WARNINGS
RATE METERS — Keep pacemaker patients under close
observation. Rate meters may continue to count the pacemaker
rate during cardiac arrest and some arrhythmias. Therefore, do
not rely entirely on rate meter alarms.
SITE REQUIREMENTS — For safety reasons, all connectors
for patient cables and sensor leads (with the exception of
temperature) are designed to prevent inadvertent
disconnection, should someone pull on them. Do not route
cables in a way that they may present a stumbling hazard. For
devices installed above the patient, adequate precautions must
be taken to prevent them from dropping on the patient.
