EMI (Electromagnetic Interference)
WARNING: Keep patients under close surveillance when monitoring. It is
possible, although unlikely, that radiated electromagnetic signals from
sources external to the patient and the Smartsigns
®
Liteplus can cause
inaccurate measurement readings. Do not rely entirely on the Smartsigns
®
Liteplus readings for patient assessment.
WARNING: It is possible that any radio frequency transmitting equipment
and other sources of electrical noise such as cellular phones, due to close
proximity or strength of a source, may result in disruption of performance
of the Smartsigns
®
Liteplus.
WARNING: It is possible, although unlikely, that large equipment using a
switching relay for its power on/off may result in disruption of performance
of the Smartsigns
®
Liteplus when the large equipment powers on or off. Do
not place the Smartsigns
®
Liteplus to monitor in such environments.
CAUTION
: This device has been tested and found to comply with the limits for medical
devices to the IEC60601-1-2, and the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC. These limits
are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical
medical installation.
However, because of the proliferation of electromagnetic noise in health care
environments (for example; electrosurgical unit, cellular phones, mobile two-way radios,
electrical appliances, and high-de
fi
nition television), it is possible that high levels of such
interference due to close proximity or strength of a source may result in disruption of
performance of this device.
CAUTION
: The Smartsigns
®
Liteplus is designed for use in environments in which
the signal can be obscured by electromagnetic interference. During such
interference, measurements may seem inappropriate or the monitor may not seem
to operate correctly.
CAUTION
: Disruption may be evidenced by erratic readings, cessation of
operation, or other incorrect functioning.
If this occurs, the site of use should be surveyed to determine the source of this
disruption, and the following actions taken to eliminate the source:
•
Turn equipment in the vicinity off and on to isolate the offending equipment.
•
Reorient or relocate the interfering equipment.
•
Increase the separation between the interfering equipment and this
equipment.
If assistance is required, contact Huntleigh Healthcare Ltd Technical Services Department.
