Vital Signs Monitor User Manual Intended Use and Safety Guidance
- 1 -
Chapter 1 Intended Use and Safety Guidance
1.1 Intended Use/Indications for Use
The monitor is intended to be used for monitoring, storing, recording, and reviewing of, and to
generate alarms for, multiple physiological parameters of adults, pediatrics and neonates. The
monitor is intended for use by trained healthcare professionals in hospital environments.
Monitored parameters include: NIBP, SpO2, PR (pulse rate), Quick TEMP/Infrared TEMP.
The monitor is not intended for MRI environments. TEMP module is not intended for neonates.
1.2 Safety Guidance
Federal (U.S.) law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
WARNING
1 To ensure that the monitor works properly, please read the user manual and follow
the steps before using the monitor.
2 Before using the device, the equipment, patient cable and sensors etc. should be
checked. Replacement should be taken if there is any evident defect or signs of aging
which may impair the safety or performance.
3 Medical technical equipment such as these monitor/monitoring systems must only be
used by persons who have received adequate training in the use of such equipment
and who are capable of applying it properly.
4 EXPLOSION HAZARD-Do not use the device in a flammable atmosphere where
concentrations of flammable anesthetics or other materials may occur.
5 SHOCK HAZARD-To avoid the RISK of electric shock, this equipment must only be
connected to a SUPPLY MAINS with protective earth. Never adapt the three-prong
plug from the monitor to fit a two-slot outlet.
6 Do not come into contact with the patient, table, or the monitor during defibrillation.
7 The simultaneous use of cardiac pacemaker and other patient-connected equipment
may cause safety hazard.
8 Extreme care must be exercised when applying medical electrical equipment. Many
parts of the human/machine circuit are conductive, such as the patient, connectors,
transducers. It is very important that these conductive parts do not come into contact
with other grounded, conductive parts when connected to the isolated patient input of
the device. Such contact would bridge the patient's isolation and cancel the protection
provided by the isolated input. In particular, there must be no contact of the neutral
electrode and ground.

WARNING
9 Magnetic and electrical fields are capable of interfering with the proper performance
of the device. For this reason make sure that all external devices operated in the
vicinity of the monitor comply with the relevant EMC requirements. X-ray equipment
or MRI devices are a possible source of interference as they may emit higher levels of
electromagnetic radiation.
10 Route all cables carefully to avoid possible entanglement, apnea, or electrical
interference. For the device mounted over the patient, sufficient precautionary
measures should be taken to prevent it from falling on the patient.
11 Devices connecting with monitor should be equipotential.
12 Do not rely exclusively on the auditory alarm system for patient monitoring.
Adjustment of alarm volume to a low level or off during patient monitoring may result
in a hazard to the patient. Remember that the most reliable method of patient
monitoring combines close personal surveillance with correct operation of monitoring
equipment.
13 Accessory equipment connected to the analog and digital interfaces must be certified
according to the respective IEC/EN standards (e.g. IEC/EN 60950 for data processing
equipment and IEC/EN 60601-1 for medical equipment). Furthermore all
configurations shall comply with the valid version of the standard IEC/EN 60601-1.
Therefore anybody, who connects additional equipment to the signal input or output
connector to configure a medical system, must make sure that it complies with the
requirements of the valid version of the system standard IEC/EN 60601-1. If in doubt,
consult our technical service department or your local distributor.
14 Only patient cable and other accessories supplied by EDAN can be used. The
performance and electric shock protection cannot be guaranteed, and the patient may
be injured otherwise. Prior to use, check if the casing of a disposable accessory is
intact. Do not use it if its casing is damaged.
15 When interfacing with other equipment, a test for leakage current must be performed
by qualified biomedical engineering personnel before using with patients.
16 If several items of medical equipment are interconnected, pay attention to the sum of
the leakage currents, otherwise it may cause shock hazard. Consult your service
personnel.
17 In monitor mode, when monitoring is in process, if the power supply is off and there is
no battery for standby, the monitor will be off. The settings configured by the user can
be stored, and settings not configured by user keep no change. That is, the last
settings used will be recovered when the power is restored. In round or spot-checking
mode, the patient type will be restored to adult by default, and the monitor is in status
with no patients, and other settings processing after power off are the same with that
in monitor mode.
