    1.2.2 Function principle The OW100® generates electro-hydraulic shockwaves by discharging high voltages (sparks) through a submerged electrode (Fig. 1.2.2-1). The sparks vaporize the medium between the electrode tips and create spherical, acousticalshockwaves. The shockwaves are then focused at the reflector. The shape of reflector determines how widely the shockwaveswill be focused.

    Proper positioning of the reflector ensures the shockwaves aretransmitted to the treatment area. The applicator is coupled tothe patient (3) by the silicone membrane (4) and ultrasound gel. 1 Electrode 2 Reflector 3 Patient 4 Membrane

  • Safety

    mts_ow100_ifu_e_a.doc 17

    2.8 Warnings and Precautions The device uses shockwaves to treat indications as specified in section 1.3. In addition to the contraindications listed in section 1.4, other precautions must be followed to prevent danger to life and/or damage of the device.

    2.8.1 Patient Selection Read sections 1.3 and 1.4.

    Women of childbearing potential Shockwave treatment of areas located close to the female reproductive system should be avoided in women of childbearing potential. The application of shockwaves tothis patient population could possibly result in irreversible damage to the female reproductive system and to the unborn fetus in the undiagnosed pregnancy.

    2.8.2 Treatment

    WARNING

    Non-Desired Effects! In each particular case it is necessary to be aware of the fact that shock waves act at the boundaries of tissues with different acoustic impedance (e. g. bone-muscle, liquid-solid tissue states, tissue-gas e.g. lungs, intestines, etc). Before application all potential non-desired effects should be assessed.

    WARNING

    Inappropriate Application of Shock Waves! Extracorporeal shock wave treatments must always be administered by trained staff. Only the trained user is authorized to release shock waves. Operating the device must be in accordance with national regulations for shock wave devices. All treatments and operation of the device must be carried out in accordance with this manual "Instructions for Use".

    WARNING

    Air-Filled Interfaces in Shock Wave Path! Do not apply shock waves to air-filled areas of the body, i.e., intestines or lungs. Shock waves are rapidly dispersed by passage through an air-filled interface, which can cause bleeding and other harmful side effects.

  • Safety

    mts_ow100_ifu_e_a.doc 19

    2.8.3 Maintenance

    WARNING

    Cardiac Arrhythmia during Treatment! If a patient experiences cardiac arrhythmia during treatment at a fixed shockwave repetition rate, shockwave delivery should be terminated.

    WARNING

    Avoid Air Bubbles in Shock Wave Path! The severity of tissue damage or hematomas depends on the total energy and the energy density applied. The coupling membrane should make very good contact with the patient's skin in order to prevent loss of energy and the development of hematoma. Always use ultrasound gel or caster oil as a coupling medium and make sure there are no air bubbles between the surface of the coupling membrane and the skin. There should be no bubbles inside the coupling membrane. Any feedback from a patient who is conscious during the procedure should be taken into account. It is advisable to start the treatment at a lower energy level and trigger frequency. As the treatment continues increase energy level and trigger frequency until the desired levels are reached.

    WARNING

    Electric Shock Hazard! Never remove the covers of the electronics cabinet. The high voltage power supply circuits utilized by extracorporeal shock wave devices use voltages that are capable of causing serious injury or death from electric shock.

    CAUTION

    Floor surface! Floors should be wooden or concrete or be covered with ceramic tiles. If the floor is covered with a synthetic material, the relative humidity must be at least 30%.

    CAUTION

    Room Installation! The OW100® is designed for use in all installations, including living quarters which are directly connected to a public electricity supply that also supplies the building which is used as a residence. The quality of supply voltage should correspond to a typical business or hospital environment.

    NOTE

    Power Interruptions! Any break in the electrical supply can cause a "RESET" of the OW100®. In such cases the device will need to warm up (approx. 3 min.) before the application of shockwaves can be continued. If the break in electrical supply is of longer duration the device will switch off automatically. In such cases the equipment must be restarted according to the operating instructions. Both types of break in the electrical supply will cause the equipment to go into a safe condition. If the user of the OW100® needs continuous functionality even when there are interruptions in the power supply, it is recommended that the OW100® be connected to an uninterruptible power supply or a battery.

    CAUTION

    Electromagnetic Interactions! If the device is used in combination with other electrical equipment the entire configuration must be in accordance with EN 60601-1-1. Consult a specialist in case of doubt. The OW100® may not be used in the vicinity of, or together with, other equipment in a stacked arrangement. If it is unavoidable to stack the device in close proximity to other equipment, the OW100® should be carefully observed, in order detect any adverse effects among the devices installed in the arrangement.

    CAUTION

    Communication Devices and Portable Radios! Portable high frequency communication devices can affect medical electrical equipment. Portable radios should not be used in close proximity to the OW100®, this includes all cables that may be affected up to the recommended safe distance; this is calculated from the transmitter frequency used.
