CSZ Gelli-Roll 193P Instructions D'utilisation page 2

EN
• Physicians order is required for temperature setting and for use of therapy. Patients should be checked at least every 20 minutes or as
directed by a physician. Higher risk patients; including pediatric, temperature sensitive patients and operating room patients should be
checked more frequently.
• Monitor patient skin temperature and condition paying particular attention to all bony prominences. Notify physician for changes in
patient condition.
• Follow physician order/hospital policy for discontinuation of therapy. Notify physician for changes in patient condition.
• The area between the patient and the pad should be kept dry to avoid injury to the patient. Prep solutions have been reported to injure the
skin when allowed to remain between patients and a water-circulating heating pad during prolonged procedures.
• Do not use with a patient with an ischemic limb. Thermal injury may occur.
• Do not use the device distal to arterial cross clamping. Non-observance can lead to thermal injury.
• Leaky pads or hoses should never be used. Water leaks present a risk of patient infection and should be handled accordingly.
• Do not place additional heat sources between the patient and the Gelli-Roll®. Tissue damage may result.
• Do not block fluid pathways with positioning accessories. Patient therapy may be interrupted.
• Do not position Gelli-Roll® at an incline. Potential for unexpected patient movement.
• Proper cleaning procedures must be maintained to prevent cross contamination.
• Do not place sharp objects in contact with pad as punctures may occur. Do not use pins or any instruments with sharp tips to secure pad or
objects to the pad. Water leaks present a risk of patient infection and should be handled accordingly.
•
Caution: Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed healthcare professional.
•
Presence of water or gel on the pad while the pad is not operating may cool the patient.
•
Use of unapproved equipment or hoses is not recommended. The Gelli-Roll® has been designed and tested for use with CSZ
thermal regulating systems only.
•
Do not use alcohol to clean the Gelli-Roll®. Alcohol may cause pad and unit deterioration.
•
Conductive pad therapy effectiveness will be reduced if pad is not in direct contact with the patient. Do not place multiple layers
of sheets, or other objects that will reduce heat transfer between the pad and the patient.
•
The Gelli-Roll® reusable hyper-hyperthermia blanket has a useful life of two (2) years.
•
The Gelli-Roll® reusable hyper-hypothermia blanket is intended to be used by trained healthcare professionals as part of CSZ's thermal
regulating systems, specifically the Blanketrol® II, Blanketrol® III, Hemotherm®, Norm-O-Temp®, or Micro-Temp® LT* to lower or
to raise a patient's temperature and/or maintain a desired patient temperature through conductive heat transfer.
*Note: Only the Cat#193P has been approved for use with the Micro-Temp® LT device.
