MAINTENANCE (con't)
Leak Test:
The statMAP should be checked annually for leakage or when
there is doubt about the validity of measurements. This check
may be accomplished by plugging the outlet port, inflating the
device to 200-260 mmHg, and checking for needle movement.
Caution: Calibration and leak testing should be
performed by qualified service personnel.
Disposal of waste products:
Solid waste products will be generated when using the
statMAP that require proper disposal or recycling. These
include batteries and packaging material.
Batteries should be disposed of according to Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) regulations. It is recommended
to contact the local EPA office to ensure proper disposal
guidelines are followed.
Blood pressure cuffs should be cleaned according to
instructions. Inspect reusable applied parts for wear, replace
as necessary, and dispose of used product as medical waste.
Retain original packaging materials for future use in storing
or shipping the statMAP and accessories.
Whenever possible, recycle the packaging materials.
