0:00 - [Narrator] Welcome to Sonosite iLOOK,

0:02 designed for vascular access.

0:04 In this educational video,

0:06 we'll be covering everything you need to know

0:07 about the Sonosite iLOOK

0:09 L15-5 megahertz wireless transducer.

0:13 This lightweight and durable wireless transducer

0:15 provides procedural freedom at multiple bedside positions.

0:19 The integrated transducer holder

0:21 functions as a wireless charging dock

0:23 that lets you charge on the go.

0:25 The transducer operates on frequencies 15-5 megahertz,

0:29 has a scan depth range of 1.2-6.2 centimeters,

0:32 and a footprint size of 38 millimeters.

0:35 Let's begin by powering on the transducer.

0:38 Press the power button on the bottom of the transducer

0:40 for 1-2 seconds.

0:42 This is the same for powering off.

0:44 The wireless L15-5 transducer

0:47 connects to the Sonosite iLOOK system

0:49 through a direct WiFi connection

0:51 and must be registered to the system's database

0:53 when used for the first time.

0:55 To register the transducer,

0:56 first ensure it is powered on and within range.

0:59 A flashing blue light

1:00 will appear on the side of the transducer,

1:02 indicating it is on and ready for connection.

1:05 Tap the system menu icon in the top right-hand corner

1:09 to open the transducer settings menu.

1:11 Tap Connect to transducer,

1:13 then Add transducer.

1:15 A dialogue box appears.

1:16 Tap Connect.

1:18 A list appears that displays any transducers

1:20 that are on and can be registered.

1:23 Transducers are identified

1:24 by the serial number located on their label.

1:27 From the list, tap the transducer you want to add.

1:30 Once the registration process is complete,

1:32 the transducer will appear in the transducer settings menu.

1:35 The system will also connect to the transducer

1:38 every time the user initiates scanning

1:40 when both the system and transducer are turned on.

1:44 It is recommended to leave the transducer always powered on

1:47 to minimize connection time.

1:49 It is possible to register

1:50 multiple transducers to one system.

1:53 However, it is recommended to keep one transducer per system

1:56 in a multi-system use scenario.

1:58 This will reduce confusion

2:00 when it comes to transducer connection.

2:02 It is possible to rename the transducer on the system.

2:05 However, it is recommended

2:06 to keep the serial number in the name

2:08 as it can be used to confirm the registered transducer

2:11 in the future.

2:12 The system will always attempt to auto connect

2:15 to the last connected transducer.

2:18 The transducer holder on the side of the system

2:20 is also the transducer charger.

2:22 It is designed to only hold the transducer one way

2:25 to ensure secure charge connection.

2:27 It is recommended that the L15-5 wireless transducer

2:31 is always stored in the transducer holder

2:33 until the user is ready for scanning,

2:35 and placed back into the holder once scanning is complete.

2:38 This will ensure that the transducer

2:39 is available to automatically charge when not in use

2:42 and maximizes scanning time.

2:45 When the system is not connected to AC power,

2:47 the transducer will still charge with the battery

2:49 inside of the stand head.

2:52 The solid white indicator light

2:53 is shown when the transducer

2:55 is docked in the holder and charging.

2:57 When the transducer is removed from the holder,

2:59 it will show a pulsing blue light,

3:01 indicating the transducer is on and ready to connect.

3:05 When Scan mode is selected on the interface,

3:07 the transducer will auto connect

3:09 and show a green light as confirmation.

3:12 While scanning,

3:12 the power button will also act as a freeze button

3:15 when short pressed.

3:17 There are two battery indicators on the display,

3:19 one for the system and one for the transducer.

3:22 The transducer, when fully charged,

3:24 will provide approximately two hours of continuous scanning.

3:28 A pro tip for transducer battery optimization

3:31 is to short press the transducer power button

3:33 to freeze the image while not actively scanning

3:36 to conserve battery during longer procedural use.

3:39 When the transducer indicator light turns orange,

3:42 there is approximately 30 minutes left

3:44 of 2D scanning at default settings.

3:47 If the transducer is not charging,

3:49 verify it is properly seated in the charging dock

3:52 and that the system has power

3:53 either from the battery or from AC power.

3:57 If the transducer won't connect,

3:59 check that it is powered on,

4:00 charged and pulsing blue

4:02 before you press Connect on the system menu.

4:04 After turning the transducer on,

4:06 make sure to wait 10 seconds before attempting to connect.

4:10 When operating within standard hospital temperatures,

4:13 the user can expect

4:14 to continuously scan with default settings

4:16 without any transducer overheating concerns.

4:20 The transducer holder is designed with a cooling unit

4:22 to maintain transducer temperature while charging.

4:26 In rare occasions,

4:27 a warning will appear when the transducer

4:29 reaches close to its safety threshold,

4:31 informing you approximately 10 minutes prior

4:34 to the transducer shutting down for safety considerations.

4:38 For strong operational transducer performance,

4:40 maintain a clear line of sight to the system

4:43 with no physical obstructions.

4:45 The wireless connection ensures strong connection

4:47 between the transducer and the system

4:49 and will maintain connection

4:50 well within expected operational range.

4:53 Clean the transducer after each use

4:55 with appropriate disinfectants.

4:57 Use market clear transducer sheaths and gel

5:01 with sterility appropriate to the procedure.

5:05 Now it's time for you to explore on your own.
