The device is only intended for use with flexible fluid containers. Do not use glass
containers as they might break. Fluid cannot flow quickly enough due to the
vacuum being generated inside of the bottle. Risk of implosion.
Air embolisms
An air embolism can be the result of air contained in the tube set or connected
instrument reaching the patient. Make sure that there is always fluid in the bag
to prevent air from being aspirated into the patient.
Set up the device in such a way as to allow for easy monitoring of the display
values, device functions, and access to the control elements.
Position the device such that it is easy to operate and disconnect.
Endoscope
The device may only be connected with endoscopes designed for and featuring
the technical specification permitting such a combined use. Any utilized
endoscopes must comply with the most recent versions of EC 60601-2-18 and
ISO 8600.
The device can tilt, if unauthorized or unsuitable bags or containers are used, or
if a load on one side is too heavy.
Balancing error
The complete system is composed of the weighing system and the stand system,
each of which include their own components. The individual components may
not touch one another, in order not to compromise exactness of measurement.
Please pay attention that the bag, tubes, container, equipotential cable and
other parts of the weighing system do not come into contact with the pump unit,
the carrier plate, the unit-carrying frame and the roller base. Pay attention that
the load controller and its O-ring do not touch the scale pole. The secretion
containers must hang freely and may not be damaged in any way.
Make sure that neither the mains cable nor the equipotential cable touch the
scale system. The device may only be operated with angular equipotential MC
plugs.
Fluid volume/Sodium concentration
It is necessary to monitor the fluids left in the patient and the concentration of
sodium in the blood serum. The total fluid volume the device has lost is the
deficit amount. Take note of the measurement tolerance of the system.
Estimating the fluid volume remaining in the patient is the doctor's
responsibility.
