2.8 In Case of Emergency
In chapter 2.6 Dangers Resulting from Laser Operation, dangers are listed which could occur
during laser operation. The risk of an emergency is lowered to a minimum by the technical design
of the system and the organizational measures taken by the manufacturer (refer to chapter 2.4
Manufacturer’s Responsibility).
If a danger for the service personnel and the patient during the laser operation should arise
despite the protective measures of the manufacturer, the following steps have to be taken:
Gas leak (laser operating gas)
o Open the windows.
o Shut down the laser system and switch off the device using the emergency stop switch.
o All personnel must leave the room.
o Inform the service department of SCHWIND eye-tech-solutions or the customer service
of your distributor (see Service Hotline).
Other dangerous situations
o Switch off the laser system using the emergency stop switch.
o Bring the patients and the service personnel in a safe environment.
o Inform the service department of SCHWIND eye-tech-solutions or the customer service
of your distributor (see Service Hotline).
Accident situation
In the case of a work accident resulting in injury to the eye or skin from laser radiation of a patient
or the service personnel, after carrying out any medical care, a medical professional must
perform a thorough examination.
An accident notice is to be submitted to the responsible supervisory authority. A copy of this
message is to be sent to SCHWIND eye-tech-solutions GmbH. You will find a sample of the
damage report in your Medical Apparatus Book in chapter 9.
