WARNING!
Scale error
Ensure that nothing weighs down the scale during system start-up. Doing so
may result in an inaccurate deficit value.
WARNING!
Fluid deficit
The fluid left in the patient must be monitored. The deficit is the total amount of
fluid left in the patient or unaccounted for otherwise. Take notice of the mea-
surement tolerance of the system (see Chapter 10, Technical Data). Estimating
the fluid volume remaining in the patient is the physician's responsibility.
