Applied Parts

Applied Parts are components in the device that testing have shown to be touchable and are intended, in normal use, to come in contact to perform their function.

CO2

Carbon Dioxide is the cooling agent used by the Kaasen device to cool the patient. Ensure you get a cylinder fitted with a dip tube or syphon tube. this is known as a liquid take off.

Cold Shock

Refers to the application of cold under pressure to trick the body into a natural response.

Contact Nozzle

A nozzle which has been designed to contact the patient.

Contraindications

A contraindication is a reason to not use a particular treatment, medication, or procedure because it may be harmful to the patient

cryolipolysis

Cryolipolysis is the break down fat cells using cold temperatures. Unlike other cells, The fat cells are particularly susceptible to the effects of cold. While the fat cells freeze, the skin and other structures are spared from injury.

cylinder

Cylinders hold the liquid carbon dioxide. the range in sizes from 3.15kg through to 100kg. For the unit to function the cylinder should be pressurised to 50-60bar with a liquid take off. this is often called a syphon or dip tube.

DC

Direct Current is a type of electrical current where the electric charge (usually carried by electrons) flows in one constant direction.

Dip Tube

Is a thin tube placed inside a cylinder to allow liquid CO2 to be delivered out of the cylinder. Liquid take off

Hex File

Hex is a file type used by microcontrollers to store the software.

Hypercapnia

is a medical condition characterized by abnormally elevated levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the blood

Hypoxia

A state where the body or a specific region is deprived of sufficient oxygen at the tissue level

Indications

A medical condition that a medical device is used for.

Intended Purpose

In the context of IEC 60601 medical devices, "intended purpose" refers to the manufacturer's stated use for the device, encompassing its intended clinical benefit and the specific patient population, body part, and usage environment.

Intended Use

The Intended Use refers to the purpose for which a product is designed and intended to be used, as defined by the manufacturer

IP Rating

An IP rating, which stands for Ingress Protection, indicates how well an electrical enclosure is sealed against foreign bodies like dust, moisture, and liquids

LCD

A Liquid Crystal Display is a flat-panel display technology that uses liquid crystals to modulate light, creating images by controlling the amount of light that passes through them.

LED

These are the white and blue lights on the front of the device

Li-ion

is a short, commonly used abbreviation for "lithium-ion battery". It refers to a type of rechargeable battery that uses lithium ions to store and release electrical energy.

P2S

Pay to spray. the unit is locked depending upon your agreement. Adding codes will add time to the unit before it locks.

Pipe Prime

To fill the hose with gas prior to begining a treatment.

Primary User

The primary user is the user that will directly operate the device.

RTV

Return to vender. A number given by the manufacturer to track and control the return of goods for service and repair.

Secondary user

A secondary user is a user that might interact with or be impacted by the device e.g. persons in the gereral vacinity of the treatment.

Siphon Tube

Is a thin tube placed inside a cylinder to allow liquid CO2 to be delivered out of the cylinder. Liquid take off

Spray Nozzle

a nozzle which has not been designed to contact the patient

USB

Universal Serial Bus. A standard technology for connecting computers and electronic devices to transfer data and power. The kaasen is fitted with a standard micro USB connection. The unit cannot be charged from this port
