Accidental activation of the argon handle directly in front of the endoscope
optics can destroy the optics:
•
In endoscopic applications with video endoscopes, the argon plasma
beam must not be directed at the camera chip.
•
In endoscopic applications, the electrode tip must protrude from the
endoscope when activated.
Wrong/bad argon gas can cause injuries to the patient:
•
Argon of 4.8 quality will be sterile in the gas cylinder due to the
manufacturing process. To ensure sterility, the cylinder valve and the
gas outlet on the gas supply unit should be disinfected before
connection.
If patients have a pacemaker, consult a cardiologist before the application.
3.3 EMC instructions
Medical electrical devices are subject to special EMC precautions, so please
follow the instructions detailed below.
•
BOWA accessories are designed to be connected to
specific HF devices only. For permissible connection combinations, see
chapter 10. Technische Daten, page 34.
•
Using the accessories with medical devices from third-party
manufacturers may result in higher emission levels or reduced
interference immunity.
NOTE:
Combining medical devices is safe only if
•
the relevant instructions for use permit the desired combination or
•
the intended use and the interface specification of the products used in
the combination are compatible.
The Instructions for use and interface specifications of medical devices used
in combination must be strictly observed.
3.4 Patients with pacemakers
Pacemaker malfunction or damage can endanger the life of the patient or
result in irreversible injuries to the patient.
Never perform outpatient operations on patients with pacemakers.
In cases of patients with pacemakers, consult the cardiologist before
carrying out HF surgery.
Set the pacemaker to a fixed demand frequency.
Make sure that the pacemaker does not come into contact with the
HF electrode.
Have a functioning defibrillator on hand.
Carry out a postoperative pacemaker check.
