F Safety Information
Warning
Failure to observe this safety information may result in injuries to the patient and
users.
General
• The corpuls
is not intended for operation in the vicinity of readily inflammable anaesthetics or
other flammable substances, particularly in an oxygen-rich environment.
• The corpuls
3
must not be stored or operated near a switched-on magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI) unit.
• The corpuls
3
must not be operated near ionising (radioactive) radiation intended for therapeutic
purposes.
• The corpuls
3
is not intended for operation in connection with a high frequency surgical device.
• To avoid stumbling or the patient, user or third parties being entangled in or strangled by cables,
they should be led around the patient, as all medical implements.
• When connecting intermediate cables and sensors, make sure there are no foreign objects
between the plug connections.
Alarm function
• Do not leave the patient unattended in the following cases:
- if the alarm function is deactivated or
- device is in defibrillation mode.
• In case of unsupervised monitoring of vital parameters, it is recommended that you monitor a
further vital parameter with another independent monitoring system.
• The option for monitoring measured values may be disabled when switching on the corpuls
3
(see chapter 7 Configuration, p. 137). Therefore make sure that the alarms are correctly
configured.
• Heart rate is only monitored when all electrodes of the ECG monitoring cable or the corPatch
electrodes are connected to the patient (see chapter 7 Configuration, p. 137).
• Check the settings of the alarm limits before each monitoring phase.
• Set the volume of the acoustic alarm so that it cannot be overheard in loud environments.
