Passport® - Mindray

Introduction Warnings
Warnings
WARNING: Use of the Passport V is restricted to one patient at a time.
WARNING: This device is not intended for direct cardiac application.
WARNING: Internal Electrical Shock Hazard - This unit does not contain any
user-serviceable parts. Do not remove instrument covers. Refer
Servicing to qualified personnel.
WARNING: Do not use this monitor during MRI (Magnetic Resonance
Imaging) scanning. Induced current could potentially cause
burns. Accuracy of measurements on this unit and the MRI unit
may also be affected.
WARNING: To reduce the hazard of burns in the high-frequency surgical
neutral electrode connection, the electrodes should not be
located between the surgical site and the electro-surgical unit
return electrode.
WARNING: Ensure that conductive parts of the ECG electrodes do not
contact other conductive parts including earth ground. Do not
connect any non-isolated accessories to the Passport V or to the
ECG or invasive pressure channel inputs when connected to a
patient. Ensure that the total chassis leakage currents of all
connected units does not exceed 300µA. Use an IEC 60601-1
approved isolation / separation transformer if required. Do not
simultaneously touch the patient and any piece of electrical
equipment if any cover has been removed from the equipment.
WARNING: Electrode polarization: some electrodes may be subject to large
offset potentials due to polarization. Use only electrodes as
recommended by Mindray. Recovery time after application of
defibrillator pulses may be especially compromised. Squeeze
bulb electrodes commonly used for diagnostic ECG recording
may be particularly vulnerable to this effect. Electrodes of
dissimilar metals should not be used unless the amplifier can
handle polarization potentials as high as 1 volt (V).
WARNING: The AC line cord and interface cables (i.e. non-patient cables)
may utilize the same ground. Therefore, removal of the AC line
cord does not necessarily isolate the Passport V if non-patient
interface cables are attached.
WARNING: Observe extreme caution when a defibrillator is used on a
patient. Do not touch any part of patient, table, or monitor
when a defibrillator is in use.
WARNING: Do not incinerate battery; possible explosion may occur.
