•
The MEDUCORE Easy is one of the safest devices in its
class. Nevertheless, misinterpretation of car- diac
rhythms cannot be ruled out completely.
Caution!
•
Disconnect other medical devices which are not defi-
brillation-protected from the patient whilst using the
MEDUCORE Easy.
•
The device is not defibrillation-protected. It is there-
fore essential to remove the electrodes of the
MEDUCORE Easy from a patient's chest if other defi-
brillators are to be used. If this instruction is not fol-
lowed, the MEDUCORE Easy could be damaged.
•
Ensure that the electrodes are in firm contact with the
patient's skin. If this instruction is not followed, air
trapped between the skin and the defibrillation elec-
trodes may lead to burns.
•
Never change the battery/rechargeable battery pack
while the device is preparing a shock ("Preparing to
shock." ) or when it is ready to give a shock ("Press the
flashing shock key!"). If you do so, you could damage
the device.
Electrodes
Warning!
•
Never use electrodes which look damaged, whose
packaging is damaged, or whose expiry date has
passed. If this instruction is not followed, malfunc-
tions may occur causing injuries to users and patients.
•
Replace the electrodes during use of the device if they
are damaged, for example by vigorous chest compres-
sions. If this instruction is not followed, malfunctions
may occur causing injuries to users and patients.
•
Defibrillation electrodes WM 40116 cannot be re-
used. Replace the electrodes with new ones immedi-
ately after use. Use only defibrillation electrodes
WM 40116 obtainable from Weinmann. If other defi-
brillation electrodes are used, Weinmann accepts no
responsibility for any injuries or damage to the device
which may be sustained.
