1.1 Intended purpose
The SERVOX
®
speech aids offer patients, who have lost their voice due to injury, illness or surgical
removal of the larynx, the opportunity to quickly regain the ability to communicate.
The SERVOX
speech aids can also be used by patients who are temporarily voiceless due to a trache-
®
otomy, who have to protect their vocal folds due to illness or who are connected to a respirator.
Even patients who are comfortable using the oesophageal voice can use the SERVOX
a variety of scenarios, e.g. for making phone calls, at business meetings, when they are tired, sick or
very stressed, in an emergency, or in settings where speaking in a loud voice is essential.
The SERVOX
digital XL may only be used for the applications listed above. The manufacturer assumes
®
no liability for all other applications and resulting damages of any kind.
Note
SERVOX
®
