WARNING
HF leakage current flows through metal parts
The patient must not have contact with electrically conductive ob-
jects. That includes metal parts of the operating table, for example.
HF current can be discharged through points of contact accidentally
(HF leakage current).
Risk of burns to the patient!
¨
Position the patient on dry, antistatic drapes.
¨
If the drapes can become wet during the operation due to sweat,
blood, irrigation liquid, urine, etc., lay a waterproof sheet over
the drapes.
WARNING
HF leakage current flows through monitoring electrodes
HF current can be discharged through points of contact between
the skin and monitoring electrodes accidentally (HF leakage cur-
rent).
Risk of burns to the patient!
¨
Position monitoring electrodes as far away as possible from the
surgical field (area where electrosurgical instruments are used).
¨
Do not use needle electrodes for monitoring during electrosur-
gery.
¨
Where possible, use monitoring electrodes that contain devices
to limit high-frequency current.
WARNING
HF leakage current flows through skin-to-skin points of con-
tact
HF current can be discharged through skin-to-skin points of contact
accidentally (HF leakage current).
Risk of burns to the patient!
¨
Prevent skin-to-skin points of contact. For example, lay dry gauze
between the patient's arms and body.
WARNING
Unintentional activation of the instrument
Risk of burns to the patient and medical personnel!
¨
Put instruments down in a safe place: sterile, dry, non-conduc-
tive, and easy to see. Instruments that have been put down must
not come into contact with the patient, medical personnel, or
combustible materials.
¨
Instruments that have been put down must not come into con-
tact with the patient, not even indirectly. An instrument can
come into contact with the patient indirectly through electrically
conductive objects or wet drapes, for example.
CAUTION
Hot instruments
Even non-active instruments that are still hot can burn the patient
or medical personnel.
