ORMED.DJO ARTROMOT-E2 Manual De Operación página 58

– Movements must not cause any pain
or irritation.
– Patients must be fully conscious
while being instructed in the use of
the CPM device and during therapy.
– The choice of the therapy param-
eters to program and of the therapy
protocols to use is restricted to the
responsible physician or therapist.
It is the physician's or therapist's deci-
sion whether or not to use the CPM
device on a specific patient.
− The patient must be familiar with the
functions of the
ARTROMOT®-E2/-E2 compact pro-
gramming unit and the unit must
be within easy reach of the patient,
allowing him or her to stop therapy, if
needed. Patients unable to operate
the programming unit, e.g. paralytic
patients, must never be left unat-
tended during therapy.
– Write the patient's name on the
patient chip card. The card should
only be used for this patient.
If the patient chip card is used for
another patient, be sure to delete the
previous patient's data from the
card first (see sections 4.1 and 5.3,
paragraph "New Patient").
Use original chip cards only.
− All accessories used with the
ARTROMOT®-E2/-E2 compact must be
approved by ORMED.DJO.
– Do not allow parts of the body or
any objects (such as blankets, cush-
ions or cables) to get caught in the
moving parts of the CPM device.
− Always seat the patient on a chair with
four legs and without armrests when
using the ARTROMOT®-E2 compact.
m Warning!
Shock hazard—
Strictly observe the following warnings.
Failure to do so endangers the lives of
the patient, the user and other persons
involved.
− Before use allow the
ARTROMOT®-E2/-E2 compact to reach
room temperature. If the device has
been transported at temperatures
below 0 °C (32°F), leave it to dry
at room temperature for about 2
hours, until any condensation has
disappeared.
– The ARTROMOT®-E2/-E2 compact
must only be operated in dry rooms.
− When disconnecting the device from
the power line, remove the plug from
the wall outlet first, before discon-
necting the cable from the device.
− When connecting the device to
other equipment or when creating a
medical system, check that the sum
of leakage currents will not cause any
hazard. Please contact ORMED.DJO, if
you have questions in this matter.
– Do not use multiple portable socket
outlets (MPSO) to connect the device
to the power line. The
ARTROMOT®-E2/-E2 compact must
be connected to a properly installed
wall outlet with a non-fused
earthed wire. Before connecting the
power cord, it must be completely
unrolled and placed such that it will
not get caught in the moving parts of
the device.
– Before cleaning and service interven-
tions, disconnect the device from
the power line by removing the
power cord from the wall outlet.
– Liquids must not be allowed to en-
ter the CPM device or the program-
ming unit. If liquids have entered into
the device, the
ARTROMOT®-E2/-E2 compact must
be checked by a service technician,
before it can be reused.
