Count Out Screen
The Count Out screen is displayed while in Count Out mode. Count Out mode is used for scanning sponges
out of the surgical case that are discarded into the Count Out Basin. The Count Out Basin’s antennas are only
active while in Count Out mode. Sponges that are scanned out will increase the Out column of the onscreen
sponge counts and the Find column will subsequently decrease.
Refer to page 4-7 for a description of Count Out mode.
Figure 2-9 Count Out Screen
Wand Screen
The Wand screen is displayed while in Wand mode. Wand mode is used for detecting sponges with the
SmartWand. Detected sponges will be displayed in the “FOUND” column onscreen. These detected sponges
are not counted into or out of the surgical case. The SmartWand is also used to scan a SmartTag if you have
placed one underneath the patient before the surgery. The detection status of the SmartTag is displayed on the
Wand screen. You’re also able to press the HELP icon in the bottom right of the screen for an illustration that
describes the patient scanning procedure.
Refer to page 4-17 for a description of Wand mode.
Figure 2-10 Wand Screen
In the example to the left, 3 18x18 lap
sponges have been
scanned out by the
Count Out Basin while in Count Out
mode. This adds
3 sponges to the OUT
column and subtracts 3 from the FIND
column. OUT represents the total of that
type that have been counted out.
The RESET button clears
all of the detected items
from the screen (including
the SmartTag).
