2.2 Function
The treadmill has two essential performance characteristics: Speed and elevation.
The rotation of the running belt represents the speed.
The raising of the whole treadmill frame incl. running deck enables the elevation.
Both parameters are manually adjustable on the UserTerminal.
Furthermore, operation is possible via pre- and self-dened modes.
Operation is also possible via external devices (PC, ECG, etc.).
The chapter “operation” gives a detailed description of all functions.
The chapter “technical data” shows technical details.
The treadmill is driven by powerful motors.
For that reason it is very important to follow the safety information, in order to avoid injury or death.
As previously described, the treadmill contains a number of standardized protocols.
Nevertheless, the treadmill does not provide recommendations for treatment.
The decision regarding the correct load is the responsibility of the medical doctor.
Depending on the application, the load includes speed, elevation, distance, heart rate, body weight or motion support, etc..

4.2 Fall prevention devices
A fall prevention device is the only effective way to protect the patient from falling.
For any medical treadmill application, a fall prevention device is prescribed and absolutely obligatory.
h/p/cosmos provides fall prevention devices in the form of a safety arch or a body weight support device (airwalk).
It is up to the operator to use any other device that prevents the patient from falling and complies with IEC60601-1.
The pull-cord safety stop is not a fall prevention.

4.7 Residual risk / Side effects
After risk reduction only 13 of more than 230 causes are in the "widely acceptable" region.
In case fall prevention is not applied or not applied correctly, there are residual risks, such as falling of a person resulting in skin
abrasions, bruises, fractures or in worst case even death.
Furthermore there is residual risk such as unintended overload of the patient caused by wrong operation, wrong assessment, or
wrong application of the operator and also incorrect data transfer (e.g. electromagnetic interferences, software failure, etc.). Even
the best software and hardware safety concepts can never completely rule out a failure of software or hardware and thereby a
theoretically possible overloading of the patient.
Since the treadmill is an electrically operated device, an electric shock, which might result in death can never be ruled out, although
the design and verication is according to the relevant standards for electrical safety of medical devices, an electric shock, which can
result in death, can never be ruled out completely.
The residual risk of strangulation can not be excluded as well. The risk is reduced by safety information within the IFU.
It cannot be excluded that unintended or forbidden use might cause further not yet regarded risks and that already regarded risks
might have been estimated incorrectly. It can also not be excluded that the daily use of the medical product might show further risks.
In ergometry, diagnostics and therapy there are alternatives to treadmill application such as bicycle ergometry (without natural
gait movement) or overground gait therapy (secured only by the therapist), etc. the benet of treadmill training in contrast to these
alternatives is clearly outweighing the residual risk of falling or overload with the known consequences.
In this risk analysis the "present state" of the device has been evaluated.
Having carried out the evaluation and validation of the product, the risk of appearance of a not acceptable risk is very low.
The device (it´s construction, it´s function as well as the intended application) does - under normal conditions - not represent any
unjustiable risk for the patient, the user, the operator or third persons.
4.8 Fireghting
Do not use liquid reghting resources.
Use CO2.
4.9 All-pole disconnection
The following options are available for all-pole disconnection:
❚
Unplug device from power socket.
❚
Unplug cable from device.
❚
Switch off device protection switch
Maintain enough free space to ensure access to cables and the circuit breaker (see “position of patient and operator”).

5 Preparation
Description Ilustration
Perform daily inspection as described in “daily inspection”.
Explain device and application to patient.
Explain and apply fall prevention as described in “fall
prevention”.
Guide patient onto treadmill.
❚
Do not enter the device when running belt is rotating.
❚
Do not step on rear roller.
❚
Do not stand on or enter the running deck when device is in
elevation (running belt might slip through due to gravity).
If possible, the patient should hold both handrails for stability
when entering the treadmill.
Holding handrails during use affects exercise results.
