This equipment is not intended for direct cardiac application.
Make sure the conductive parts of electrodes and associated connectors for
applied parts, including the neutral electrode, should not contact any other
conductive parts including earth.
Use defibrillation-proof ECG cables during defibrillation.
Do not touch the patient or metal devices connected to the patient during
defibrillation.
To reduce the hazard of burns during high-frequency surgical procedure,
ensure that the monitor’s cables and transducers never come into contact with
the electrosurgery unit (ESU).
To reduce the hazard of burns during use of high-frequency surgical unit
(ESU), the ECG electrodes should not be located between the surgical site and
the ESU return electrode.
