reflection from structures, objects and people.
a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios,
amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the
electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured
field strength in the location in which the MR200 is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the MR200 should be
observed to ensure normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-
orienting or relocating the MR200.
b Over the frequency range 150 KHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

CAUTIONS
• When making connections to the rear panel of the MR200, ensure that the final installation
complies with IEC/EN 60601-1-1, General Requirements for the Safety of Medical
Electrical Systems, to assure operator and patient safety. Always check the summation of
leakage currents when the MR200 is connected to additional external equipment.
• Where the integrity of the external protective conductor in the installation or its arrangement
is in doubt, the MR200 shall be operated from batteries.
Replacing Cart Batteries
Warning
WARNING
Cart batteries contain ferrous materials that are attracted to the MR magnetic field. Do not
install or remove the cart batteries when closer than the 1,000 gauss (0.1 T) field line, as
measured from the center line of the MR bore to the MR200. The batteries will be attracted
to the magnetic field, possibly causing patient or user injury.
CAUTION
Never force a battery into a battery compartment as it will damage the battery and/or the cart.

WARNING
The use model specifies one IP5 per MR200 system. If more than one IP5 is present on the
MR200 system, there is an increased risk of units within the system not synchronizing and
displaying incorrect or corrupted settings.
CAUTION
If the monitor’s settings are adjusted since they were last recalled or stored (manually, or via
synchronization - if using an IP5 ), the current setup name (see page 2-14) will be appended with a
plus symbol (+). The symbol will only be removed if the current settings are saved (see page 3-5)
or if different settings are recalled (see page 3-4). Always confirm the proper settings for the

WARNING
Do not move the MR200 inside the 1,500 gauss field line of the MR
magnet or within 1.5 m (4.9 feet), whichever is greater, as
measured from the center line of the bore. Always secure the
wheel locks when the MR200 is located in the MR magnet room.
Failure to properly place the MR200 in the MR magnet room will
result in monitoring system failure, and possible patient or user injury.

CAUTIONS
• Never apply excessive force, lean against, stack or drape objects over the guide handles;
instead, use specially designed hose management handle hooks; see page 1-28 for details.
• If the MR200 rolls to the face of the MR system due to magnetically induced pull force, Do
not attempt to dislodge the MR200 by pulling from the display panel or guide handles;
instead, dislodge the MR200 by gently pulling from the lowest point of the base. This will
prevent the base of the unit from experiencing higher MR pull forces in the vertical
direction.

WARNING
Do not move the MR200 inside the 1,500 gauss field line of the MR magnet or
within 1.5 m (4.9 feet), whichever is greater, as measured from the center line
of the bore. Always secure the wheel locks when the MR200 is located in the
MR magnet room. Failure to properly place the MR200 in the MR magnet
room will result in monitoring system failure, and possible patient or user
injury.
CAUTIONS
• If the MR200 rolls to the face of the MR system due to magnetically induced pull force, do
not attempt to dislodge the MR200 by pulling from the display panel or guide handles;
instead, dislodge the MR200 by gently pulling from the lowest point of the base. This will
prevent the base of the unit from experiencing higher MR pull forces in the vertical
direction.
• Field strength variations may require you to move the MR200 away from the MR system if
patient monitoring abnormalities or malfunctions are observed. Prior to clinical use, ensure
that the allowable distance from the MR system is maintained for proper operation because
variations in a particular MR magnet room (due to magnetic shielding techniques,
manufacturer variability, future enhancements, etc.) can make it difficult to distinguish the
1,500 gauss level, as measured from the center line of the MR bore. The MR200’s gauss
sensor can be used to determine the correct position of the cart in the MR magnet room.

System Power-Up and Communications Verification
WARNING
Always perform operational verification prior to use and during monitoring by ensuring
proper communications between the MR200, the wireless modules and the IP5 (if equipped).
Failure to ensure proper communications can result in the loss of patient monitoring and the
loss of data transfer in networked systems equipped with an IP5. If a device fails to function
properly, remove it from use and contact technical support.

precautions,warningsandtheguidelinesbelow,theseriskscanbeminimized.TheECG
parameterisintendedforECGmonitoringmodeandnotdiagnosticECGmonitoring.
WARNINGS
•The MR200 is not intended for use with patients using pacemakers or electrical
stimulators.
• Arrhythmias, erratic heartbeats, operation of electrical stimulators, pacemakers and
patient motion can result in inaccurate readings. Rate meters may continue to count
pacemaker rates during occurrences of cardiac arrest or some arrhythmias. Do not
rely entirely upon rate meter alarms. If questionable readings are obtained, check the
patient's vital signs by alternate means before administering medication.
CAUTION
Pacer pulses are not specifically rejected by the MR200 and may be treated as part of MRI
gradient noise. Gradient filtering attempts to remove high frequency pulse shaped waveforms from
the ECG signal which may resemble pacer waveforms, and it is possible that the pacer waveform
may be removed with the gradient noise.

