The customer or the user of the DoseAware system can help preventelectromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance betweenportable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and theDoseAware system as recommended below, according to the maximumoutput power of the communications equipment:•A minimum distance of 20 cm between a PDM and a mobile phone orregular electronic device (e.g. a computer).• A minimum distance of 50 cm between a PDM and a medical device orintended radiator (e.g. a wireless router).These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation isaffected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.Modality specific safetyDuring communication between the Base Station and PDMs, personal data istransmitted in open air.Be careful when using a PDM while being near a patient and make sure thatthe PDM does not fall or comes in contact with other equipment (such as acatheter) to endanger the procedure.Do not move a PDM to an unknown environment (for example anotherhospital). If you are visiting unknown environments, there is a risk thatpersonal data is registered there. For correct registration of staff dose data,only use the PDM within designated environment.Philips Medical Systems declares that all CE marked DoseAware productsincorporating Radio and Telecoms Terminal Equipment functionality are incompliance with the essential requirements and other relevant provisions ofDirective 1999/5/EC.NOTE2.8WARNINGModality specific safety 2.8DoseAware Base Station Package Document version 1.2 Safety 2-7Philips Healthcare 9896 002 16623 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60
Network safety, security and privacyCustomer Role in the Product Security PartnershipWe recognize that the security of Philips Medical Systems products is animportant part of your facility's security-in depth strategy. However, thesebenefits can only be realized if you implement a comprehensive, multi-layered strategy (including policies, processes, and technologies) to protectinformation and systems from external and internal threats.Following industry-standard practice, your strategy should address physicalsecurity, operational security, procedural security, risk management, securitypolicies, and contingency planning. The practical implementation oftechnical security elements varies by site and may employ a number oftechnologies, including firewalls, virus-scanning software, authenticationtechnologies, etc.As with any computer-based system, protection must be provided such thatfirewalls and/or other security devices are in place between the medicalsystem and any externally accessible systems.The USA Veterans Administration has developed a widely used MedicalDevice Isolation Architecture for this purpose. Such perimeter and networkdefenses are essential elements in a comprehensive medical device securitystrategy.For our product security policy statement and additional information, seethe Philips Medical Systems product security website at:2.92.9 Network safety, security and privacy2-8 Safety DoseAware Base Station Package Document version 1.2Philips Healthcare 9896 002 16623 0900a44780045a3a 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60

The optimal usage for the PDM to measuredose is to use it unshielded from any X-ray protection devices.Getting startedFollow the instructions below to start using your PDM:1Make sure that the PDM’s power mode is set to section “Change PDMoptions” on page 4-7.2Attach the PDM on your clothes using the metallic clip, which is located onthe back of the PDM, or the lanyard holder that is provided with the PDM.55.15.2DoseAware Base Station Package Document version 1.2 Using the PDM 5-1Philips Healthcare 9896 002 16623 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60
The PDM now records dose values and transmits them to Base Stationswithin range. You can also read out the recorded dose valuesby using DoseView via the Cradle (see section “Getting started withDoseView” on page 4-2).See the “Technical Data” chapter to learn more about PDMmemory and data transfer between PDM and Base Stations.5.2 Getting started5-2 Using the PDM DoseAware Base Station Package Document version 1.2Philips Healthcare 9896 002 16623 0900a44780045a3a 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60

PDM memoryThe PDM has two dose data memories:•The accumulated dose memory, where the PDM stores accumulated dosevalues every hour for the entire lifetime of the PDM.• The dose rate memory, where the PDM stores dose rate samples. Whenthe radiation exceeds 40 µSv/h, the PDM stores one sample persecond. This memory is limited to 3600 second-samples.When the dose rate memory is full, the oldest data will be overwritten with newer data.Base Station memoryThe Base Station stores dose information and PDM Info for PDMs thathave been connected to it.As the Base Station does not have a limitation of 3600 s for the dose ratememory, the information transmitted from the PDM will be more detailed.When a PDM is connected to a Base Station, it continuously transmits itsmeasured dose exposures.When the Base Station memory is full, the oldest data will be overwritten.The capacity of the Base Station depends on the number of PDMs that havebeen On-Line and the number of dose rate samples. Storage capacity example: • 290 hours of dose exposure for 50 PDMs each.Dose data transfer from PDM to Base StationWhen a PDM gets within range of a Base Station, it will transfer data to theBase Station (the accumulated dose values the PDM has collected since lasttime it was within range). If a PDM is within range of a BaseStation when it is exposed to radiation, the PDM will also start sending doserate samples to the Base Station each second.10.2NOTE10.3NOTE10.410.2 PDM memory10-2 Technical data DoseAware Base Station Package Document version 1.2Philips Healthcare 9896 002 16623 0900a44780045a3a 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60
PDM and Base Station/DoseView memoriesDose rate samples that have been overwritten in the PDM’s dose ratememory may still be available in the Base Station.If there are no dose rate samples neither in the Base Station, nor in thePDM dose rate memory, the Base Station and DoseView will instead displaymean dose rate values based on accumulated dose values (see figure below).Lack of dose rate samples in the Base Station and/or DoseView memoriesoccurs when the:•PDM is not within range of the Base Station when it is exposed to radiation.•Dose rate samples in the PDM dose rate memory are overwritten.Figure 10.1  DoseView chart.

 Time managementThe PDM logs dose history in local time with no daylight saving timeadjustments. Daylight saving time adjustment is done in the Base Station,DoseView or Dose Manager when the dose history is presented.The following happens when the daylight saving time is changed:•When going to summertime, one extra hour with no dose data will beadded to the dose log.• When going to wintertime, two hours of dose data will be merged intoone hour. This hour contains no dose rate details. When changingfrom summertime to wintertime, dose date details in the two mergedhours will not be displayed.Technical SpecificationsRadio communication• The communication range between a PDM facing a Base Station and theBase Station is at least 10 meters in open air inside an operating room.• Communication radio, Europe, complies with 1995/5/EC Radio andTelecommunications Terminal Equipment (R & TTE).•Communication radio, US, complies with FCC Declaration of Conformity.
