Patient safety
The design of the equipment, the accompanying literature, and
the labelling on the equipment take into consideration that the
purchase and use of the equipment are restricted to trained
professionals, and that certain inherent characteristics of the
equipment are known to the trained operator. Instructions,
WARNINGS and CAUTION statements are limited, therefore,
largely to the specifics of the Dräger design.
This publication excludes references to various hazards which
are obvious to a medical professional and operator of this
equipment, to the consequences of product misuse, and to
potentially adverse effects in patients with abnormal conditions.
Product modification or misuse can be dangerous.
Patient monitoring
The operators of the system must recognize their responsibility
for choosing appropriate safety monitoring that supplies
adequate information on equipment performance and
patient condition.
Patient safety may be achieved through a wide variety of
different means ranging from electronic surveillance of
equipment performance and patient condition to simple,
direct observation of clinical signs.
The responsibility for the selection of the best level of patient
monitoring lies solely with the equipment operator.
