2. Safety Information
This chapter provides important safety information for using Butterfly iQ™ and includes a list of warning and caution
messages. This user manual is accessible from the Butterfly iQ™ App and through the website support.butterflynet-
work.com.
Safety Conventions
WARNING!
Conditions, hazards, or unsafe practices that may result in serious personal injury or death.
CAUTION:
Conditions, hazards, or unsafe practices that may result in minor personal injury, damage to the
device, or loss of data.
This user manual is intended to assist in the safe and effective operation of Butterfly iQ™. It is important that all
users review and understand all instructions in this user manual before operating the device, paying careful attention
to the warnings and cautions throughout the manual. The following conventions are used throughout this manual to
highlight safety concerns:
Ultrasound Benefits and Risks
Ultrasound is widely used because it provides many clinical benefits to the patient and has an excellent safety re-
cord. Ultrasound imaging has been used for over twenty years and there have been no known long-term negative
side effects associated with this technology.
Ultrasound Benefits
• Multiple diagnostic uses
• Immediate results
• Cost-effectiveness
• Portability
• Safety record
Ultrasound Risks
Ultrasonic waves can heat the tissues slightly. It is normal that the probe may feel warm to the touch while charging.
If you remove the probe from the charging pad before or immediately after charging is complete, it is recommended
that you allow the probe to cool down before use. Since the system limits patient contact temperature and will not
scan at or above 43°C (109°F), allowing the probe to cool down before use will optimize scan time performance.

Butterfly iQ™ Safety
WARNINGS!
• The Butterfly iQ™ is intended for use by competent users capable of interpreting image quality,
diagnosis, and clinical utility of the system.
• Movement of the patient during scanning may impact results. User should exercise clinical
judgement in the interpretation of results.
• Do not use Butterfly iQ™ until the materials present in this manual have been reviewed and fully
understood. Do not operate Butterfly iQ™ for purposes other than intended in this manual.
• Do not operate Butterfly iQ™ improperly. Failure to do so may result in serious personal injury
or death.
Basic Safety/Usage Environment
WARNING!
Butterfly iQ™ is classified as MR UNsafe and may pose unacceptable risks to the patient, medical
staff, or other persons within the MR environment.
Butterfly iQ™ Safety
8 Safety Information

WARNINGS!
• Use only cables, probes, chargers, and accessories specified for use with Butterfly iQ™. Substi-
tution of non-approved accessories may cause the system to perform improperly or may cause
injury to the patient or operator.
• If the probe seems unusually hot, produces an odor or smoke, or leaks, stop use immediately.
Unplug the probe from the mobile device or disconnect it from the wireless charger (if applica-
ble). Contact Support at: suppor[email protected]
• Do not use Butterfly iQ™ in the presence of flammable gases or anesthetics. Doing so can re-
sult in a possible fire or explosion.
• Butterfly iQ™ has not been evaluated or approved for use in hazardous locations as defined in
the National Electric Code standard. In compliance with IEC classification, the Butterfly iQ™ is
not to be used in the presence of flammable substances/air mixtures.
• Do not use the Butterfly iQ™ Application on a mobile device that does not meet minimum re-
quirements. Using the Butterfly iQ™ Application on a mobile device that does not meet the mini-
mum requirements may affect performance and image quality, possibly resulting in misdiagno-
sis.
• Spilling fluids into the system may damage it or present a fire or shock hazard. Do not allow
fluids to enter the device.
• Store only within the range of environmental conditions specified in the technical specifications.
• Dangerous high voltages and currents are present. There are no user-serviceable parts. Do not
open, remove covers, or attempt repair.
• Portable and mobile radio-frequency (RF) communications equipment can affect Medical Elec-
trical Equipment.
• Internet access is required to view the user manual and Butterfly support portal. If you intend to
use Butterfly iQ™ without an internet connection download the user manual locally by visiting
support.butterflynetwork.com.
• Use of damaged equipment or accessories may cause the device to perform improperly and/or
result in injury to the patient or operator. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
• No modification is allowed. Do not modify cables, probes, chargers, or accessories specified for
use with Butterfly iQ™. Modification to equipment may cause the system to perform improperly
or may cause injury to the patient or operator.
CAUTIONS!
• Cardiac rhythm disturbances during cardiac studies using gas ultrasound contrast agents have
been observed in the diagnostic range of Mechanical Index (MI) values. See the specific pack-
age insert for the contrast agent being used for further details.
• Butterfly Cloud enables remote viewing of ultrasound images on a variety of platforms and in
uncontrolled environments (e.g., ambient lighting). Clinician discretion on the appropriate use of
images must be applied.
• Only trained operators should use the instrument for needle placement.
Basic Safety/Usage Environment
Safety Information 9

Electrical Safety
WARNINGS!
• Before use, carefully inspect the probe. Always inspect the probe before and after cleaning, dis-
infection, or use. Check the lens face, cable, housing, seams, and connector for signs of dam-
age such as cracks, chips, abrasions, or leaks. To avoid the risk of electrical hazards, do not use
the probe if there is any sign of damage.
• Dropping the probe may cause damage. Always inspect the probe before and after cleaning,
disinfection, or use. Check the lens face, cable, housing, seams, and connector for signs of
damage such as cracks, chips, abrasions, or leaks. To avoid the risk of electrical hazards, do
not use the probe if there is any sign of damage.
• Comply with IEC 60601-1 when using additional equipment along with the ultrasound device.
• Use of accessories, probes, and cables other than those specified or provided by the manufac-
turer of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased elec-
tromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.
• Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it
could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equip-
ment should be observed to verify that they are operating normally.
• Electrical shock to the patient or operator may result if voltages exceeding IEC 60601-1 for pa-
tient-applied parts are exceeded.
• The probe is designed to remain sealed. Do not attempt to open the probe or tamper with the
device internals, including the battery. Doing so may cause injury to the patient or operator.
• Do not immerse probe beyond specified levels. Immersion beyond specified levels may result in
electrical shock.
WARNINGS!
• Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and ex-
ternal antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the Butterfly
iQ™, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the perform-
ance of this equipment could result.
CAUTIONS!
• Notifications and alerts from other third-party applications running on the mobile device may in-
terfere with the study.
• The emissions characteristics of this equipment make it suitable for use in industrial areas and
hospitals (CISPR 11 Group 1 Class A). If this equipment is used in a residential environment
(for which CISPR 11 Class B is normally required), this equipment might not offer adequate pro-
tection to radio- frequency communication services. The user might need to take mitigation
measures, such as relocating or re-orientating the equipment.
