WARNING:
The NeoMed and MultiMed 12 pods are not intended for
use during electrosurgery. To protect patients from
burns, do not use these pods in an ESU environment.
For better performance and to reduce the hazard of
burns during surgery, always use accessories designed
for ESU environments.
To reduce the hazard of burns during surgery, keep the
sensor or transducer (ECG, temperature, pressure,
SpO
2
, BISx) and their associated cables away from the
surgical site, the electro-surgical unit return electrode,
and earth ground.
Always use a Dräger ESU block or MultiMed Plus OR
cable with compatible lead wires. Doing so reduces
ESU interference and protects the patient from burns
caused by ESU-induced current flowing through the
lead wires. For better performance, also set the ECG fil-
ter option to ESU.
Dräger recommends using the ESU block during
electrosurgery. If you do not have an ESU block or a
MultiMed Plus OR, use only Dräger blue ECG lead sets.
They help protect the patient from burns caused by
ESU-induced current flowing through the leads.
While the ESU block or the MultiMed Plus OR cable are
in use, impedance respiration monitoring is inoperative
and the detection of pacemaker spikes is degraded. If
pacemaker detection is enabled, the ESU interference
may be detected as pacemaker spike.
Dräger recommends the use of the MultiMed Plus OR
during electrosurgery only.
Do not use the MultiMed Plus OR cable with Dräger blue
ECG lead wires. Doing so, will degrade performance
which can result in inaccurate values.
NOTE:
Use SpO
2
instead of the ECG parameter to determine heart rate.
Use rectal temperature probe sheaths to cover internally placed temperature
sensors.
