WARNING
Risk of injury!
•
ASTOPAD is only to be used under the direction of a Licensed Healthcare
Practitioner.
•
Read and observe all instructions, stickers, and accompanying documenta-
tion enclosed with the medical device. Failure to observe the instructions, in-
cluding warnings and safety information, can result in incorrect handling, pa-
tient injury, injury to users or medical personnel, damage to the device, or
material damage.
•
Operate and service this equipment only in accordance with the procedures
described in these instructions and with the applicable standards, rules, and
guidelines. The manufacturer shall not be responsible for the safety of users
or patients if any actions/procedures other than those published are carried
out during operation, servicing, or recurrent test.
•
This device may only be operated by appropriately trained and medically
qualified healthcare professionals.
•
The service personnel must be appropriately trained and qualified.
•
If the OR table top is tilted (adjusted through the longitudinal axis), there is a
chance that the patient will slip off. The patient must be sufficiently secured
against slipping before the OR table top is tilted or otherwise moved out of
the horizontal position.
•
Due to the physico-chemical properties of disinfectants, ensure that disinfect-
ants do not accumulate beneath the patient. During use, the patient must not
be moist or even wet when lying on the mattress. This presents a chemical
burn hazard.
•
When RF surgical instruments or endocardial catheters are used, the patient
must also be properly insulated. This insulation must not be damp. The
equipment manufacturer’s instructions for use must be observed at all times.
•
With transdermal drug applications (patches), the additional heat can in-
crease the uptake of the drugs and result in injury to the patient.
•
In the case of arterial occlusion, the applied parts of the ASTOPAD may not
be used distal to this area.
•
Overheating of ischemic extremities can occur with the use of the ASTOPAD
applied parts.
•
The ASTOPAD does not contain any parts the user can repair. Therefore, do
not attempt to repair the ASTOPAD yourself. Contact your local sales point.
•
Any repairs to the equipment may only be carried out by persons authorized
and qualified by the manufacturer.
•
Modifications to the ASTOPAD are not permitted.
