Safe Handling of the ICS 3000
Intended Use
The ICS 3000 is intended for use by physicians and
trained medical personnel. To use the system,
individuals must have a fundamental medical
understanding of the respective therapy and detailed
knowledge of how the implant functions and the
conditions for its use. The operator should be present
at all times when the ICS 3000 is in use.
Residual risk No risks are associated with the programming system
if it is used correctly and has been serviced and
inspected according to BIOTRONIK specifications. The
risk evaluation by the Risk Management Team has
determined that the residual risk is as low as
reasonably possible.
Safety Instructions
Note: The ECG connection makes electrical contact with the
patient via the electrodes. It is an applied BF-type part
and is defibrillation-proof when the approved patient
cable is used.
Caution! Never simultaneously touch the patient and connector
components that conduct safety extra-low voltage.
Note: When working with the software, maintain minimum
amplitudes or values of physiologic patient signals. If
these values are not met, inaccurate results may be
produced.
WARNING! Do not use the ICS 3000 on the patient in conjunction
with RF-surgical equipment.
WARNING! During diagnosis, therapy or implantation with the
ICS 3000, keep emergency equipment ready: external
defibrillator and external stimulator, devices for
monitoring cardiac activity.
5 Safety Instructions
Device Combinations
Caution! When using devices in combinations, it is absolutely
essential that all the devices are connected to
permanently installed outlets of the same power
supply destined for medical use. Do not use any
outlets that can be moved (such as extension cables,
multiple outlets, etc.).
• Connect only devices of Safety Class I which meet the
standards EN 60950 or IEC 950 and are at least 1.50 m
away from the patient. Before starting the devices,
check the overall leakage currents in accordance with
EN 60601-1-1.
• Ensure that the leakage currents do not exceed the
following maximum values when operating the device
within the patient’s vicinity (* NC Normal Condition /
** SFC Single Fault Condition):
NC* SFC**
Housing leakage current 0.1 mA 0.5 mA
Ground leakage current 0.5 mA 1.0 mA
Patient leakage current 0.01 mA = 0.05 mA =
0.1 mA ~ 0.5 mA ~
Patient auxiliary current 0.01 mA = 0.05 mA =
0.1 mA ~ 0.5 mA ~
Caution! Connecting additional devices to the ICS (monitor,
CDM 3000, external printer) may cause leakage
current limits to be exceeded. Combine only devices
that comply with the standards EN 60950 or IEC 950
and that are set up outside of the patient environment
at a distance of at least 1.50 meters. For each device
combination, compliance with the overall leakage
currents must be established and documented before
putting it into operation. However, the test must be
repeated in accordance with legal requirements and
at least once a year.
6 Safety Instructions
Accessories
• Use only accessories that have been approved by
BIOTRONIK. BIOTRONIK-approved device
combinations can be used if the device to be
connected complies with the IEC 601 / EN 60601 / VDE
0750 standards series and this conformity is
substantiated by CE certification conducted by an
independent, Notified Body.
Caution! Using unapproved accessories can impair the
electromagnetic compatibility, cause leakage
currents to exceed permissible levels, reduce the
dielectric strength, and cause functional disturbances
in both the hardware and software.
Cables
Caution! The plugs of the patient cable may not touch any
conductive or grounded components! Secure any

However, strong electromagnetic fields can be
generated by electrical devices and lines (e.g. power
lines, electric motors, PCs, monitors, etc.) in the
immediate vicinity of ICS 3000, which impair the
functioning of ICS 3000. This could lead to an
interruption in the telemetric connection to the
implant, to an erroneous display of the ECG or IEGM,
to malfunctions in operating procedures or similar
problems. If it is not possible to switch off the
interfering device, maintain a minimum distance to
the electromagnetic environment as specified in the
appendix of this manual (see page 42).
Caution! Pay attention to the following device disturbances:
— An unexpected power-down of the device;
— Detection of spontaneous cardiac events not
displayed on the ECG/IEGM screen;
— Interference from an indeterminate source.
Action to take — Turn off the electrical device causing the
interference.
— Remove the source of the interference from the
vicinity of the ICS 3000.
— Move the ICS 3000 away from the vicinity of the
source of interference.
— Switch the ICS 3000 off and then on again.
