READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING S88X
The available voltage and current from this Stimulator may, under some
conditions, be sufficient to be lethal or cause burns, particularly with
high duration and/or high voltage settings.
It is the responsibility of the investigator/user, to determine for any given
application, the maximum safe levels of stimulation, and assure that such
stimulation levels will not be exceeded. In many applications, the mechanisms of
safe stimulation are not completely understood.
Parameters that affect safe stimulation levels are:
• Pulse Repetition Rate
• Pulse Duration
• Pulse Duty Cycle
• Voltage and/or Current Intensity
• Biphasic vs Monophasic Operation
• Total Time Exposure
• Electrode Impedance, Geometry, Area and Material
The S88X OUTPUT is NOT ISOLATED. Do not use on humans.
CONSULT GRASS IF YOU HAVE ANY CONCERNS ABOUT SAFE APPLICATION,
PARTICULARLY WHEN USED WITH OTHER EQUIPMENT.
NATUS MEDICAL INCORPORATED WAIVES THE RESPONSIBILITY
WHATSOEVER FOR ANY INJURIES INCURRED TO THE OPERATOR OF THIS
INSTRUMENT, OR TO ANY ANIMAL OR HUMAN SUBJECT AS A RESULT OF THE
