Batteries; Operator Safety - ZOLL AEV Operator's Manual

Loss of pulse signal can occur in any of the following situations:
•
Sensors:
•
Do not use the pulse oximeter sensor during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning.
•
Inducing current could potentially cause burns. The pulse oximeter may affect the MRI
image and the MRI unit may affect the accuracy of the dosimetry measurements.

Batteries

Only use the Power Supply provided with the device. Use of any other power supply could
•
cause damage or create a fire and/or destroy the battery and unit.
If you witness a battery or the battery compartment starting to balloon, swell up, smoke, or
•
feel excessively hot, turn off the unit, disconnect external power, and observe it in a safe
place for approximately 15 minutes and send the unit for service. Never puncture or
disassemble the battery packs or cells.

Operator Safety

Electric shock hazard: Do not remove equipment covers. You may only perform
•
maintenance procedures specifically described in this manual. Refer all servicing to
ZOLL or a ZOLL-authorized service center.
Possible explosion hazard if used in the presence of flammable anesthetics or other
•
flammable substances in combination with air, oxygen-enriched environments, or nitrous
oxide.
This device is not intended for use in explosive atmospheres.
•
Pins of connectors identified with the ESD warning symbol should not be touched. Always
•
use precautionary procedures with ESD-sensitive connections.

The sensor is too tight.
•
Excessive illumination from light sources such as a surgical lamp, a Rubin lamp, or
•
sunlight.
A blood pressure cuff is inflated on the same extremity as the one with an SpO
•
sensor attached.
The patient has hypotension, severe vascoconstriction, severe anemia, or
•
hypothermia.
Arterial occlusion proximal to the sensor.
•
The patient is in cardiac arrest or is in shock.
•
Before use, carefully read the LNCS
•
Use only Masimo oximetry sensors for SpO
•
transducers (sensors) may cause improper performance.
Tissue damage can be caused by incorrect application or use of an LNCS
•
for example, by wrapping the sensor too tightly. Inspect the sensor site as directed
in the sensor Directions for Use to ensure skin integrity and correct positioning
and adhesion of the sensor.
Do not damage LNCS

components. Do not immerse the sensor in water, solvents, or cleaning solutions
(The sensors and connectors are not waterproof). Do not sterilize by irradiation,
steam, or ethylene oxide. See the cleaning instructions in the directions for reusable
®
Masimo LNCS sensors.
Do not use damaged patient cables. Do not immerse the patient cables in water,
•
solvents, or cleaning solutions (the patient cables are not waterproof). Do not
sterilize by irradiation, steam, or ethylene oxide. See the cleaning instructions in
the directions for reusable Masimo patient cables.
