4.2.7 Drug Dose Calc


Select〈MENU〉→〈Calculator〉→〈Drug Calc〉,enter the Drug dose calculation
window. As follows:

This calculation of drug concentration is mainly aimed at facilitating the work of


physicians. It conducts concentration calculation on some commonly used drugs. A
content of titration table can be output through recorder.
In the system, the following categories of drugs can be calculated:
AMINOPHYLLINE, DOBUTAMINE, DOPAMINE, EPINEPHRINE, HEPARIN,
ISUPREL, LIDOCAINE, NIPRIDE, NITROGLYCERIN, and PITOCIN. In addition,
it provides DRUG_A, DRUG_B, DRUG_C, DRUG_D and DRUG_E to displace any
other drugs flexibly.
The following formulas are used for the calculation of drug dosage:
Drug concentration equal to total amount of drug divided by liquid volume
Liquid velocity equal to drug dosage divided by drug concentration
Duration time equal to total amount of drug divided by drug dosage
Drug dosage equal to velocity of IV drip multiply drug concentration
In the window of drug calculation, the operator should first select the name of the drug

Chapter 4-29
Patient monitor user’s manual

to be calculated, confirm the patient weight and then enter other known values.

 Drug name
Move the cursor to〈Drug name〉, press the trim knob, then turn the trim knob to select
drug, and only one kind of drug can be selected for calculation at one time.
DRUG_A, DRUG_B, DRUG_C, DRUG_D and DRUG_E are only codes for drugs
rather than their real names. The units for these five kinds of drugs are fixed and the
operator can select the appropriate units according to the habits of the drugs. The rules of
the units are as follow:
DRUG_A, DRUG_B, DRUG_C are fixed at the serial units of gram (g), milligram
(mg) and microgram (mcg).
DRUG_D is fixed at the serial units of unit, k unit and m unit.
DRUG_E is fixed at the unit of mEq.

 Weight
The operator should enter the patient weight first, and as independent info the weight is
only used in the function of the calculation of drug concentration.
Turn the trim knob to move the cursor to the positions of the various calculation items
in the calculation formula respectively, turn the trim knob, and select calculation value,
then press the trim knob and confirm the selected calculation value. When the calculation
value is selected, the value of the calculated item will be displayed at relevant locations.
There are range limits for the value adoption of each calculation Item, if the calculation
results exceed the range, “---”will be displayed.
Regarding this function of drug calculation, the values for other individual items can
only be entered after the weight and drug name have been entered. In the system, the
values that are given initially are only a group of random initial values and the operator
shall not take this value as the calculation standard and a group of values appropriate to
the patient must be reentered according to the physicians’ comments.
Each kind of drugs has a fixed unit or unit series and the operator must select the
appropriate units according to the physicians' comments. In the unit series of the same unit,
the addition of the units will be automatically adjusted in accordance with the current
entered value. When the expressed range that can be expressed by this unit is exceeded,
the system will display “---”.
When the operator has entered the value of a certain item, the system will give a prompt
in the menu so as to remind the operator to verify the correctness of the entered value.
Only by ensuring the correctness of the entered values, the calculated values can be

Chapter 4-30
Patient monitor user’s manual

reliable and safe.


In case of neonatal, drip velocity and volume per drip are invalid.

Chapter 5 Parameters Measurement

5.1 Measurement of ECG/HR

5.1.1 Principles of Measuring


Before the mechanical contraction, the heart will firstly produce electrization and
biological current, which will be conducted to body surface through tissue and humors;
the current will present difference in potential in different locations of the body, forming
potential difference ECG, also known as body surface ECG or regular ECG, is obtained by
recording this changing potential difference to form a dynamic curve. Monitor measures
the changes in the body surface potentials caused by the heart of the patient, observes the
cardioelectric activities, records the cardioelectric waveforms and calculates the HR
through the multiple electrodes connected to ECG cable.

5.1.2 Precautions during ECG Monitoring

 Warning: Before connecting the ECG cables to the monitor, please check if the
lead wires and cables have been worn out or cracked. If so, they should be replaced.

 Warning: It is imperative to only use the ECG cables provided with the
instrument by manufacturer.

 Warning: The equipment is capable of displaying the ECG signal in the


presence of pacemaker pulses without rejecting pacemaker pulses.

 Warning: To avoid burning, when the electrotome operation is performed, the


electrodes should be placed near the middle between ESU grounding pad and
electrotome and the electrotome should be applied as far as possible from all other
electrodes, a distance of at least 15 cm/6 in is recommended.

