Warnings2 Warnings, Cautions, and Symbol Denitions
Closed Stopcock
Never inject with the stopcock closed.
DEHP (Phthalate)
Testing has shown that patient DEHP exposure for adults, children and infants
are below levels identied with potential risk of toxicity to reproduction.
Physicians should, however, weigh the benet against the risk when
considering use of this product in children and pregnant or nursing women.
Electrical Isolation
Connections to the patient are physically isolated from all CVi system power
sources. Follow facility procedures to ensure that there is no degradation of
CVi system electrical performance.
Emergency Shutdown
In the case of power blackouts, power brownouts, or voltage surges resulting in
abnormal system operation of any kind, immediately turn o the power switch
and detach from the patient.
Flammable Gases
Do not use the CVi system in the presence of ammable gases.
High Flow Rate Injections
Use extreme care when setting the ow rate. High ow rate injections can
cause patient injury or death. When a high ow rate injection is required,
select a pressure setting that does not exceed the catheter's pressure rating. e
maximum pressure rating of the CVi system is 1200 psi.
Injection System Setting
Check the CVi system settings before injection, and verify the appropriateness
of all injection parameters before injecting.
Mounting System
e use of non-approved mounting equipment can cause injury. Mount the
CVi system using only mounting assemblies approved by ACIST Medical
Systems.
Residual Contrast
Performing a saline ush following injection of contrast media will
dispense residual contrast from the patient line to the patient. If it is
suspected that such residue may adversely aect the patient, additional
injections of contrast or saline should not be performed.
Shock Hazard
Hazardous voltage exists within the CVi system. To avoid the risk of electric
shock, only trained, qualied personnel should service the CVi system.
Disconnect the system from the power source before service. Do not touch the
pins on the connectors or the cables.
