Safety
1.
Safety Before using this equipment, please study this manual carefully and familiarise yourself with the controls, display features and operation. Ensure that each user fully understands the safety and operation of the unit, as misuse may cause harm to the user or patient, or damage to the product. We recommend that exposure to ultrasound should be kept As Low As Reasonably Achievable - (ALARA guidelines). This is considered to be good practice and should be observed at all times. Please keep these Instructions for Use to hand for future reference.
Attention, consult this manual. Refer to safety section.
Attention, consult accompanying documents / Instructions for Use
1.1
Warnings Do not use in the presence of flammable gases such as anaesthetic agents Do not use in the sterile field unless additional barrier precautions are taken. Do Not : • immerse in any liquid, (except FD1/FD3 probe) • use solvent cleaner, • use high temperature sterilising processes (such as autoclaving), • use E-beam or gamma radiation sterilisation. The main unit is not waterproof and must not be immersed. For underwater use where contamination or cross-infection may occur, additional barrier precautions must be taken. Do not use on the eye.
4
Do not attempt to recharge normal dry-cell batteries. They may leak, cause a fire or even explode.
Safety
Do not dispose of batteries in fire as this can cause them to explode.
This product contains sensitive electronics, therefore, strong radio frequency fields could possibly interfere with it. This will be indicated by unusual sounds from the loudspeaker. We recommend that the source of interference is identified and eliminated Any equipment connected to RS232 interface must be compliant with IEC60601-1:2005.
Connect headphones only to the headphone socket. Dopplex Dopplers are screening tools to aid the healthcare professional and should not be used in place of normal vascular or fetal monitoring. If there is doubt as to vascularity or fetal well-being after using the unit, further investigations should be undertaken immediately using alternative techniques.
1.2
Patient Applied Parts As defined in IEC60601-1:2005, the patient applied parts of the Dopplex Dopplers are the ultrasound probes.

Unpacking / Preliminary Checks Contents
IN RU FOR ST USE CTIONS
Delivery Inspection Huntleigh takes every precaution to ensure that goods reach you in perfect condition. However, accidental damage can occur in transit and storage. For this reason we recommend that a thorough visual inspection is made immediately the unit is received. Should any damage be evident or any parts missing, ensure that Huntleigh or your distributor is informed at once. Storage Should the unit not be required for immediate use, it should be re-sealed into its original packing after carrying out the initial delivery inspection, and stored under covered conditions at a temperature between -10°C to +40°C, and relative humidity of 10% to 93% non-condensing.

