Safety during Use
Even when, as pointed out above, the device complies with the
requirements of EN 60601-1-2, strong electromagnetic disturbances may
occur in the immediate vicinity of electrical motors, high-voltage power
lines, PCs, monitors and other – perhaps defective – electrical devices
which may cause the Tare key to be triggered unintentionally and may
sometimes impair the functioning of the device.
This kind of device malfunction should be considered as a possible cause if
the following is observed:
• The values displayed for contact force and application angle are set to
zero with the AcQBlate
®
FORCE ablation catheter connected, as long as
the Tare key has not been pressed.
• The device displays other inexplicable behavior.
Correct operation of the device can be restored with the following
miscellaneous measures:
• Switch off electronic device generating the disturbance.
• Remove the source of interference from the device.
• Switch the device on and off or break the electrical connection be-
tween the device and the source of the interference if this can be done
safely.
If the interference continues, contact Acutus Medical immediately.
