The following sections provide you with the basic initial steps
required to setup and start the Prostiva RF Therapy Model 8930
Radio Frequency Generator.
The next chapter, Chapter 4, provides the detailed Prostiva RF
Therapy instructions for use.
Appropriate patient selection is one of the first steps toward
ensuring the safe and effective use of the Medtronic Prostiva RF
Therapy. Additionally, treatment with the Prostiva RF Therapy
requires that you read and understand all warnings, precautions,
and instructions for use. For example, when preparing the patient
for treatment, it is important to ensure that the return electrode is
correctly positioned on the lower back and applied only once to
the patient's skin. Also, during the procedure it is important to
monitor and respond to the user interface information provided on
the radio frequency generator display screen.
This Model 8930 Radio Frequency Generator has been tested
and found to comply with the limits for medical devices (see:
"Electromagnetic Compatibility Declaration (EN60601-1-2)" on
page 99). This testing shows the device provides reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a typical medical
installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will
not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to other devices or is negatively impacted by
other devices, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following:
Reorient or relocate the devices.
■
Increase the separation between the devices.
■
Connect the equipment to an outlet on a different circuit.
■
Consult the manufacturer or field service technician for help.
