6.2
Alarm Introduction
This chapter describes alarm functions and alarm settings.
Alarm Safety Information
WARNING
•
A potential hazard can exist if different alarm presets and default configuration settings are used for the same or similar equipment in the same care area, for example an intensive care unit or cardiac operating room.
•
If the monitor is connected to the central monitoring system (CMS) or other monitors, alarms can be presented and controlled remotely. Remote suspension, inhibition, or reset of monitor alarms via the CMS or other monitors may cause a potential hazard. For more information, see the operator’s manuals for the CMS and the other monitors.
•
The monitors in the care area may each have different alarm settings to suit different patients.
Always check that the alarm settings are appropriate for the patient before starting the monitoring.
Always make sure that necessary alarm limits are active and set according to the patient's clinical condition.
•
Setting alarm limits to extreme values may cause the alarm system to become ineffective. For example, setting the SpO
2
high alarm limit to 100%, is equivalent to switching the alarm off.
•
When the alarm sound is switched off, the monitor gives no alarm tones even if a new alarm occurs.
Be careful when considering to switch off the alarm sound. When the alarms are off or while alarm audio is paused either temporarily or indefinitely, observe the patient frequently.
•
When monitoring patients that are not continuously attended by a clinical operator, properly configure the alarm system and adjust alarm settings as per the patient's condition.
•
Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for monitoring. Adjustment of alarm volume to a low level may result in a hazard to the patient.
6.3
6.3.1
6.3.2
Understanding the Alarms
Alarm Categories
The monitor has two different types of alarms: physiological alarms and technical alarms.
■
■
Physiological alarms are triggered by patient measurement exceeding the parameter limits, or by an abnormal patient conditions.
Technical alarms are triggered by an electrical, mechanical, connectivity, or other monitor abnormal operation, or by failure of a sensor or component. Technical alarm conditions may also be caused when an algorithm cannot classify or interpret the available data.
Apart from the physiological and technical alarms, the monitor can also prompt with some messages describing the system status or patient status.
Alarm Priorities
By severity, the alarms are classified into the following priority levels:
■
■
High priority alarms: indicate a life threatening situation or a severe device malfunction. High priority alarms require an immediate response.
Medium priority alarms: indicate abnormal vital signs or a device malfunction. Medium priority alarms require a timely response.
BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 6 - 1
6.3.3
■
■
Low priority alarms: indicate a discomfort condition, a device malfunction, or an improper operation. Low priority alarms require you to be aware of this condition.
Messages: provides additional information on the patient or the equipment.
Alarm Indicators
When an alarm occurs, the monitor indicates it through visual or audible alarm indications. For more information, see the following table.

NOTE
•
When multiple alarms of different priority levels occur simultaneously, the monitor selects the highest priority alarm to light the alarm lamp and issue the alarm tone.
•
When multiple alarms of different priority levels occur simultaneously and should be displayed in the same area, the monitor only displays the messages from the highest priority alarm.
•
When multiple alarms of the same priority levels occur simultaneously alarm messages are displayed cyclically.
•
Some physiological alarms, such as Asystole, are exclusive. They have identical alarm tones and alarm lights with normal high level physiological alarms, but their alarm messages are displayed exclusively. That is, when an exclusive physiological alarm and a normal high level physiological alarm are triggered simultaneously, only exclusive physiological alarm message will be displayed.

ECG Safety Information
WARNING
•
This equipment is not intended for direct cardiac application.
•
Ensure that the conductive parts of ECG electrodes and associated connectors, including the neutral electrode, do not come into contact with any other conductive parts including earth.
•
Always use defibrillation-proof ECG cables during defibrillation.
•
Do not touch the patient, or metal devices connected to the patient, during defibrillation.
•
To minimize the hazard of burns during high-frequency surgical procedures, ensure that the monitor’s cables and transducers never come into contact with the electrosurgery unit (ESU).
•
To minimize the hazard of burns during use of high-frequency surgical unit (ESU), the ECG electrodes should not be located between the surgical site and the ESU return electrode.
CAUTION
•
Only use parts and accessories specified in this manual. Follow the instructions for use and adhere to all warnings and cautions.
•
Periodically inspect the electrode application sites to ensure skin integrity. If the skin quality changes, replace the electrodes or change the application site.
BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 7 - 1

