Precautions for Safe Operation of Medical Telemetry
To operate the device correctly, read the following precautions carefully.
The medical institution (hereinafter referred as “Institution”) must decide the
telemetry installation plan for the medical institution in order to prevent
interference and interference between transmitters (telemetry based on
destination country’s radio law).
When using telemetry which requires zone location, the institution is to set
up the zones as an operation unit for each transmitter to prevent electronic
interference between telemetry throughout the medical institution.
When using telemetry which requires zone location, display and identify
each prepared zone in the equipment.
When laying receiver antenna for each transmitter, the institution has to be
examined so as not to generate electronic interference.
Based on the above examination result, the institution places each receiver
antenna as required.
In managing, be sure to follow the precautions below.
The institution appoints a person to manage the wireless channels for the
whole medical institution. And when using telemetry which requires zone
location, the institution nominates a person to manage the wireless
channels in each zone (a “Zone Manager”). However, when using such
telemetry in a local medical institution, one person can perform both
functions.
Select a telemetry manager who understands the characteristics and
functionality of telemetry systems, and is skilled in operating telemetry.
When installing telemetry, the Overall Manager and the Zone Manager
have to understand the precautions for use of the telemetry in advance.
The Overall Manager takes responsibility of wireless channel management
and transmitter storage for the whole medical institution by giving proper
instruction.
The Overall Manager creates a management log, list of wireless channels,
management status for the whole medical institution (hereinafter referred to
as the “management log”). When changing a wireless channel, register it in
the log and give proper instructions to the zone manager or to the user.
The Zone Manager assumes responsibility for managing the wireless
channels, storing, and managing telemetry.
The Zone Manager assigns the transmitter to the user, and provides
enough education for use inside the zone.
The telemetry user verifies operation of the transmitter/receiver before use.
The telemetry user, if using the telemetry in a zone location, follows the
instructions of the zone manager for the zone and gives instructions to the
patient if required.
When interference or breakdown occurs in telemetry communication, the
user is required to inform the zone manager and the overall manager of the
problems. The zone manager and overall manager are to deal with the
problem properly and/or contact their nearest Fukuda Denshi
representative for service.
