As with electronic equipment, Radio Frequency (RF) interference between the cardiograph and any existing RF transmitting or receiving equipment at the installation site, including electrosurgical equipment, should be evaluated carefully and any limitations noted before the equipment is placed in service.
Use of accessories other than those recommended by Philips may compromise product performance.
The information in this guide applies to the M1771/M1770 PageWriter 200/ 300pi Cardiograph. This information is subject to change without notice. Philips shall not be liable for errors contained herein or for incidental or consequential damages in connection with the furnishing, performance, or use of this material.

Radio frequency generation from electrosurgical equipment and close proximity transmitters may seriously degrade performance. Like all electronic devices, this cardiograph is susceptible to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Electrostatic discharge typically occurs when electrostatic energy is transferred to the patient, the electrodes, or the cardiograph. ESD may result in ECG artifact that may appear as narrow spikes on the cardiograph display or on the printed report. When ESD occurs, the cardiograph’s ECG interpretation may be inconsistent with the physician’s interpretation. Philips assumes no liability for failures resulting from RF interference between Philips medical electronics and any radio frequency generating equipment at levels exceeding those established by applicable standards.
THIS PRODUCT IS NOT INTENDED FOR HOME USE. IN THE U.S., FEDERAL LAW RESTRICTS THIS DEVICE TO SALE ON OR BY THE ORDER OF A PHYSICIAN.
Medical Device Directive The M1771A/M1770A PageWriter 200/ 300pi Cardiograph complies with the requirements of the Medical Device Directive 93/42/EEC and carries the 0123 mark accordingly.
