Otto Bock Myo Plus Instructions For Use Manual page 9

CAUTION
Proximity to sources of strong magnetic or electrical interference (e.g. theft prevention
systems, metal detectors)
Injury due to unexpected behaviour of the product caused by interference with internal data
communication.
Avoid remaining in the vicinity of visible or concealed theft prevention systems at the
►
entrance/exit of stores, metal detectors/body scanners for persons (e.g. in airports) or other
sources of strong magnetic and electrical interference (e.g. high-voltage lines, transmitters,
transformer stations, computer tomographs, magnetic resonance tomographs, etc.).
When walking through theft prevention systems, body scanners or metal detectors, watch
►
for unexpected behaviour of the product.
CAUTION
Electrode lifting off
Injury due to unexpected product behaviour as a result of uncontrolled activation of the pros­
thesis component.
Inform the patient that uncontrolled movement of the prosthesis component may occur if the
►
electrode lifts off.
CAUTION
Skin irritation due to inadequate cleaning of the product
Skin irritation due to contact with soiled electrode domes.
Clean the product only as described in the section "Cleaning and care" (see page 17).
►
CAUTION
Insufficient skin contact of the electrodes
Injury due to faulty control or malfunction of the product.
The electrodes are to be placed on intact skin only and with as much electrode-skin contact
►
as possible.
Use the different electrode dome heights to improve the skin contact.
►
Make sure that skin contact of the electrodes continues to be given when carrying heavy
►
loads.
CAUTION
Insufficient space for electrode domes because distance is too small
Injury due to unexpected prosthesis behaviour.
Make sure that the electrode domes do not touch each other. Reduce the number of elec­
►
trode domes if necessary (e.g. if the arm is very thin).
Watch the electrode contacts if the residual limb swings or moves.
►
Use suitable dome heights according to the fit of the prosthetic socket.
►
CAUTION
Incorrect electrode settings due to muscle fatigue
Injury due to faulty control or malfunction of the product.
The patient should take breaks during calibration.
