WARNING:
Water Loss: The radiant energy from phototherapy lights can increase a
patient's insensible water loss. Take appropriate measures to maintain
the patient's fluid balance while administering phototherapy.
WARNING:
Skin Temperature: Phototherapy light can affect the temperature in
thermoregulation devices (incubator, radiant warmers or heated
mattresses) and may raise the patient's body temperature. It is
recommended to use the incubator or warmer in skin controlled (servo)
mode. Always monitor the patient's temperature to avoid temperature
fluctuations during phototherapy.
WARNING:
Reflective Foils: Using reflective foils to increase the efficacy of
phototherapy may cause hazardous patient body temperatures.
WARNING:
Combustible Gases: Do not use the BiliSoft LED Phototherapy System in
the presence of gases that support combustion like oxygen, nitrous
oxide or other flammable or combustible anesthetics.
WARNING:
Flammable Solutions: Never use flammable solutions to clean the BiliSoft LED
Phototherapy System or any of its parts.
CAUTION:
Medical Electrical Equipment needs special precautions regarding EMC and
