General information
2.1
Warnings
•
Federal (US) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed healthcare practi-
tioner.
•
The CNAP
®
Monitor 500 is not designed for intracardial use.
•
Do not connect the device's air connectors to an intravascular system!
•
Do not use the oscillometric cuff on limbs with vascular prostheses!
•
Keep the CNAP
®
Monitor 500 out of reach of children!
•
The CNAP
®
Monitor 500 is not fit for operation in potentially explosive surroundings, as may
arise from usage or storage of flammable anaesthetics, skin detergents or skin disinfectants. Al-
so, do not use the CNAP
®
Monitor 500 in a possibly combustible atmosphere (i.e. if the ambient
air contains more than 25% of oxygen or nitrous oxide gas).
•
The operator has to prevent prolonged impairment of the patient's blood circulation during the
measuring process by inspecting the concerned limbs regularly. This is particularly important in
the case of continuous blood pressure measurement. During normal use, the pressure in the
finger cuff will be the same as in the artery and therefore greater than normal venous pressure.
As a result, depending on variables like skin temperature, thickness, patient age, perfusion or
presenting state, venous congestion of the finger distal to the cuff may be observed which will
quickly subside with the discontinuation of monitoring (blue fingers). Check the monitoring area
frequently and discontinue the continuous blood pressure measurement and remove all air con-
nectors immediately in case of any signs of reduced blood circulation.
•
Do not use the compressed air supply valves with any devices of a third party manufacturer.
•
Each device is designed for the concurrent measurement of only one patient/test subject at a
time. Never measure two or more patients at the same time, applying only one device!
•
Please pay attention to the precautions regarding electromagnetic compatibility (see chapter
17.3 – Electromagnetic compatibility).
•
In perioperative settings, the CNAP
®
Monitor 500 is not to be used without additional ECG moni-
toring for independent patient monitoring.
•
Warnings regarding CNAP
®
-PPV/SVV are listed separately in chapter 11.1.
•
Warnings regarding CNAP
®
-HD are listed in chapter 12.1.
•
Sensors placed distally to the CNAP
®
double finger cuff (e.g. Pulse oximeter) may be affected by
a CNAP
®
measurement.
•
The forearm fixation strap, the upper arm cuffs and the CNAP
®
double finger cuff must not be
applied to injured or sore skin.
•
Blood pressure cuffs may not be applied to a limb with intravascular access, intravascular
therapy or arteriovenous shunt. A temporary interruption of the blood flow can result in patient
injury.
•
Whether a CNAP
®
measurement should be applied ipsilaterally to a mastectomy, must be eva-
luated by a physician as regards patient safety.
•
The CNAP
®
Monitor and its components must not be modified without the explicit permission of
the manufacturer.
•
Prior to service activities carried out on the CNAP
®
Monitor or its components make sure that no
measurement is active.
2.2
Precautions
2.2.1
General precautions
•
The CNAP
®
Monitor 500 is a device of protection class II. The applied part (CNAP
®
double finger
cuff) is of type BF and is defibrillation-protected.
•
The non-invasive blood pressure measurement is suitable for use during electrosurgical surgery
as well as during the discharge of a cardiac defibrillator.
•
The CNAP
®
Monitor 500 meets the requirements of IEC 60601-1 and can be used next to pa-
tients without restrictions.
•
While using the CNAP
®
Monitor 500, avoid compressing the air hoses or reducing their diameter
in any way (e.g. by bending the cables) as this could impair the quality of the measuring signals
and be a risk for the patient.
