1. INTRODUCTION
Intended Use
The Echo/Vasc Pro Vascular Ultrasound Table was designed to provide a safe ergonomic
environment for the sonographer and patient. The design features are intended to relieve
musculoskeletal stress on the sonographer while scanning, and to provide the utmost patient
comfort.
Indications For Use
The Echo/Vasc Pro Vascular ultrasound table is typically used in radiology departments,
diagnostic imaging centers and private practice clinics to achieve quality images for a variety of
procedures and patient applications, avoiding physical stress and strain on the sonographer
while scanning.
The table’s design features vertical height adjustment to accommodate sonographers petite and
tall, or the option to frequently change from seated or standing work position. Cutouts on either
side of the table enable full patient access and sonographer ergonomics. The cardiac scanning
cutout provides open access to the patient’s left thorax area for unobstructed apical approach.
Ergonomically designed, the sonographer cutout virtually eliminates repetitive strain injuries.
General Cleaning And Maintenance
1. As required, cleanse all exterior surfaces and tabletop pads with a mild detergent solution,
such as Parker Laboratories Protex Disinfectant or any one-step disinfectant that does not
contain bleach.
2. Keep wheel assemblies free of foreign materials and dirt accumulation.
3. Periodically inspect all welds.
4. Periodically check bolts on table, tighten if necessary.
5. Periodically inspect all strap holders. Any holder that feels loose should be removed and
reattached after adding a spot of Loctite®Threadlocker (Blue #242) to the bolt threads. This
should ensure that the bolt will not loosen again in the future.

sonographer cutout cushion release handles. This will release the cushion, which can now be
lowered. To return the cushion back to the level position, squeeze the handles together and
lift up on the cushion until it is higher than level and then lower the cushion back down until it
locks in the level position.
• To raise the cushion, lift up on the cushion. There are two positions in which the raised
cushion can be set. To set the cushion in the first raised position, lift the cushion two-thirds of
the way to vertical and then allow it to slide back down slightly until you feel it lock into
position. To raise the cushion to the fully raised position, lift the cushion all the way up to
vertical and then allow it to move back slightly until it locks into place. To lower the cushion
from either raised position lift up on the sonographer cutout cushion release lever (located
along the head-end of the cushion) and then lower the cushion.
Cardiac Scanning Cutout
The cardiac drop-down cushion can be released by pressing the yellow release handle which can
be found toward the lower end of the Fowler back section on each side of the table.
The cushion can be returned from either side of the table. From the right side you will find a
handle located toward the head end of the table. By pressing this handle down, the cardiac
cushion will return to level. From the left side of the table, simply push the cushion back up to
