WARNING
For operator and patient safety, peripheral equipment and
accessories that can come in direct patient contact must comply with all
applicable safety, EMC, and regulatory requirements.
WARNING
Cross-contamination or nosocomial infection risk. Clean and
disinfect the ECG module on a routine basis according to your facility's
protocols and standards or local regulations. Thorough hand-washing
before and after contact with patients greatly reduces the risk of cross-
contamination and nosocomial infection.
WARNING
For patient safety, do not use the device or any accessory
during MRI scanning. Induced current could cause burns.
WARNING
Do not pause or turn off an audible alarm if the patient safety
might be compromised.
CAUTION
United States Federal law restricts this equipment to sale,
distribution, or use by or on the order of a physician or licensed healthcare
professional.
CAUTION
Electromagnetic interference risk. The equipment complies
with applicable domestic and international standards for electromagnetic
interference. These standards are intended to minimize medical equipment
electromagnetic interference. Although the Connex device and ECG
module are not expected to present problems to other compliant
equipment or be affected by other compliant devices, interference issues
still may occur. As a precaution, avoid using the equipment in close
proximity to other equipment. In the event that equipment interference is
observed, relocate the equipment as necessary or consult manufacturer's
directions for use.
CAUTION
Keep the Connex device outside of MRI suites and any areas
marked for high magnetic or electric field strength.
