Chapter 5: Preparing the System
for Use
The laser system is shipped directly from the factory to your site. Your
Lumenis service representative initially uncrates, inspects, sets up, and
installs the laser system to ensure that it is working properly. In addition,
Lumenis provides in-service training to ensure that your surgical staff is
experienced with the performance and safety considerations of the laser
system. Thereafter, you or the nursing staff at your facility will perform
the daily maintenance routines associated with the laser system and any
optical fibers used during surgery, including inspecting and cleaning the
laser and optical fibers; connecting, disconnecting, and sterilizing the
delivery systems; and verifying the aiming beam integrity. These
procedures are detailed in this manual and in the optical fiber instruction
guide. If your scheduled surgical procedure requires disposable delivery
devices or accessories, it is helpful to have extra items ready and available
in the treatment room should they be needed to complete a procedure.
WARNING:
• Verify that all persons in the treatment room are wearing the
appropriate laser safety eyewear. Refer to Laser Safety Eyewear.
• Before connecting the Lumenis Pulse 50H or 100H components,
inspect the individual components, cables, and electrical connections
for dirt, debris, or damage. Verify that the electrical cables are not
frayed or split. Contact your Lumenis Customer Service if any
component appears damaged.
