SE-301 Series Electrocardiograph User Manual
14. To avoid a polarization or DC offset voltage, use non-polarizing electrodes(which will
not form a DC offset voltage when subjected to a DC current) such as
silver/silver-chloride types if there is a situation where there is a likelihood that a
defibrillation procedure will be necessary.
15. There is no danger for patients with pacemakers. However, if a pacemaker is used,
the results given by the equipment may be invalid, or lose the clinical significance.
16. If reusable electrodes with electrode gel are used during defibrillation, ECG recovery
will take more than 10 seconds. The manufacturer recommends the use of
disposable electrodes at all times.
17. Electrodes of dissimilar metals should not be used; it may cause a high polarization
voltage.
18. The disposable electrodes can only be used for one time.
19. Do not touch the patient, bed, table or the equipment while using the ECG together
with a defibrillator.
20. Do not touch accessible parts of electrical equipment and the patient simultaneously.
21. The use of equipment that applies high frequency voltages to the patient (including
electrosurgical equipment and some respiration transducers) is not supported and
may produce undesired results. Disconnect the patient data cable from the
electrocardiograph, or detach the leads from the patient prior to performing any
procedure that uses high frequency surgical equipment.
22. If WIFI technology is used, in order to maintain compliance with the FCC RF
exposure guidelines, the wireless should be installed and operated with a minimum
distance of 20cm between the radiator and the human body. Use the supplied
antenna only. There should be no shield in or around the room where WIFI is used.
23. Fix attention on the examination to avoid missing important ECG waves.
24. SHOCK HAZARD - Don't connect non-medical electrical equipment, which has been
supplied as a part of the system, directly to the wall outlet when the non-medical
equipment is intended to be supplied by a multiple portable socket-outlet with an
isolation transformer.
25. SHOCK HAZARD - Don't connect electrical equipment, which has not been supplied
as a part of the system, to the multiple portable socket-outlet supplying the system.
