must be minimally certified to EN / IEC / CSA / UL 60950 or 60101‑1 standards. This
configuration ensures that compliance to the EN/IEC 60601‑1‑1 system standard is maintained.
Anyone connecting additional equipment to the BladderScan BVM 9500 signal input port or
signal output port configures a medical system, and is therefore responsible for ensuring that
the system complies with EN/IEC 60601‑1‑1. If you need assistance, contact your biomedical
staff, Verathon
representative, or Verathon Customer Care.

when clinically indicated, using the lowest exposure times possible to obtain accurate measurements.
The ultrasonic output of the BladderScan BVM 9500 is not user‑adjustable and is limited to the
minimum level necessary for effective performance. For more information about the acoustic output
levels of this device, please refer to the section
