2. Warnings, Cautions and
Guidelines
2.1 Warnings
Warnings are indicated by the term
WARNING. Warnings alert the user when
potentially serious consequences for the
patient or the user may occur, which can
lead to injury with negative consequences
including death.
WARNING
Before the patient is connected to the
breathing tube system, a check must be
made on whether the breathing gas is
flowing unimpeded through the breathing
tube system.
WARNING
To avoid penetration of any condensate in
the breathing tube system and its flow to the
patient, the humidifier should be positioned
below the actual level of the patient.
WARNING
Risk of burns!
Under continuous operation, the heater
and the humidifier chamber can reach
temperatures of over 85°C. Before removing
the humidification chamber from the
humidifier, the humidification chamber must
be allowed sufficient time to cool down.
WARNING
When using the temperature probe, the
temperature sensor must be inserted so
that the temperature of the respiratory gas
is measured in the middle of the breathing
tube. Failure to observe the temperature
of the supplied respiratory gas can lead to
exceedance of the critical temperature of
43°C.
WARNING
Do not cover the heated breathing tube
system with any insulating material, such
as towels or blankets, or other materials,
because the filament inside the tube will
then become overheated at the covered spot.
This can lead to a deformation to the point of
melting of the breathing tube.
WARNING
The prisma VENT AQUA respiratory humidifier
may be connected to all conventional
ventilators/therapy equipment, provided its
connection is made such that any danger
for the patient, user or environment can be
avoided.
