SECTION 1 SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
________________________________________________________________________
1-3
ENSURE THAT THE BISx DOES NOT COME INTO PROLONGED
CONTACT WITH PATIENT’S SKIN, AS IT MAY GENERATE HEAT AND
CAUSE DISCOMFORT.
THE CONDUCTIVE PARTS OF ELECTRODES OR SENSOR AND
CONNECTORS, INCLUDING THE NEUTRAL ELECTRODE, SHOULD NOT
CONTACT OTHER CONDUCTIVE PARTS, INCLUDING EARTH.
TO REDUCE THE HAZARD OF BURNS IN THE HIGH-FREQUENCY
SURGICAL NEUTRAL ELECTRODE CONNECTION, THE SENSOR OR
ELECTRODES SHOULD NOT BE LOCATED BETWEEN THE SURGICAL
SITE AND THE ELECTRO-SURGICAL UNIT RETURN ELECTRODE.
THE SENSOR MUST NOT BE LOCATED BETWEEN DEFIBRILLATOR
PADS WHEN A DEFIBRILLATOR IS USED ON A PATIENT CONNECTED
TO THE BIS VISTA SYSTEM.
TO MINIMIZE THE RISK OF PATIENT STRANGULATION, THE PATIENT
INTERFACE CABLE (PIC) MUST BE CAREFULLY PLACED AND SECURED.
SHOCK HAZARD: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DISCONNECT THE POWER
CORD WITH WET HANDS. MAKE CERTAIN THAT YOUR HANDS ARE
CLEAN AND DRY BEFORE TOUCHING THE POWER CORD.
CONSIDERATIONS WHEN USING ELECTRO CONVULSIVE THERAPY
(ECT) EQUIPMENT DURING BIS MONITORING:
SEPARATE ECT ELECTRODES FROM THE BIS SENSOR AS MUCH AS
POSSIBLE TO MINIMIZE THE EFFECT OF INTERFERENCE.
CERTAIN ECT EQUIPMENT MAY INTERFERE WITH THE PROPER
FUNCTION OF THE BIS MONITORING SYSTEM. CHECK FOR
COMPATIBILITY OF EQUIPMENT DURING PATIENT SETUP.
