1 - 2 BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual
• Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring. Turning the alarm
volume to a low level or off may result in a hazard to the patient. Always keep the patient under
close surveillance.
• Alarm settings should be customized according to patient situations.
• Do not place the equipment or accessories in any position that might cause it to fall on the patient.
• Do not start or operate the equipment unless the setup was verified to be correct.
• To avoid inadvertent disconnection, route all cables in a way to prevent a stumbling hazard. Wrap
and secure excess cabling to reduce risk of entanglement by patients or personnel.
• The physiological data and alarm messages displayed on the equipment are for reference only and
cannot be directly used for diagnostic interpretation. The equipment should not be used as the sole
basis for medical decisions. It must be used in conjunction with clinical signs and symptom. If any
measurement seems questionable, first check the patient’s vital signs by alternate means and then
check the equipment for proper functioning.
1.1.2 Cautions
• Use only parts and accessories specified in this manual.
• Disposable accessories are not designed to be reused. Reuse may cause a risk of contamination and
affect the measurement accuracy.
• Ensure that the equipment is supplied with continuous electric power during operation from the
mains power or batteries. Sudden power failure may cause data loss.
• When no battery is installed, ensure that the monitor is supplied with continuous electric power
during operation. Sudden power failure may lead to data loss.
• This equipment is intended for single patient use.
• Store and use the equipment in specified environmental condition. The monitor and accessories
may not meet the performance specification due to aging, stored or used outside the specified
temperature and humidity range.
• Magnetic and electrical fields are capable of interfering with the proper performance of the
equipment. For this reason make sure that all external devices operated in the vicinity of the
equipment comply with the relevant EMC requirements. Mobile phones, X-ray equipment, and MRI
devices are possible sources of interference as they may emit higher levels of electromagnetic
radiation.
• Always install or carry the equipment properly to avoid damage caused by drops, impacts, strong
vibrations or other mechanical forces.
• Dry the equipment immediately in case of rain or water spray.
• Some settings are password protected and can only be changed by authorized personnel. Contact
your department manager or biomedical engineering department for the passwords used at your
facility.
• Do not loop the patient cabling into a tight coil or wrap around the device, as this can damage the
patient cabling.
• Dispose of the package material as per the applicable waste control regulations. Keep it out of
children’s reach.
• At the end of its service life, the equipment, as well as its accessories, must be disposed of in
compliance with the guidelines regulating the disposal of such products. If you have any questions
concerning disposal of the equipment, please contact Mindray.
