Warnings
Patient Monitoring - The most reliable method of patient
monitoring combines close personal surveillance with correct
operation of monitoring equipment. Patient alarm conditions and
notifications are primary functions of the patient monitoring
system. It is imperative that the caregiver and/or monitoring floor
technicians monitor patient alarm conditions. The AlarmView
System is not intended for use as the primary source for the
patient alarm notification.
Accidental Spills - In the event fluids are accidentally spilled in
the equipment, take the equipment out of service and check for
damage. Check operation after drying 24 hours later.
Antenna Placement - The transmitter unit with a transmitter
antenna may interfere with computer equipment with electronic
switchboards located close to the antenna. If the transmitter unit
must be located close to these types of equipment, a remote
antenna should be used.
Change of Performance - If the system fails to page users
reliably, contact the hospital staff responsible for electromagnetic
environment and Data Critical Corp. immediately. (Data Critical
Corp. 24 hour support at 1-877-322-7828)
Electrical Shock - To reduce the risk of electrical shock, DO
NOT remove cover (or back). Refer servicing to qualified
personnel.
Environment - Data Critical Corporation does not assume
responsibility for damage to the equipment caused by improperly
vented cabinets, improper or faulty power, or insufficient wall
strength to support equipment mounted on such walls.
Explosion Hazard - Do not use this equipment in the presence
of flammable anesthetics, skin cleaning agents, and
disinfectants. Great care must be exercised when the device is
used in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere. The atmosphere is
considered to be oxygen enriched when the room air contains
more than 25% of oxygen or nitrous oxide.
