Protection against heart defibrillation shock depends on using the appropriate cables.
The conductive parts of sensors and connectors should not contact other conductive
parts, including earth.
To minimize the risk of patient burns from the neutral electrode for HF surgery, do not
put the ANI sensors between the surgical site and the electrosurgical unit's return
electrode.
Not place the ANI sensors between defibrillator paddles when they are use on a
patient connected to the ANI MOC-9.
Observe universal precautions to prevent contact with blood or other potentially
infectious materials. Contaminated materials must be handled in accordance with the
facility's applicable health and safety regulations.
Never modify the ANI MOC-9 when open.
Staff should avoid touching simultaneously patient and ANI MOC-9.
The patient should not be able to reach the equipment directly or indirectly; avoid for
instance placing equipment on top of another equipment with a metal casing.
In operating rooms, the ANI MOC-9 must be placed outside the explosion hazard
zone.
Reusing a sensor already used on another patient could lead to a risk of cross-
contamination.
If the patient develops a skin reaction or other unusual symptoms, remove the
sensors. It is important to take particular care with patients suffering from
dermatological problems.
