ZOLL M Series Invasive Blood Pressure
Safety Summary (cont.)
• If the accuracy of measurements is suspect, first check the IBP waveform for artifact such as
catheter whip. Then check the catheter, tubing, transducer, cabling and M Series IBP option for
proper functioning.
• Do not immerse the M Series device, batteries, cables, or transducers in water, solvents, or cleaning
solutions.
• If the M Series device gets wet accidentally, wipe it down with a clean towel.
• Do not sterilize M Series unit or accessories except as specifically recommended in ZOLL
manuals.
• Connect the ECG-out jack and modem (if available) only to other equipment with galvanically
isolated circuits.
• The cable and IBP transducer(s) are defibrillator proof. Using the IBP option introduces no risk of
shock due to defibrillation. Using the IBP option introduces no risk of burns due to electro-surgery.
• Do not reuse single-use transducers.
• Check the transducer packaging to make certain the transducer is sterile.
• Check the expiration date on the transducer packaging. If it has expired, replace the transducer.
• If the device is damaged by age, physical or environmental abuse, check the unit using the
Maintenance Checklist to ensure its safety or remove the unit from use.
• Refer to the transducer manufacturer’s specifications for information regarding volume
displacement.