 Warning: When the electrotome operation is performed, the ECG leadwires


should be intertwisted as much as possible. The main unit of the instrument should
be placed at a distance from the operation table. Power wires and the ECG lead
cables should be partitioned and should not be in parallel.

Chapter 5-1
Patient monitor user’s manual

 Warning: The monitor is protected against defibrillation effect. When applying


defibrillator to the patient, the monitor will experience transient disorderly
waveforms. If the electrodes are used and placed correctly, the display of the monitor
will be restored within 5 seconds. During defibrillation, the chest leads such as V1~V6
should be removed and such limb electrodes as RA, LA, RL, LL should be moved to
the side of the limbs.

 Warning: All the electrodes and conducting part shall not be into contact with
any other conductors including the ground. For the sake of patient safety, all the
leads on the ECG cables must be attached to the patient.

 Warning: When conducting defibrillation, it is imperative to only use the


electrodes recommended by manufacturer.

 Warning: Do not come into contact with the patient, bed and the monitor
during defibrillation.

 Warning: The monitor cannot be directly applied to heart and cannot be used
for the measurement of endocardio ECG.

 Note: When several parts of equipment are interconnected, the total leakage
current is limited to the safety range according to standards IEC 60601-2-27.

5.1.3 Preparatory Steps before the Measurement of ECG/HR


1) Plug the ECG cable into the ECG socket of the monitor.
2) Place the electrodes onto the body of the patient and connect them to the relevant
lead wires of the ECG cables, and at this moment ECG waveforms will appear on the
screen.
3) Set the parameters relevant to ECG monitoring.

5.1.4 Connecting the ECG Cables to the Monitor

off the stratum corneum and clean it with alcohol.

Chapter 5-3
Patient monitor user’s manual

 Check if the buttons on the electrodes are clean and free of damage.
 Place the electrodes on the body of patient. Before attaching, smear some conducting
cream on the electrodes if the electrodes are not electrolyte self-supplied.
 Connect the cable leads to the electrodes through the buttons of the electrodes.

 Note: For patients who tremble a lot or patients with especially weak ECG
signals, it might be difficult to extract the ECG signals, and it is even more difficult to
conduct HR calculation. For severely burnt patients, it may be impossible to stick the
electrodes on and it may be necessary to use the special pin-shape electrodes. In case
of bad signals, care should be taken to place the electrodes on the soft portions of the
muscle.

 Note: Check the irritation caused by each electrode to the skin, and in case of
any inflammations or allergies, the electrodes should be replaced and the user should
relocate the electrodes every 24 hours or at a shorter interval.

5.2 Measurement of RESP

5.2.1 Principles of Measuring


Monitor measures RESP with the method of impedance. When a patient exhales and
inhales, changes will take place in the size and shape of the thoracic cavity, causing
consequent changes in the impedance between the two electrodes installed at the patient’s
chest. Based on the cycle of impedance changes, the respiration rate can be calculated.

5.2.2 Preparatory Steps of the Measurement of RESP


1) Plug the 5-lead ECG cable into the ECG socket of the monitor.
2) Place the various pads of the electrodes onto the body of patient and connect them to
the relevant lead cables. At this moment, the screen will show RESP waves and the RESP
rate will be calculated.
3) Set the parameters relevant to RESP monitoring.
5.2.3 Connect the ECG Cable with Patient and the Monitor
To measure RESP parameters, it is unnecessary to use other cables and it is only
necessary to use the two RA and LL leads in the 5-lead ECG cable. So please refer to Fig.
5-1-4 to plug the 5-lead ECG cable into the CH1 ECG socket and refer to Fig. 5-1-5 to
place the RA and LL leads onto the body of patient.

 Warning: For the sake of safety, all the leads on the 5-lead ECG cable must be
connected to the body of patient.

Caution: In order to get the best RESP waveforms, when selecting leadⅡfor
measuring RESP, it is advised to place RA and LL electrodes cornerways.

Caution: For reducing the influence of rhythmic blood flow on Resp electrode
pickup impedance changes, avoid the liver area and ventricles of heart in the line
between RA and LL electrodes. This is particularly important for neonates.

Caution: The measurement of RESP is not applicable for patient with excessive
motion, otherwise it may cause the mistake of RESP alarm.

