EQUIPMENT CLASSIFICATION Classification according to IEC-60601-1 According to the type of protection against Class I equipment. electrical shock: According to the degree of protection against Type CF (defibrillator-proof) equipment. electrical shock: According to the degree of protection against Ordinary equipment (enclosed equipment harmful ingress of water: without protection against ingress of water).
Use only recommended Invivo patient cable, lead wires, cuffs, hoses, sensors, tubing, etc. Using other brands will compromise the safety and accuracy of the Precess MRI Patient Monitoring System. A list of all Invivo brand accessories can be found in the Accessories section within this manual.
Page 9
All equipment not complying with IEC 60601-1 must be placed outside the patient environment. Only connect IEC 60601-1-compliant equipment to the Precess MRI Patient Monitoring System. Always check the summation of leakage currents when several items of equipment are interconnected. Annual preventative maintenance is recommended unless stated otherwise in the service manual.
Page 10
Contact Invivo Service Support if additional information is required. Shock hazard exists if operated without chassis cover. Refer servicing to Invivo Service Support personnel only. For continued protection against fire hazard, replace fuses with same type and rating only.
PRECAUTIONS Patient Safety Whenever a patient is under anesthesia or connected to a ventilator constant attention by qualified medical personnel is needed. Some equipment malfunctions may occur in spite of equipment or monitoring alarms. Always test the sampling line adapter for a tight connection and proper operation before attaching to a patient.
Page 12
PRECAUTIONS MRI Use Precautions Certain components of the Precess MRI Patient Monitoring System will be affected by the magnetic and radio frequency fields present in your MRI magnet room. Confer with your MRI physicist and/or Radiology staff to identify the proper placement and use areas for the Precess MRI Patient Monitoring System and its accessories, as defined on the system or accessory labeling.

Page 16
PRECAUTIONS SpO2 Avoid placement of the SpO2 sensor on the same limb with an inflated blood pressure cuff. Cuff inflation could result in inaccurate readings and false alarm violations. SpO2 monitoring requires the detection of valid pulses to correctly determine SpO2 and Heart Rate values.
Page 17
PRECAUTIONS Invasive Pressures For best invasive pressure monitoring, always select the appropriate waveform scale for the waveform being observed. For invasive pressure monitoring, routinely inspect the catheter and/or pressure line for leaks after zeroing. Always follow the pressure transducer/catheter manufacturer’s use recommendations. Never place the pressure transducer(s) within the MRI bore.
Page 18
An internal leak may result in condensation within the system. If this is suspected, please contact Invivo. The Precess contains an exhaust port at the rear of the WPU that may be connected to the facility's anesthetic gas scavenging system, using the appropriate exhaust tube accessory.

Resonance environment. The Precess combines the latest wireless communication, radio frequency (RF) shielding, digital signal processing (DSP), and adaptable mounting technologies to address the challenges associated with patient monitoring in the MRI area. Built on Invivo’s strong heritage in MRI patient vital signs monitoring, the Precess provides accurate, continuous, and reliable performance during MRI applications.
Wireless ECG Module. The Wireless ECG (WECG) module communicates two leads of ECG simultaneously to the WPU. These two leads of ECG can be displayed at the DCU and are output from the WPU unit for interface to the MRI system cardiac gating input.
1.1.2 User Interface. A simple-to-use interface has been developed to minimize operator learning time. On the Display Control Unit (DCU), there is a Rotary Knob (which detents from selection to selection) that is used to access the parameter menus, access the various setup features and finalize any changes to the setup of the system.
• Compatibility. The WECG module supports the Quadtrode family of MRI compatible ECG Electrodes. • Visual Indicators. The WECG module contains one (1) bi-color LED that indicates the status of the battery charge. • Battery Life. The WECG module will operate at least eight (8) hours on a fully charged battery.

Visually inspect all accessories for damage. Replace any accessories that show signs of damage or abuse. Step 4. Report any problems to an authorized Invivo Service Representative. Step 5. Verify that each patient parameter is functioning properly before using the system on a patient.
View (FOV). Placing the Wireless ECG Module within the FOV may interrupt ECG monitoring during the MRI procedure and cause artifact on the MRI image. The Invivo MRI ECG lead wires (Part Numbers 9224, 9223, and 9222) are constructed of special material to reduce the amount of radio frequency (RF) energy that can flow through these wires.
ECG Electrode - Use only Invivo Quadtrode MRI ECG Electrodes. These ECG electrodes are design specifically for use in the MRI environment. Use of the Invivo Quadtrode electrodes will minimize the possible risk of ECG electrode and cable heating during MRI procedures and reduce the amount of MRI generated artifact on the ECG waveform.

• Failure to properly apply sensor will cause incorrect measurements. • The Invivo Part Number 9320 sensor is designed only to measure patient surface temperature. Do not insert this sensor into any patient body orifice. • Do not alter or modify sensor in any way. Alterations or modifications will affect performance, accuracy and will void warranty.
Fiber-Optic Surface Temperature Sensor to a patient: Before each use, carefully inspect the FiberTEMP reusable Fiber-optic surface temperature sensor (Invivo Part Number 9320) for damage. Use only FiberTEMP Sensor Applicators (Invivo Part Number 9321, 3-30) to apply this sensor to the patient. Applying the sensor to the Figure patient with tape will damage sensor and thus void sensor warranty.
Respiration Monitoring. Respiration is monitored by detecting the patient’s abdominal or chest wall motion through a pneumatic bellows placed at the patient’s chest. There are no user adjustable options for this Parameter. 3.8.1 Associated Respiration Displays. (See Figure 3-31.) Respiration information can only be displayed as numeric data.

If a parameter is off during any portion of the data storage period, the message ‘---/---’ shall be printed in place of its value. The Data Report printout ends with a lined area for writing in the ID/CASE number, the Patient's Name and the Operator Comments. PRINT NIBP REPORT.
DISABLED. Selecting this menu option will turn the Automatic Report Feature OFF. ENABLED. Selecting this menu option will turn the Automatic Report Feature ON. RETURN. Selecting the menu option will return the display to the Recorder Menu. AUTO RUN TIME. Selecting this menu option brings up the AUTO RUN TIME Menu where the operator can select the Automatic Strip Run Time.
Setting Up the Strip Chart. Perform the following procedure to configure the Strip Chart to the appropriate application: Press the RECORDER SETUP Menu-Select Key. To change Trace 1, which is defaulted to ECG1, press the Rotary Knob, highlight the desired parameter and press the Rotary Knob to accept the new selection.

The alarms system can be tested using a patient simulator (ECG, NIBP and SpO2) to exceed the individual parameter alarm limits as required. If a problem with the alarm tone or message system is suspected, this system must be referred to an Invivo qualified service technician for evaluation.
6.2.2 Range of High and Low Alarm Limits.Each patient parameter has a LOW and HIGH Alarm Limit value position as indicated by. numerics in the LOW and HIGH columns of Table 6-2. Alarm Limits displayed in this menu may be changed manually or automatically using the Rotary Knob after the patient parameter is selected.
Alarm Setup. Pressing the ALARMS SCREEN Menu-Select Key while in the Normal Monitoring Mode (Normal Screen displayed) with no icons highlighted will bring up the Alarms Menu (See Figure 6-1). Figure 6-1. The ALARMS Menu This menu has the following menu options associated with it: SET INDIVIDUAL.
