Patient hazard
The

attending physician with creating a diagnosis.
− For the creation of a precise diagnosis and for the initiation of
therapies, in addition to the use of the seca 515/514 , careful
examinations must be conducted by the attending physician and
the results of these taken into consideration.
− The responsibility for diagnoses and the therapies derived from
them lies with the attending physician.
ATTENTION!
Data loss
• Before you save and re-use values measured with the
seca 515/
514 (e.g. in the PC software seca 115 or in a hospital information
system), make sure that the measured values are plausible.
• If measured values have been transmitted from the software
seca 515/514 to the PC software seca 115 or to a hospital
information system, make sure before re-use that the measured
values are plausible and assigned to the correct patient.
Handling packaging material WARNING!
Danger of suffocation
Packaging material made of plastic film (bags) presents a danger of
suffocation.
− Store packaging material out of the reach of children.
− If the original packaging material is no longer available, only use
plastic bags with safety holes in order to reduce the danger of
suffocation.
NOTE:
Store the original packaging material for future use (e.g. returning
for maintenance).
