CE Marking Information
CE Marking Information Compliance The product CASE bears the CE marking CE 0459, notified body GMED, indicating its conformity with the provisions of the Council Directive 93/ 42/EEC concerning medical devices and fulfills the essential requirements of Annex I of this directive. Date of the first CE mark 1999. The medical device has been assigned to class IIa as specified in Annex IX of the Directive 93/42/EEC. The medical device has a lifetime of 5 years with respect to the Council Directive 93/42/EEC essential requirement #4. The product complies with the electromagnetic immunity requirements of standard IEC 60601-1-2 “Electromagnetic Compatibility - Medical Electrical Equipment”. The radio interference emitted by this device is within the limits specified in EN 55011 - class A. MAGNETIC AND ELECTRICAL INTERFERENCE - Magnetic and electric fields can interfere with the system. Make sure that all peripheral components operated in the vicinity of the device comply with the relevant EMC requirements. X-ray equipment, MRI devices, radio systems (cellular phones) and so forth, are possible sources of interference because they may emit higher levels of electromagnetic radiation. Verify the performance of the system before use. Magnetic and electrical fields are capable of interfering with the proper performance of the device. For this reason make sure that all external devices operated in the vicinity of the system cart comply with the relevant EMC requirements. X-ray equipment, MRI devices, radio systems, cellular telephones, etc. are possible sources of interference as they may emit higher levels of electromagnetic radiation. Keep the system cart away from these devices and verify the performance of CASE before use. The safety and effectiveness of this device has been verified against previously distributed devices. Although all standards applicable to presently marketed devices may not be appropriate for prior devices (i.e., electromagnetic compatibility standards), this device will not impair the safe and effective use of those previously distributed devices (see Operator’s Manual). The country of manufacture appears on the device label.

Safety Information
Safety Information Intended Use
CASE is intended to be used by trained operators under direct supervision of a licensed health care practitioner on adult and pediatric patients.
CASE is designed to acquire, process, record, archive, analyze and output ECG data (12 and 15 leads) during a period of physiologic stress or during a resting ECG test and acquire data from ancillary devices, such as spirometry and ambulatory blood pressure devices. Furthermore, it provides median morphology recordings and records ECG in real-time with and without arrhythmia detection.
The arrhythmia detection algorithm of CASE is provided to the user for the convenience of automatic detection of arrhythmias but does not provide alarms.
CASE provides the control of external devices. These are typically treadmills and bicycle ergometers. Additionally, CASE communicates with centralized electronic/digital storage systems via data networks. WARNING Patient Hazard-Do not use the digital or analog outputs to control therapeutic devices such as defibrillators.
Revision G
CASE provides a user-selectable option for printouts of prognostic scores on selected reports. Vector loops are also available.
CASE can be configured in a network environment for multiple CASE and CardioSoft stations allowing the user to create a central database of patient demographics and collected patient physiological data.
CASE is intended to be used primarily in the hospital. However, it can also be used in clinics, physician offices, outreach centers or wherever exercise stress testing, ECG, spirometry or ambulatory blood pressure testing is performed.
CASE offers no diagnostic opinion to the user. Instead it provides interpretive statements of morphology, rhythm, and conduction for which the physician renders his/her own medical opinion.
CASE is not intended to be used as a transport device or for home use.
CASE is not intended for use as a vital signs physiological monitor.
CASE is not intended for intracardiac use.
CASE is not intended for use as an emergency device.
CASE will not cause abnormal operation of a patient's cardiac pacemaker or other electronic stimulators.

Safety Information
CASE is not intended for use with high frequency surgical units. Disconnect the patient from CASE before using the high frequency surgical unit.
This manual is an integral part of the product. It should always be kept near the product. Close observance of the information given in the manual is a prerequisite for proper device performance and correct operation and ensures patient and operator safety. Read the manual once in its entirety, because information pertinent to several chapters is given only once.
To ensure maximum patient safety, interference-free operation and the specified measuring accuracy, we recommend using only original GE Healthcare accessories. The user is responsible for application of accessories from other manufacturers.
The warranty does not cover damage resulting from the use of unsuitable accessories and consumables from other manufacturers.
GE Healthcare is responsible for the effects on safety, reliability, and performance of the product, only if:
General Information
Assembly operations, extensions, readjustments, modifications, or repairs are carried out by GE Healthcare or by persons authorized by GE Healthcare.
The electrical installation of the relevant room complies with the requirements of the appropriate regulations, and
The product is used in accordance with the instructions given in this manual.
This equipment is protected against the effects of cardiac defibrillator discharge to ensure recovery as required by test standards.
Accuracy of the Input Signal Reproduction:
Recording speed accuracy is tested using the method described in IEC 60601-2-25and the maximum error is ± 5 %.
Frequency Response is tested according to IEC 60601-2-25 and IEC 60601-2-51 sub-clause 51.107.1 conforming to the specifications of sub-clause 51.107.1.1.
Modulating Effects in the Digital System. This device uses digital sampling techniques that may produce some variation in amplitude of Q, R, and/or S waves. This effect may be particularly noticeable in pediatric recordings. If this phenomenon is observed, the clinician should be aware that the origin of amplitude variations is not entirely physiologic. For measuring voltages of Q, R, and S waves, it is advisable to use the QRS complexes with the largest deflection of the particular waves.
