2.3 Important Notes for Safety
Patient Number
The monitor can only be applied to one patient at one time.
Interference
Do not use mobile phone in the vicinity of the monitor. High level of
electromagnetic radiation emitted from such devices may result in strong
interference with the monitor performance.
Protection against ingress of liquid
To avoid electric shock or device malfunction, liquids must not be allowed
to enter the device. If liquids have entered the device, take it out of service
and have it checked by a service technician before it is used again.
Accuracy
If the accuracy of any value displayed on the monitor or printed on a
printout paper is questionable, determine the patient’s vital signs by
alternative means. Verify that the equipment is working correctly.
Alarm
Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring.
Adjustment of alarm volume to a low level or off during patient monitoring
may result in a hazard to the patient. Remember that the most reliable method
of patient monitoring combines close personal surveillance and correct
operation of monitor.
The functions of the alarm system for monitoring the patient must be
verified at regular intervals.
Before Use
Before putting the system into operation, please visually inspect all
connecting cables for signs of damage. Damaged cables and connectors must
be replaced immediately.
Before using the system, the operator must verify that it is in correct
working order and operating condition.
Periodically, and whenever the integrity of the product is in doubt, test all
functions.
Cables
Route all cables away from patient’s throat to avoid possible strangulation.
