IBP option. Consult the Troubleshooting section if the M Series fails to operate as expected. If you do not know how to use the M Series, see the M Series Operator’s Guide and the relevant inserts. Thoroughly read the safety considerations and warnings sections in both the M Series Operator’s Guide and the relevant inserts before operating your M Series product.
Then check the catheter, tubing, transducer, cabling and M Series IBP option for proper functioning. • Do not immerse the M Series device, batteries, cables, or transducers in water, solvents, or cleaning solutions. • If the M Series device gets wet accidentally, wipe it down with a clean towel.
• Configure alarms to go off when the unit detects pressure values above or below user-programmable limits. How Do I Use the IBP Option? To take safe and accurate pressure measurements using the M Series IBP option, you must do all of the following: Select the proper transducer.
1. Inspect the transducer and the cable for wear, breakage or fraying. Replace cable or transducer if necessary. 2. Connect the transducer to the IBP interface cable, if applicable. 3. Connect the IBP cable to the IBP connector on the front panel of the M Series unit (see Fig. 1). Pressure Pressure...
Before you can zero the transducer, you must first display the IBP menu. You can display the IBP menu without leaving Monitor, Defib or Pacer mode. AEDs must be in manual mode to display the IBP menu. See the M Series Operator’s Guide for further details on activating the manual override mode.
Zeroing the Transducer To ensure that the M Series unit measures pressure accurately, you must zero the transducer before each use. The M Series automatically displays ZERO P1 or ZERO P2 when zeroing is necessary. If you change or disconnect a transducer, you must zero the new transducer before use. If you move a transducer to a different monitor, you must zero the transducer again even if you have already done so on another unit.
• Catheter clogging. • Air bubbles in catheter or transducer dome. Flush catheter regularly while taking IBP measurements. Always view the IBP AUTION trace to ensure pressure measurements are based on a physiological waveform. ZOLL M Series Invasive Blood Pressure...
