Precautions
CAUTION: Do not place the SpO
2
sensor on an extremity with an
invasive catheter or blood pressure cuff in place.
CAUTION: The use of portable and mobile RF communications
equipment, in the proximity of the Duo, can affect the
performance of this monitor.
CAUTION: Use only Mindray DS accessories with this product. For a
comprehensive listing of Duo Accessories refer to section
4.0, “Accessories.”
CAUTION: The patient size selection should be matched to the actual
patient before monitoring begins.
CAUTION: Tissue damage or inaccurate measurement may be caused
by incorrect SpO
2
sensor application or use, such as
wrapping too tightly, applying supplemental tape, failing to
inspect the sensor site periodically or failing to position
appropriately. Carefully read the SpO
2
sensor directions
and all precautionary information before use.
CAUTION: Excessive ambient light may cause inaccurate SpO
2
measurements. In such cases, cover the sensor site with
opaque material.
CAUTION: The cuff must be properly applied to the patient's limb
before inflating. If it is inflated without being securely
wrapped, damage to the cuff can result.
CAUTION: This product contains natural rubber latex which may cause
allergic reactions. This refers specifically to the large adult
gray blood pressure cuff (0998-00-0003-35).
