  • Causa
    Areas of the current design of the ojemann cortical stimulator (ocs2) were found not to be compliant to iec 60601-1, contraindicating the claim in the ifu. through internal evaluation, the manufacturer found that if the optional headphone jack is in use during a surgical procedure, and a non-intended voltage (such as static electricity) comes in contact with the outer case of the unit, that voltage could be transmitted to the patient and be a potential source of injury.
