Patient safety
The design of the medical device, the accompany-
ing literature, and the labeling on the medical
device are based on the assumption that the pur-
chase and use of the equipment are restricted to
trained professionals, and that certain inherent
characteristics of the medical device are known to
the trained operator. Instructions, warnings, and
caution statements are limited, therefore, largely to
the specifics of the Dräger design.
This publication excludes references to various
hazards which are obvious to a medical
professional and operator of this medical device, to
the consequences of medical device misuse, and
to potentially adverse effects in patients with
abnormal conditions.
Medical device modification or misuse can be
dangerous.
Patient monitoring
The operators of the medical device are
responsible for choosing appropriate safety
monitoring that supplies adequate information on
medical device performance and patient condition.
Patient safety may be achieved through a wide
variety of means ranging from electronic surveil-
lance of medical device performance and patient
condition, to simple, direct observation of clinical
signs.
The responsibility for the selection of the best level
of patient monitoring lies solely with the medical
device operator.
Functional safety
The essential performance of the Oxylog 3000 is
defined as:
Appropriate delivery of ventilation to the patient-
connection port or generation of an alarm condition.
Appropriate monitoring
Not setting appropriate alarm limits could suppress
alarms related to:
– acute changes in the patient’s condition
– incorrect settings and faulty handling
– equipment malfunctions.
CAUTION
Have a supply of extra batteries available.
WARNING
The monitoring functionality of the Oxylog
3000 ensures appropriate monitoring of
ventilation therapy. To ensure appropriate
monitoring during ventilation always set the
following alarm limits:
– airway pressure, Paw
– expiratory minute volume, MV
– breathing frequency.
