OLYMPUS CAPSULE ENDOSCOPE SYSTEM
5.7 Preparing the capsule endoscope
Do not use a capsule endoscope that have been dropped,
bitten or been subjected to excessive pressure. Using such a
capsule endoscope may result in infection of patient and/or
medical personnel, as well as internal injury to the patient
due to equipment damage.
• If the sterile container is open or damaged, the sterility of the
capsule endoscope may have been compromised. Use a
new capsule endoscope instead.
• To prevent the capsule endoscope battery from deteriorating,
store the capsule endoscope under a temperature of 0 to
25°C (39 to 77°F). Do not store in a refrigerator or a freezer,
as condensation may result.
Clean the capsule activator with a cotton swab soaked in
70% ethyl or isopropyl alcohol.
