Danger of Electrical Shock!
A connection between the patient and a personal computer can result in risks for the patient from
electric current. Consider, therefore, these safety references:
– Use only CE marked electrical equipment!
– Install a galvanic isolator to insulate the connection between the personal computer and all
connected medical equipment (e.g. fibre optic cable or certified video isolator)!
– Set up the personal computer outside the patient's vicinity (1.5 m/4.9 ft.)!
Use only CE marked galvanic isolators or medical devices appropriate under
EN/IEC 60601-1 and EN/IEC 60601-1-1!
