WARNING!
Serum sodium concentration
It is also necessary to monitor the concentration of sodium in the blood of the pa-
tient to prevent electrolyte disturbances. Monitoring of the concentration of so-
dium in the blood must be performed by the physician and is not performed or
supported by the system.
Precise balancing Try to collect all the fluid running out of the uterine cavity during the procedure
to achieve the most exact deficit value possible.
Scale capacity The scale can be loaded with a weight of up to 65 lbs (
~
30 kg). Weight above this
value triggers the Scale Overloaded/Check Scale message. Three audible warning
tones are emitted (See Chapter 9, Error and Warning Messages.)
CAUTION!
Ensure canisters hang freely and are not supported or in contact with anything;
otherwise, the deficit calculated is inaccurate.
NOTE!
Connect the scale to the pump before turning the system on to ensure the sys-
tem recognizes the scale.
