System Overview
Warning
Elevated levels of blood substances including irregular cell
morphologies, protein levels, plasma free hemoglobin and
bilirubin may interfere with blood measurements. Independent
external blood gas and blood chemistry analysis is required for
accurate determination of all measured parameters needed to
guide therapeutic decisions.
Independent external blood gas and blood chemistry analysis is
required for accurate determination of all measured parameters
needed to guide therapeutic decisions whenever intravascular
dyes are administered or when dyshemoglobins or elevated
bilirubin levels are present.
Use caution when administering novel pharmacological agents
when the user is unfamiliar with the potential effect of such
agents on the CDI sensors.
Do not attempt in vivo recalibration expecting to re-align
values affected by interference due to intravascular dyes or
pharmacological agents; the interference may be prolonged
resulting in continuing inaccuracies.
Caution
Do not use a CDI Shunt Sensor after the lot number expiration date
printed on the package label. Using a CDI Shunt Sensor after its
lot number expiration date can result in inaccurate performance.
Do not use a CDI Shunt Sensor if the foil pouch it is packaged
in has been damaged. A damaged foil pouch can result in
inaccurate performance.
This product contains Germall II in the calibration uid. A potential
byproduct of Germall II may be formaldehyde. Exposure may
cause adverse reactions in patients with formaldehyde sensitivity.