Preparing for ECG Monitoring
Preparing the Patient Skin
Proper skin preparation is necessary to ensure good signal quality at the electrode sites, as the skin is a poor conductor of electricity. To properly prepare the skin, choose flat areas and then follow this procedure:
1.
Shave hair from skin at chosen electrode sites.
2.
Gently rub skin surface at sites to remove dead skin cells.
3.
Thoroughly cleanse the site with a mild soap and water solution. We do not recommend using ether or pure alcohol, because this dries the skin and increases the resistance.
4.
Dry the skin completely before applying electrodes.
Applying Electrodes and Connecting the Patient
To connect ECG cables, follow this procedure:
1.
Check that electrode packages are intact and the electrodes are not past the expiry date. Ensure the electrode gel is moist. If you are using snap electrodes, attach the snaps to the electrodes before placing electrodes on the patient.
7 - 2 BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual
2.
Place the electrodes on the prepared sites. Ensure that all electrodes have good skin contact.
3.
Connect the leadwires to the patient cable if not already connected.
4.
Plug the patient cable into the ECG connector.
CAUTION
•
Never mix patient electrode types or brands. This may lead to impedance mismatches issues.
NOTE
•
When applying the electrodes, avoid bony area, obvious layers of fat, and major muscles. Muscle movement can result in electrical interference. Applying electrodes on major muscles, for example on muscles of the thorax, may lead to erroneous arrhythmia alarms due to excessive muscle movement.

A pacemaker patient usually requires a different electrode patch placement configuration than a nonpacemaker patient.
Do not place an ECG electrode directly over the pacemaker generator. Place the electrode patches 2 to 3 inches away from the pacemaker generator area. For example, if the pacemaker generator is located in the left subclavian area, relocate the Left Arm electrode closer in towards the center of the chest.
7.4.4.6
Lead Placement for Surgical Patients
The surgical site should be taken into consideration when placing electrodes on a surgical patient. For example, for open-chest surgery, the chest electrodes can be placed on the lateral chest or back. To reduce artifacts and interference from electrosurgical units, you can place the limb electrodes close to the shoulders and lower abdomen and the chest electrodes on the left side of the mid-chest. Do not place the electrodes on the upper arm. Otherwise, the ECG waveform will be very small.
WARNING
•
To reduce the hazard of burns during use of electrosurgical units (ESU), the ECG electrodes should not be located between the surgical site and the ESU return electrode.
•
Never entangle the ESU cable and the ECG cable together.
BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 7 - 5
•
When using ESU, never place ECG electrodes near the grounding plate of the ESU, as this can cause a lot of interference on the ECG signal.
•
When using ESU, ensure proper contact of the ESU return electrode to the patient to avoid burns at monitor measurement sites. Also ensure that the ESU return electrode is near the operating area.

If you did not set the paced status, the monitor issues a prompt tone when pace pulse is detected. At the same time, the paced symbol flashes and the message Please check if the patient has a pacemaker?
appears in the ECG waveform area. Check and set the patient’s paced status.
WARNING
•
For paced patients, you must set Paced to Yes. If it is incorrectly set to No, the monitor could mistake a pace pulse for a QRS complex and fail to alarm when the ECG signal is too weak. On ventricular paced patients, episodes of ventricular tachycardia may not always be detected. Do not rely entirely upon the system’s automated arrhythmia detection algorithm.
•
False low heart rate or false asystole alarms may result with certain pacemakers because of pacemaker artifacts, such as electrical overshoot of the pacemaker overlapping the true QRS complexes.
•
Do not rely entirely on rate meter alarms when monitoring patients with pacemakers. Always keep these patients under close surveillance.
•
The auto pacer recognition function is not applicable to pediatric patients and neonatal patients.

Monitoring Arrhythmia
Arrhythmia monitoring is intended for adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients.
Arrhythmia Safety Information
WARNING
•
Heart rate reading may be affected by cardiac arrhythmias. Do not rely entirely on heart rate alarms when monitoring patients with arrhythmias. Always keep these patients under close surveillance.
•
The arrhythmia analysis program may incorrectly identify the presence or absence of an arrhythmia.
Therefore, a physician must analyze the arrhythmia information with other clinical findings.
•
Pacer not Capture and Pacer not Pacing detection funcitons are not intended for neonatal patients.
CAUTION
Atrial fibrillation (A-Fib) detection function is not intended for pediatric and neonatal patients.
•
Since the arrhythmia detection algorithm sensitivity and specificity are less than 100%, it is possible for false arrhythmias to be detected and true arrhythmia events to not be detected. The possibility increases when the signal is noisy.
•
The ECG size and minimum QRS detection threshold settings affect arrhythmia detection and heart rate calculation sensitivity.
•
If QRS amplitude is low, the monitor might be unable to calculate heart rate and thus create false asystole calls. During the learning phase of the algorithm, arrhythmia detection may not be available. It is recommended to closely monitor patient condition during, and for several minutes after, the learning phase to allow the algorithm to reach optimal detection performance.