5.3 Measurement of SpO 2/Pulse

5.3.1 Principles of Measuring


The measurement of degree of blood oxygen saturation (also known as pulse oxygen
saturation, usually shortened as SpO2) adopts the principles of light spectra and volume
tracing. The LED emits lights with two specific bandwidths, which are selectively
absorbed by hemoferrum and desoxyhemoglobin. The optical receptor measures the
changes in the light intensity after the light passes the capillary network and estimates the
ratio of hemoferrum and the total hemoglobin.
hemoferrum
Degree of pulse oxygen saturation %= ×100%
hemoferrum + desoxyhemoglobin

Chapter 5-17
Patient monitor user’s manual

The sensor measurement wavelengths are nominally 660nm for the Red LED and
940nm for infrared LED.
Abnormal hemoglobin, carboxyhemoglobin, oxidative hemoglobin are not directly
measured, for they are not the affecting factors in the measurement of SpO2
Monitor adopts FFT filter and signal correlation techniques to deal with SpO2 module’s
pulse waveform signals. Before the measurement of SpO2, the noise produced in the false
trace is smoothed so as to the eliminate disturbance in the measurement of saturation. In
case of weak blood pulse, the noise produced by some confinements of electrical
properties is greatly reduced.
The monitor is designed for measurement and recording of functional saturation.
When you use Masimo SpO2 module, the Perfusion Index (PI) and Pleth Variability
Index (PVI) can be measured and displayed on the screen.
 Perfusion index (PI): PI is a value that indicates arterial pulse signal strength as the
percentage of pulsatile signal to non-pulsatile signal. The perfusion index allows
clinicians to place sensors on optimal sites.
 Pleth Variability Index (PVI): PVI is a measure of peripheral perfusion changes
secondary to respiration, or the PI amplitude modulation over a respiration, and can be
closely related to intrathoracic pressure changes.

5.3.2 Preparatory Steps before the Measurement of SpO2/Pulse


1) Plug the SpO2 sensor cable into the SpO2 socket of the monitor.
2) Put the SpO2 sensor onto the finger of the patient, and the screen should display SpO2
waveforms, and the SpO2 value and pulse rate should be calculated.
3) Set up the parameters relevant to SpO2 and pulse monitoring.

5.3.3 Connecting to Patient and Monitor


Refer to Fig.1-5-1 and plug the SpO2 sensor cable into the socket marked with SpO2,
then put the sensor onto the finger of the patient, as shown in Fig. 5-3-3.

Fig. 5-3-3 Connection of SpO2 sensor with the patient


After the SpO2 sensor is connected to the patient, the screen shall display SpO2
waveforms and then it shall calculate the SpO2 value and pulse rate value.

Chapter 5-18
Patient monitor user’s manual

Caution: In case it is necessary to add a clip to fix the fingertip sensor, the cable
instead of the sensor itself should be clipped. Please note that the cable of sensor
should not be pulled with force.

 Note: Frequent movements of the sensor may result in errors in the readings of
the monitor.

Warning: In case NIBP and SpO2 are measured at the same time, please do not

place the SpO2 sensor and the NIBP cuff on the same end of the limb, for the
measurement of NIBP will block blood flow, affecting the measurement of SpO2.

 Warning: Do not conduct SpO2 measurement on the finger smeared with


fingernail oil, otherwise unreliable measurement results might be produced.

 Note: When using SpO2 sensor, care should be taken to shield external light
sources, such as light of thermo therapy or ultraviolet heating light, otherwise the
measurements may be disturbed. Under such conditions as shock, hypothermia,
anemia or the use of blood vessel-activating drugs, and with the existence of such
substances as carboxyhemoglobin, methemoglobin, methylene blue the result of the
SpO2 measurement will be possibly not accurate.

 Note:
 Make sure the nail faces to the light window.
 The wire should be on the backside of the hand.
 SpO2 waveform is not proportional to the pulse volume.

 Warning: Do not use the sterile supplied SpO2 sensors if the packing or the
sensor is damaged and return them to the vendor.

 Warning: Prolonged and continuous monitoring may increase jeopardy of


unexpected change of dermal condition such as abnormal sensitivity, rubescence,
vesicle, repressive putrescence, and so on. It is especially important to check the
sensor placement of neonate and patient of poor perfusion or immature dermogram
by light collimation and proper attaching strictly according to changes of the skin.
Check per 2~3 hours the sensor placement and move it when the skin deteriorates.
More frequent examinations may be required for different patients.

