Laser Fibre Compatibility Checklist: Bare, Radial and Conical

Match the accessory to a specific system

A bare, radial, or conical fibre should be assessed against the exact laser model and approved procedure workflow. Names of fibre types are not enough to establish compatibility. Ask for the manufacturer's compatible accessory information and compare it with the console configuration and instructions for use.

The clinical lead should define the delivery approach; biomedical engineering can verify technical compatibility; procurement can confirm that the correct item can be ordered repeatedly.

Record the details that prevent ordering errors

Create one approved item record for each fibre configuration used by the facility.

• •Laser model, wavelength configuration, connector type, and compatible fibre item code.
• •Fibre type and supplied dimensions as stated in the product documentation.
• •Packaging, single-use or reuse instructions, storage conditions, lot identification, and expiry where applicable.
• •Clinical owner, approved workflow, required stock level, supplier contact, and reorder lead time.

Test the receiving and replenishment process

Before the first scheduled procedure, confirm who checks the delivered item against the approved code, records its lot or serial details, and handles a mismatch. A short receiving checklist can protect the workflow from a last-minute substitution.

Canara Surgicals can discuss bare, radial, and conical fibre requirements for compatible diode laser systems with hospitals and clinics in Mumbai and India.