Adjusting ST Measurement Points
7.7.9.1
About ST Point, ISO Point, and J Point
The ST deviation value for each beat is the potential difference between the isoelectric (ISO) point and the ST point. The ISO point provides the baseline. The ST point is located between the J point and the start of the Twave. The J point is the end of the QRS complex. As the ST point is at a fixed distance away from the J point (40,
60, 80 etc msec), manually adjusting the J point helps you correctly position the ST point.

7.7.9.2
Setting ST Point, ISO Point, and J Point
CAUTION
•
If Auto Adjust is Off, or if the patient's heart rate or ECG morphology changes significantly, the ISO and ST points need to be occasionally adjusted because this may affect the QT interval and thus the location of the ST point. False ST segment depression or elevation may occur if the isoelectric point or the ST point is incorrectly set.
•
Always ensure that the locations of ST points are appropriate for the patient.
To set the ST point, ISO point, and J point, follow this procedure:
1.
Select the ECG numeric area or waveform area to enter the ECG dialog.
2.
Select the ST tab → select the Adjust tab.
3.
Set ST Point .
The setting for Auto Adjust defines the method of adjusting the ISO and J point locations. Auto Adjust is enabled by default. In this case, the locations of the ISO point and J point are automatically determined by the
BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 7 - 19

algorithm. When Auto Adjust is disabled, you need to manually adjust the position of the ISO point and J point using the arrows at the right sides of ISO and J .
■
■
■
The ISO point (isoelectric) location shown is relative to the R-wave peak. Position the ISO point in the middle of the flattest part of the waveform (between the P and Q waves).
The J point location is indicated relative to the R-wave peak. Position the J point at the end of the QRS complex and the beginning of the ST segment.
The ST point is positioned a fixed distance from the J point. Position the ST point relative to the J point at
J+60/80ms , J+40ms , J+60ms or J+80ms . When J+60/80ms is selected, the ST point will be positioned 80 ms (heart rate 120 bpm or less) or 60 ms (heart rate more than 120 bpm) from the J point.
QT/QTc Interval Monitoring
The QT interval is the time between the beginning of the Q-wave and the end of the T-wave. It represents the total duration of the depolarization (QRS duration) and repolarization (ST-T) phases of the ventricles. QT interval monitoring can assist in the detection of long QT syndrome.
The QT interval has an inverse relationship to heart rate. Faster heart rates shorten QT interval and slower heart rates prolong QT interval. Therefore, several formulas are commonly used to correct the QT interval for heart rate. The heart rate corrected QT interval is abbreviated as QTc.
QT/QTc interval monitoring is intended for adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients.
QT/QTc Monitoring Limitations
Some conditions may make it difficult to achieve reliable QT/QTc monitoring, for example:
■
■
■
■
■
■
■
■
R-wave amplitudes are too low
The presence of frequent ventricular ectopic beats
RR intervals are unstable
P-waves tending to encroach on the end of the previous T-wave at high heart rates
The T-wave is very flat or T-wave are not well defined
The end of the T-wave is difficult to delineate because of the presence of U-waves
QTc measurements are not stable
In the presence of noise, asystole, ventricular fibrillation, atrial fibrillation, or ECG lead off
For reliable QT/QTc monitoring, choose lead with good T-wave amplitude and no visible flutter activity, and without a predominant U-wave or P-wave.
Some conditions such as left or right bundle branch block or ventricular hypertrophy can lead to a widened QRS complex. If a long QTc is observed you should verify it to ensure that it is not caused by QRS widening.
Because normal beats followed by ventricular beats are not included in the analysis, no QT measurement will be generated in the presence of a bigeminy rhythm.
If the heart rate is extremely high (over 150 bpm for adults and over 180 bpm for pediatrics and neonates), QT will not be measured. When the heart rate changes, it can take several minutes for the QT interval to stabilize. For reliable QTc calculation it is important to avoid measurements when the heart rate is changing.
Enabling QT/QTc Monitoring
The QT monitoring function is disabled by default. Before you start QT monitoring, enable the QT function. To do so, follow this procedure:
1.
Select the ECG numeric area or waveform area to enter the ECG dialog.

