Appendix A - Cleaning and
Maintenance
WARNING: Shock hazard. Patient or operator injury could result from worn
cabling or unit disassembly. To avoid exposure to potentially hazardous voltages,
DO NOT disassemble the Intego™ PET Infusion System in any way. Worn cabling
also creates hazards. If any worn or damaged cables are detected, DO NOT use the
system. Contact MEDRAD for service or replacement.
WARNING: Severe operator injury can occur if care is not taken when opening
or closing the lids over the Shielded Chamber or the Patient Administration Set
compartment. Be certain that all fingers are clear before opening or closing the
Shielded Chamber Lid or the PAS Compartment Cover.
WARNING: Radiation exposure hazard. The Intego™ PET Infusion System may
contain radioactive materials. Do not reach under cart while the system contains
activity. Do not remove access panels while system contains activity.
WARNING: Radiation exposure hazard. Radiation activity exposure is increased
once the Access Cap is removed. The user should avoid working directly over the
open Vial Shield to minimize exposure.
WARNING: Radiation exposure hazard. Using the Shielded Chamber Lid as a
work space may expose the operator to excess radiation.
Do not use the Shielded
Chamber Lid as a work space while there are
radioactive materials present within the
Intego™ PET Infusion System
. Using the Shielded Chamber Lid as a work space or
placing items on the Shielded Chamber Lid while it is open may damage the Shielded
Chamber Lid, hampering its ability to provide an adequate radiation shield.
WARNING: Radiation exposure hazard.
18
F-FDG or
18
F-NaF emit gamma
radiation. Operator should exercise extreme caution when handling
radiopharmaceuticals. Doses may exceed maximum permissible dose if appropriate
precautions are not properly exercised. Follow all individual facility guidelines for the
handling and disposal of radioactive materials. DO NOT open the Shielded Chamber
without first taking radiation precautions per facility procedures.
WARNING: Puncture hazard. The SAS contains needles. To prevent injury, take
care when handling the SAS to control the needles. Dispose of the needles per
individual facility guidelines.
WARNING: Operator injury. Batteries are not user replaceable and must be
replaced by MEDRAD personnel. Contact MEDRAD service.
CAUTION: Do not remove any covers or disassemble the Intego™ PET Infusion
System. Periodically inspect for loose or frayed cables, loose covers, cracks, dents,
or loose hardware. Contact MEDRAD for repairs.
