System Description The Diego Powered Dissector & Drill System from Gyrus ACMI, Inc. - ENT Division is comprised of a console, optional powered handpieces, footswitch, tubing set and hospital grade power cord. Console –Provides power and functionality to the specified Diego and Otologic handpieces. In addition, a peristaltic irrigation pump is integrated into the controller unit to facilitate local irrigation. Footswitch – The footpedal’s loop style base allows for easy “no-look” identification, orientation and movement under the table. Lights are incorporated on the pedal for easy orientation in a darkened operating room. Footswitch allows the user to operate the Diego handpiece in the traditional way. Diego also provides the option of handpiece actuation. Handpiece – The handpiece accepts a range of one-time use cutting blades, and tissue removal and drilling burrs. The handpiece's shape takes into account the comfortable neutral hand position and is designed to reduce "cord drag" to optimize balance and reduce fatigue. The handpiece includes a proprietary fluid control design that retards contact of bodily fluids from soiling the inner surfaces of Diego. The handpiece also allows the user to aim the cutting window of the blade circumferentially with minimal arm motion. Diego uses Diego blades and burrs from Gyrus ACMI, Inc. - ENT Division. Otologic handpiece styles are available in addition to Diego, including the Stapes drill, and Viper Straight or Angled handpieces. All are lightweight and designed to provide balanced power. One-Time-Use Tubing Set – The disposable tubing set combines suction and irrigation tubing into one component. The tubing set snaps into place, and works in tandem with the fluid control design to speed set-up and cleaning. The tubing set is discarded at the end of the procedure. The Viper high-speed drill uses a separate tubing set that does not include suction. Under normal conditions, blades and burrs may come in contact with the patient. PK blades are type BF applied parts.

Blade and Burr Set-up (Powered Dissector) The Diego Handpiece (Sold separately from console) The Diego Powered Dissector handpiece (Catalog No. 70338010, 70339001) is a lightweight and powerful handpiece specifically designed for use with the Diego console, and performs to the parameters listed in Table 1. In order to operate the handpiece, chuck a single use disposable blade/burr into the chucking mechanism (one of 8 available positions). Diego includes a revolving blade chucking feature, allowing the user to orient the blade window manually. Once securely chucked, the user can manually orient the blade window orientation by rotating the nose cone left or right.
Powered Dissector Blades and Burrs Diego Powered Dissector blades/burrs are provided sterile and are single-use disposable instruments. Their hubs are designed to fit only the Gyrus ACMI, Inc. - ENT Division Diego Powered Dissector handpieces. There are various patterns, including straight, curved, smooth blades, serrated blades, and burrs.
Powered Dissector Blade and Burr Engagement A Powered Dissector blade or burr may be positioned in each of 24 different positions on Diego. The window position may be changed intraoperatively by rotating the nose cone. To engage the Powered Dissector blades/burrs: 1. Pull the sliding collet back. 2. Rotate the hub until the key aligns on the chucking mechanism. 3. Insert the plastic driver hub of the blade/burr into the handpiece until it stops completely. 4. Release the collet and firmly push the blade/burr into the handpiece until the collet springs back into its original position. 5. Pull slightly on the shaft of the blade/burr to verify engagement. 6. If the blade/burr pulls out, repeat steps 1-5. To disengage the Powered Dissector blade/burr: 1. Pull the sliding collet back. 2. Pull the blade/burr out of the handpiece. NOTE: Since the Powered Dissector blade/burr is a two-piece configuration, it is possible that the inner component may remain in the handpiece when the outer component is removed. If this happens, simply pull the inner component out. The chucking mechanism will not engage the inner component alone. The blades, burrs and tubing sets are one-time use disposable items. These items should be replaced after each surgery. Disposal of these items should comply with local hospital regulations for disposable items. Diego® System Manual

