4 KOSMOS User Guide
To avoid the risk of electrical shock or injury, do not open the Kosmos
Bridge or Kosmos Torso enclosures for any reason. All internal
adjustments and replacements (such as the battery) need to be made by
a qualified KOSMOS technician.
To avoid the risk of electrical shock and fire hazard, inspect the power
supply, AC power cords, cables, and plugs on a regular basis to ensure
that they are not damaged.
The KOSMOS system, including the Kosmos ECG patient cable, is not
defibrillation proof. To prevent injury to the operator/bystander, Kosmos
Torso and the Kosmos ECG patient cable/leadwires must be removed
from patient contact before the application of a high-voltage
defibrillation pulse.
Before using KOSMOS for needle guidance procedures, you must have
training in the applicable interventional procedures in addition to
training in the use of ultrasound imaging for needle guidance. Well
known limitations of ultrasound physics may lead to an inability to
visualize the needle or differentiate the needle from acoustic artifacts.
During fluid removal procedures of the pericardium, pleural cavity and
abdomen, the potential exists for serious complications including,
without limitation, the following: pneumothorax, arterial puncture,
cardiac puncture, or damage to other organs.
As a precaution, be careful when scanning near a wound or over a
dressing.
Do not use KOSMOS for intracavity imaging.
Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
KOSMOS uses Bluetooth wireless communication technology.
Keep power cords away from trafficked areas.
