Warning! The neoBLUE compact device should be used only by
appropriately trained personnel and under the direction of qualified medical
personnel familiar with currently known risks and benefits of infant
phototherapy equipment use.
Warning! Select only infants for whom phototherapy has been
prescribed.
Warning! The intensity level and duration of treatment should be
prescribed by the physician for each patient.
Warning! Intensive phototherapy (>30 µW/cm
2
/nm), may not be
appropriate for all infants (i.e. preterm infants <1000g).
Warning! Maintain a minimum treatment distance of 35 cm (13.75 in)
between the light and infant for optimal uniformity.
Warning! Incorrect use of the light, or the use of parts and accessories
that are not manufactured or supplied by Natus Medical Incorporated, can
damage the light, and may cause injury to the patient and/or user.
Warning! Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can
affect medical electrical equipment.
Warning! Attachment of Arm with Pole Mount: When
attaching the light to any floor stand other than the neoBLUE compact
Rollstand, the user must validate that it conforms to Regulatory/Safety
Standards noted in Specifications (Section 8).
Warning! Attachment of Arm with Pole Mount: Ensure that
the pole mount is properly seated around the pole prior to use to
prevent slippage during use. Ensure that all screws and bolts are
secure prior to use.
Warning! Weight Limitations of Arm: The Arm has been
validated to hold the weight of the light enclosure only. Do not hang
anything from the Arm or power cord.
Warning! Placement directly on incubator: Confirm all suction cup
feet are fully seated on the top of the enclosure to prevent slippage. Position
the light in the center of the incubator top, not on an angle or side of the
incubator. When placing light enclosure directly on incubator, care must be
taken to ensure a safe operating environment. Secure power cord to
minimize risk of tripping.