CAUTIONS
• If dropped, the wECG module must be verified for correct operation before use.
• Guard against the accidental ingress of liquid into the module, as measurements made by the
device can be adversely affected.

WARNINGS
•The patient connector inputs for all parameters are protected against the use of a
defibrillator by internal circuitry when the recommended patient cables or accessories
are used.
• Defibrillation and electrosurgery: Do not touch the patient, or table, or instruments,
during defibrillation.
• The MR200 can be used in the presence of defibrillators or electrosurgery units,
provided the equipment being used is in good working order, meeting appropriate
safety standards, is properly grounded and is operated correctly in the appropriate
manner and environment. Improperly grounded equipment can be a safety hazard
and can also cause interference to the ECG signal and result in a noisy ECG signal
waveform and inaccurate heart rate measurements.
CAUTION
When using a defibrillator, do not introduce discharges of 360 joules or more, repeated five times
over 5 minutes. Read the safety instructions provided with the defibrillator. The MR200 Cart is
designed to withstand defibrillation and will recover within 5 seconds (per IEC 60601-1,
Requirements for the Safety of Medical Electrical Equipment), and IEC 60601-2-49, Particular
requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of multifunction patient monitoring

• The ECG Skin Prep gel contains light abrasive pumice and saline that clean and enhance
the conductive properties of the skin, thus enhancing ECG performance. This practice also
helps remove ambient artifacts, such as the 50/60 hertz noise generated by the MR
environment.
• Isopropyl/rubbing alcohol must not be used to prep the site as it breaks down the conductive

WARNINGS
• Never use any ECG lead cables other than the specified ECG lead cables.
• High levels of RF energy may cause patient heating or burns.
• Lead cables that become inadvertently looped during an MRI examination may act as
conductive lines for RF induced currents, resulting in excessive heating and possible
burns. When lead cables or other cables form a conductive loop in contact with the
patient's tissue, minor to severe burning can result. Please refer to the additional
information in Appendix D to prevent excessive heating associated with MRI
procedures. Follow steps to minimize the risks of MRI-related heating on page 4-12.

Positioning the wECG Module and Lead Cable for Scanning
WARNINGS
• When applying electrodes or connecting the patient lead cable, ensure that the
electrodes or connectors never contact other conductive materials including grounded
conductors. In order to prevent contact with other conductors or earth ground, make
sure all the electrodes or connectors are properly attached to the patient.
• No other electrical conductors (e.g. wires, leads, probes, etc.) should be placed within
the MRI bore at the same time as the ECG lead wires. Electrode heating risk increases
when multiple conductive cables and sensors are placed in the bore with the patient.
Mixing of conductors from various manufacturers (catheters, temperature sensors,
etc.) is not recommended. Multiple electrical conductors within the MRI bore can
allow cross-coupling between these various conductors, and appear as a large antenna
for RF energy pick-up, which will result in electrode heating, and possibly skin burns.
It is always important to identify if the patient has any metallic wires, conductors,
implants, stents, etc. within their body which will act as cross-coupling conductors. If
these are present, ECG monitoring may not be able to be performed without
experiencing electrode heating. Non-conductive tubes, air-lines, etc.—including NiBP
cuffs and hoses, EtCO2 and/or oxygen air-lines, and SPO2 sensors—can be used safely
as these items do not include electrically conductive materials. The MR200 has been
validated for use with all accessories specified in the accessory list.
• Circular, U-shaped or S-shaped loops in the patient lead cable should be avoided to
reduce the risk of heating.
ThewECGmodulemaybeusedintheMRsystembore,althoughthemodulemustnotbeplaced

