Tools and disposable components warnings
W47 Tools are available for resection of soft tissue and bone for surgical procedures. Use of tools depends on the intended application and patient needs. Sharp-
cutting powered tools induce bleeding and removal of signicant tissue and bone.
W48 Tool utes are sharp and may perforate surgical gloves. Tool stems may be grasped with a hemostat to aid in installation and removal. Use methods at the
operative site to control bleeding that do not compromise patient safety during surgery.
W49 Keep the cutting area of the tool away from ngers and loose clothing to prevent laceration of user and cross-contamination through compromised glove.
W50 Operate the tool only after appropriate anatomical landmarks at the intended surgical site have been conrmed.
W51 Use care in application of the rotating cutting end to only appropriate anatomical landmarks and the intended surgical site when using powered accessories.
W52 Insertion of metal objects in accessory tip may cause the accessory to break leaving fragments in the wound. The fragments may be dicult to remove,
causing irritation, inammation, and foreign-body response at surgical site.
W53 Bending or prying may break the accessory, causing harm to patient or user.
W54 Do not use excessive force to pry or push bone with the attachment or tool during dissection.
W55 A tool’s size and geometry may create excessive vibration at certain speeds. Increase or decrease speed of the motor to prevent vibration. Change to a new tool
to prevent unintended tissue removal from patient.
W56 Test for wobble at desired speed prior to use. Discontinue use of accessory if tip begins to wobble and replace accessory to prevent unintended tissue removal
from patient.
W57 Carefully inspect dissecting tool both prior to and following each use for signs of excessive wear, fragmentation, eccentricities, or other defects. Replace any
suspicious dissecting tools with a new one prior to use.
W58 Eccentricity of the tool can cause tool vibration and may result in excess tissue destruction, bone destruction, and hearing damage.
W59 Excessive noise from the tool when drilling close to the cochlea or ossicular chain may cause hearing damage.
W60 Consult the cranial perforator device labeling for recommended speed specications.
W61 Tools with “L” identication are longer tools intended for light bone dissection. The increased tool head/stem conguration may aect dissection stability.
