Caution Risk of injury from touching the contacts on the FlowCheck
sensor connection line/FlowCheck sensor connection line with
MEDUtrigger and the patient at the same time!
The contacts on the FlowCheck sensor connection line/FlowCheck
sensor connection line with MEDUtrigger are live. Touching the
contacts and the patient at the same time can injure the user or
the patient.
⇒ Do not touch the contacts on the FlowCheck sensor
connection line/FlowCheck sensor connection line with
MEDUtrigger and the patient at the same time.
2.4.4 Ventilation
Warning Risk of injury due to lack of patient monitoring!
If the patient is not supervised during ventilation, delayed
responses of medical personnel to alarms and error messages may
result in serious injuries to the patient.
⇒ Always monitor patients during ventilation.
⇒ Be sure to react immediately to alarms and error messages as
well as a deterioration in the condition of the patient.
Risk of injury from condensate in the FlowCheck sensor and
the patient valve at temperatures below 5°C!
With longer term ventilation of patients at temperatures below
5°C, the moisture from expiratory breath can condense in the
FlowCheck sensor and patient valve. This may interfere with the
functioning of the parts and injure the patient.
⇒ Quickly transfer the patient to a warmer location.
⇒ At temperatures below 5°C use a breathing system filter to
extend the period of application.
Risk of poisoning due to an overly high concentration of
oxygen during ventilation!
Highly concentrated oxygen can have a toxic effect on the patient
if administered for too long and depending on the age of the
patient.
⇒ Do not use highly concentrated oxygen on a patient for too
long during ventilation.
⇒ Do not use the device for the ventilation of premature babies
(born before the end of the 36th week of pregnancy).
