Page 7: Combination Options
2.3 Combination options You can use modules individually or connected in series of up to three modules. Another option is to connect up to three modules to the MEDUMAT ventilation device. Always operate only one module or one Medumat at a time. If you use modules simultaneously, it is possible the supply of will be inadequate. -
Page 8: Safety Instructions
3. Safety instructions 3.1 Safety instructions For your own safety and that of your patients, and in accordance with the requirements of directive 93/ 42/EEC, observe the points below. General • Please read these instructions for use through carefully. They are a constituent part of the device and must be available at all times. - Page 9 Suction MODULE or Combi MODULE breaks down. Accessories/repairs • Have repair work performed only by the manufacturer, WEINMANN Emergency, or authorized staff. • If third-party items are used, functional failures and restricted fitness for use may result. Biocompatibility requirements may also not be met.
- Page 10 Do not empty cylinders completely, otherwise damp ambient air may penetrate and lead to corrosion. Inhalation • If you use WEINMANN Emergency inhalation masks, a dangerous rise in pressure is not possible. • However, please ensure that the exhaled respiratory gas can flow away freely.

familiar with aspiration technology. Severe physical injuries can be caused by incorrect use. • Pay particular attention during aspiration to en- sure that no injuries are caused to the patient’s oropharyngeal cavities, e.g. to the mucous membranes. • For bronchial aspiration, work under sterile conditions and use only sterile aspiration catheters. -
Page 12: Side Effects

4. Assembly If the modules are supplied complete on a LIFE-BASE or LIFE-BASE Mini carrying platform, they are operational and you need not perform any further assembly. 4.1 Assembling the modules Connecting 1. Release the connection to the oxygen supply (see “Removing an empty cylinder”... -
Page 14: Connecting Oxygen Supply
5. Connect any other modules in exactly the same way. No more than 3 modules may be connected, otherwise it is impossible to guarantee compliance with the specified technical data. 6. Screw the modules and, if appropriate, the MEDUMAT onto the assembly plate from the back as shown in the assembly instructions provided, screw the modules to a solid wall from the back. - Page 15 You should always connect the oxygen supply at the extreme left-hand module, as oxygen inlet of all modules is equipped with a nonreturn valve. The nonreturn valve ensures that the oxygen can get Inlet with nonreturn in but cannot get out at this connection. valve Oxygen outlet has no non-return valve.

2. Screw the top part of the bubble humidifier onto the corresponding threaded connection of the Oxygen MODULE or the Combi MODULE by hand. 3. Fill the bottom part up to the mark with distilled water (aqua dest.) and screw the tank back on. 4. - Page 19 2. Put both aspirate bottles in the holder. 3. Connect the bottles and the module with the appropriate tubes. Ensure that the bottle with the overflow cutout is connected to the module first. We recommend fitting a hydrophobic bacteria filter WM 22291 for the exhaust air to prevent secretion and bacteria penetrating the module.

Page 21: Oxygen Module
5. Oxygen MODULE 5.1 Inhalation function You can perform oxygen inhalation using the Oxygen MODULE. Conditions of use Oxygen inhalation only makes sense in emergency patients who are still breathing spontaneously. This is the case with breathing disorders, for example. In the event of respiratory failure, inhalation of oxygen is by no means adequate and artificial ventilation will be required here. -
Page 22: Operation
5.2 Operation Oxygen supply 1. Open the oxygen supply valve . The slowly contents pressure gauge now shows cylinder pressure. 2. Calculate remaining operating time, if appropriate (see “Calculating filling level” on page 43). Method 1. Switch on oxygen inhalation at toggle switch MODUL Oxygen 2. -
Page 23: Stop Inhalation
5.3 Stop inhalation 1. Check the oxygen reserve at the contents pressure gauge of the pressure reducer. 2. Close the oxygen supply valve and wait until the system is depressurized. 3. Turn dial to the left-hand stop (to “zero”). This prevents the pressure gauge being damaged by hammering when the device is switched back 4. -

Method 1. Switch on the vacuum at toggle switch MODUL Suction 2. Close the fingertip regulator and hold the opening of the end-piece closed so that no more air can flow through it. 3. Regulate the vacuum using dial . There are three revolutions of the dial between minimum and maximum. -
Page 26: Combi Module
7. Combi MODULE You can use the Combi MODULE to perform oxygen inhalation or aspiration. Oxygen inhalation and aspiration may not be used simultaneously, otherwise oxygen output is reduced during inhalation. 7.1 Inhalation function Conditions of use Oxygen inhalation only makes sense in emergency patients who are still breathing spontaneously. -
Page 27: Vacuum/Aspiration Function
7.2 Vacuum/aspiration function The Combi MODULE can also be used to aspirate accumulations of blood, secretions or bits of food from the oral cavity, the nasopharyngeal cavity and the bronchial system. The OMNIVAC secretion aspiration system, complete with tubes, is available as an accessory. There is an example in the adjacent picture. -

Page 32: Cpap Module
9. CPAP MODULE 9.1 CPAP function You can use the CPAP MODULE to perform CPAP therapy in conjunction with a CPAP valve approved by WEINMANN Emergency. Conditions of use Therapy may only be carried out on emergency patients who are breathing spontaneously. - Page 33 Method 1. Switch on the oxygen supply to the CPAP valve MODUL by switching toggle switch CPAP 2. If oxygen escapes from the O outlet, switch it off by turning dial to the left until you feel it reach the stop. 3.
- Page 34 Stop CPAP therapy 1. Check the oxygen reserve at the contents pressure gauge of the pressure reducer. 2. Close the oxygen supply valve and wait until the system is depressurized. 3. Turn dial anti-clockwise until you feel it reach the stop. This will prevent the next patient inadvertently obtaining too high a CPAP pressure.

Page 35: Omnivac Secretion Aspiration System
10. OMNIVAC secretion aspiration system The OMNIVAC secretion aspiration system consists of one or two aspirate bottles and the necessary tubing. The aspirate bottles are available in capacities of 250 ml, 500 ml or 1000 ml. An overflow cutout in the lid of the bottle stops secretion penetrating the module by a ball floating on the surface of the secretion and blocking the outlet. -
Page 36: Starting Work
10.1 Starting work Cleaning will be facilitated if you pour about 50 ml of disinfectant or water into the aspirate bottle before you start. The aspirated matter is then less likely to adhere to the bottom of the bottle. 1. If necessary, adapt the end-piece of an Fingertip regulator aspirating catheter of a suitable size for tracheal Catheter... - Page 37 Important! Please ensure that the aspirate bottles are always upright during operation, otherwise the ball of the overflow cutout cannot reliably block the connection to the vacuum source. This could result in secretion getting into the vacuum source. For hygiene reasons, we therefore recommend using hydrophobic bacteria filter WM 22291.

Page 38: Stop Aspiration
Emptying the aspirate bottle When the aspirate bottle is full to the limit, you must interrupt the aspiration process and empty the aspirate bottle. Important! When taking off and emptying the aspirate bottle, please ensure that the lid does not accidentally come off the bottle and cause the contents to spill. -
Page 39: Hygiene Treatment
11. Hygiene treatment The modules and the accessories used must be subjected to a hygiene treatment after every use. After that, you should always perform a function check (see “12. Function check” on page 42). 11.1 Preparing the OMNIVAC secretion aspiration system Note When taking off and emptying aspirate bottles,... -