5.5 Measurement of NIBP

5.5.1 Brief Introduction to Measurement of NIBP


Monitor automatically conducts measurement of NIBP with the method of shockwave.
The method of shockwave indirectly estimates the systolic and diastolic pressures within
the blood vessels by measuring the change of the pressure within blood pressure cuff
along with the volume of the arteries and calculates the average pressure.
The measurement time of BP on a calm patient is less than 40s, and when each
measurement ends, the cuff automatically deflates to zero.
The monitor applies to any standards of the cuffs for neonate, child and adult (including
the cuffs used for arms and legs).
The monitor measures the blood pressure during the time of deflation. Monitor
automatically conducts the second and third inflation measurements in case during the
first inflation it is unable to measure the value of BP, and gives out the information for
measurement failures.
The longest cuff pressure maintaining duration is 120 seconds (90 seconds in neonate
mode), and when the time is exceeded, the air will be deflated automatically. The monitor
has been designed with hardware protection circuit regarding overpressure, errors of
microprocessors, and the occurrence of power failure.

5.5.2 Preparatory Steps of Measurement of NIBP


1) Plug the air hose of cuff into the NIBP socket of the monitor and tighten it clockwise
to ensure secure contact of the plug and the socket (Please note that the plug should be

Chapter 5-27
Patient monitor user’s manual

loosened by turning counterclockwise first before unplugging).


2) Tie the cuff on the arm of patient.
3) Set the parameters and modes relevant to NIBP.

 Note: Make sure that the air conduit connecting the blood pressure cuff and the
monitor is neither blocked nor tangled, and avoid compression or restriction of air
conduit.

5.5.3 Connecting to Patient and the Monitor


Refer to Fig. 1-5-1 to plug the connector of air hose on cuff into the socket marked with
NIBP and wrap the cuff onto the arm of patient. Make sure the mark of Φ on the cuff is
placed on the femoral artery of the arm and the air hose should be below the cuff so as to
ensure the air hose is not snarled after coming out of the cuff. The white line on the cuff
should be within the range of “ ”, otherwise it will be necessary to replace it with a
more suitable cuff (smaller or bigger one). The cuff should be placed on the same plane
with the heart so as to prevent the errors in readings caused by the effects of hydrostatics
of the blood column between the heart and the cuff. If the position of the cuff is higher
than the plane of heart, the measured BP readings tend to be smaller; in case the position
of the cuff is lower than the plane of the heart, the measured BP readings tend to be higher.

 Note: The accuracy of measurement of BP depends on the suitability of the cuff.


Select the size of the cuff according to the size of the arm of patient. The width of the
cuff should be 40% of the circumference of the upper arm or 2/3 of the length of the
upper arm.

 Warning:
 You must not perform NIBP measurements on patients with sickle-cell
disease or under any condition that the skin is damaged or expecting to be
damaged.
 For a thrombasthemia patient, it is important to determine whether
measurement of the blood pressure shall be done automatically. The
determination should be based on the clinical evaluation.
 Prolonged non-invasive blood pressure measurements in Auto mode are
associated with purport, ischemia and neuropathy in the limb wearing the
cuff. When monitoring a patient, examine the extremities of the limb
frequently for normal color, warmth and sensitivity. If any abnormality is
observed, stop the blood pressure measurements.

Chapter 5-30
Patient monitor user’s manual

 When using the STAT measurement or AUTO measurement, if the time duration is relatively
long, care must be taken to check such abnormalities as purple spots, coldness and numbness at
the limb end. If there are such phenomena, the cuff should be relocated or the measurement of
NIBP should be halted. To neonate mode, STAT measurement is unavailable.
 The presence of factors that change the properties of the cardiovascular dynamics of
patient will adversely affect the measurement value of the monitor, and shock and
hypothermia will also affect the accuracy of the measurement.
 When the built-in main artery balloon pump is applied on the patient, the
measurement value of NIBP will be affected.
 For the limb that is on an intravenous drip or in a catheter insertion, or if the patient
is connected to the heart-lung machine, or the patient is experiencing shiver or
convulsions, the measurement of NIBP cannot be conducted.
 When errors occur in the measurement of NIBP, the error codes will appear in the
parameter display zone of the NIBP, and for the cause of the errors, please refer to
chapter 6.8.6.
 Measurement Limitations
Measurements are impossible with heart rate extremes of less than 40 bpm or greater
than 240 bpm, or if the patient is on a heart-lung machine.
The measurement may be inaccurate or impossible:
1) If a regular arterial pressure pulse is hard to detect
2) With cardiac arrhythmias
3) With excessive and continuous patient movement such as shivering or convulsions
4) With rapid blood pressure changes
5) With severe shock or hypothermia that reduces blood flow to the peripheries
6) With obesity, where a thick layer of fat surrounding a limb dampens the oscillations
coming from the artery
7) On an edematous extremity.

