Hanging the Fluid Bags
WARNING!
Distension media
When performing monopolar hysteroscopic electrosurgery, the distension medium
must be electrically non-conductive. Examples include glycine, sorbitol and man-
nitol. Isotonic saline irrigation fluids may only be used when performing bipolar
electrosurgical resective procedures.
Hang one or two fluid bags filled with distension fluid appropriate for procedure.
WARNING!
Irrigation fluid bags
The system is only intended for use with flexible fluid bags. Do not use glass con-
tainers as they might break. With rigid containers, fluid cannot flow quickly
enough due to the vacuum being generated inside of the containers. Risk of implo-
sion with rigid containers.
