Product Description And Intended Use - Stryker iSwitch Manual De Operación Y Mantenimiento

Product Description and
Intended Use
The Stryker Wireless Universal footswitch system is a wireless remote-control
system that centralizes control of the various footswitch-operated devices found
in the operating room.
The iSwitch is intended for use in surgical procedures where footswitch-operated
devices, such as the Stryker TPS or SERFAS systems, are normally used. The
iSwitch consolidates the functions of these devices into one wireless footswitch,
freeing the operating room from excessive cables and foot controls.
The iSwitch consists of two main components:
1. A wireless footswitch, which provides pedals similar to those found on
other footswitches and transmits radio signals to a radio receiver console
2. A radio receiver console, which routes commands from the footswitch
to devices that connect to the receiver's rear panel.
Each component and its functions are described in the following pages.
Note The iSwitch is a wireless footswitch designed to replace multiple
wired footswitches that surgeons are accustomed to using.
Operators should ensure that they are completely familiar and
comfortable with the operation of the device. Training may be
required before some operators are thoroughly familiar with how
to properly operate the footswitch. Users should be sure that they
have received adequate training before using this device in
surgical practice.
Note It is recommended to have a wired footswitch available in case of
electromagnetic interference problems with the wireless
connection.