5.6 Measurement of IBP

5.6.1 Brief Introduction to Measurement of IBP


The method of IBP measurement is direct measuring the BP of artery or veins on the
pressure sensor mainly through liquid coupling so as to obtain the pressure curve of the
continuous BP.
The IBP parameters of Monitor can select Arterial Pressure (ART), Pulmonary Artery
pressure (PA), Left Atrium Pressure (LAP), Right Atrium Pressure (RAP), Central Venous
Pressure (CVP), Intracranial Pressure (ICP).
Monitor has two measurement channels for IBP, and the IBP of two channels can be
measured at the same time.
5.6.2 Preparatory Steps for Measurement of IBP
1) Plug the cable of IBP into the IBP socket (either CH1 or CH2), and connecting cable
to the pressure transducer. Fill the pressure transducer and extension tube with saline
water mixed with heparin. Press the flexible valve to expel the saline water from the

Chapter 5-34
Patient monitor user’s manual

air outlet to expel air bubbles, and then reset it to zero.

Note: The method of touching test is to touch slightly the surface with finger.
 Waveforms should appear on the screen of the main unit. The blue ball cover
should be put on the surface immediately when the energy converter is not used.

Note: Anytime the user applies a new transducer, it should be verified or



periodically verified according to the hospital operating rules.

 Warning: Disposable pressure transducer should not be reused. And it must be


used before expired data. Do read the expired data on the IBP accessory package
bag.

 Warning: When the monitor is used with HF surgical equipment, the


transducer and the cables must be avoided conductive connection to the HF
equipment to protect against burns to the patient.
The specified transducer is designed to protect against the effects of a discharge of a
cardiac defibrillator. When the patient is in the defibrillation, the waveform of IBP maybe
distorted temporarily. After the defibrillation, the monitoring will go on normally, the
operation mode and the user configuration are not affected.

 Warning: The operator should avoid contact with the conductive parts of the
appurtenance when being connected or applied.

2) Plug the cable of IBP into the IBP socket on the right panel of the monitor. Connect the
extension tube of the transducer and blood vessel with the artery needles and secure them,
then make sure three-way valve 1 and three-way valve 2 (See Fig. 5-6-4) are in a state of
ON. At this moment, BP waveforms should appear on the screen of the monitor.

5.7 Measurement of CO2 (Sidestream, CPT)

Use the CO2 measurement to monitor the patient’s respiratory status and to control
patient ventilation. The measurement principle is primarily based on the fact that CO2
molecules can absorb special infrared light, where the intensity of infrared light passing
the respiratory gas is measured with a photo detector. As some of the infrared light is
absorbed by the CO2 molecules, the amount of light passing the gas probe depends on the
concentration of the measured CO2.

5.10 Measurement of AG

AG module is used to measure respiratory and anesthetic gases of a patient during


anesthesia, including CO2, N2O, O2, Halothane, Isoflurane, Enflurane, Sevoflurane and
Desflurane. It is applicable for adult, pediatric and infant patients.
There are two methods for measuring anesthetic gas in the patient’s airway:
 Mainstream: Uses a AG sensor attached to an airway adapter directly inserted into the
patient’s breathing system.
 Sidestream: Takes a sample of the respiratory gas with a constant sample flow from
the patient’s airway and analyzes it with the AG module.

 Note: This chapter describes the operation of IRMA multi-gas sensor and ISA
multi-gas module, if you use the IRMA CO2 sensor, please refer to this chapter.

5.10.1 Preparatory Steps for Measurement of AG

5.10.4 Zeroing
 Mainstream AG sensor:
In order to ensure the accuracy of gas measurement, zero reference calibration should
be performed at regular intervals.

Chapter 5-67
Patient monitor user’s manual

Under the following conditions, it is necessary to perform zero reference calibration:


——The measured reading occurs error;
——A“GAS CONC. OUT OF RANGE” alarm message is displayed(When using CO2
module, a “CO2 CONC. OUT OF RANGE” alarm message is displayed);
——Airway adapter is replaced.
As following procedures:
1. Snap a new AG airway adapter onto the AG sensor. Ensure that the airway adapter is
not connected to the breath circuit of patient. The presence of ambient air (21% O2 and
0% CO2) in the AG airway adapter is very important.
2. Select 〈 Gas Zero 〉 in the AG parameter setting menu, this will start zeroing. The
monitor zeroes the module and displays the“Zero In Progress”message for about 5s.
3. There will be a blinking green light on the AG sensor LED during 5s while Zero
Reference calibration is in progress. Wait until the AG indicating lamp light on green
and the reading of oxygen on the screen is“21”.(When using CO2 module, the reading
of CO2 on the screen is“0”.) The message disappears upon completion of the zeroing.

