• A NOTE provides useful information regarding a function or procedure. KEY TO SYMBOLS A key to the symbols that may appear on the ANI Monitor V1 appears at the end of this section. Warnings LEAKAGE CURRENT MUST BE CHECKED BY A QUALIFIED BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN WHENEVER INSTRUMENT CASE IS OPENED.

ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system NEITHER THE MONITOR NOR THE SKIN ELECTRODES ARE DESIGNED FOR USE IN THE MRI ENVIRONMENT. THIS ANI Monitor V1 COULD NOT BE IN ANY CASE CONSIDERED AS AN ECG MONITORING SYSTEM. CONSIDERATIONS WHEN USING ELECTRO-CONVULSIVE THERAPY (ECT) EQUIPMENT DURING THE ANI MONITORING: place ECT electrodes as far away as possible from the sensors to minimize the effect of interference.

ENSURE PROPER CONTACT OF THE ELECTROSURGERY RETURN ELECTRODE TO AVOID POSSIBLE BURNS ON THE PATIENT VIA ANI ELECTRODES. THE CHARACTERISTICS OF ANI Monitor V1 EMISSIONS ALLOW IT TO BE USED IN INDUSTRIAL AREAS AND HOSPITALS (CISPR 11 CLASS A).

THE INTERFACE WIRE HAS TO BE CAREFULLY PLACED AND HELD DOWN TO PREVENT ANY PATIENT STRANGULATION RISK. DO NOT PLACE SKIN ELECTRODES BETWEEN DEFIBRILLATOR PADLLE WHEN IT’S USED ON A PATIENT CONNECTED TO THE ANI Monitor V1. USE AGAIN AN ARRAY ALREADY USED ON PREVIOUS PATIENT COULD LEAD RISK OF CROSS-CONTAMINATION.

ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system THE APPLICABLE SAFETY STANDARDS. AS A MATTER OF SAFE PRACTICE, THE INSTITUTION SHOULD ALSO CONDUCT TESTS TO VERIFY THESE CURRENTS ESPECIALLY WHEN QUALIFIED BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING TECHNICIAN PERIODICALLY OPENS THE INSTRUMENT CASE. WHENEVER AN EVENT SUCH AS SPILLAGE OF BLOOD OR SOLUTIONS OCCURS, RE-TEST GROUND LEAKAGE CURRENT BEFORE FURTHER USE.
Equipment should not be reachable by the patient. ANI Monitor V1 should not be used adjacent or stacked with other equipment. If adjacent or stacked use is necessary, the monitor should be observed to verify normal operation in the configuration in which it will be used.

The internal battery is not designed to withstand alone a long time monitoring. The internal battery of the ANI Monitor V1 allows the system to keep calculating the ANI while the patient is moved to another room or in case of temporary interruption of electrical main supply.
ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system Never use the ANI Monitor V1 while a surgery only with the battery power. The monitor must be plugged on electrical main supply, especially while an electrical bistoury is used. The recycling of this medical equipment (including the packaging) must be done in accordance with the national laws of the country on electronic wastes and environment.

It gives a reading of the proportion of p...
ANI Sensor V1 / ANI Sensor V2 / ANI Sensor V1 PLUS The ANI calculation is based on the RR intervals variability of ECG. The ANI Monitor V1 being not an ECG monitor, the electrodes have been designed to retrieve information related to QRS complex.
Page 16
Never put electrodes on injuries. Figure 4 NOTE: The ANI Monitor V1 has been designed to work with specific disposable electrodes. It is inadvisable using another kind of electrode. The electrode packaging is ten per bag. The purchase of new electrodes is available through a box with ten bags inside thus in total one hundred arrays.
ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system The biocompatibility has been made on every Mdoloris Medical Systems’ array. They match with ISO10993-5 and 10993-10. Before connecting, carefully align the notches on the connection support for a perfect match pins (figures 5 and 7). To disconnect the electrodes, grasp the plastic support by pressing on the locking mechanism and pull it normally to disengage it (figure 6).
Battery ANI-SENS-V1PLUS The ANI Monitor V1 contains an internal battery. The internal battery of the ANI Monitor V1 allows the system to keep calculating the ANI while the patient is moved to another room or in case of temporary interruption of electrical main supply. The internal battery is not designed to withstand alone a long time monitoring.

As a brutal stop, it could occur serious damages for next ignition and prevent a correct use. The monitor will start by showing Mdoloris Medical Systems logo animations successively. The first measure of the ANI will take at least 80 seconds. No data can be interpreted before this initialization time lapse.

ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system 5 ANI computing process ECG Capture At the bottom of the screen a sub-window displays the ECG acquired (figure 16). This ECG is filtered from all technical artifacts as well as from physiological ones (e.g. extrasystoles). In addition to this first step, we have developed an innovating algorithm based on the Fast Wavelets Transform, allowing us to precisely identify the R spics from the QRS signal.
ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system bigger stripped surface = high p tone Figure 18: R-R normalized series: high sinus respiratory arrhythmia amplitude ANI Index We have developed an innovating algorithm based on the amplitude assessment of respiratory patterns of the RR series.
ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system Patient tendency (medium trend) Instantaneous ANI Figure 20 So we give in the left window two curves (yellow and orange) that reflect the patient tendencies with time scale (figure 21). Figure 21 If R waves are not correctly detected, or too many ectopic beats are corrected, ANI measurements are suspended until ECG detection is correct or normal sinus rhythm is back.

ANI Monitor V1 - Continuous analgesia monitoring system calculated at this specific moment is not significant of the patient’s parasympathetic tone value. If the Energy index is lower than 0.05 or above 2.5, the ANI calculation is interrupted even if the ECG is still acquired. An Energy index lower than 0.05 or above 2.5 is not significant of the patient’s parasympathetic tone.
