Safety Measures S88, S8, S81 / OPMI Vario Notes for the operator The correct use of the device is absolutely vital for safe operation. Therefore, please thoroughly familiarize yourself with the content of these Instructions for Use before starting up the device. Please also observe the Instructions for Use of additional instrument equipment.
Page 11 (see section "Care and Maintenance"). • Modifications and repairs of this device or any equipment operated to- gether with this device may only be performed by Carl Zeiss service staff or other persons authorized by Carl Zeiss.
Page 12 Safety Measures S88, S8, S81 / OPMI Vario • Avoid looking directly into the light source, e.g. into the microscope ob- jective lens or into the light guide, in order to prevent damage to the eye! • Start with the lowest brightness setting and gradually increase brightness up to the necessary and still admissible level.
Page 13: Requirements For Operation
Safety Measures Requirements for operation Prior to the very first use Carl Zeiss Service or a person authorized by Carl Zeiss will install the device. Please make sure that the following requirements continue to be met for fur- ther operation: ...
Page 14: During Use
Safety Measures S88, S8, S81 / OPMI Vario • Check the surgical microscope for sufficient freedom of movement. The device itself or accessories may be damaged if conflicting with each other. • To prevent accessories from falling down, check before every use that ac- cessories are securely locked in position and securing screws are firmly tightened.
Page 15: After Every Use
S88, S8, S81 / OPMI Vario Safety Measures • Defective or unidentified accessories may lead to increased leakage cur- rent on the system and injure the patient. Never connect any defective or unidentified accessories and never touch the power outlet or video inter- faces while in contact with the patient.
Page 16: Connecting Navigation Systems (Option)
– Implementing a procedure that guarantees the calibration of the sur- gical microscope which is absolutely vital for the use of the Carl Zeiss components "surgical microscope on suspension system" in combina- tion with a connected navigation system.
Page 17: Risk Of Burn Injuries Caused By High Illumination Intensity
S88, S8, S81 / OPMI Vario Safety Measures • To check the accuracy of the overall system, perform the test specified by the navigation system manufacturer, e.g. the landmark test, also using the surgical microscope. This allows you to ensure that the stereotactic data has been correctly generated and transmitted to the navigation system without errors.
Page 18 – Certain medications affect the sensitivity to light. Recommendations Due to the large number of different factors involved and the lack of scientific publications on this topic, Carl Zeiss cannot provide guidance on acceptable illumination intensities and exposure durations. However, the surgical micro- Version 6.2...
Page 19 The area of the incision should be constantly irrigated. Final remark Carl Zeiss recommends to reduce illumination of the surgical field in that pos- sible extent to ensure the patient's security and a good microscopic image. Please refer to the warnings and precautions in this case.