4‐12MonitoringECGExpressionMR200InstructionsforUse
NOTE
Follow these guidelines to ensure the best possible performance of the wECG module, especially
during harsh scan sequences (with PNS-peripheral nerve stimulation-levels above 80 percent):
1. Place the modules on or near the patient as close to the bore iso-center as possible
(considering the scan to be performed).
2. Keep the wireless module outside the field of view.
3. Place the modules as close to the bore opening as possible. (If the modules can be placed
outside the bore, positioning at the bore iso-center is not necessary.)
4. Place the modules on a cushioned surface to minimize MR vibrations.
Warning
WARNING
If the wECG module is positioned incorrectly when used within the MR magnet room, the
following factors may cause ECG waveform distortion and numeric inaccuracies:
• Fast magnetic field changes usually found with, but not limited to, scan sequences
using Peripheral Nerve Stimulation (PNS) levels above 80 percent.
• Severe vibrations induced by scan sequences using PNS levels above 80 percent.
• The distance from the bore iso-center in the x, y, or z directions.
Minimizing the Risk of MRI-Related Heating
CAUTION
Placing the wECG module within the FOV may interrupt ECG monitoring during the MRI
procedure and cause MRI image artifacts.

NOTES
• Due to the variety of MRI sequence characteristics, if the filter recommendations below do
not provide optimum performance in all cases, the selection of another filter mode may
improve ECG performance.
• ECG performance can be affected by electrode placement, the MRI procedure, the image
slice angle and slice thickness. In situations where ECG performance is not optimal, select
the ECG lead (I, II, III, AVL, AVR, or AVF) that provides the best performance.
• For cases not requiring cardiac gating, start with the Primary filter mode (depending on the
MRI sequence) and switch filters if a gradient artifact is noticed. If a gradient artifact is still
present, check signal strength and try lead I or III.

Applying the SPO2 Attachment to the Patient
ReadthewarningsbeforeapplyinganSPO2attachmenttothepatient.
WARNINGS
•General fit: If a clip or grip is too loose, it might compromise the optimal alignment or
dislocate. If the clip or grip is too tight (for example, if the application site is too large
or becomes large due to edema), excessive pressure may be applied resulting in venous
congestion distal from the application site, which could lead to interstitial edema,
hypoxemia, tissue malnutrition, and inaccurate measurements. Skin irritations may
occur as a result of the clip or grip being attached to one location for too long.
Periodically inspect the clip or grip application site and change the application site at
least every 4 hours. Exercise care when using tape to secure the clip or grip, as the
stretch memory properties of most tapes can apply unintended pressure to the site
easily.
• Extremities to avoid: Avoid placing the clip or grip on extremities with an arterial
catheter, intravascular venous infusion line, or inflated blood pressure cuff. Failure to
do so may result in inaccurate readings or false alarm indications.
• Protect the sensor from contact with any liquid. If the sensor, clips or grips show signs
of damage like exposed fibers, replace the part immediately. Do not use damaged
equipment.
• Keep detached grips and clips away from small children to avoid possibility of
swallowing.

Assessing Suspicious SPO2 Readings

quality.
WARNINGS
•Always shield (for example, cover with opaque material) the SPO2 clip or grip from
extraneous incidental light sources, as such light can cause erroneous SPO2 readings
or pulse detection errors.
• SPO2 monitoring requires the detection of valid pulses to correctly determine SPO2
and heart rate values. Any of the following items can lead to inaccuracies of the SPO2
readings and/or prolonged measurement time: Ambient light (including photodynamic
therapy), physical movement (patient and imposed motion), arrhythmias and/or
erratic heartbeats, diagnostic testing, electromagnetic interference, electrosurgical
units, dysfunctional hemoglobin, intravascular dyes, presence of dyes or pigments at
the application site, and inappropriate positioning of the pulse oximeter attachment. If
questionable readings are obtained, check the patient’s vital signs by alternate means
before administering medication.
•Attachment movement, ambient light (especially strobe or flashing lights) or
electromagnetic interference can give unexpected intermittent readings when the
sensor is not attached to a patient. Bandage and grip attachment designs are
particularly sensitive to minimal movement that might occur when the sensor is
dangling, not attached to the patient. An unapplied sensor may cause readings to be
displayed on the monitor. To avoid misdiagnosis, ensure the sensor is applied to
patient correctly.

