Instructions for Use Fabius MRI SW 3.n
Installing Vaporizers
Install vaporizers as directed in the appropriate
Instructions for Use supplied with the vaporizers
available for use with the Fabius MRI.
The anesthetic vaporizer used with the anesthesia
workstation shall comply with ISO 8835-4.
The anesthesia workstation must be used with
anesthetic gas monitoring complying with
ISO 21647, if an anesthetic vaporizer is used.
WARNING
Risk of injury
Vaporizers can be moved by magnetic attrac-
tion. Use only anesthetic delivery systems
and accessories designed for use in magnetic
fields.
WARNING
For operation in magnetic fields the combina-
tion of vaporizers, anesthesia workstation,
and MRI scanner must be tested by experts
(trained and factory authorized technical ser-
vice representatives for anesthetic machines
and MRI scanners) prior the first use to ensure
proper vaporizer and interface function in the
specific magnetic fields. Otherwise uncon-
trolled concentrations, leakage, and/or mal-
function of the interlock system may occur.
The testing has to take into consideration all
positions of the anesthesia workstation,
including the vaporizer, in which it will operate
in the MRI environment during daily use. Addi-
tionally, it is necessary to check if the imaging
of the MRI scanner is adversely affected by
the vaporizer and the anesthesia workstation.
WARNING
Risk of spillage or mix-up
Use only suitable adapters for filling and emp-
tying the vaporizer.
WARNING
Do not use any type of Desflurane vaporizer in
the MRI environment. In an MR environment
functionality of the Desflurane vaporizer will
be compromised.