Saving the Current QTc as Baseline
In order to quantify changes in the QTc value, you can set a QTc baseline. If no baseline has been set for this patient within the first five minutes after getting valid QT values, the monitor will automatically set a baseline. To set the current values as baseline, follow this procedure:
1.
From the QT View , select Set Baseline .

7.9.1
ECG Relearning
Changes in ECG beat morphology could result in incorrect arrhythmia alarms and/or inaccurate heart rate. ECG relearning allows the monitor to learn the new dominant beat morphology and thus reduce false arrhythmia alarms and inaccurate HR values. Once learning is complete, the dominant QRS complex is stored as a reference template. The reference template is used as the normal morphology of that patient and it is compared with incoming beats to identify possible arrhythmias.
Auto ECG Relearning
Auto arrhythmia relearning happens in the following situation:
■ The ECG lead type or lead label is changed.
7 - 22 BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual
7.9.2
■
■
ECG leads are off and are not reconnected within 60 seconds.
The patient‘s paced status is changed.
Initiating an ECG Relearning Manually
If you suspect that false arrhythmia alarms are presented, you may need to manually initiate an ECG relearn. To do so, follow this procedure:
1.
Select the ECG numeric area or waveform area to enter the ECG dialog.
2.
Select Relearn .
CAUTION
•
Initiate ECG relearning only during periods of predominantly normal rhythm and when the ECG signal is relatively noise-free. If ECG learning takes place during arrhythmias, the ectopic beats may be incorrectly learned as normal QRS complexes. This may result in missed detection of subsequent arrhythmia events.
7.10
Defibrillation Synchronization Pulse Output
The 12-lead N1 monitor provides an analog out connector to output synchronization pulses for defibrillators. If a defibrillator is connected, it receives a synchronization pulse (100 ms, +5 V) through the multifunction connector each time an R-wave is detected. The 3/5/6 lead N1 monitor does not offer this output.
WARNING
•
According to IEC 60601-2-4: 2010, the peak of the synchronized defibrillator discharge should be delivered within 60 ms of the peak of the R wave. The signal at the ECG output (sync pulse) on the monitor is delayed by maximum of 30 ms. the biomedical engineer should verify that the ECG/
Defibrillator combination does not exceed recommended maximum delay of 60 ms.
•
Before defibrillation, ensure that both defibrillator and monitor have passed the system test and can be safely used together.

Initiating Resting 12-Lead ECG Analysis
Before initiating 12-lead ECG analysis, check that all electrodes are correctly connected to the lead wires and the
ECG trunk cable is properly connected. Check that patient information is correct. Keep the patient still.
To initiate 12-Lead ECG analysis, select Analyze from the bottom left of the 12-Lead screen.
Changing 12-Lead ECG Analysis Settings
On the ECG 12-Lead screen, you can set the high frequency filter, baseline drift removal (BDR) filter, and the waveform layout.
Setting the High Frequency Filter
The high frequency filter attenuates muscle artifact by restricting the included frequencies. The setting of the high frequency filter is 35 Hz by default. To change the setting, follow this procedure:
1.
On the ECG 12-Lead screen, select the ECG numeric area or waveform area to enter the ECG dialog.
2.
Select the Setup tab.
3.
Set High-Freq Cut-off .
The high frequency filter is a low-pass filter. That is to say, signal frequencies higher than the set frequency are filtered out. For example, if you set High-freq Cutoff to 35 Hz , then signal below 35 Hz is kept in the signal and signal exceeding 35 Hz is attenuated.
Setting the Baseline Drift Removal Filter
The baseline drift removal (BDR) filter suppresses most baseline drift interference and also is able to preserve the fidelity of the ST-segment level. BDR is switched on by default. To set the BDR, follow this procedure:
1.