WARNINGS
•Use clinical judgment to decide whether to perform a repeated series of NiBP
measurements because of the risk of purpura, ischemia and neuropathy in the limb
with the NiBP cuff.
• Arrhythmias, erratic heartbeats and patient motion can result in inaccurate readings
and/or prolonged measurements. If questionable readings are obtained, check the
patient’s vital signs by alternate means before administering medication.
• The performance of the automated sphygmomanometer can be affected by extremes of
temperature, humidity and altitude.
• An alarm will sound when the MR200 is too close to the MR magnet and shutdown of
NiBP monitoring will occur. Always position the MR200 as indicated on page 2-6.
CAUTIONS
• Substitution of components or accessories different from those supplied or recommended
can result in measurement errors.
• NiBP accuracy has not been verified in the presence of some common arrhythmias such as
atrial or ventricular premature beats or atrial fibrillation.

CAUTION
There may be occasions when a particular mode is not suitable for its apparent category of patients
based on age alone. In these cases, a clinical decision shall be made to use another patient type,
NiBP cuff size or measurement technique. The clinical decision shall be based on all of the factors
listed in Determining the Patient Type (see page 3-10) to ensure the best possible and most timely
NiBP measurement acquisition.
NOTE
ADULT and PEDIATRIC types dictate use of a larger NiBP cuff and interconnect hose size,
while NEO uses smaller sizes; see the cuff and hose information on page 1-27.

Positioning the NiBPCuff
WARNINGS
•Avoid compression, kinking or restriction of the NiBP cuff hose, as the effect of blood
flow interference can result in patient injury caused by continuous cuff pressure.
• Do not use the NiBP cuff on a limb with an intravenous infusion or where an arterial
catheter or arterio-venous (A-V) shunt is in place because of temporary interference to
blood flow. This could result in injury to the patient.
• Do not place the NiBP cuff over a wound, as this can cause further injury.
• Do not place the NiBP cuff on the same or adjacent arm to a mastectomy, or where the
lymph nodes were removed, or if a shunt is on that arm. This can lead to bruising,
inaccurate readings, or negatively impact the drainage of fluids because of temporary
interference to blood flow.

WARNING
Routinely inspect the NiBPcuff and hose assemblies for proper connection and orientation.
Replace accessories that have cracks, holes, tears, or cuts that could cause leaks in the

WARNINGS
•Inspect CO2 port and accessories before use. If the sampling line, connector or port
show signs of damage, replace the part immediately or discontinue use and contact
technical support. Never use damaged equipment.
• Frequently inspect the patient sampling line and keep it clear of any moving
mechanisms (for example, table wheels) which could cut, pinch, or dislodge the
sampling line. Leaks, reduced or stopped flow, or internal venting of sampled gas into
damaged tubing will cause inaccurate measurements.
• Do not position the sampling line in any manner that may cause entanglement or
strangulation.
• Replace the sampling line if excessive secretions are observed, as inaccurate
measurements could result if the flow is reduced or stopped.
• Leakages in the breathing system or sampling system may cause the displayed EtCO2
values to be too low. Always connect all components securely and check for leaks
according to standard clinical procedures. Displacement of the sampling line cannula
or airway adapter can cause lower than actual EtCO2 readings.

• If CO2 values for patients who are not on a breathing circuit appear extremely low,
check whether the patient is breathing through the mouth or whether one nostril is
blocked.
NOTES
• For optimum fit and compatibility, use only specified parts.
• Always inspect patient sampling line after attachment to the MR200.

WARNING
Patient sampling lines are intended for single-patient use only. Do not clean or
disinfect these items. Follow your hospital’s guidelines for appropriate disposal.
Reuse of single-use devices can result in spread of patient infection, degradation
of monitoring performance, or inaccurate measurements.
CAUTIONS
• The accuracy of the data is greatly influenced by the proper use and fitting of the patient
sampling line to ensure proper sampling without the introduction of outside air.
• Remove the patient sampling line from the CO2 port when not in use.

Alarm Safety Information
WARNINGS
• The monitor detects and responds almost immediately to most out-of-limits conditions,
except when averaging of the physiological signal is required to reduce unwanted noise
signals (for example, respiration rates and measurements derived from SPO2 signals.)
• Set the alarm volume based upon the ambient noise levels in the MR environment.
Some areas in the MR environment, such as the MR system room, may have ambient
noise levels louder than the maximum volume of the MR200. Therefore, displayed data
should be continuously monitored. Otherwise, if sound was inaudible, treatment of the
patient could be delayed. For visual alarms, adjust the position of the cart so that you
maintain a clear view of the display.

