Frightening! – TEE probe with fine wire protruding

Today’s post is a frightening one. We received a TEE/TOE probe in for repair. Protruding from the side of the bending rubber section was a very fine piece of stainless steel wire which had broken away from the articulation wires. The thought of this being inserted into somebody’s esophagus with this protruding from the side is quite frightening!
