Warnings, Cautions, & Notes NOTE! Dyes introduced into the bloodstream, such as methylene blue, indocyanine green, indigo carmine, patent blue V (PBV), and fluorescein may adversely affect the accuracy of the SpO reading. NOTE! Any condition that restricts blood flow, such as use of a blood pressure cuff or extremes in systemic vascular resistance, may cause an inability to determine accurate pulse rate and SpO readings.
Chapter 1: Introduction Chapter 1: Introduction About the Manual The Operation Manual provides installation, operation, and maintenance instructions for health-care professionals and other users, trained in monitoring respiratory and cardiovascular activity. Theory of Operation The oximeter determines SpO and pulse rate by passing two wavelengths of low intensity light, one red and one infrared, through body tissue to a photodetector.
The oximeter will operate accurately over an ambient temperature range of 32 to 131°F (0 to 55°C). The oximeter works with all BCI oximetry sensors providing SpO 2 and pulse rate on all patients from neonate to adult.
Chapter 3: Controls & Features Chapter 3: Controls & Features Monitor Front Panel Figure 3.1: Monitor Front Panel %SpO 1. Sensor/Printer Connector The sensor connects here, or an oximetry cable can be connected between the monitor and the sensor. The serial printer or pc communication cable is also connected here. 2.
Chapter 3: Controls & Features Figure 3.2: Monitor Operating Keys %SpO ON OFF Key Pressing this key turns the monitor ON and OFF. PRINT Key Pressing this key turns on the optional printer located at the back of the monitor. Speaker Silence Key Momentarily pressing this key silences the speaker.
Chapter 4: Operating Instructions Chapter 4: Operating Instructions WARNING: This device must be used in conjunction with clinical signs and symptoms. This device is only intended to be an adjunct in patient assessment. Unpacking the Monitor 1. Carefully remove the monitor and its accessories from the shipping carton. Save the packing materials in case the monitor must be shipped or stored.
Chapter 4: Operating instructions Attaching the Sensor to the Patient What you need to know about attaching the sensor to the patient: WARNING! Prolonged use or the patient’s condition may require changing the sensor site periodically. Change sensor site and check skin integrity, circulatory status, and correct alignment at least every 4 hours.
Chapter 4: Operating Instructions Care and Handling of the Sensor WARNING! Misuse or improper handling of the sensor and cable could result in damage to the sensor. This may cause inaccurate readings. Hold the connector rather than the cable when connecting or disconnecting the sensor to the device as shown in Figure 4.1.
Chapter 4: Operating instructions Checking the Sensor and Oximetry Cable Follow these instructions each time before you attach the sensor to the patient. This helps ensure the sensor and oximetry cable are working properly. WARNING! Using a damaged sensor may cause inaccurate readings. Inspect each sensor.
Chapter 4: Operating Instructions Turning On the Monitor 1. To turn on the monitor, press the key. When turned ON, the monitor does the following: • The top segment of the pulse strength bar graph illuminates. • The monitor's software revision is momentarily displayed. •...
Pulse oximeters do not require user calibration. If checking the function of the device is desired, an optional Oximeter/ECG Patient Simulator (BCI catalog number 1606HH) is available as an accessory. The simulator attaches to the oximeter in place of the sensor or oximetry cable.
Chapter 5: Patient Numbers & Trend Data Chapter 5: Patient Numbers & Trend Data Description Whenever the monitor is on, it stores one SpO and one pulse rate reading every thirty (30) seconds. The stored readings are called trend data. The monitor remembers trend data for up to 99 patients and 14 hours of run-time, depending on battery condition.
Chapter 6: Printer Chapter 6: Printer Description Data can be printed in either data log, or trend data mode. In the trend data mode, up to 14 hours of previously stored data, collected from 1 to 99 patients, is printed. Data log prints real time data.
Chapter 6: Printer Trend Printouts Collecting Trend Data Whenever the monitor is on, it stores one SpO and one pulse rate reading every thirty (30) seconds. The stored readings are called trend data. The monitor remembers trend data for up to 99 patients and 14 hours of run-time, depending upon battery life.
Chapter 6: Printer Paper Feed To advance paper through the printer, press and hold PRINT for 3 seconds (not at power up). The paper-feed will start. Press the PRINT key again to stop the printer, otherwise the printer will stop in about 25 seconds after printing 30 empty lines. This is enough time to flip the device over and slide the paper end into the slot until the printer captures the paper and feeds it through.
Chapter 7: PC Communication Setup Chapter 7: PC Communication Setup Description The device will send out Trend Data through the sensor connector when the sensor / patient cable is not plugged in. An additional cable is used to connect the device to a serial printer or PC computer.
