PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:
To prevent the possibility of electrocution, ensure that the rear electrodes are
not in contact with the patient while device is connected to any peripheral device.
WARNING:
The following precautions need to be taken when a defibrillator is used on a
patient:
•
Do not touch the patient during defibrillation.
•
Do not touch the defibrillator’s paddle-electrode surface when discharging the
defibrillator.
•
Keep defibrillator electrodes well clear of other electrodes or metal parts in contact
with the patient.
•
If a person is touching the patient, bed, or any conductive material in contact with the
patient during defibrillation, the delivered energy may be partially discharged through
that person. Make sure persons stand away from the patient, bed, and other
conductive material before discharging the defibrillator.

WARNING:
Batteries and other disposables used in conjunction with this device must be
disposed of in accordance with the national requirements in the country of use.
CAUTION:
A 6L Biolog Patient cable or 12L Biolog patient cable is required to be used in
conjunction with the BIOLOG 3000
i
in order to provide protection against the effect of the
discharge of a cardiac defibrillator and against high frequency burns.
Conductive parts of electrodes and associated connectors, including the neutral electrode,
should not contact other conductive parts including earth.
The BIOLOG 3000
i
is not intended to be sterilized or used in a sterile environment and
therefore is not suitable for direct cardiac application.
The BIOLOG 3000
i
is not suitable for use with flammable anaesthetics and offers no
water ingress protection.
Inspect the BIOLOG 3000
i
electrocardiograph and 6L Biolog Patient Cable or 12L Biolog
patient cable regularly for signs of mechanical damage, particularly around patient leads.
To verify correct operation of the electrocardiograph, connect all patient leads to a patient
and check that there is a valid ECG signal on every lead by viewing the signal on the
BIOLOG 3000
i
screen.
CAUTION:
Federal law in U.S.A. restricts this device to the sale by or on the order of a
physician.
CAUTION:
An authorized QRS Diagnostic, LLC service agent must service this device.
