Supplement for Infinity Delta Series Software
WARNING
The etCO2, inCO2, and RRc alarms do not activate until the second breath is detected after
turning on the monitor or discharging a patient.
WARNING
RRc apnea alarms are NOT reported if the setting RRc Apnea Time is set to OFF in the etCO2
setup menu and the RRc alarm feature is deactivated. To generate RRc apnea alarms, activate
the RRc alarms and select an RRc apnea time.
WARNING
To minimize the risk of patient strangulation, carefully position and secure sensor cables.
WARNING
Patient monitors that measure CO2, anesthetic agents, and/or respiratory mechanics are not
intended to be used as an apnea monitor and/or recording device. While these products provide
an apnea alarm, that alarm condition is initiated based on the elapsed time since the last breath
was detected. Clinical diagnosis of a true apneic event, however, requires multiple physiological
signals.
WARNING
In an ambient temperature of 104 degrees F (40 degrees C), the CO2 mainstream sensor reaches
a surface temperature of 110 degrees F (43 degrees C).
WARNING
Do not use the CO2 mainstream sensor in an explosive or oxygen-enriched environment
(atmosphere) (100% oxygen is allowed in the measuring cuvette). Fire hazard!
WARNING
Risk of device failure and/or patient injury and user injury
Magnetic fields can negatively influence the correct functioning of the medical device and
therefore endanger the patient or user.
Do not use the medical device near magnetic resonance imagers (MRI, NMR, NMI).
WARNING
Do not use any explosive anesthetic agents (e.g., ether or cyclopropane). Fire hazard!
CAUTION
Leaks in the breathing circuit (for example, an uncuffed endotracheal tube or a damaged cuvette) may
significantly affect CO
2 measurement values.
CAUTION
To avoid accidental disconnections, do not apply excessive tension to any sensor cable.