9‐2AlarmsExpressionMR200InstructionsforUse
NOTE
If a systemic failure of the processing hardware, software or communications renders an intended
task incomplete and unperformed, a watchdog circuit will automatically shutdown power to the
WPU. This will result in the removal of all patient data and displayed information, and a
continuous alarm will sound until power to the MR200 is turned off. If this problem persists,
contact technical support.

Controlling Alarm Indications
WARNINGS
• Always respond promptly to any alarm condition; otherwise, treatment of the patient
could be delayed.
• You should ensure that the current alarm preset is appropriate prior to use on each
patient. Failure to do so may cause a lapse in patient monitoring.
• Setting the alarm limits to extreme values can render alarm monitoring useless. Also,
potential hazard can exist if different alarm monitoring settings are used for the same
or similar equipment in any single patient care unit. Ignoring these restrictions may
cause a lapse in patient monitoring.

NOTE
If the MR200 is networked to an IP5, alarm indications occur at both the cart and the IP5; and
control of alarms, including sound level, is localized to the unit (cart or IP5) indicating the alarm

NOTE
Measurement validation: SPO2 accuracy validated in human studies against arterial blood sample reference measured
with a CO-oximeter. In a controlled desaturation study, healthy adult volunteers with saturation levels between 70–100
percent SPO2 were studied. The population characteristics for those studies were:
• about 50% female and 50% male subjects
• 19–27 years of age
• light to black skin tones
A functional tester cannot be used for accuracy assessment of a pulse oximeter monitor; however, it can demonstrate
that a pulse oximeter monitor reproduces a calibration curve that has been independently demonstrated to fulfill a
particular accuracy specification.
SPO2 measurements are statistically distributed; therefore, in accordance to ISO 9919:2005, it is possible that only
two-thirds of the measurements will fall within ± 3 percent of the value measured by the CO-Oximeter.

Guidelines for the Prevention of Excessive Heating and Burns
Associated with Magnetic Resonance Procedures
Ingeneral,magneticresonance(MR)imagingisconsideredtobearelativelysafediagnostic
modality.However,theuseofradiofrequencycoils,physiologicmonitors,electronically‐
activateddevices,andexternalaccessoriesorobjectsmadefromconductivematerialshas
causedexcessiveheating,resultinginburninjuriestopatientsundergoingMRprocedures.
HeatingofimplantsandsimilardevicesmayalsooccurinassociationwithMRprocedures,but
thistendsbeproblematicprimarilyforobjectsmadefromconductivematerialsthathave
elongatedshapessuchasleads,guidewires,andcertaintypesofcatheters(e.g.,catheterswith
thermistorsorotherconductingcomponents).
Notably,morethan30incidentsofexcessiveheatinghavebeenreportedinpatientsundergoing
MRproceduresintheUnitedStatesthatwereunrelatedtoequipmentproblemsorthepresence
ofconductiveexternalorinternalimplantsormaterials[reviewofdatafilesfromU.S.Foodand
DrugAdministration,CenterforDevicesandRadiologicalHealth,ManufacturerandUserFacility

DrugAdministration,CenterforDevicesandRadiologicalHealth,MedicalDeviceReport,(http://

MRsystemsrequiretheuseofRFpulsestocreatetheMRsignal.ThisRFenergyistransmitted
readilythroughfreespacefromthetransmitRFcoiltothepatient.Whenconductingmaterials
areplacedwithintheRFfield,theresultmaybeaconcentrationofelectricalcurrentssufficient
tocauseexcessiveheatingandtissuedamage.Thenatureofhighfrequencyelectromagnetic
fieldsissuchthattheenergycanbetransmittedacrossopenspaceandthroughinsulators.
Therefore,onlydeviceswithcarefullydesignedcurrentpathscanbemadesafeforuseduring
MRprocedures.Simplyinsulatingconductivematerial(e.g.,wireorlead)orseparatingitfrom
thepatientmaynotbesufficienttopreventexcessiveheatingorburnsfromoccurring.
Furthermore,certaingeometricalshapesexhibitthephenomenonof“resonance”which
increasestheirpropensitytoconcentrateRFcurrents.Attheoperatingfrequenciesofpresent
dayMRsystems,conductingloopsoftensofcentimetersinsizemaycreateproblemsand,
therefore,mustbeavoided,unlesshighimpedanceisusedtolimitRFcurrent.Importantly,even
