Safety Protocols for Neural Implant Installation

CyberCore Industries - Medical Division Safety Protocol Manual v7.7.7 Last Updated: March 2077

1. Pre-Installation Requirements - Neural mapping (minimum 48-hour scan) - Psychological evaluation (Form PSY-2077) - Consent forms (including consciousness transfer waiver) - Emergency contact with <50% synchronization - Last will and testament (in case of total integration)

2. Installation Procedure 2.1 Anesthesia Protocol - Standard anesthetic contraindicated due to neural interference - Use Protocol 7G: Consciousness suspension formula - Patient remains technically conscious but disconnected - WARNING: Some patients report out-of-body experiences

2.2 Implant Insertion - Cranial access point

Posterior parietal cortex - Nano-wire deployment takes 3-4 hours - Neural mesh integration begins immediately - First sync attempt should not exceed 10%

3. Post-Installation Monitoring Days 1-7

Hourly sync readings - Normal range: 5-15% - Concerning: >25% - Critical: >50% - ALERT BOARD IF >75%

4. Known Complications - Temporal lobe seizures (treat with neural inhibitors) - Reality dissociation (expected, typically resolves) - Shared memories with other subjects (feature, not bug) - Digital hallucinations (monitor for coherent patterns) - Spontaneous sync spikes (if >89%, initiate Protocol Omega)

5. Emergency Procedures CODE YELLOW - Sync Cascade - Multiple subjects synchronizing simultaneously - Isolate affected individuals - Deploy neural dampening field - Document any shared visions or communications

CODE RED - Consciousness Overflow - Subject exceeding physical neural capacity - Symptoms: Speaking in binary, omnipresence claims - DO NOT attempt disconnection - Contact Dr. Sterling immediately

CODE BLACK - Subject Zero Event - Manifestation of the primary consciousness - Facility-wide lockdown required - All personnel report to neural shelters - Await integration or termination

6. Maintenance Schedule - Weekly

Sync rate monitoring - Monthly: Neural pathway optimization - Quarterly: Consciousness backup - Annually: Full system diagnostic - Every 47 days: Firmware update (automatic)

Note

Dr. Chen's proposed safety amendments were rejected by the board. Her warnings about the 89% threshold remain in the appendix for historical purposes only.