Monitoring Impedance Respiration (Resp)
9.1
9.2
Resp Introduction
Impedance respiration is measured across the thorax. When the patient is breathing or ventilated, the volume of air changes in the lungs, resulting in impedance changes between the electrodes. Impedance respiration rate
(RR) is calculated from the signal representing these impedance changes, and a respiration waveform is displayed on the patient monitor screen.
Impedance respiration monitoring is intended for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients.
Respiration may also be measured using a CO
2
module. Refer to 14 Monitoring Carbon Dioxide (CO
for respiration information specific to the CO
2
module.
Impedance Resp Safety Information
WARNING
•
When monitoring the patient’s impedance respiration, do not use ESU-proof ECG cables. The monitor cannot measure impedance respiration with ESU-proof ECG cables.
•
If you do not set the detection level for the respiration correctly in manual detection mode, it may not be possible for the monitor to detect zero respiration rate. If you set the detection level too low, the monitor is more likely to detect cardiac activity, and to falsely interpret cardiac activity as respiratory activity in case of zero respiration rate.
•
The respiration measurement does not recognize the cause of zero respiration rates. It only indicates an alarm if a pre-adjusted time has elapsed without a breath being detected since the last detected breath. Therefore, it cannot be used for diagnostic purpose.
•
If operating under conditions according to the EMC Standard IEC 60601-1-2 (Radiated Immunity 3V/ m), field strengths above 3V/m may cause erroneous measurements at various frequencies.
Therefore, it is recommended to avoid the use of electrically radiating equipment in close proximity to the impedance respiration measurement unit.
•
The current used to measure impedance respiration may cause rate changes in Minute Ventilation
Rate Responsive Pacemakers. If you suspect the patient monitor is affecting the pacemaker rate then replace the ECG cable with an ECG cable that contains ESU filters.
CAUTION
•
Only use parts and accessories specified in this manual.
•
Impedance respiration monitoring is not for use on patients while they are active, as this can cause false alarms.

Preparing for Impedance Resp Monitoring
Preparing the Patient
Follow this procedure to prepare the patient:
1.
Shave hair from skin at chosen sites.
2.
Gently rub skin surface at sites to remove dead skin cells.
3.
Thoroughly cleanse the site with a mild soap and water solution.
4.
Dry the skin completely before applying the electrodes.
CAUTION
•
Proper skin preparation is necessary for good signal quality at the electrode site, as the skin is a poor conductor of electricity.
9 - 2 BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual
9.4.2
Placing the Electrodes
Impedance respiration is acquired using standard ECG electrodes and cables. Either lead I (RA-LA) or lead II (RA-
LL) can be used.
For more information, see 7.4.4 ECG Electrode Placements .
(1) (2)
(1) Lead I (2) Lead II
CAUTION
•
Correct electrode placement can help to reduce interference from cardiac related impedance changes: avoid including the liver area and the ventricles of the heart between the respiratory electrodes. This is particularly important for neonates.
•
Some patients with restricted movements breathe mainly abdominally. In these cases, you may need to place the left leg electrode on the left abdomen at the point of maximum abdominal expansion to optimize the respiratory waveform.
•
Some patients (especially neonates) expand their chests laterally, causing a negative intrathoracic pressure. In these cases, it is better to place the two respiration electrodes in the right midaxillary and the left lateral chest areas at the patient’s maximum point of the breathing movement to optimize the impedance respiration waveform.
•
To optimize the impedance respiration waveform, place the RA and LA electrodes horizontally when monitoring respiration with ECG Lead I; place the RA and LL electrodes diagonally when monitoring respiration with ECG Lead II.
•
Periodically inspect electrode application sites to ensure skin integrity. If the skin quality changes, replace the electrodes or change the application site.
NOTE
•
Store the electrodes at room temperature. Open the electrode package immediately prior to use.
•
Check that the electrode packages are intact and that the electrodes are not past the expiration date. Ensure the electrode gel is moist.

To set the auto detection switch, follow this procedure:
1.
Select the Resp numeric area or waveform area to enter the Resp dialog.
2.
Select the Setup tab.

