Safety precautions
Warnings
•
Make sure that the electrodes, sensor and connectors do not touch any electrically
conductive material, including earth
.
•
DEFIBRILLATOR PRECAUTIONS - Patient signal inputs labeled with the CF and BF symbols
with paddles are protected against damage resulting from defibrillation voltages. To
ensure proper defibrillator protection, use only the recommended cables and leadwires.
Do not reuse the single-use entropy electrodes.
•
DEFIBRILLATOR PRECAUTIONS - Proper placement of defibrillator pads in relation to the
electrodes is required to ensure successful defibrillation.
•
In case of spill, take device out of service and have it checked.
Cautions
•
When using the electrosurgery unit, ensure proper contact of the ESU return electrode to
the patient to avoid burns at monitor measurement sites. Also ensure that the ESU return
electrode is near the operating area.
•
Strong 30-40 Hz magnetic fields may cause erroneous Entropy measurement. Do not use
devices with such a field close to the module or sensor.
•
The Entropy measurement is always to be used only as an adjunct to other physiological
parameters. Clinicians are advised to use their knowledge and experience when making
clinical judgements. Entropy values are not to be used as sole indicators of the patient
status.
•
Check the sensor expiration date on the sensor package. Do not use expired sensors. Do
not use a sensor for more than 24 hours.
Note
•
Automatic sensor check may need to be disabled if the 70 Hz impedance check signal
interferes with other equipment, such as EEG module with evoked potentials
measurement.
•
The device is not compatible with M-ENTROPY module.
