51st DaY of AttAchMent

For the whole entire day, i did 2 repairs with Lee Chong which is the rigid laryngoscope and colour video printer from Sony, UP-2300P. I also did preventive maintenance of ISU as the staff nurse from day surgery found it so we left with single digit amount of devices.

Firstly, let's talk about rigid laryngoscope. It looks similar as opthalmoscope/otoscope. However, the slight difference is their purposes. When i say " laryngoscope", i believe most of you will able to guess the purpose of it since the name of it gives you a hint. laryn means throat (larynx). It has a light source which turns on due to a mechanism of lever pressing the stopper onto the light blub in a spring. The problem was the light is unable to light up for a while or do not work at all. We found that the contact between the lever and the stopper is not good so we just push the lamp and the stopper inner a bit and it works.

Secondly, staff nurse from Operation Theatre Level 2 called as the colour video printer is unable to print automatically and manually. Initially, we thought it is the wrong connection between the camera endoscopy and colour video printer. Our assumption was wrong so i got to go back and took the service manual. We took approximately an hour to analyze the problem and the cause of it. Someone mingled with the setting of the printer so we changed the back to the original setting and it works.