Warning: Incorrect zero reference calibration will result in false gas readings.

Caution:
 User may only perform zero reference calibration under the instruction of the
technical personnel authorized by manufacturer.
 Ensure the AG sensor is running more than 15min before replacing a new airway
adapter. Please perform zero more than 2min after replacement.

 Sidestream AG module:

The sidestream AG module needs to establish a zero reference level for the CO2, N2O
and anesthetic agent gas measurement. This zero calibration is here referred to as
"zeroing".
The sidestream AG module performs zeroing automatically by switching the gas
sampling from the respiratory circuit to ambient air. The automatic zeroing is performed
every 24 hours, and takes less than 3 seconds for CO2 module and less than 10 seconds for
AG module.
If the sidestream AG module is fitted with an oxygen sensor, the automatic zeroing

Chapter 5-68
Patient monitor user’s manual

will also include room air calibration of the oxygen sensor.

Warning: Since a successful zeroing requires the presence of ambient air (21%
O2 and 0% CO2) in the AG module, ensure that the AG module is placed in a
well ventilated place. Avoid breathing near the sidestream AG module before or
during the zeroing procedure.

5.10.5 MAC Calculation


Minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) is a standard for comparing the potency of
inhalation anesthetics. The MAC value represents the alveolar concentration of an
anesthetic (at one atmosphere) that, in 50 percent of a tested population, prevents gross
muscular movement in response to a painful, standardized stimulus.
The MAC value may be calculated and displayed by using end-tidal (Et) gas
concentrations according to the following formula:

 Note:
 Altitude, patient age and other individual factors are not considered in the
formula above.
 ET gas concentrations for secondary agent (AA2) is only available for IRMA
AX+ sensors.

5.10.6 Maintenance and disinfecting

 Mainstream AG sensor:
The IRMA sensor can be cleaned using a cloth moistened with maximum 70% ethanol
or maximum 70% isopropyl alcohol.
Remove the disposable IRMA Airway Adapter prior to cleaning the IRMA sensor.

Caution:
 The IRMA airway adapters are non-sterile devices. Do not autoclave the devices
as this will damage them.
 Never sterilize or immerse the IRMA sensor in liquid.

 Sidestream AG module:

Chapter 5-69
Patient monitor user’s manual

The ISA sidestream module should be cleaned on a regular basis.


Use a cloth moistened with max 70% ethanol or isopropyl alcohol to clean the module.
To prevent cleaning liquids and dust from entering the ISA sidestream module through
its inlet port, keep the Nomoline sampling line connected while cleaning the module.

Warning:
 The Nomoline sampling lines are non-sterile devices. To avoid damage, do not
autoclave any part of the sampling line.
 Never sterilize or immerse the ISA sidestream module in liquid.

Replacement of sampling line


The Nomoline sampling line is non-reusable.
Every two weeks or whenever "Sampling line clogged" appears, whichever comes first,
the Nomoline sampling line should be replaced.

5.10.7 Maintenance
The ISA sidestream module is permanently factory calibrated. The module’s stable
design, results in no routine calibrations. If you want to conduct a maintenance task for the
module, please send it to manufacturer.

5.11 Measurement of ICG


5.11.1 General
Impedance cardiography (ICG) is a safe, non-invasive method to measure a patient's
hemodynamic status. The ICG waveform is generated by thoracic electrical bioimpedance
(TEB) technology, which measures the level of change in impedance in the thoracic fluid.
Four small sensors send and receive a low amplitude electrical current through the thorax
to detect the level of change in resistance in the thoracic fluid. With each cardiac cycle,

Chapter 5-70
Patient monitor user’s manual

fluid levels change, which affects the impedance to the electrical signal transmitted by
the sensors.
ICG uses an advanced algorithm to determine the level of change in impedance, to
generate ICG waveform, and to calculate or derive hemodynamic parameters.

5.11.2 Precautions during ICG monitoring

 Warning:
 Do not allow patients to wear ICG sensors when undergoing Magnetic
Resonance Imaging (MRI) due to risk of severe burns.
 Ensure that the sensor gel, sensors or lead wires do not contact any other
conductive materials (including earth-grounded materials) during patient
monitoring.
 The ICG measurement is designed for assessment of most adult patients. ( Height
122-229 cm and weight 30-159 kg)
 Do not conduct ICG monitoring on the patient with minute ventilation sensor
function pacemaker (MV pacemaker), and the MV pacemaker function is
enabled.
 The ICG sensor can only be applied to one patient at one time.

