Warnings
12 Portable Bedside Capnograph/Pulse Oximeter
WARNING: If calibration does not take place as instructed in the relevant service manual, the monitor
may be out of calibration. A monitor that is out of calibration may provide inaccurate
results.
Note: Devices connected to the monitor must be medical grade only.
Note: The accurate display of the following parameters is required in order to fill the essential performance of
the device: Carbon dioxide levels in expired breath (CO
2
) and respiration rate when monitoring with
capnography, and arterial oxygen saturation of blood (SpO
2
) and Pulse rate when monitoring with pulse
oximetry. If the patient is being monitored with both functions, all of these parameters will be displayed.
MRI Scanning
WARNING: Do not use oximetry sensors during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning.
Conducted current could cause burns. The sensors may affect the MRI image, and the MRI
unit may affect the accuracy of oximetry measurements.
WARNING: Do not use the FilterLine H Set Infant/Neonatal during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
scanning. Using the FilterLine H Set Infant/Neonatal during MRI scanning could harm the
patient.
CAUTION: During MRI scanning, the monitor must be placed outside the MRI suite. When the monitor
is used outside the MRI suite, etCO
2
monitoring can be implemented using the FilterLine
XL. (Refer to Monitoring CO2 during MRI Scanning on page 56 .
CAUTION: Use of a CO
2
sampling line with H in its name (indicating that it is for use in humidified
environments) during MRI scanning may cause interference. The use of non-H sampling
lines is advised. For a list of H sampling lines, see Microstream EtCO2 Consumables on
page 137 .
Monitor Use with Defibrillators
WARNING: All cables and tubing, including SpO
2
sensors and CO
2
sampling lines, should be kept clear
of the defibrillator and its electrodes, and should not run between, adjacent to, or
overlapping the electrodes and the electrode wires, in order to reduce potential interference
between the monitor and defibrillation equipment.
WARNING: All SpO
2
sensors must be completely intact and undamaged, in order to enable use of a
defibrillator with the monitor.
Alarms
WARNING: Do not silence the audible alarm if patient safety may be compromised.
WARNING: Always respond immediately to a system alarm since the patient may not be monitored
during certain alarm conditions.
WARNING: Before each use, verify that the alarm limits are appropriate for the patient being monitored.
WARNING: Check the audible alarm silence duration before temporarily silencing the audible alarms.
WARNING: Auditory alarm signal sound pressure levels which are less than ambient sound levels can
impede operator recognition of alarm conditions.
CAUTION: Setting alarm limits to extreme values may impair the alarm system’s effectiveness.
Fire Hazard
WARNING: When using the monitor with anesthetics, nitrous oxide or high concentrations of oxygen,
connect the gas outlets to a scavenger system.
WARNING: The monitor is not suitable for use in the presence of flammable anesthetic mixture with air,
oxygen or nitrous oxide.
