Important Patient and Safety Information
ST80i Stress Test System Instructions for Use ix
– Class I equipment
– Type CF applied parts
– Ordinary equipment
– Not suitable for use in the presence of flammable anesthetics
– Continuous operation
 Philips will make available on request circuit diagrams, component part lists, descriptions,
calibration instructions, or other information which will assist the user’s appropriately
qualified technical personnel to repair those parts of equipment which are designated by
the manufacturer as repairable.
 Because of its sampling characteristics and the asynchronism between sample rate and
signal rate, ST80i may produce a noticeable modulating effect from one cycle to the next,
particularly in pediatric recordings.
 ST80i can download ECGs via the TraceMasterVue server for review.
Safety Information for the Medical Isolation Transformer
Warning Statements about the Medical Isolation Transformer
WARNING Failure to follow these warnings could affect both patient and operator safety.
 Use of this transformer with equipment other than originally supplied, or surpassing the
ratings, may cause damage, fire, or injury.
 When using additional peripheral equipment powered from an electrical source other than
the isolation transformer, the combination is considered to be a medical system. It is the
responsibility of the operator to comply with IEC 60601-1-1 and test the medical system
according to the requirements. For additional information, contact Philips.
 All components (whether supplied by Philips or purchased from another source) attached
to the ST80i PC, including the PC, printer, monitor, and optional blood pressure monitor,
must be plugged into a medical isolation transformer to ensure the system is properly
grounded. However, do not plug a laser printer into the isolation transformer provided
with ST80i. Power for the laser printer must be provided from another source that
complies with your facility’s safety requirements or IEC 60601-1.
Caution Statements about the Medical Isolation Transformer
CAUTION Caution statements describe conditions or actions that may result in damage to equipment or
software.
 Before connecting your equipment to the isolation transformer, make sure the voltage
selector (located above the power cord) matches the line voltage.
