FloPoint Elite Uroflow System
Important Information
Important Information Important Information Product Description The study of urine discharge rate, or uroflowmetry, is recognized by the medical community to be valuable in the determination of comparative urological function. The advanced technology in the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System provides an accurate and convenient method to help assess bladder function. The FloSensor contains a disk that spins at a constant speed. When a flow of urine hits the disk, the motor must work harder to maintain the disk spinning at that same speed with the added weight of the urine. The FloSensor measures the amount of power needed to maintain the disk’s original speed and uses that measurement to calculate the urine flow rate. The FloSensor also records the total amount of urine discharged by the patient. This data can be analyzed using the ScanPoint® with QuickPrint software to determine how quickly or slowly the patient urinated, any interruptions or changes in the flow, and the total volume of the patient’s bladder.
Intended Use Warnings and Cautions The FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System should be used only by individuals who have been trained and authorized by a physician or the institution providing patient care. All users must read this entire User’s Manual prior to using the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System. Do not attempt to operate this instrument until you thoroughly understand all instructions and procedures in this manual. Failure to comply with these instructions may compromise the performance of the device and the reliability of its measurements. For the most current version of this User’s Manual please visit the Verathon® web site at: http://www.verathon.com/manuals.htm. Statement of Prescription United States federal law restricts the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System to use by, or on the order of, a physician. This statement is required per 21 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 801.109. NOTE: It is standard practice to have medical staff authorize the use of the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System within its intended use throughout an institution. Individual prescriptions for use are not required. Statement of Intended Use The FloPoint® Elite system is intended for uroflowmetry exams: the measurement and analysis of urine discharge rate and volume. The FloSensor is placed in a toilet bowl with a disposable funnel placed on top which directs the urine flow into the sensor. The patient may void into the sensor from either a standing or sitting position. Uroflowmetry data gathered by the FloSensor is transmitted to the ScanPoint® Remote via wireless radio link. When used in conjunction with ScanPoint® with QuickPrint software, a report containing the ICS values for uroflowmetry may be generated for the patient’s medical record. Contraindications None

Only connect the FloPoint® Elite AC adapter to power sources consistent with the input specifications shown on the adaptor label. Risk of fire and/or explosion. Do not use the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System in the presence of flammable anesthetics. Risk of device damage: Do not allow any foreign objects fall onto or into the device. Only expose the unit to fluids as directed for uroflow measurements and cleaning. Do not subject the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System to mechanical vibration, dust, or shock. Do not store or use the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System near heat sources such as radiators. Do not operate this device in temperatures below 10ºC (50ºF) or above 35ºC (104ºF). Do not store this device in temperatures below -10ºC (14ºF) or above 35ºC (95ºF). Assure that the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System is situated in an area with proper ventilation. To comply with IEC 60601-1 and national electrical codes, the FloCharger must be wallmounted as described in this manual. Never cover the FloCharger or FloSensor with any cloth or other object that might interfere with proper ventilation. Do not store or operate the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System near equipment or devices that generate strong electro-magnetic fields. Do not place any heavy objects on top of the FloSensor or FloCharger. Hazardous materials present. Assure proper disposal. The FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System may contain lead, batteries, and other environmentally hazardous materials. When the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System has

reached the end of its useful service life, return the device, and related accessories to a Verathon® Service Center for proper disposal. Alternatively, follow your local protocols for hazardous waste disposal. Assure proper computer system configuration. When using the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System with ScanPoint® software, your computer must be minimally certified to EN / IEC / CSA / UL 60950 or 60101-1 standards. This configuration ensures that compliance to the EN/IEC 60601-1-1 system standard is maintained. Anyone connecting additional equipment to the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System signal input port or signal output port configures a medical system, and is therefore responsible for ensuring that the system complies with IEC 60950 or EN/IEC 60601-1-1 (if in the vicinity of patients). If you need assistance, contact your biomedical staff, Verathon Medical® representative, or the Verathon® Medical Customer Care Department at 1.800.331.2313. Assure proper distance from patient. When transmitting data to or from your computer, make sure that the FloPoint® Elite, accessories, and computer are outside the patient vicinity (more than six feet (2 meters) from the patient). Refer to EN/IEC 60601-1 for the definition of patient vicinity. Risk of injury or device damage. Keep long hair and loose clothing away from the FloSensor. Keep foreign materials such as toilet paper and metal out of the FloSensor. Do not flush FloPoint® Elite funnels down the toilet. Dispose of them as you would other medical waste. Service. The FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System should be serviced by authorized service personnel when:
The AC power cord or plug has been damaged.
Objects have become trapped in the instrument.
The instrument has been exposed to rain or moisture other than that consistent with use as directed.
The instrument does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance.
The instrument has been dropped or the enclosure damaged.
The FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System does not contain any user-serviceable components. The user should not attempt to service the instrument beyond the procedures provided in this manual, unless directed by Verathon® service personnel. All other servicing should be referred to authorized service personnel. If at any time you require assistance with your FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System, contact Verathon Medical® Customer Care at 800.331.2313 (Canada and US only) or 425.867.1348.

FloPoint Elite Uroflow System
Introducing the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System Introducing the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System Product Description FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System measures and records a patient’s pattern of urinary flow, allowing physicians to quickly assess the mechanics of flow and to diagnose abnormalities in voiding patterns (e.g., obstructed or restricted flow, superflow, etc.).The advanced technology in the FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System provides an accurate and convenient method to assess bladder function. The FloSensor rapidly and accurately records both the flow rate and the total amount of urine discharged by the patient. These measurements are transmitted via radio link to a remote handset which in turn interfaces with ScanPoint® with QuickPrint allowing data storage, diagnostic analysis, and report generation. The FloPoint® Elite Uroflow System has a small footprint, making it easy and unobtrusive to use and store. The FloSensor, the heart of the FloPoint® Elite system, is lightweight and designed to fit in a standard toilet bowl during an exam. Between uses, it stows discreetly in the FloCharger, which also recharges the FloSensor battery.
