Clinical safety
FUJIFILM SonoSite does not recommend the use of high-frequency
electromedical devices in proximity to its systems. FUJIFILM SonoSite equipment
has not been validated for use with high-frequency electrosurgical devices or
procedures. Use of high-frequency electrosurgical devices in proximity to its
systems may lead to abnormal system behavior or shutdown of the system.
To avoid the risk of a burn hazard, do not use the transducer with high-frequency
surgical equipment. Such a hazard may occur in the event of a defect in the high-
frequency surgical neutral electrode connection.
Changes made to any of the following settings will cause analysis values in the
current (open) study to be cleared. These settings should not be changed before
ending any open study on the system.