Burr Set-up (Otologic Drills) Viper Handpieces: (Sold separately from console) There are 2 Viper handpieces: Angled (70338030) and Straight (70338031). The handpiece power cord attaches through a custom strain relief for anti-rotation and anti-pullout, and attaches to the console with a quick release connecor. Hybrid ceramic bearings are used for decreased friction and corrosion resistance. The burr chucking mechanism features a locking ring with no external button to eliminate accidental release of the burr. Each handpiece has replaceable irrigation tubing that is secured to the power cord with quick release connectors. This tubing has a male luer connector.
Stapes Handpiece: (Sold separately from console) There is one stapes handpiece: (70338032) The handpiece power cord attaches through a custom strain relief for anti-rotation and anti-pullout, and attaches to the console with a quick release connector. The burr chucking mechanism incorporates a sliding collet. Hybrid ceramic bearings are used for decreased friction and corrosion resistance. The shaft is bent at a 15º angle to maximize visualization of the operative site.
Viper / Drill Burr Engagement: THE VIPER HANDPIECES WILL WORK ONLY WITH THE VIPER/MASTOID BURRS. THE STAPES HANDPIECE WILL WORK ONLY WITH THE STAPES BURRS. NOTE: ALL VIPER/MASTOID BURRS COME STERILE AND ARE INTENDED FOR ONE USE ONLY. STAPES BURRS ARE NON-STERILE AND CAN BE RE-USED, AFTER STERILIZATION. The Viper drill has a burr locking ring for engaging and disengaging burrs. When this locking mechanism is open the burrs will not engage. The locking ring must be closed in order to engage the burrs.
Viper / Mastoid burrs are engaged as follows: 1. Lock the locking ring by rotating it forward until it stops turning. 2. Insert the notched end of the burr into the nosecone of the handpiece. 3. Rotate the burr back and forth, and pull in and out slightly until you hear and feel a click. 4. Tug slightly on the burr. If it does not pull out, it has engaged. If it pulls out, repeate the above procedure. Another indicator of burr engagement is a ring around the shank of the burr. If this ring is visible after burr insertion, the burr is not properly engaged. 5. If the burr still does not engage, pull it out of the nosecone, rotate the bur one-quarter turn, and repeat the initial procedure again.

4434957 Diego manual - Rev AC-2_Diego Manual 2 7/17/12 9:53 AM Page 22
The stapes handpiece has a sliding collet burr engagement mechanism. This grooved collet is located just behind the angled shaft of the nosecone. Engage the Stapes Burrs as follows: 1. Pull back on the sliding collet. 2. Hold the collet in place and insert the burr into the nosecone. 3. Release the sliding collet. 4. Gently tug outward on the burr. If it does not pull out, the burr has engaged. If it does pull out, repeat the burr engagement procedure.
DO NOT OPERATE THE HANDPIECE IF THE BURR IS NOT PROPERLY ENGAGED. If the burr is not properly engaged, the drill will not cut and the drive components may be damaged. THE DRILL HANDPIECES ARE DESIGNED FOR USE ONLY WITH GYRUS ACMI BURRS. No other burrs will engage or function with these handpieces. ALL GYRUS ACMI CUTTING BURRS ARE DESIGNED TO CUT IN THE FORWARD DIRECTION. The diamond burr functions equally well in forward or reverse.
Viper / Mastoid burrs are changed as follows: 1. Loosen the locking ring one-half to one full turn. IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CONSOLE BE TURNED OFF PRIOR TO BURR REMOVAL. 2. Remove the burr. BURRS, PARTICULARLY CUTTING BURRS, MAY BECOME VERY HOT DURING USE. Exercise caution when removing burrs. 3. Lock the ring by rotating it forward until it stops turning. 4. Repeat the burr engagement procedure.
Stapes burrs are changed as follows: 1. Pull back on the sliding collet. 2. Remove the burr and hold the collet open. 3. Insert the new burr 4. Release the collet.

Cleaning and Sterilization Important Guidelines for Cleaning Thorough cleaning and rinsing is vital to reprocessing reusable medical devices. Effective cleaning must be carried out to achieve proper decontamination. All cleaning should be performed in a manner designed to minimize exposure to bloodborne pathogens. Reusable medical devices should be kept moist immediately after use until cleaning. Devices capable of disassembly must be disassembled prior to cleaning. Thorough cleaning and rinsing should be carried out as soon as possible. Manual cleaning with appropriate brushes should be done while the instrument is being rinsed (if applicable). The purpose of cleaning and rinsing is to remove all adherent visible soil and to reduce particulate matter, microorganisms and pyrogens. Furthermore, thorough rinsing is necessary to remove any residual cleaning agents from the medical devices that could protect microorganisms from destruction and reduce the lethality of the sterilization process. Medical devices that will be stored between cleaning and decontamination should be dried with low linting, non-abrasive soft cloth to prevent microbial contamination that could result from wet instruments. Console and Footswitch Wipe the outside of the console and footswitch using a soft wipe and isopropyl alcohol. Cleaning Agents and Equipment Detergents
Proteolytic enzymatic detergents with a pH range between 6.0 and 8.0 should be used. These detergents have nonionic surfactants. Detergents should be used at the concentration level recommended by the manufacturer. Note: Undiluted detergents and ones with pHs greater than 8.0 can strip the coloration from metal instruments.
Water
The quality of water should be carefully considered for use in preparing enzymatic detergents and for rinsing in the cleaning procedure. Water hardness is a concern because deposits left on medical devices may result in ineffective cleaning and decontamination. Deionized water can help prevent discoloration and staining associated with mineral residues found in tap water.
Sterile isopropyl alcohol prep pads Soft Cloths Cleaning Brushes
Used for cleaning console and footswitch. For drying handpiece. Diego Powered Dissector Cleaning Kit (70338009) and the Synergy Drill Cleaning Kit (70325512) are both available from Gyrus ACMI, Inc. ENT Division at 1-800-773-4301.
