• Avoid contact with metal parts of the scope and other conductive
accessories by ensuring before activation of the HF output that the
active electrode is at a sufficient distance from the tip of the scope.
• To avoid perforation, do not use the scope tip as a probe and
exercise caution when the scope is being inserted through the
cervix and when the scope tip is near the uterine wall.
Inspection Prior to Use
Prior to each use, the outer surface of the insertion portion of
the hysteroscope should be inspected to ensure there are no
unintended rough surfaces, sharp edges or protrusions. Check that
both the hysteroscope and outflow channel contain seals.
Hysteroscope System Set-up Instructions
The MyoSure Rod Lens Hysteroscope consists of a removable
outflow channel (40-201) and hysteroscope (40-200) as shown
in Figure 1.
The MyoSure XL Rod Lens Hysteroscope consists of a removable
outflow channel (50-201XL) and hysteroscope (50-200XL).

To place removable outflow channel into hysteroscope:
Insert the removable outflow channel into the proximal seal of the
hysteroscope working channel. Reverse this process to remove the
outflow channel.
To Insert Sterile Single-Use Seal (40-902):
Both the hysteroscope and the outflow channel contain single-use
seals for their working channels. Figure 2 below illustrates the
installation of the seals.
Caution: To ensure proper performance of the system and prevent
leaks, install new seals in the hysteroscope and the outflow
channel prior to use.

Hysteroscope Assembly/Disassembly Instructions
The MyoSure Rod Lens Hysteroscope is compatible with Metal-
Halide and Xenon light sources with up to 300 watts of power.
Place the correct adapter on the light post of the fiber optic scope
and on the instrument end of the light guide. Adapters are available
for connection to Storz, Olympus, Wolf, and ACMI light sources as
shown in Figure 3.

FIGURE 3. LIGHT POST ADAPTERS
The light post threads may be lubricated as needed, being sure to
remove any excess lubricant as required. Make sure that the fiber
optic surface remains free of foreign matter. Do not use tools to
tighten the adapters – hand tighten only.
Directions for Use
The surgeon may look through the direct-view hysteroscope (with
eyepiece) directly with his or her eye. If a video system is being
connected to the scope, thread a camera coupler onto the camera
head and then insert the eyepiece into the camera coupler.
Plug the video cable into the camera control unit (CCU).
Turn on the power to the monitor, CCU, and light source. Adjust the
video system components per the manufacturer's instructions. The
system is now ready to use.
Hysteroscope Cleaning Instructions—General
The device should not be allowed to dry after procedure before
cleaning to ensure effective removal of contaminant material.
• If still inserted, separate the removable outflow channel from the
hysteroscope.
• Light post adaptors must be removed prior to cleaning and
sterilization.
• Remove single-use seals from hysteroscope and removable
outflow channel
• Warning: Failure to remove the single-use seals from
hysteroscope and removable outflow channel will affect proper
cleaning and sterilization of the product.
• Open the stopcocks on the hysteroscope and removable outflow
channel.
