BVI 9400 User’s Quick Reference
Turn on the BladderScan® BVI 9400
by pressing the POWER ON/OFF button.
Select scanning mode
The BladderScan BVI 9400 is designed to scan in three patientspecific modes. Select the proper exam mode to ensure the accuracy of your scan. Simply press the button repeatedly until the desired setting appears:
Select to scan a male patient, or a female patient who has had a hysterectomy
Select to scan a female patient who has not had a hysterectomy
Select to scan a small child under 48 inches (122cm) tall and weighing less than 60 lbs (27kg)
With the patient supine, apply gel
Have the patient lie in the supine position with abdominal muscles relaxed.
Palpate the patient's symphysis pubis (pubic bone). Place
an ample quantity of gel (with as few air bubbles as possible) midline on the patient's abdomen, approximately one inch (3 cm) above the symphysis pubis.
Aim toward the bladder
Standing at the patient’s right side, place the Probe on the gel and aim toward the expected location of the bladder. For most patients, this means tilting the Probe slightly toward the patient's coccyx (tailbone) so the scan clears the pubic bone.
Press the SCAN button
Press the SCAN button, located on the underside of the Probe. As the scan progresses, sections of the bladder will appear on the console screen. When you hear the end-scan tone, the scan is complete.
