Operation For Craniotomy; Operating The Depth Stop; Operating The Holding Sleeve - Aesculap GB740R Instrucciones De Manejo

Aesculap Power Systems
Craniotome handpiece GB740R and accessories
Risk of infection and contamination due to aerosol
formation!
Take appropriate protective measures, e.g.
WARNING
watertight protective clothing, face mask,
protective goggles and a suction extraction
system.
Risk of injury and damage to the tool/system! The
rotating tool may catch cover drapes (textile or
other).
WARNING
Never allow the tool to touch cover drapes
(textile or other) during operation.
Risk of injury (necroses) and damage to the
craniotome reamer due to contact with the guard
bracket (metal abrasion)!
WARNING
Work with mild forward pressure only.
Replace craniotome reamer after any collision.
Note
Do not run the handpiece without a tool coupled for any length of time!
For fully exploiting the advantages of this power system, operate it at
maximum motor speed whenever possible.
Cool craniotome reamer 12 continuously during operation, as the
material worked on will heat up due to the high rotation speeds of the
tool.
We recommend removing surface debris immediately after operating
the system, using a moistened disposable cloth or paper tissue.

4.9.1 Operation for craniotomy

Insert dura protector (fixed) 9/dura protector (pivoted) 24 into the
drilling hole, guiding dura protector foot 8 underneath the cranial
calotte (by slightly withdrawing the handpiece).
To avoid overbending craniotome reamer 12, or bringing it into contact
with the guard bracket, only apply mild forward pressure during
operation.
To prevent the guard bracket from getting caught in the reaming slot,
hold craniotome handpiece 1 as close to vertical as possible, and do
not tilt or cant it.

4.9.2 Operating the depth stop

Risk of injury (necroses) and damage to the spiral
burr due to contact with the stop sleeve (metal
abrasion)!
WARNING
Drill axially whenever possible.
The drilling depth does not correspond to the value
set on the scale of the depth stop!
Only use the appropriate spiral burrs.
CAUTION
Do not repoint the spiral burrs.
To set the drill hole depth, press pushbutton 16 and slide stop
sleeve 19 to the required position.
Scale 17 shows the actual drilling depth setting. The drilling depth can
be adjusted between 2 and 8 mm, in steps of 1 mm.

4.9.3 Operating the holding sleeve

When working with the holding sleeve, hold the system at the holding
sleeve whenever possible. This will enhance the system precision.
