6 Introduction Welch Allyn Spot Vital Signs LXi WARNING Do not allow a blood pressure cuff to remain on the patient more than 10 minutes when inflated above 10 mmHg. This may cause patient distress, disturb blood circulation, and contribute to injury of peripheral nerves. WARNING Do not place the cuff on any extremity that is used for intravenous infusions or any area where circulation is compromised. WARNING Excessive cuff tightness may cause venous congestion and discoloration of the limb. WARNING Wrapping the cuff too loosely (preventing proper inflation) may result in errors. WARNING Do not change the connector(s) on the blood pressure cuff tubing of this device to luer type. Luer type connectors are commonly used in intravenous infusion systems. Using the luer connectors on blood pressure cuff tubing creates the risk that the blood pressure tubing could be mistakenly connected to a patient's intravenous line, resulting in the introduction of air into the patient's circulatory system.
Directions for Use Introduction 7 Temperature Warnings SureTemp ® Plus These warnings pertain to the Spot LXi temperature feature. These warnings are specific to the SureTemp Plus thermometer option. WARNING Use only Welch Allyn probe covers. Using other manufacturers’ probe covers or no probe cover may produce temperature measurement errors and/or inaccuracy. WARNING Long-term continuous monitoring beyond three to five minutes is not recommended in any mode. WARNING Oral/axillary probes (blue ejection button at top of probe) and blue removable probe wells are used for taking oral and axillary temperatures only. Rectal probes (red ejection button) and red removable probe wells are used for taking rectal temperatures only. Use of the probe at the wrong site will result in temperature errors. Use of the incorrect removable probe well could result in patient cross-contamination. WARNING The thermometer connectors and probe are not waterproof. Do not immerse or drip fluids on these items. Should this occur, dry the connectors and probe with warm air. Check all functions for proper operation and accuracy. WARNING Do not take an axillary temperature through patient’s clothing. Direct probe cover to skin contact is required. WARNING Do not autoclave. WARNING Use Welch Allyn single-use disposable probe covers to limit patient cross-contamination. WARNING Incorrect insertion of probe can cause bowel perforation. WARNING Washing hands greatly reduces the risk of cross-contamination and nosocomial infection. WARNING To ensure optimal accuracy, always confirm that the correct mode is selected.
