Performance Warnings and Cautions
WARNING
: Root should not be used as the sole basis for medical decisions. It must be used in
conjunction with clinical signs and symptoms.
WARNING: Root may be used during defibrillation, but this may affect the accuracy or
availability of the parameters and measurements.
WARNING:
Root may be used during electrocautery, but this may affect the accuracy or
availability of the parameters and measurements.
WARNING: Wireless communication of alarms to a secondary monitoring station should not
be relied upon as a primary alarm.
WARNING: Do not place the Root against a surface that may cause the alarm to be muffled.
WARNING:
Radical-7 may not fully charge in a high ambient temperature environment.
WARNING : The use of any other probe cover may produce temperature measurement errors
or may result in inaccurate readings.
WARNING : Do not take axillary temperature through the patient's clothing, direct
probe-cover-to-skin contact is required.
WARNING : Before applying the cuff on the patient, confirm the cuff size is appropriate.
WARNING : When a blood pressure measurement error code occurs, any blood pressure values
reported should be disregarded.
WARNING
: Always ensure settings including alarms are appropriate for each patient prior to
use.
WARNING : When using multiple devices in the same or similar environment, use of the same
patient profile (including the same alarm presets) to avoid confusion that can lead to patient
harm.
CAUTION
: When setting alarms, consideration should be made to selecting clinically
significant values to avoid settings that would prevent the alarms from being useful.
CAUTION : Ensure probe well is properly in place.
CAUTION : Biting the probe tip while taking a temperature may result in damage to the
probe.
CAUTION : If the blood pressure cuff is on the same limb as monitoring equipment (i.e., pulse
oximeter probe), the pressurization within the cuff can cause temporary loss of function of the
monitoring equipment.
CAUTION
: Long-term continuous temperature monitoring, greater than 5 minutes, is not
recommended.
CAUTION : Use of the incorrect probe at the measurement site will result in temperature
errors.
CAUTION:
Ensure the speaker is not covered.
CAUTION:
Before using Root under high intensity surgical lights, confirm that the display
settings allow for clear display of measurements.
CAUTION: Do not connect to an electrical outlet controlled by a wall switch or dimmer.
