Contraindication
There are no known contraindications for chronic haemodialysis.
The doctor in charge of the treatment is responsible for choosing the suitable therapy,
based on medical and analytical findings and the general health and condition of the
patient.
1.4
Side effects
Hypotonia, nausea, vomiting and cramps are possible side effects.
Oversensitive reactions caused by using the necessary tubing and filter materials have
been observed in only few cases. For this matter, please refer to the product
information provided with the consumables.
1.5
Special hazards and precautions
1.5.1
Special patient conditions
The dialysis system may only be operated on doctor´s instructions if the patient suffers
from one of the following conditions:
• Unstable circulation
• Hypokalemia
WARNING
1-6
Dialysis for patients with a body weight of less than 30 kg requires a wider
safety concept than that applicable to heavier patients.
The special risks concern excessive blood loss, excessive blood flow and a
disproportionately large extracorporeal blood volume compared to the blood
volume of the patient!
¾ Special precautions are required, e. g. intensified monitoring of the patient.
¾ The dialysis machine must not be employed without qualification and
adjustment of the entire therapy concept to the special conditions of the
patient. Especially, the compatibility of individual consumables with each
other and with the dialysis system must be considered.

1.5.2
Electrical hazards
1
The dialysis machine contains life-threatening electrical voltages.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock and fire.
¾ Always insert mains plug completely into the mains socket.
¾ Always pull/push on the plug not on the mains cord to connect or disconnect
the mains plug.
¾ Avoid damage of the mains cord for example by running over it with the
machine.
It must not be used or connected to mains voltage if the housing or the mains cord is
damaged in any way. A damaged dialysis machine must be submitted for repairs or
disposed of.
Interaction with other devices
When using the dialysis machine in combination with other therapeutic devices of
protection class I, a potential equalisation device must be connected, since the leakage
currents from all connected devices are additive and the electrostatic discharge from
the environment to Dialog+ may occur.
Do not connect customary consumer devices to the same power socket as the dialysis
machine or to connect them in parallel.
Use with central-venous catheter
For cardiac application, a higher degree of protection against electric shock is
required. Electric currents can run through supply lines via the dialysis fluid filter, the
dialyser, the catheter, the patient and every conducting object in the vicinity of the
patient. That is why electrical potential equalisation must be provided. As soon as
earth potential equalisation is connected to the machine the patient leakage current
has to be below 10 µA, which complies with the limit value for patient leakage current
of type CF. A special potential equalisation cable is available. It can be connected to
the bolt at the rear side of the machine. The ambient conditions of the premises must
be in accordance to the local requirements (see chapter 1.6.4).
1.5.3
Electromagnetic interactions
The dialysis machine has been developed and tested in accordance with the valid
standards for interference suppression and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC).
However, it cannot be guaranteed that no electromagnetic interaction with other
devices will occur (examples: mobile phones, computer tomograph (CT)).
CAUTION
Risk of electrostatic discharge from other devices.
¾ It is recommended that mobile phones and other devices emitting strong
electromagnetic radiation only be used at a minimum distance, according to
IEC 60601-1-2 (see also chapter 15.3).

Safe handling
1
Placing other therapeutic or diagnostic medical devices on Dialog+ or near by or use
of non-medical devices directly near the Dialog+ can influence electromagnetic
interactions. In this case the user must observe the Dialog+ and all other machines to
assure their correct operation.
1.5.4
Maintenance and filter change
In order to protect patients against cross-contamination, the transducer protectors of
the tube systems to be used are equipped with hydrophobic 0.2-µm filters. If, despite
this protective measure, blood enters into the machine-side transducer
protectors/pressure sensors, the dialysis machine may only be used again after
appropriate cleaning and disinfection was carried out by technical service.
Due to the particularly stringent hygienic requirements, we recommend annual
servicing of dialysis machines with dialysis fluid filters and of Dialog+ HDF-online. The
dialysis fluid filters must be changed as specified in the respective instructions for use.
1.6
Information for the operator
1.6.1
Training by manufacturer prior to commissioning
The operator may only use the device after the manufacturer has trained the
responsible staff based on these instructions for use.
1.6.2
Requirements on the user
The dialysis machine may only be used by persons instructed for its appropriate
operation.
The operator must ensure that the instructions for use are read and understood by all
operators of the dialysis machine.
Prior to using the dialysis machine, check for safe functioning and correct condition of
the dialysis machine.

Conformity
1
The dialysis machine and the options comply with the requirements of the generally
applicable standards in their respective valid version:
• IEC 60601-1
• IEC 60601-2-30
• DIN EN 1060-1
• DIN EN 1060-3
Additional equipment connected to the analog or digital interfaces of the dialysis
machine must demonstrably meet the relevant IEC specifications (e.g. IEC 60950 for
data processing devices and IEC 60601-1 for electromedical devices). Also, all
configurations must conform with the valid version of System Standard
IEC 60601-1-1.
Persons connecting additional devices to signal input or output components are
performing a system configuration and are, thus, responsible for ensuring that the
valid version of System Standard IEC 60601-1-1 is complied with. In case of queries,
please contact your local specialist dealer or technical service.
In each country the distribution of the machine is carried out provided that the device
is registered and classified according to the local regulations.
1.6.4
Manufacturer’s responsibility
The manufacturer, assembler, installer or implementer shall only be responsible for the
effects on the safety, reliability and performance of the device, if
• the assembly, expansion, readjustments, changes or repairs were carried out by a
person authorised by him and
• if the electrical installation of the affected room comply with the valid national
requirements on the equipment of medical treatment rooms
(i. e. VDE 0100 part 710 and/or IEC60364-7-710).
The device may only be operated if the manufacturer or an authorised person acting
on behalf of the manufacturer
• has carried out a functional check on site (initial commissioning),
• if the persons appointed by the operator to use the device have been trained in the
correct handling, use and operation of the medical product with the aid of the
instructions for use, enclosed information and maintenance information and
• if the quality of the water used with the device corresponds to the relevant
standards.