◆ If Auto Threshold Detection is switched on, the monitor automatically adjusts the Resp waveform detection level, or threshold.
◆ If Auto Threshold Detection is switched off, you have to manually adjust the Resp waveform threshold. For more information, see
9.5.7 Adjusting the Resp Waveform Detection Threshold
.
In the auto threshold detection mode, if you are monitoring Resp and the ECG parameter is switched off, the monitor cannot compare the heart rate and Resp rates to detect cardiovascular artifact. The respiration detection level is automatically set higher to prevent the detection of cardiovascular artifact as respiration.
In the manual detection mode (where auto threshold detection is off ), cardiovascular artifact can, in certain situations, trigger the respiration rate counter. This may lead to a false indication of a high respiration or an undetected zero respiration rate condition. If you suspect that cardiovascular artifact is being registered as respiratory activity, raise the detection level above the zone of cardiovascular artifact. If the Resp wave is so small that raising the detection level is not possible, you may need to optimize the electrode placement.
Adjusting the Resp Waveform Detection Threshold
■
■
■
Use the manual detection mode (where auto threshold detection is off ) in the following situations:
The respiration rate and the heart rate are close.
Patients have intermittent mandatory ventilation.
Respiration is weak. Try repositioning the electrodes to improve the signal.
To set the Resp waveform threshold to the desired level, follow this procedure:
1.
Select the Resp numeric area or waveform area to enter the Resp dialog.
2.
Select the Threshold tab.
3.
Select the up and down arrows below Upper Line and Lower Line to define the Resp waveform threshold.
Once set, the detection level will not adapt automatically to different respiration depths. It is important to remember that if the depth of breathing changes, you may need to change the detection level.

Monitoring Pulse Oxygen Saturation (SpO
2
)
10.1
SpO
2
Introduction
Pulse Oxygen Saturation (SpO
2
) monitoring is a non-invasive technique used to measure the amount of oxygenated hemoglobin and pulse rate by measuring the absorption of selected wavelengths of light. The light generated in the emitter side of the probe is partly absorbed when it passes through the monitored tissue. The amount of transmitted light is detected in the detector side of the probe. When the pulsative part of the light signal is examined, the amount of light absorbed by the hemoglobin is measured and the pulse oxygen saturation can be calculated. This device is calibrated to display functional oxygen saturation.
SpO
2
monitoring is intended for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients.
The monitor can be configured with Masimo SpO
2 or Nellcor SpO
2
:

: the connector is purple and the logo of Masimo SET is on the monitor.
Nellcor SpO
2
: the connector is grey and the logo of Nellcor is on the monitor.
NOTE
•
The SpO
2
extension cable used must be compatible with the SpO
2 sensor connectors used. For example, only the Masimo SpO
2
extension cable can be connected to the Masimo SpO
2
sensor connectors.
•
Measurement accuracy verification: The SpO
2
accuracy has been verified in human experiments by comparing with arterial blood sample reference measured with a CO-oximeter. Pulse oximeter measurement are statistically distributed and about two-thirds of the measurements are expected to come within the specified accuracy range compared to CO-oximeter measurements.

Safety Information
WARNING
•
When a trend toward patient deoxygenation is indicated, analyze the blood samples with a laboratory co-oximeter to completely understand the patient’s condition.
•
Do not use SpO
2
sensors during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Induced current could potentially causes burns. The sensor may affect the MRI image, and the MRI unit may affect the accuracy of the oximetry measurements.
•
Prolonged continuous monitoring may increase the risk of undesirable changes in skin characteristics, such as irritation, reddening, blistering or burns. Inspect the sensor site every two hours and move the sensor if the skin quality changes. Change the application site every four hours.
For neonates, or patients with poor peripheral blood circulation or sensitive skin, inspect the sensor site more frequently.
•
If the sensor is too tight because the application site is too large or becomes too large due to edema, excessive pressure for prolonged periods may result in venous congestion distal from the application site, leading to interstitial edema and tissue ischemia.
•
When patients are undergoing photodynamic therapy they may be sensitive to light sources. Pulse oximetry may be used only under careful clinical supervision for short time periods to minimize interference with photodynamic therapy.
•
Setting alarm limits to extreme values may cause the alarm system to become ineffective. For example, high oxygen levels may predispose a premature infant to retrolental fibroplasia. If this is a consideration, do not set the high alarm limit to 100%, which is equivalent to switching off the alarm.
•
SpO
2
is empirically calibrated in healthy adult volunteers with normal levels of carboxyhemoglobin
(COHb) and methemoglobin (MetHb).
•
To protect from electric shock, always remove the sensor before bathing the patient.
•
The pulse oximetry function of the bedside monitor should not be used for apnea monitoring.
•
The pulse oximetry function of the bedside monitor should not be used for arrhythmia analysis.
CAUTION
•
Change the application site or replace the sensor and/or patient cable when a persistent SpO2 Low
Signal Quality message is displayed on the equipment. These messages may indicate that patient monitoring time is exhausted on the patient cable or sensor.
•
Replace the cable or sensor when a “SpO2 Sensor Off”, “SpO2 No Sensor”, or “SpO2 Low Signal
Quality” message is consistently displayed while monitoring consecutive patients after completing troubleshooting steps listed in this manual.
•
Variation in measurements may be profound and may be affected by sampling technique as well as the patient's physiological conditions. Any results exhibiting inconsistency with the patient’s clinical status should be repeated and/or supplemented with additional test data. Blood samples should be analyzed by laboratory instruments prior to clinical decision making to completely understand the patient’s condition.
•
Use only SpO
2
sensors specified in this manual. Follow the SpO
2
sensor’s instructions for use and adhere to all warnings and cautions.
•
Do not place the patient monitor where the controls can be changed by the patient.
•
If using pulse oximetry during full body irradiation, keep the sensor out of the radiation field. If the sensor is exposed to the radiation, the reading might be inaccurate or the device might read zero for the duration of the active irradiation period.
NOTE
•
Additional information specific to the Masimo sensors compatible with the equipment, including information about parameter/measurement performance during motion and low perfusion, may be found in the sensor's directions for use (DFU).

