Introduction
Laborie equipment and accessories are licensed by governments, approved by safety agencies, and warranted to work only with one another. The Roam NXT and the PIM NXT are not intended for long-term direct patient contact. If the devices must be attached to a patient, place gauze or another material between the devices and the patient’s skin. Caution: United States federal law restricts this device to sale or use by or on the order of a licensed physician. Warnings: The NXT Urodynamic System contains magnets that can interfere with the control of a pacemaker or implanted cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD). Follow the instructions from the manufacturer of such devices and ensure that the Roam NXT, Urocap NXT, and charger cable connectors are always kept at a sufficient distance from any implanted device. Only Laborie-trained technicians may service the unit. Do not use the NXT system if the device packaging has been opened, damaged, or if it presents any fault due to improper transport, storage, or handling that could in any way hamper its use. The NXT system is intended for installation by trained personnel ONLY. Ensure that all wheels are locked during testing procedures to prevent injury to the patient. Do not lean on the equipment or hang excessively heavy objects on the platform; only hang Laborie standard accessories on the platform. Use caution when adjusting the PC and monitor from its lowest or highest position; ensure that all extremities are clear of moving parts. If the PC or monitor is removed from the mount, the unit can rise abruptly as the gas spring triggers used are calibrated to handle the weight of the original configuration. Do not immerse the NXT system or any of its modules in water or any other liquids. Do not place your fingers or any body parts inside the pump when the pump rollers are moving. Do not use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air, oxygen, or nitrous oxide. Do not use electromyography (EMG) simultaneously with high-frequency surgical equipment. Do not operate the NXT system near shortwave or microwave therapy equipment, as proximity may produce instability in the APPLIED PARTS. Do not allow applied parts linked to a PATIENT CONNECTION, but not connected to the PATIENT, to contact other conductive parts including those connected to protective earth. Preserve the patient connection electrical isolation. Do not reuse single-use accessories. After use, dispose of single-use accessories in accordance with local regulations. Reuse, reprocessing, or resterilization of disposables can lead to device failure and create a risk of cross-infection and/or cross-transmission of infectious disease(s) from one patient to another. NXT system accessories are not intended to be defibrillation-proof.

Introduction
Improper processing of reusable items prior to initial use or reuse can result in crossinfection and/or cross-transmission of infectious disease from one patient to another. Risks associated with catheterization increase immediately after urethral or bladder surgery. The performance of urodynamic studies with post-operative patients is at the discretion of the physician. Medical care professionals performing urodynamic studies should be prepared to recognize and treat symptoms associated with ureteral catheterization, vasovagal syncope (fainting), and Autonomic Dysreflexia. To avoid potential patient injury, never clean or service any module or component of the NXT system while in use with a patient. The use of the Medical Electrical (ME) equipment is restricted to one patient at a time. Do not use the NXT system in the presence of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system, as the NXT system may contain ferromagnetic objects that pose a risk to the patient in the presence of a magnetic core. To avoid risk of electric shock, do not touch the pogo pins located inside the NXT docking station, Urocap NXT charging hub, or Urocap NXT wall charger. To avoid the risk of electric shock, only connect this equipment to a mains power supply with protective earth. All devices must be powered by the Line Isolation Transformer or the wall charger specified in the Instructions for Use. Do not connect any additional multiple-socket outlets or extension cords to the NXT system or any of its components. This device is intended for use in a clinical environment with controlled EMC standards to limit potential interference. The NXT system may be adversely affected by Bluetooth, cellular, or EMC interference. Minimize interference from other Bluetooth devices by setting up all modules of the system in proximity to one another. Electromagnetic interference in the form of electrostatic discharge or radiated emissions can cause the NXT system components to temporarily disconnect. Components may require a power cycle before operation can resume after exposure to these electromagnetic interferences. Only connect devices specified and approved by Laborie to the NXT system multiplesocket outlets. Connecting any device not approved by Laborie to the ME system alters the functional integrity of the product, creating a safety risk. Always position the NXT system to facilitate ease of access to all electrical connections and plugs. The device operator must be able to disconnect the device quickly and safely in case of an emergency. Avoid use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment, as it could result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, observe this equipment and the other equipment to verify that they are operating normally. Do not alter or add to the NXT medical electrical system. Any alteration to the NXT system by an unauthorized party transfers responsibility for meeting ME system requirements from Laborie to the altering party. Anyone connecting supplementary equipment to ME equipment configures a medical system and is therefore responsible for ensuring that the system complies with the requirements for ME systems, encompassed in the IEC/EN 60601 series.

Introduction
Do not make changes or modifications to the PIM NXT for T-DOC and its radiators. Changes to intentional or unintentional radiators not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Batteries are not operator replaceable (except for those in the Remote Control NXT). Do not attempt to remove the battery. All servicing of the NXT system, modules, or attachments must be completed by Laborie authorized personnel. NOTE: Local laws take priority over the aforementioned requirements and warnings; if in doubt, consult your local Laborie representative or the Technical Service department.
