Foreword Introduction Foreword The Duo Operating Instructions are intended to provide information for proper operation. General knowledge of monitoring and an understanding of the features and the functions of the Duo Monitor are prerequisites for proper use. Do not operate this monitor before reading these instructions. Information for servicing this instrument is contained in the Duo Monitor Service Manual, (Part Number 0070-00-0604-02).
Introduction Warnings Warnings WARNING: The Duo monitor is not intended for unsupervised, continuous monitoring. It is for spot-check use only. WARNING: Maintain extreme caution when a defibrillator is in use, avoiding contact with any part of the patient, table or monitor.
The use of portable and mobile RF communications equipment, in the proximity of the Duo, can affect the performance of this monitor. CAUTION: Use only Mindray DS accessories with this product. For a comprehensive listing of Duo Accessories refer to section 4.0, “Accessories.” CAUTION: The patient size selection should be matched to the actual patient before monitoring begins.

Precautions Introduction CAUTION: A patient's skin is sometimes fragile (i.e., on pediatric and geriatric patients, or due to physiological conditions). In these cases, a longer duration between NIBP measurements should be considered to decrease the number of cuff inflations over a period of time. In extreme cases, a thin layer of soft roll or cotton padding may be applied to the limb in order to cushion the skin when the cuff is inflated.
Introduction Notes Notes NOTE: Potential hazards due to errors in software or hardware have been minimized by actions taken in accordance with IEC 60601-1-4. NOTE: Information codes and error codes with corresponding explanations are provided to assist in the identification and correction of problems that may occur with the monitor.

Operation Initial Set-Up Use the following procedure to change the units of measure. 1. Ensure that the power to the Duo is OFF. 2. Press and hold the Clear/Next Patient key. 3. While continuing to hold the Clear/Next Patient key, press and hold the Power ON/OFF key for two (2) seconds until the Duo beeps.
Routine Operation Operation Routine Operation This section provides guidelines and step-by-step instructions for the vital sign measurements that are routinely performed with the Duo. 2.3.1 NIBP Measurement CAUTION: A patient's skin is sometimes fragile (i.e., on pediatric and geriatric patients, or due to physiological conditions). In these cases, a longer duration between NIBP measurements should be considered to decrease the number of cuff inflations over a period of time.
Page 28
American Heart Association. CAUTION: Use only Mindray DS blood pressure cuffs and hoses with the Duo. 2. Attach the NIBP cuff to the NIBP extension hose. 3. Attach the NIBP extension hose to the NIBP pneumatic fitting on the Duo.
Routine Operation Operation The cuff begins to inflate. After reaching the default pressure for the selected patient size, the cuff slowly deflates and the Duo collects oscillometric pulsations. During this inflation and deflation portion of the measurement, the MAP section of the NIBP parameter tile displays the current pressure in the cuff.
Operation Routine Operation 2.3.3 Measurement (Optional) Each of the following terms are associated with blood oxygenation: oxygen saturation, pulse oximetry, SpO and plethysmography. Oxygen saturation in capillary blood is measured by a method called pulse oximetry. Pulse oximetry is a continuous and non-invasive measurement of the amount of oxygen attached to the hemoglobin in red blood cells (also known as oxyhemoglobin saturation).
Page 31
Routine Operation Operation CAUTION: Do not place the SpO2 sensor on an extremity with an invasive catheter or blood pressure cuff in place. CAUTION: Tissue damage or inaccurate measurement may be caused by incorrect SpO2 sensor application or use, such as wrapping too tightly, applying supplemental tape, failing to inspect the sensor site periodically or failing to position appropriately.
Page 32
Operation Routine Operation 2.3.3.1 Masimo SET ® The Masimo pulse oximeter determines SpO in the traditional manner of passing red and infrared light into a capillary bed and measuring changes in light absorption during the pulsatile cycle. It assumes that arterio-venous shunting is highly variable and that fluctuating absorbance by venous blood is the major component of noise during the pulse.

Routine Operation Operation 2.3.3.2 Nellcor ® Nellcor provides a family of sensors suitable for a wide variety of clinical settings and patients. Specific sensors have been developed for a variety of patient sizes. CAUTION: When equipped with Nellcor SpO2, use only Nellcor oxygen sensors and cables.