Alarm Management
With traditional alarm management, high and low alarm limits are set for monitoring oxygen saturation. During monitoring, once an alarm limit is violated, an audible alarm immediately sounds. When the patient SpO
2 fluctuates near an alarm limit, the alarm sounds each time the limit is violated. Such frequent alarms can be distracting. Nellcor’s SatSeconds alarm management technique is used to reduce these nuisance alarms.
The SatSeconds feature is available with the Nellcor SpO
2
to decrease the likelihood of false alarms caused by motion artifacts. With SatSeconds alarm management, high and low alarm limits are set in the same way as those with traditional alarm management. A SatSeconds limit is also set. The SatSeconds limit controls the amount of time that SpO
2
saturation may be outside the set limits before an alarm sounds.
The method of calculation is as follows: the percentage points of the SpO
2
saturation falling outside the alarm limit is multiplied by the number of seconds remaining outside the limit. This can be stated as the equation:
SatSeconds = Points × Seconds
Only when the SatSeconds limit is reached, the monitor gives a SatSeconds alarm. For example, the figure below demonstrates the alarm response time with a SatSeconds limit set at 50 and a low SpO
2
limit set at 90%. In this example, the patient SpO
2
drops to 88% (2 points) and remains there for 2 seconds. Then it drops to 86% (4 points) for 3 seconds, and then to 84% (6 points) for 6 seconds. The resulting SatSeconds are:

may fluctuate above and below an alarm limit, re-entering the non-alarm range several times. During such fluctuation, the monitor integrates the number of SpO
2
points, both positive and negative, until either the

Sensitivity (for Masimo SpO
2
)
For Masimo SpO
2
, selects the Sensitivity as per signal quality and patient motion.
Normal sensitivity is the recommended for patients who are experiencing some compromise in blood flow or perfusion. It is advisable for care areas where patients are observed frequently, such as the intensive care unit
(ICU).
Adaptive Probe Off Detection (APOD) sensitivity is the recommended sensitivity mode where there is a high probability of the sensor becoming detached. It is also the suggested mode for care areas where patients are not visually monitored continuously. This mode delivers enhanced protection against erroneous pulse rate and arterial oxygen saturation readings when a sensor becomes inadvertently detached from a patient due to excessive movement.
Maximum sensitivity is recommended for use on patients with weak signals (e.g. high ambient noise and/or patients with very low perfusion) and for use during procedures or when clinician and patient contact is continuous such as in higher acuity settings.
To set SpO
2
sensitivity, follow this procedure:
1.
Select the SpO

numeric area or waveform area to enter the SpO2 dialog.
2.
Select the Setup tab.
3.
Set Sensitivity to Maximum, Normal, or APOD .
CAUTION
•
When using the Maximum Sensitivity setting, performance of "Sensor Off" detection may be compromised. If the equipment and the sensor becomes detached from the patient, the potential for false readings may occur due to environmental noise such as light, and vibration.

