  • Page 7: Operation

    1. Operation Overview The Spacelabs Healthcare Models 90217A Ambulatory Blood Pressure (ABP) monitors are small, lightweight, battery-powered monitors designed to take blood pressure and heart rate measurements for 24 or 48 hours, or for longer periods of time. These measurements are recorded within the monitors and may be transferred to Local Report Generator 90239A, to Report Management Software (90121 or 92506) (optionally in Remote Connection mode using modems) or to CardioNavigator or Sentinel Cardiology Information Management Systems.
  • Page 8: Replacing The Batteries

    • Spacelabs Healthcare is not responsible for product damage incurred as a result of “AA” battery leakage. In the event your monitor has been damaged by a leaking battery, contact the battery manufacturer for any recoverable repair or replacement costs.

    ON/OFF during selected periods, event code display, and whether or not to display pressure values. To initialize the monitor, connect it to one of the following analysis systems. 1.3.1 Connecting Directly to a Local Report Generator For a direct connection, place the 90217A monitor into the chute on the Report Generator (Model 90239A), See Fig. 1-1.

Note: If call waiting or call forwarding are options on a telephone used to transfer data, ensure that both are deactivated.
  • Page 12: Office Check Mode

    Note: The 90217A enforces a 30 second minimum pause between measurements to allow reperfusion. If the START/STOP key is pressed too soon after the previous measurement, the monitor will count down the required period before automatically starting the measurement.
  • Page 13: Preparing The Patient And Precautions For Use

    Any event that prevents a successful blood pressure measurement (other than a manual cancel) is not counted as one of the five Office Check mode readings. 1.3.5.2 Reinstating Office Check Mode The Office Check mode may be reinstated in the 90217A. To reinstate the Office Check mode without initialization of the monitor: Power ON the monitor. Press and hold the START/STOP key when the version displays on the LCD.
  • Page 14 Strap the monitor to the patient’s hip opposite the side on which the cuff is worn. Secure the monitor using the patient’s own belt or the ABP pouch strapped over the opposite shoulder. When using the shoulder strap, use the belt supplied with the monitor or the patient’s belt to provide additional security. Ensure the accuracy of blood pressure measurements through proper cuff selection and application. To select the proper cuff, first measure the ABP 90217A Operations Manual...

    8. Show the patient how to enter information in the Patient Diary. Make sure the patient knows what to do if the cuff becomes very uncomfortable during a measurement, if it slips out of place, or if event codes are displayed on the monitor screen (refer to Patient Instructions on page 1-9). Also, ensure that the patient knows how to care for the monitor. When you are satisfied that the monitor is operating properly, the remaining measurements in the Office Check mode may be cancelled. Refer to Office Check Mode on page 1-8. 1.4.1 Using Cuff Support Note: Keeping the blood pressure cuff in place is very important both for patient comfort and for the accuracy of the readings. This becomes particularly challenging when the arm has considerable taper, as is often the case with obese patients.
  • Page 18: Patient Instructions

    • The patient should make every effort to keep the monitor dry. However, there is no hazard if the monitor does get wet. If this occurs, power the monitor OFF and return it to Spacelabs Healthcare for service. • The monitor should be kept within the pouch at all times.
  • Page 19: Cleaning The Cuff And Carrying Pouch

    • Isopropyl alcohol (70% solution). Note: Over time, repeated use of a chlorine bleach solution may cause some colors to fade. Tape adhesive can be removed with Spacelabs Healthcare adhesive tape remover pads (P/N 392196-001). Questions and concerns about cleaning issues should be directed to a Spacelabs Healthcare field service engineer. 1.6.1 Cleaning the Cuff and Carrying Pouch Small soiled or stained areas may be cleaned by gentle scrubbing with a sponge or cloth soaked in a mild soap and water solution.

  • Page 25: Accuracy

    Accuracy Checking Accuracy Spacelabs Healthcare recommend calibration of your ABP device annually The accuracy of the device can be checked using the following procedure. Required Equipment: • A full-size mercury sphygmomanometer or aneroid gauge. Note: Ensure the mercury sphygmomanometer or aneroid gauge is calibrated and indicates “0” with no pressure. • T-tube (P/N 016-0040-00). • A pressure cuff and a rigid cylinder sized to fit the pressure cuff. 070-2177-01 Rev B...
  • Page 26: Accuracy Procedure

    Figure 2-1:712-0039-00 Calibration Kit Press START/STOP on the monitor; the monitor should read approximately 165 mmHg. Compare the readings on the monitor and the manometer as the pressure bleeds down. The monitor reading should be within three millimeters or 2% of the manometer reading, whichever is greater (± the accuracy of the manometer). At the end of the procedure, the monitor displays an event code indicating that no dynamic blood pressure measurements were obtained. 4. Disconnect the T-tube splitter from the monitor. Disconnect the air hose and sphygmomanometer. ABP 90217A Operations Manual...

    Electromagnetic Compatibility 3.2.1 General notes The following notes and tables refer to the 90217A ABP monitor; for simplicity, these are refered to in this section as ‘the Monitor’. In testing the immunity of the 90217A, the following were regarded as ESSENTIAL PERFORMANCE per EN60601-1-2: • Less than 5mmHg variation in BP readings with a SD less than 2 mmHg. • Maintenance of stored blood pressure readings and patient data. • Maintenance of correct time and date. • No changes of operating mode or set-up selections. • No damage, failure, or safety hazard. • The following were regarded as acceptable responses to electrostatic discharges (ESD) only: • Reset followed by automatic recovery within 10 seconds. A measurement that is in progress may terminate early with an event code Portable and mobile communications equipment can affect medical electrical equipment. In particular, emergency service radios and walkie-talkies can generate very strong interference signals.

    IEC applicable 61000-3-2 Voltage fluctuations/ applicable flicker emissions IEC 61000-3-2 3.2.2.1 Continuation for manuals that may be used in the USA: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B computing device in accordance with the specifications in Subpart J of Part 15 of FCC Rules, which are designed to provide reasonable protection against interference to radio and television reception. This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions it may cause interference. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off or on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: • Reorient the receiving antenna. • Relocate the equipment with respect to the receiver. • Move the equipment away from the receiver. If necessary, the user should consult Spacelabs Healthcare or an experienced radio/ television technician for additional suggestions. The user may find the following booklet prepared by the Federal Communications Commission helpful: “How to Identify and Resolve Radio-TV Interference Problems”.

    Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the adjacent symbol: NOTE 1. At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies. NOTE 2. These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people. * Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the device is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the device should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the device. ** Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.
