Having the correct transducer(s) available is CRUCIAL for performing Ultrasound examinations.

Additional transducers are most likely required. See M-Turbo Ultrasound Probes (accessories).

Transducer needs vary by project site. To order the most suitable transducers for your site, please contact POCUS@msf.org or the POCUS advisor for further advice.

Consider ordering a backup of the transducer the project uses most frequently.

Recommended additional orders

*Ultrasound exams are not possible without gel! Please order months in advance, and recommend ordering more than necessary until exact usage/month is well known. This gel has a long shelf-life with no temperature requirements. NEVER use alcohol or oil based products (Sterilium, povidone-iodine, alcohol gel, gel cleansers) as these may damage the transducer. Sterile lubrication or plain WATER may be used as alternatives.

**Only 0.5% Anios Clean diluted solution, made fresh daily, should be used to clean transducers. This is required after EVERY patient exam. Surfanios is NOT approved as a cleaning solution and may damage the transducers. NEVER use alcohol or oil based products (Sterilium, povidone-iodine, alcohol gel, gel cleansers) as these may damage the transducer.

*** Only necessary if the electrical network is NOT already protected by MSF standard double-conversion UPS

• See: Ultrasound manual For trained practitioners, MSF, 2018

It is mandatory to protect the device with a double conversion UPS, and a voltage limiter with timer (see related articles below)

The transducer is not autoclavable.

After each examination, it must be cleaned and disinfected with a 0.5% detergent-disinfectant solution for medical equipment (either 25 ml = 1 stroke of dosing pump for 5 liters of water).
