Warning: Do not user T-adapter with infants, as this adds 7ml dead space to the patient
ciruit.
Warning: Do not use the ISA gas analyzer with metered-dose inhalers or nebulized
medications as this may clog the bacteria filter.
Warning: Since a successful zeroing requires the presence of ambient Air(21% O
2
and 0%
CO
2
), ensure that the ISA is placed in a well ventilated place. Avoid breathing
near the ISA sidestream gas analyzer before or during the zeroing procedure.
Warning: Never sterilize or immerse the ISA sidestream gas analyzer in liquid.
Warning: The ISA sidestream gas analyzer is intended only as an adjunct in patient
assessment. It must be used in conjunction with other assessments of
clinical signs and symptoms.
Warning: Measurements can be affected by mobile and portable RF communications
equipment. Make sure that the ISA sidestream gas analyzer is used in the
electromagnetic environment specified in this manual.
Warning: Replace the sampling line if the sampling line input connector starts flashing
red, or the medical backboard device displays a “Check sampling line”
message.
Warning: No modification of this equipment is allowed without authorization of the
manufacturer. If this equipment is modified, appropriate inspection and testing
must be conducted to ensure continued safe operation.
Warning: The ISA sidestream gas analyzer is not designed are not designed for MRI
environments.
Warning: During MRI scanning, ISA must be placed outside the MRI suite.
Warning: Use of high frequency electrosurgical equipment in the vicinity of the
ISA/medical backboard device may produce interference and cause incorrect
measurements.
Warning: Do not apply negative pressure to remove condensed water from the
Nomoline Family sampling line.
Warning: Too strong positive or negative pressure in the patient circuit might affect the
sample flow.
Warning: Strong scavenging suction pressure might affect the sample flow.
Warning: Exhaust gases should be returned to the patient circuit or to a scavenging
system.
Warning: Due to the risk of patient cross-infection, always use a bacteria filter on the
exhaust port side if sampled gas is intended to be re-breathed.
