Warnings
•
Do not allow water to enter this device. Transcend Micro should not be exposed to
environmental conditions where the system may get wet.
•
This device is not intended for life support.
•
The Transcend Micro must be set up and adjusted by a trained provider before
being used for therapy ramp and pressure.
•
The air temperature produced by this device can be as much as 10ºF higher than
the temperature of the room. Exercise caution if the room temperature is warmer
than 90ºF (32ºC).
•
Do not block or otherwise obstruct the exhalation ports of the mask. Follow the
manufacturer’s instructions included with your mask.
•
This equipment is not suitable for use with oxygen or in the presence of a
flammable anesthetic mixture with air or oxygen, or with nitrous oxide. Sources of
oxygen must be located more than 1 meter from the equipment to avoid the risk of
fire and burns.
•
The Transcend Micro is only to be used with the supplied or recommended
accessories. Use of accessories not recommended may result in increased
electromagnetic emissions or decreased electromagnetic immunity of the PAP
system and may be potentially unsafe.
•
The Transcend Micro is not defibrillation proof.
•
Do not attempt to sterilize Transcend Micro.
•
If the device is to be used by multiple patients a main flow bacteria filter should be
installed in-line between the device and the mask to prevent contamination. Only
use filters that are ISO 23328-1:2003 and ISO 23328-2:2002 approved.
•
The device should be used only with masks and connectors recommended by
Transcend or a health care professional. A mask should not be used unless the
device is turned on and is properly delivering ramp or therapy pressure. The
exhalation port(s) associated with the mask should never be blocked. Explanation
of the Warning: The device is intended to be used with masks or connectors
specifically designed to have exhalation ports to allow continuous flow of air out of
the mask. When the device is in operation, air flow from the device flushes exhaled
air out through the mask exhalation port. When the device is not operating,
however, fresh air will not be provided through the mask and exhaled air may be
rebreathed.
•
Failure to use a mask or accessory that minimizes rebreathing of carbon dioxide or
permits spontaneous breathing can cause asphyxiation. Only use masks which
comply with ISO 17510.
•
Do not position the equipment in bed. Covering breathing tubes with a blanket or
heating them can affect the quality of therapy or injure the user.
•
To prevent disconnection of the tubing during use only Transcend supplied hoses or
hoses in compliance with ISO 5367 or ISO 80601-2-74 should be used.