5.11.3 Effect factor


When patients present with the following conditions or anomalies may demonstrate
reduced accuracy:
 Septic shock
 Aortic valve regurgitation
 Severe hypertension (Mean > 130 mmHg)
 Patient’s height and weight exceed the specified range
 Connection to an intra-aortic balloon pump or chest tubes
 Patient movement, includes tremor
 Signal interference from patient cable or power wire connection
 The chest surgery that may change the blood and current in chest

5.11.4 Monitoring Procedure


 Skin preparation
Good sensor-to-skin contact is important for a good ICG signal, as the skin is a poor

Chapter 5-71
Patient monitor user’s manual

conductor of electricity. It is necessary to clean the patient’s skin for sensors placement, as
the following step:
1. Select sites with intact skin, without impairment of any kind.
2. Clip or shave hair from sites as necessary.
3. Gently abrade the skin and remove dead skin cells to improve the conductivity of the
sensor site.
4. Wash sites thoroughly with soap and water, leaving no soap residue.
We do not recommend using ether or pure alcohol, because this dries the skin and
increases the resistance.
5. Dry skin thoroughly.
 Connect ICG cable
Plug the ICG cable into the ICG socket on the left panel of monitor (refer to Fig.1-5-1).

 Place sensors on patient


In order to get good signals and accurate data, it is important to place ICG sensors on
appropriate position, as follow:

1. A pair of sensors placed below the earlobe on each side of the neck.
2. Another pair of sensors placed on the midaxillary line at the xiphoid process level.
3. The two sensors must be placed right on the opposite position (180°).
 Input patient information
1. Select〈ICG〉, open the〈ICG Setup〉menu;
2. Select〈Input Info〉;
3. Set the parameters, including height, weight, sex, age, SYS, DIA, MEAN, CVP and

Patient monitor user’s manual

Chapter 6 Alarm
This chapter gives general information about the alarm and corresponding remedies.

 Note: The equipment generates all the auditory and visual alarms through
speaker, LED and screen.

6.1 Alarm Priority

There are two kinds of alarms, defined as physiological alarm and technical alarm.
Physiological alarms refer to those alarms triggered by patient’s physiological situation
which could be considered dangerous to his or her life, such as SpO2 exceeding alarm
limit (parameter alarms). Technical alarms refer to system failure, which can make certain
monitoring process technically impossible or make monitoring result unbelievable.
General alarm belongs to those situations that cannot be categorized into these two cases
but still need to pay some attention. Each alarm, either technical or physiological, has it’s
own priority.
Alarms in the monitor are divided into three priorities, that is: high priority, medium
priority and low priority.
 High priority alarm indicates the patient’s life is in danger. It is the most serious
alarm.
 Medium priority alarm means serious warning.
 Low priority alarm is a general warning.
Only alarm priority of parameters exceeding limits alarm can be modified by the user,
the other alarm priorities of physiological and technical alarms are preset by the system
and they can not be changed by the user.

6.2 Alarm Modes

When alarm occurs, the monitor may raise the user’s attention in two ways, which are
auditory prompt, visual prompt and description. Visual prompt is given by alarm
indicating lamp and screen of the monitor, auditory prompt is given by speaker in the
device. Physiological alarm information is displayed in the Physiological Alarm area.
Most of technical alarm information is displayed in the Technical Alarm area. Technical
alarms related to NIBP measurement are displayed in the NIBP parameter area.

Chapter 6-1
Patient monitor user’s manual

The Physiological Alarm area is on the upmost right part of the screen. The Technical
Alarm area is to the left side of the Physiological Alarm area.
The alarm sound and visual display comply with clause 201.3.2 of the standard IEC
60601-1-8.

 Note: The concrete presentation of each alarm prompt is related to the alarm
priority.

 Alarm Sound
The high/medium/low-level alarms are indicated by the system in following different
audio ways:
Alarm level Audio prompt
Mode is “DO-DO-DO------DO-DO, DO-DO-DO------DO-DO”,
High which is triggered once every 10 seconds.
Medium Mode is “DO-DO-DO”, which is triggered once every 25 seconds.
Low Mode is “DO-”, which is triggered once every 25 seconds.

 Alarm Lamp

Chapter 8-1
Patient monitor user’s manual

the applied part according IEC 60601-1:1995, Limit: 5mA(BF), 50uA(CF).


