Important Safety Notes - Beurer ME 90 Gebrauchsanweisung

Electrocardiograms recorded using the ME 90 reflect heart activity at the time of
•
measurement. As such, any changes occurring before or after the measurement is taken
may not necessarily be detected.
The ECG measurements, such as those taken with the ME 90, cannot detect all heart dis-
•
orders. Regardless of the measurement taken using the ME 90, you should consult your
doctor immediately if you experience symptoms that could indicate acute heart disease.
Such symptoms could include, but are not limited to:
- pain or pressure felt on the left of the chest area or abdomen,
- radiating pain in the mouth/jaw/facial area, in the shoulder, arm or hand
- back pain,
- nausea,
- burning sensation in the chest,
- tendency to collapse,
- breathlessness,
- rapid heartbeat or irregular heart rhythm
- especially in combination with these symptoms.
ALWAYS consult a doctor IMMEDIATELY if you experience any of these symptoms. If you
have any doubts, seek an emergency medical examination.
Do not self-diagnose or self-medicate on the basis of the ME 90 measurement without
•
consulting your doctor. In particular, do not start taking any new medication or change
the type and/or dosage of any existing medication without prior approval.
The ME 90 device is not a substitute for a medical examination of your heart function or
•
for medical electrocardiogram recordings, which require more complex measurements.
It is not possible to use the ME 90 device to diagnose illnesses or diseases that may be
•
causing an ECG change. This is exclusively the responsibility of your doctor.
We recommend that you record the ECG curves obtained and that you show these to
•
your doctor if required. This is particularly important when the status messages of the ME
90 do not display the „OK" symbol.

Important safety notes

We recommend against using the device if you have a pacemaker or other implanted de-
vices. Follow the advice given by your doctor, if applicable.
Do not use the device with a defibrillator.
