For your safety and that of your patients

Safe coupling with electrical equipment

CAUTION
Risk of patient injury
Coupling with electrical equipment that is not
mentioned in these instructions for use or
assembly instructions may only be done with the
respective device manufacturer.

Patient safety

The design of the medical device, the
accompanying documentation, and the labeling on
the medical device are based on the assumption
that the purchase and the use of the medical
device are restricted to users, and that certain
inherent characteristics of the medical device are
known to the user. Instructions and WARNING and
CAUTION statements are therefore largely limited
to the specifics of the Dräger medical device.
These instructions for use do not contain
references to various hazards which are obvious to
users who operate this medical device as well as
references to the consequences of medical device
misuse, and to potentially adverse effects in
patients with different underlying diseases. Medical
device modification or misuse can be dangerous.
CAUTION
Risk of patient injury
Do not make therapeutic decisions based solely
on individual measured values and monitoring
parameters.

Patient monitoring

The user of the medical device is responsible for
choosing suitable monitoring that provides
appropriate information about medical device
performance and the patient's condition.
Patient safety may be achieved by a wide variety
of means ranging from electronic surveillance of
medical device performance and patient condition
to simple, direct observation of clinical signs.
The responsibility for selecting the best level of
patient monitoring lies solely with the user of the
medical device.
