Connecting The Gas Supply; Connecting The O 2 Supply - Dräger Carina Instructions For Use Manual

Assembly and preparation
The ventilation settings and the alarm limits remain
saved even in the event of a power supply failure.
A fully discharged battery will be fully recharged af-
ter about 2 hours of charging. The LED
Charging the internal battery, see page 115.

Connecting the gas supply

The device uses ambient air for ventilation, which is
delivered by means of an internal turbine.
The O supply is provided by one of the following
2
sources:
– Central gas supply system (HPO mode)
– Compressed gas cylinders (HPO mode)
– Low-pressure oxygen supply (LPO mode)

WARNING
Risk of explosion
Pressurized oxygen in conjunction with oil or
grease may spontaneously ignite.
Do not bring any oxygen supply components
into contact with oil and grease.
WARNING
Risk of patient injury
If compressed gases are used that are not ap-
proved for medical uses, the proper function-
ing of the device may be impaired.
Only use compressed gases approved for
medical use. The compressed gases must be
free of dust and oil particles and dry.

WARNING
Risk of patient injury
If the inspiratory oxygen concentration differs
from the ambient air concentration, monitor-
ing of the inspiratory oxygen concentration
with adjustable high and low alarm limits is
needed.
Connect an external oxygen monitor comply-
ing with ISO 21647 or ISO 80601-2-55 to the
breathing circuit. Otherwise no alarm will be
generated if the actual inspiratory oxygen
concentration differs from the set oxygen con-
centration.
WARNING
Risk of patient injury
If patients are dependent on ventilation, one of
the following parameters must be monitored:
– Expiratory tidal volume
– Expiratory minute volume
– End-tidal expiratory CO
If no patient monitoring is implemented, no
alarm will be generated in case of insufficient
patient ventilation.
Use suitable external monitors.
