MAY OCCUR. NEITHER THE MONITOR NOR THE ELECTRODES ARE DESIGNED FOR USE IN A MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING (MRI) ENVIRONMENT. THIS ANI Monitor V1 CANNOT BE IN ANY CASE CONSIDERED AS AN ECG MONITORING SYSTEM. WHEN USING ELECTRO-CONVULSIVE THERAPY (ECT) EQUIPMENT DURING ANI MONITORING: place ECT electrodes as far away as possible from the sensor to minimize the effect of interference.

INTERFACE CABLE MUST BE CAREFULLY PLACED AND SECURED. DO NOT PLACE THE SKIN ELECTRODES BETWEEN DEFIBRILLATOR PADDLES WHEN THEY ARE USE ON A PATIENT CONNECTED TO THE ANI Monitor V1. REUSING A SENSOR ALREADY USED ON ANOTHER PATIENT COULD LEAD TO CROSS-CONTAMINATION.
Page 9
WHEN A BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN PERIODICALLY PERFORMS MAINTENANCE. WHENEVER AN EVENT SUCH AS SPILLAGE OF BLOOD OR LIQUIDS OCCURS ON THE ANI Monitor V1, RE-TEST GROUND LEAKAGE CURRENT BEFORE FURTHER USE. OBSERVE UNIVERSAL PRECAUTIONS TO PREVENT CONTACT WITH BLOOD OR OTHER POTENTIALLY INFECTIOUS MATERIALS.
PORTABLE RF COMMUNICATIONS EQUIPMENT (INCLUDING PERIPHERALS SUCH AS ANTENNA CABLES AND EXTERNAL ANTENNAS) SHOULD BE USED NO CLOSER THAN 30 CM (12 INCHES) TO ANY PART OF THE ANI Monitor V1, INCLUDING CABLES SPECIFIED BY THE MANUFACTURER. OTHERWISE, DEGRADATION OF THE PERFORMANCE OF THIS EQUIPMENT COULD RESULT.

Reusing a sensor could reduce its adhesion. The ANI Monitor V1 should not be used near or placed on top of another electrical equipment. If however this is unavoidable, check regularly that the ANI Monitor V1 operates properly in this configuration.
ANI Monitor V1 will switch off automatically. After reconnecting the ANI Monitor V1 to the main power supply, press the power switch on the front side of the monitor. In case the monitor does not start, press the switch at the back of the monitor in order to reboot the device.
2 ANI Monitor V1 Indications for use: The Mdoloris Medical Systems SAS ANI Monitor V1 is intended to acquire, display, and analyze electrocardiographic information and to measure-heart rate variability. These and other measurements are not intended for any specific clinical diagnosis. The clinical significance of HRV and other parameters must be determined by the physician.
Page 14
The ANI Monitor V1 displays two averaged ANI measurements: ANIi results from the average of ANI measured over the last 120 sec, and ANIm results from the average of ANI measured over the last 240 sec.
Installing the ANI Monitor V1 Perfusion stand Position the ANI Monitor V1 in order for the main power supply to be easily plugged in. The monitor can be installed on a perfusion stand (figure 1) by using a specific "pole clamp", which fit pole diameters ranging from 19 to 38 mm.

ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system Conductive gel Adhesive portion Figure 2 Figure 3 The principle of this two-part device is to place it on each side of the heart (thus on each side of the chest) to get a cardiac vector (the axis of the average cardiac vector according to the reference anatomical position is: forward, down and left).
ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system NOTE: The ANI Monitor V1 has been designed to work with specific disposable sensors. It is inadvisable to use another kind of electrode. Electrodes are packaged ten per bag. New electrodes can be purchased in boxes of ten bags i.e.

ANI Monitor V1 will switch off automatically. After reconnecting the ANI Monitor V1 to the main power supply, press the power switch on the front side of the monitor (figure 12). In case the monitor does not start, press the switch at the back of the monitor (figure 13) in order to reboot the device.

Rear power switch Figure 13 The monitor will start by showing the Mdoloris Medical Systems logo animations successively. The screen will then show the start page automatically, indicating “Calibration” on the central screen (figure 14). The first ANI measurement will take at least 80 seconds. No data can be interpreted before this initialization time lapse.
ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system Figure 15 Check for good ECG signal quality in the lower part of the screen. If there is no signal, check the connection between the monitor and the electrodes. Try at least once to unplug and plug in the connection again to recover the ECG signal.