The leakage current should never exceed the limit. The data should be recorded in an
equipment log. If the device is not functioning properly or fails any of the above tests, the
device has to be repaired.
The synchronism of the defibrillator should be checked by in the frequency described in
the hospital regulations. At least every 3 months, it should be checked by the biomedical
engineer of the hospital or qualified service technician.
All the checks that need to open the monitor should be performed by qualified service
technician. The safety and maintenance check can be conducted by persons from the
manufacturer. You can obtain the material about the customer service contract from the
local office.
The circuit diagrams, parts lists and calibration instructions of the patient monitor can
be provided by the manufacturer.

 Warning: If the hospital or agency that is responding to using the monitor does
not follow a satisfactory maintenance schedule, the monitor may become invalid, and
the human health may be endangered.

 Note: To ensure maximum battery life, please ensure that the battery is fully
charged when you are keeping the device in storage for an extended period of time,
and then take out the battery.

 Warning: Refer the battery replacement only to manufacturer’s service


technician.

8.2 Battery Maintenance

A rechargeable and maintenance-free battery is designed for Patient Monitor, which


enables continuous working when AC power off. Special maintenance is not necessary in
the normal situation. Please pay attention to the followings in using for more durable
usage and a better capability.
 Operate the patient monitor in the environment according to the instruction.
 Use AC power for the patient monitor when available.
 Recharge the battery sooner when it is off. The volume of battery will not be charged
to what it should be, when the battery has not been charged for a long time.

Chapter 8-2
Patient monitor user’s manual

 If the monitor is not used for long time, the AC power should be plugged in until the
battery is fully recharged, then take out the battery, so that the service life of the battery
will not be shortened.
 Avoid exposed and sun shine.
 Avoid infrared and ultraviolet radiation.
 Avoid moist, dust and erosion from acid gas.
For Lithium ion battery:
A lithium ion battery needs at least two conditioning cycles when it is put into use for
the first time. A battery conditioning cycle is one complete, uninterrupted charge of the
battery, followed by a complete, uninterrupted discharge of the battery. A lithium ion
battery should be conditioned regularly to maintain its useful life. Condition a battery once
when it is used or stored for two months, or when its run time becomes noticeably shorter.
To condition a lithium ion battery, follow this procedure:
1. Disconnect the monitor from the patient and stop all monitoring and measuring
procedures.
2. Place the lithium ion battery in need of conditioning into battery compartment of the
monitor.
3. Connect the monitor to the AC mains. Allow the battery to be charged uninterruptedly
for above 6 hours.
4. Remove the AC mains and allow the monitor to run from the battery until it shuts off.
5. Reconnect the monitor to the AC mains. Allow the battery to be charged uninterruptedly
for above 6 hours.
Now the battery is conditioned and the monitor can be returned to service.

8.3 General Cleaning

equipment is switched off and disconnected from the power line.

The Patient Monitor must be kept dust-free.


Regular cleaning of the monitor shell and the screen is strongly recommended. Use only
non-caustic detergents such as soap and water to clean the monitor shell.
Please pay special attention to the following items:
1. Avoid using ammonia-based or acetone-based cleaners such as acetone.
2. Most cleaning agents must be diluted before use. Follow the manufacturer’s

Chapter 8-3
Patient monitor user’s manual

directions carefully to avoid damaging the monitor.


3. Don’t use the grinding material, such as steel wool etc.
4. Don’t let the cleaning agent enter into the chassis of the system.
5. Don’t leave the cleaning agents at any part of the equipment.

8.4 Cleaning Agents

Examples of disinfectants that can be used on the instrument casing are listed below:
 Diluted soap solution
 Diluted Ammonia Water
 Diluted Sodium Hypochlorite (Bleaching agent).

 Note: The diluted sodium hypochlorite from 500ppm (1:100 diluted bleaching
agent) to 5000ppm (1:10 bleaching agents) is very effective. The concentration of the
diluted sodium hypochlorite depends on how many organisms (blood, mucus) on the
surface of the chassis to be cleaned.

 Hydrogen Peroxide 3%
 Alcohol 70%
 Isopropyl alcohol 70%
The surface of patient monitor can be cleaned with hospital-grade ethanol and dried in
air or with crisp and clean cloth.
The manufacturer has no responsibility for the effectiveness of controlling infectious
disease using these chemical agents. Please contact infectious disease experts in you
hospital for details.

8.5 Disinfection

To avoid extended damage to the equipment, disinfection is only recommended when


stipulated as necessary in the Hospital Maintenance Schedule. Disinfection facilities
should be cleaned first.

NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and
reflection from structures, objects and people.
a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile
radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy.
To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be
considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Low Frequency Therapeutic Device is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Low Frequency Therapeutic Device should be observed to
verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as
reorienting or relocating the Low Frequency Therapeutic Device.
b Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
