Patient and Operational Safety

The cardiograph isolates all connections to the patient from electrical ground and all other

conductive circuits in the cardiograph. This reduces the possibility of hazardous currents

passing from the cardiograph through the patient’s heart to ground. To ensure the patient’s

safety and your own please observe the following:

When integrating CardioPerfect devices with non-medical rated equipment, such as a

computer, the addition of an additional protective earth ground or the use of a medically

approved isolation transformer is required for compliance to the IEC 60601-1-1 Medical

System Safety Standard.

Any system components (e.g. treadmill, personal computer, ergo meter) that require to be

connected to an outlet socket shall use only grounded power cords (three-wire power cords

with grounded plugs). Also make sure the outlet accepts the plug and is grounded. Never

adapt a grounded plug to fit an ungrounded outlet by removing the ground prong or ground

clip.

Do not connect Multiple Portable Socket Outlets (MPSO’s) or extension cords to the system.

Do not connect items which are not part of the system. The use of multiple portable socket

outlets and other non-medical electrical equipment poses a safety hazard. Refer to the

Medical System Safety Standard IEC 60601-1 for the requirements of such attachments.

Multiple portable outlet sockets shall not be placed on the floor. Multiple portable outlet

sockets or extension cord shall not be connected to the system. Do not connect items which

are not part of the system. The use of multiple (non-) medical electrical equipment connected

to the same patient may pose a safety hazard due to the summation of leakage currents from

each instrument. Any combination of (non-) medical electrical equipment should be evaluated

by local safety personnel before put into service. Multiple portable outlet sockets use without

an isolation transformer is disapproved unless casual access for additional equipment is

impeded or prevented.

Accessories

Use of accessories other than those recommended by Welch Allyn may compromise product

performance. The Welch Allyn warranty can only be honored if you use Welch Allyn approved

accessories and replacement parts.
