Electrosurgery (ESU)
The monitor’s ECG function is protected against high-frequency
interference from defibrillators and electrosurgical units. The
ESU B
LOCK (optional) enhances the performance of the monitor
during electrosurgery and allows you to use standard ECG leads.
It reduces noise on ECG tracings and helps protect the patient
from burns.
STEPS: Using the ESU Block
1. Turn off pacemaker detection.
2. Plug the ESU block into the M
ULTIMED 5 pod as shown
above. If you are using a M
ULTIMED 6 pod, ignore the extra
V lead connection.
3. Plug a standard white ECG lead set into the ESU block as
shown. Do not use shielded blue leads with the ESU block.
4. Remove the ESU block to continuously monitor the patient.
