Safety Information

Take account of the following warnings and information. In case of your non-compliance you run
the risk of causing malfunction, damage and injury.
Warning: Only use CardioSecur ACTIVE in accordance with its intended use.
Warning: CardioSecur ACTIVE contains personalized data. It must only be used by the individ-
ual who's personal reference ECG is stored in it.
Warning: The results provided by CardioSecur ACTIVE must not be used as basis for the be-
ginning or changing of therapeutic measures without an independent medical examination.
Warning: ECG readings by CardioSecur ACTIVE are not able to detect all health changes of
cardiac disease! If you notice changes to your state of health, contact your physician instantly.
In case of prevailing symptoms for more than 20 minutes, contact your doctor, even if the re-
sults provided by CardioSecur ACTIVE show no or minor irregularities compared to your refer-
ence ECG.
Warning: Do not attempt to make a diagnosis on the basis of the results and analysis provided
by CardioSecur ACTIVE. Always check with your physician. Self-diagnosis may cause a deteriora-
tion of your state of health or medical condition.
Warning: Provided results by CardioSecur ACTIVE reflect the very moment of a single record-
ing. Your state of health may change rapidly. In case you notice a change in your state of health
contact a physician.
Warning: CardioSecur ACTIVE serves the purpose of detecting newly occurred ischemia and
arrhythmia of the heart. CardioSecur ACTIVE is not designed for continuous monitoring of your
ECG, but evaluates merely a short time window of your heart activity.
Warning: Note that a physician may only receive your ECG recordings and your attached
comments if you are actively linked to the physician through the CardioSecur database. Trans-
mission of ECG data to the linked physician is not guaranteed. In addition, when your ECG data
is received by your physician, this does not guarantee that he or she will perform a diagnosis or
look at the data. It is recommended that you contact him or her directly. This is especially
important in the case of an emergency.
Warning: Before a reading with CardioSecur ACTIVE sit calmly for a minimum of 3 minutes.
Ensure that your posture is relaxed. Being seated with a straight back is ideal. Do not cough or
speak during a reading. Body movements may cause interference influencing the evaluation.
Warning: Do not perform readings when subjected to concussions, e.g. in a moving vehicle,
train or plane.
Warning: Do not perform ECG readings if the attachment points of the electrodes on your skin
are wet, e.g. due to sweat or after bathing.
Warning: Proper functioning of the disposable electrodes is influenced by intense body hair.
Remove regularly hair from your skin at the attachment points of the electrodes.
