Konica Minolta SONIMAGE HS2 - 4.7 ECG Mode

168
The ECG function is a function that allows you to overlay the bright line of an ECG (electrocardiogram) on an ultra-
sound image, as well as synchronizing a B image with the bright line of the ECG for display.
To use this function, an optional "Reference Signal Unit" is required. Contact your service representative.
WARNING

• To prevent the electric shock, be sure to conrm the following cautions before use.
– There should be no abnormality on the ECG cable.
– ECG Unit should be connected to the specied ECG cable for the Reference Signal Unit.
• Connect the Reference Signal Unit to the system prior to attach the ECG electrodes to a patient. Also, avoid bringing
the patient with the ECG electrodes attached into contact with other conductive parts including grounding. Doing so
may cause an electric shock to the patient when the connector of the ECG cable touches the live part.
• Do not connect the Reference Signal Unit to any connector other than USB connector. Doing so may cause a break-
down.
• Do not let ECG electrodes to touch patient’s heart directly. Doing so may cause a cardiac arrest.
– ECG is Type BF applied part, and is not intended for direct cardiac application.
• Be sure to use the ECG cable that is included with the Reference Signal Unit.
• The selection and use of ECG electrodes are the responsibility of a user.
• Remove any ECG electrodes from your patient before using equipment such as an electric scalpel, high-frequency
therapy equipment, electric stimulator or electric debrillator. Also, make sure to keep any ultrasound transducer
away from the patient. The patient may get burned or receive an electric shock.

• ECG display is information that is used strictly for your reference. Do not use these waveforms and the display for
diagnostic or monitoring purposes. Also, note that the heart rate of your patient may not be displayed correctly if he/
she uses a pacemaker or an implantable electric stimulator, or has an arrhythmia.
• Before using the Reference Signal Unit, check cables for damage, and the connector for looseness.
• Clean the ECG cable periodically.
– Be careful not to get the ECG clips wet. ECG waveforms will not be correctly displayed.
– Do not soak the connector section in water. Simply wipe it clean with a dry cloth. Entry of water into the connector can
cause a failure.
– Wipe o󰀨 any dirt on the ECG cable, using a cloth dampened with a solution of isopropyl alcohol diluted down to 30 % to
50 % or 70 % of ethyl alcohol.
• Wipe o󰀨 any dirt on the ECG Unit and USB cable using a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent.
• The Reference Signal Unit is intended to connect to a medical device complying with IEC 60601-1. Connect the Ref-
erence Signal Unit only to this system.
