The ultrasound system has been tested and found to comply with the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) limits for medical devices to IEC 60601-1-2:2001. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a typical medical installation.
WARNING: The Sonosite SII ultrasound system should not be used adjacent to or stacked with other equipment. If such use occurs, verify that the SonoSite SII ultrasound system operates normally in that configuration.
Caution: Medical electrical equipment requires special precautions regarding EMC and must be installed and operated according to these instructions. Portable and mobile RF communications equipment can affect the ultrasound system.
Electromagnetic interference (EMI) from other equipment or interference sources could result in performance disruption of the ultrasound system. Evidence of disruption may include image degradation or distortion, erratic readings, equipment ceasing to operate, or other incorrect functioning. If this occurs, survey the site to determine the source of disruption, and take the following actions to eliminate the source(s).
•Turn equipment in the vicinity off and on to isolate disruptive equipment.
•Relocate or re-orient interfering equipment.
•Increase distance between interfering equipment and your ultrasound system.
•Manage use of frequencies close to ultrasound system frequencies.
•Remove devices that are highly susceptible to EMI.
•Lower power from internal sources within facility control (such as paging systems).
•Label devices susceptible to EMI.
•Educate clinical staff to recognize potential EMI-related problems.
•Eliminate or reduce EMI with technical solutions (such as shielding).
•Restrict use of personal communicators (cell phones, computers) in areas with devices susceptible to EMI.
•Share relevant EMI information with others, particularly when evaluating new equipment purchases which may generate EMI.
•Purchase medical devices that comply with IEC 60601-1-2 EMC Standards.
Caution: To avoid the risk of increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased immunity, use only accessories and peripherals recommended by FUJIFILM SonoSite. Connection of accessories and peripherals not recommended by FUJIFILM SonoSite to the ultrasound system may result in malfunction of the ultrasound system or other medical electrical devices in the area. Contact FUJIFILM SonoSite or your local representative for a list of accessories and peripherals available from or recommended by FUJIFILM SonoSite. See the FUJIFILM SonoSite accessories user guide.
Caution: Electrostatic discharge (ESD), or static shock, is a naturally occurring phenomenon. ESD is common in conditions of low humidity, which can be caused by heating or air conditioning. ESD is a discharge of the electrical energy from a charged body to a lesser or non-charged body. The degree of discharge can be significant enough to cause damage to a transducer or an ultrasound system. The following precautions can help reduce ESD: anti-static spray on carpets, anti-static spray on linoleum, and anti-static mats.
