1.1. intended use
The Sandman
®
Digital 32+™ Amplifier (" SD32+ ") is intended to be used by or under the direction
of a physician for acquisition of EEG, polygraphy, and polysomnography signals and
transmission of these signals to a PC during recording of neurophysiology examinations.
1.2. safety information and document conventions
The following table describes the safety and document conventions found in this manual:
Warning
The Warning message appears in this manual before procedures or tasks
that must be strictly observed to avoid patient harm, inaccurate
measurements, or loss of data.
Caution The Caution message appears in the manual before procedures or tasks that
must be strictly observed to avoid damage to the product.
Note The Notes message contains important information to help the operator
complete a procedure or task correctly.
1.3. warnings
1. Do not disassemble the SD32+ or Headbox.
2. All connections on the Headbox are isolated from the ground of your building’s
electrical system (AC power ground). This type of insulation is known as “floating
isolation”. To avoid injury to the patient,
do not connect input signals to the
Headbox from devices that are not equipped with floating isolation.
3. To maintain the SD32+ electrical isolation ensure that neither the patient nor any
conductive part connected to the patient (such as electrodes or sensors) comes into
contact with any conductive material.
4. Verify that the building’s electrical wiring is in good condition and properly
grounded. To ensure the safety of both patient and technician make certain that any
AC powered device connected to the
SD32+ is properly grounded.
5. Always follow the safety precautions outlined in chapter 2. Safety on page 6 of this
manual.
6. Place the computer outside of the patient area. If this is not possible, power the
computer through a dedicated isolation transformer.
7. Carefully route and secure sensor cables to avoid patient entanglement or
strangulation.
