TELEMETRY PRECAUTIONS

For proper management of the telemetry installation, consult your Fukuda Denshi representative concerning the following:

• Plan the installation of your telemetry system taking into account

your entire medical facility needs and plant requirements.

• Be sure the antenna system installed meets the facility and plant

requirements.

WARNING

This radio frequency device is susceptible to interference from outside sources. Interference may prevent the monitoring of patients connected to this devices. If a problems exists, contact your local service representative.

To assure safe and reliable operation, observe the following precautions:

• Be sure that no other devices are using the frequency assigned to this

transmitter.

• This device is susceptible to interference from electrosurgical knives

and other computerized equipment. If problems occur, contact your local Fukuda Denshi service representative.

• Any obstruction such as reinforced concrete or large metallic surfaces

between the receiver and the transmitter can affect reception. If problems occur contact your local Fukuda Denshi service representative.

• When the low battery alarm is present, replace the battery.

CAUTION

The manufacturers, installers and users of WMTS equipment are cautioned that the operation of this equipment could result in harmful interference to other nearby medical devices.

uipment in

Contents described here are general safety considerations to be taken for proper operation of medical electrical equipment and for the safety of both the patient and operator. Safety considerations specific to the use of the LX-5630 are described on the next page.

WARNING

Strangulation Hazard! l Make sure all patient cables, leadwires, and tubing are positioned

away from the patient’s head to minimize the risk of accidental strangulation.

l Under no circumstances should any pouch be tied solely around a

patient’s neck.

CAUTION

1. Do not use the equipment unless you are familiar with its operation.

2. Observe the following when installing or storing the equipment:

· Select a place where the equipment may not be contaminated with splashing water.

· Consider the atmospheric pressure, temp erature and humidity and provide

adequate ventilation. Avoid direct sunlight. The equipment should not be installed or stored in a location where it may be dust, saline or sulfur.

· Avoid inclination, vibration and shock, even during transport to ensure stable operating conditions.

· Do not install or store the equipment where chemicals are stored or gases are

generated.

3. Precautions before Operation

· The equipment is not designed to be explosion-proof. Do not use the eq the presence of flammable gasses or anesthetics.

· Make sure the equipment is operating safely and normally at all times. Ensure that all cords and cables are correctly connected.

· Improper use of multiple instruments simultaneously may result in erroneous information or lead to a hazardous accident.

4. Precautions during Operation

· Do not operate the equipment beyond the time period required for diagnosis, monitoring or treatment.

· Observe the equipment and patient constantly for any abnormality.

· If the equipment or patient indicates any abnormality, stop the equipment from

operating or take proper measures (e.g. disconnect transducers and electrodes) to ensure patient safety.

· Instruct the patient not to contact the equipment.

iii

period of time,

sure to observe the

operation manual of the electrosurgical

instructions

CAUTION

5. Cares after Operation

· Disconnect the cables by holding the connector plugs. Do not apply excessive force to cords by pulling.

· Keep the equipment clean in preparation for the next use.

6. If the equipment is out of order, ensure patient safety by immediately turning the equipment off and disconnecting electrodes and/or transducers from the patient. Contact your nearest Fukuda Denshi representative and label the device as "OUT OF ORDER".

7. Do not disassemble or attempt service on the equipment. Contact your nearest Fukuda Denshi representative for service.

8. Maintenance and Inspection

· Be sure to perform periodic inspection of the equipment and accessories.

· Before operating the equipment which has not been used for a long

make sure that the equipment operates normally and safely.

9. When using an electrosurgical unit or defibrillator in conjunction with this equipment, take care of the following.

· The high-frequency energy produced by electrosurgery equipment may result in burns to the patient or possible damage to the equipment. Be precautionary instructions described in the unit.

· Some types of equipment may be damaged by the energy discharged by a defibrillator. Ensure a thorough understanding of the precautionary described in the operation manual of the equipment before using a defibrillator.

· Some types of equipment other than electrosurgical units and defibrillators may cause accidental hazards to the patient and operator when operated under adverse conditions. Read the operation manual attached to each individual unit and understand the precautionary instructions prior to use.

CAUTION

Some pacemaker pulses are difficult or not possible to detect. This is dependent on the amplitude and width of the pacemaker pulse in addition to the type of pacemaker and lead type used (unipolar, bipolar, etc.).

CAUTION

QRS detection allows for detection of low amplitude ECG. But if excessive artifact is present on the ECG waveform, the noise may be detected as QRS in error.

CAUTION

l Make sure each receiving telemetry channel corresponds to that of

the transmitter worn by the patient.

l Instruct the patient wearing a telemetry transmitter to remain

within the range of the antenna system.

l To avoid interference from other transmitters in the adjacent area

or hospital, make sure the proper channel identification and group codes are used.

l Refer system settings to your Fukuda Denshi service

representative.

CAUTION

Do not use in high humidity or in areas of high oxygen concentration.

1. General Description

The LX-5630 is a radio telemetry transmitter designed for m onitoring the ECG, respiration, SpO2 (arterial oxygen saturation) and pulse waveform. In the continuous mode, the transmitter will monitor ECG, respiration, SpO2 and pulse waveform for 3 continuous days with two "AA" size alkaline battery. In the intermittent mode, the transmitter measures the SpO2 every 30 seconds, and monitors ECG and respiration continuously for 5 days. Pulse waveform will not be measured in this mode. The LX-5630 is provided with LCD display to show SpO2 measurement, pulse waveform amplitude, SpO2 alarm ON/OFF, battery status, ECG electrode status, SpO2 probe status, and operation mode. Before using this transmitter, read also the operation manual for the patient monitor at receiving side before using this transmitter.

WARNING

Operation of this equipment requires the prior coordination with a frequency coordinator designated by the FCC for the Wireless Medical Telemetry Service.