Operation Refer to diagram on inside front cover for Doppler Measuring sites and Recommended Probes. To connect the probe, align the arrow on the connector with the slot on the probe and push firmly.
Operation
3.
To disconnect the probe, pull the connector sharply. DO NOT pull the cable. Note:
During use, an automatic noise reduction feature operates on low level signals to improve sound quality.
Coupling Gel Use water based ultrasound gel ONLY.
3.1
Vascular Mode (FD2 Only) The FD2 will select vascular mode when a vascular probe is connected to the control unit. Vascular Probes Five probes are available for vascular examinations:
VP4HS
4MHz ±1% for deep lying vessels
VP5HS
5MHz ±1% for deep lying vessels and oedematous limbs
VP8HS
8MHz ±1% for peripheral vessels
VP10HS
10MHz ±1% for specialist superficial applications.
EZ8
8MHZ ±1% “Widebeam” for peripheral vessels.
In this mode, blood flow is audible in the loudspeaker. Probe frequency is displayed.
Clinical Use Apply a liberal amount of gel on the site to be examined. Place the probe at 45° to the skin surface over the vessel to be examined. Adjust the position of the probe to obtain the loudest audio signal. High pitched pulsatile sounds are emitted from arteries while veins emit a non-pulsatile sound similar to a rushing wind. For best results, keep the probe as still as possible once the optimum position has been found. Adjust the audio volume as required.
9
Operation
3.2
Obstetric Mode Fetal Dopplex II (FD2) Obstetric mode is automatically selected when an obstetric probe (OP2HS/ OP3HS) is connected. Fetal Heart Rate (FHR) is displayed with 3 operating modes, and an RS232 interface provides for FHR printing when connected to the Dopplex Printa Package. Obstetric Probes Two probes are available for obstetric examinations:
OP2HS
2MHz ±1%
OP3HS
3MHz ±1%
Fetal Dopplex (FD1/FD3) Operates in standard mode to provide FHR display. The probe/cable are waterproof and can be fully immersed for use in waterbirths.
The FD1/FD3 main unit is not waterproof and must not be immersed.
Clinical Use Apply a liberal amount of gel to the abdomen*. Place the faceplate of the probe flat against the abdomen above the symphysis pubis. Adjust the probe to obtain an optimum audio signal ideally by angling the probe around. Avoid sliding it over the skin. In early pregnancy a full bladder may improve sound detection. In later pregnancy the best signals are generally located higher on the abdomen. The fetal heart sounds like a galloping horse at approximately twice the maternal rate. A wind-like sound is heard from the placenta. *Note: For FD1/FD3 : Gel is not required when probe is used underwater.
Standard Mode - FD1/FD2/FD3 In this mode the FHR, averaged over 4-heart beats, is displayed on the 3-digit readout. The LCD displays an outline heart symbol.
10
This mode is used to obtain more stable heart rate readings. In this mode, FHR is averaged over 8 beats. The LCD displays a solid heart symbol.
Operation
Smoothed Mode - FD2 Only
Manual Mode - FD2 Only This mode is used when a fetal heart beat is audible in the loudspeaker or headphones but, due to noise or a low signal level, the FD2 cannot reliably calculate the heart rate. In this mode, the heart rate can be manually counted over a period of 10 audible heart beats (see below). The FD2 will automatically calculate and display the derived FHR on the LCD. The LCD displays a clock symbol.
Mode Selection
Press the Mode button to select mode.
Use of Manual Mode (FD2 Only) 1.
Press and hold Start/Stop button and immediately count the audible heart beats, counting the first beat as the button is pressed. The LCD displays the flashing clock symbol and the FHR reading is shown as three dashes.
2.
Release the Start/Stop button immediately on the count of 10 (i.e. After nine beat intervals). The FD2 will automatically calculate the derived FHR averaged over the 10 beat period and display the result. This rate value is retained until the measurement is repeated or the unit is switched off. If the button is held for a period less than about 3 seconds the display will clear the previous rate value and reset.
Connection to Printa II™ (FD2 Only) Hard copy printing is automatically selected when the plug of the interface buffer box is inserted into the RS232 socket on the top panel of the FD2. Printing is then initiated by using the Start/Stop button.

After Use 1.
Press and release the On/Off button. If you forget to switch the unit off, it will automatically shut-off after 3 minutes.
2.
Refer to the cleaning section before storing or using the unit on another patient.
3.
Store unit together with probe and accessories in the soft carry case provided.
Care and Cleaning
4.1
General Care All Huntleigh products have been designed to withstand normal clinical use, however they can contain delicate components, for example the probe tip, which should be handled and treated with care. Periodically, and whenever the integrity of the system is in doubt, carry out a check of all functions as described in the relevant section of the IFU. If there are any defects to the housing contact Huntleigh or your distributor for repair or to order a replacement.
Care and Cleaning
4.
Please ensure that you check with your facility’s local infection control policy and medical equipment cleaning procedures. Observe warnings and guidance on cleaning fluid labelling regarding use and personal protective equipment (PPE). Do not use abrasive cloths or cleaners.
Do not use automatic washers or autoclaves. Phenolic detergent based disinfectants, solutions containing cationic surfactants, ammonia based compounds or perfumes and antiseptic solutions such as Steriscol or Hibiscrub should never be used. If detergent or disinfectant wipes are used ensure that excess solution is squeezed from the wipe prior to use. Do not allow any fluid to enter the products and do not immerse in any solution. Always wipe off disinfectant using a cloth dampened with clean water.
