WARNING
MIXING UP RECORDINGS –The patient’s life or health may be put at
risk if the patient is assigned a different patient’s examination, thus
resulting in an incorrectly assigned diagnosis.
Take special care to always select the correct examination and the
correct patient. To ensure that a recording is not assigned to the
wrong patient, always enter the patient’s ID into the recording me-
dium or write the patient’s ID on it before starting the recording.
WARNING
ELECTROSURGERY – There is a risk of burns and injury to the patient.
If an electrosurgery device is used, disconnect the ECG cable from the
recorder.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD – Electrical sparks can cause explosions in the
presence of certain gases.
Do not use device in an oxygen-enriched environment or around
other flammable or explosive gases.
Establish whether the patient is liable to be in such an environment,
possibly for job-related reasons.
WARNING
CABLES – Cables present a possible strangulation hazard.
To avoid possible strangulation, route all cables away from patient's
throat. Use short version of cables for pediatric patients.
WARNING
CONDUCTIVITY – Electric shock or device malfunction may occur if
electrodes contact conductive materials.
Keep the conductive parts of lead electrodes and associated parts
away from other conductive parts, including earth. Also make sure
that no contact to other conductive parts is possible if the electrodes
loosen during recording.
