly 8) Record a patient information with barcode read & capture module If you donât want to record any patient information, skip this step.
