The PillCam sensor belt is simple to use for both care providers and patients: • Minimal preparation is required because the sensor belt is worn over clothing, with no need for the patient to undress or attach anything directly to skin. • The easy-fasten straps make attachment and removal effortless. Simply fasten the sensor belt and connect it to the PillCam recorder DR3, which is worn in the recorder pouch with shoulder strap. • After the procedure, the disposable sleeve and strap can be removed and thrown away, so that the sensor belt can be quickly and easily prepared for the next procedure. The sensor belt is used with PillCam recorder DR3 in the recorder pouch with shoulder strap.

Warning • Do not use the sensor belt on patients with a BMI greater than 43.3. •

Sensor Belt Instructions
Appropriate Patient Clothing When using the sensor belt, the patient must wear an upper garment of thin, natural fiber cloth that is long enough to reach at least to hip level and will not ride up above the sensor belt.
!
Caution The sensor belt must not be worn over synthetic or slippery fabric (such as nylon or silk).
Securing the Sensor Belt on the Patient 1.
While holding the sensor belt at patient’s waist level, place the downlink loop over the patient’s head so that it hangs from the left shoulder.
2.
Adjust the downlink loop to remove excess cable so that it fits closely to the patient’s body. There is a clip on the downlink loop that keeps the excess cable tidy and secure.

Caution
• •
Do not allow the sensor belt to hang from the downlink loop. Do not forcibly bend the downlink loop in any way.
