Performance Warnings and Cautions
WARNING: Root should not be used as the sole basis for medical decisions. It must be used in
conjunction with clinical signs and symptoms.
WARNING: Root may be used during defibrillation. This may affect the accuracy or
availability of the parameters and measurements.
WARNING: Root may be used during electrocautery. This may affect the accuracy or
availability of the parameters and measurements.
WARNING: Wireless communication of alarms to a secondary monitoring station should not
be relied upon as a primary alarm.
WARNING: Do not place the Root against a surface that may cause the alarm to be muffled.
WARNING: Radical-7 may not fully charge in a high ambient temperature environment.
WARNING: Always ensure settings including alarms are appropriate for each patient prior to
use.
WARNING: When using multiple devices in the same or similar environment, use of the same
patient profile (including the same alarm presets) to avoid confusion that can lead to patient
harm.
CAUTION: Ensure the speaker is not covered.
CAUTION: Before using Root under high intensity surgical lights, confirm that the display
settings allow for clear display of measurements.
CAUTION: Do not connect to an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch or dimmer.
CAUTION: Do not place the Root on electrical equipment that may affect the device,
preventing it from working properly.
CAUTION: Failure to charge Root promptly after a Low Battery alarm may result in the device
shutting down.
CAUTION: To minimize radio interference, other electrical equipment that emits radio
frequency transmissions should not be in close proximity to Root.
CAUTION: If the Radical-7 or Radius-7 stops communicating with Root, parameters and
measurements will not show on the Root; however, this will not affect Radical-7's or
Radius-7's ability to monitor the patient.
CAUTION: In order to establish and maintain Root’s minimum Quality of Service, the
following network specifications should be met before and after installation:
• Wired Network Connection
During Ping Test, passing result if:
a. At least 98% of packets have latency ≤ 30 milliseconds, and
b. No more than 2 % packets loss.
• Wireless Network Connection
During Ping Test, passing result if:
a. At least 98% of packets have latency ≤ 100 milliseconds,
b. No more than 2 % packets loss, and
c. Primary access point signal strength at least -67 dBm.
