Warnings
Explosion Hazard: Do not use in the presence of oxygen, nitrous oxide, or other
flammable anesthetics.
These instruments are intended only for professional use in hospitals, physical therapy
locations, and similar medical facilities where the patient will be under the supervision of
trained personnel.
To avoid risk of electric shock, this equipment must only be connected to a supply mains
with protective earth.
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove cover. Refer maintenance and
servicing to the Integra Padgett Dermatome Repair Center.
Do not allow the dermatome to operate and be in contact with the patient for a period
exceeding 30 seconds. If multiple grafts are to be taken allow a cool down period of not
less than 5 minutes between grafts.
Do not reuse blades. Blades are designed as single-use, disposable products and should
not be re-sterilized. Re-sterilization and subsequent reuse will dull the blades and may
result in cross-contamination or impaired function of the product. Sharpness of the
blades is not guaranteed with repeated use. Any blade, once used, should be discarded
according to hospital policy.