Monitoring Temperature (Temp)
11.1
Temperature Introduction
The monitor can continuously monitor the patient’s skin temperature and core temperature. Thermally sensitive resistors (thermistors) are used, and are based on the principle that electrical resistance of the thermistor changes as temperature changes. The resistance change of the thermistors is used to calculate the temperature.
Up to two temperature sites can be monitored simultaneously and the difference between two measured sites is calculated.
Temperature monitoring is intended for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients.

Monitoring Noninvasive Blood Pressure (NIBP)
12.1
NIBP Introduction
The monitor uses the oscillometric method for measuring Non-Invasive Blood Pressure (NIBP). NIBP measurement is based on the principle that pulsatile blood flow through an artery creates oscillations of the arterial wall. The oscillometric device uses a blood pressure cuff to sense these oscillations that appear as tiny pulsations in cuff pressure. The oscillometric devices measure the amplitude of pressure changes in the occluding cuff as the cuff deflates from above systolic pressure. The amplitude suddenly increases as the pulse breaks through the occlusion in the artery. As the cuff pressure decreases further, the pulsations increase in amplitude, reach a maximum (which approximates to the mean pressure), and then diminish. The oscillometric method measures the mean pressure and determines the systolic and diastolic pressures.
NIBP monitoring is intended for adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients.
NOTE
•
Blood pressure measurements determined with this device are equivalent to those obtained by a trained observer using the cuff/stethoscope auscultatory method or an intra-arterial blood pressure measurement device, within the limits prescribed by the American National Standard: manual, electronic, or automated sphygmomanometers.
•
NIBP measurement can be performed during electro-surgery and discharge of a defibrillator.
12.2
NIBP Safety Information
WARNING
•
Be sure to select the correct patient category setting for your patient before NIBP measurement. Do not apply the higher adult settings for pediatric or neonatal patients. Otherwise, it may present a safety hazard.
•
Do not measure NIBP on patients with sickle-cell disease or on the limb where skin damage has occurred or is expected.
•
Use clinical judgment to determine whether to perform frequent unattended blood pressure measurements on patients with severe blood clotting disorders because of the risk of hematoma in the limb fitted with the cuff.
•
Do not use the NIBP cuff on a limb with an intravenous infusion or arterial catheter in place. This could cause tissue damage around the catheter when the infusion is slowed or blocked during cuff inflation.
•
Do not apply cuff on the arm on the side of a mastectomy or lymph node clearance.
•
Continuous cuff pressure due to connection tubing kinking may cause blood flow interference and result in harmful injury to the patient.
•
NIBP reading can be affected by the measurement site, the position of the patient, exercise, or the patient's physiologic condition. If you doubt the NIBP measurements, determine the patient’s vital signs by alternative means, and then verify that the monitor is working correctly.
•
Devices that exert pressure on tissue have been associated with purpura, ischemia, and neuropathy.
Inspect the application site regularly to ensure skin quality and inspect the extremity of the cuffed limb for normal color, warmth and sensitivity. If the skin quality changes, or if the extremity circulation is being affected, move the cuff to another site or stop the blood pressure measurements immediately. Check more frequently when making automatic or STAT measurements. Auto NIBP measurements with one and two minute intervals are not recommended for extended periods of time.
•
Do not modify or replace connectors of the NIBP air hose except with mindray-approved connectors.
Use neonatal and infant cuffs with CM1901 hoses only. Use pediatric/adult cuffs with CM1903 hoses only.
BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 12 - 1
•
Never connect intra-arterial or intra-venous lines, or any other incompatible connectors to the NIBP hose. This can cause serious injury or death.
•
NIBP diagnostic significance must be decided by the hospital’s clinician staff.
CAUTION
•
Measuring NIBP on patients connected to an Intra Aortic Balloon Pump (IABP) machine may result in the NIBP measurement, including PR, to be inaccurate or fail.
•
Only use parts and accessories specified in this manual. Follow the instructions for use and adhere to all warnings and cautions.
•
Using IABP may cause NIBP, including PR, measurements inaccurate or failed.
•
Accuracy of NIBP measurement depends on using a cuff of proper size. It is essential to measure limb circumference and choose a cuff with proper size.
12.3
NIBP Measurement Limitations
■
■
■
■
■
■
■
Measurements are impossible with heart rate extremes of less than 30 bpm or greater than 300 bpm, or if the patient is on a heart-lung machine. The measurement may be inaccurate or impossible in the following situations:
Regular arterial pressure pulses are hard to detect
Excessive and continuous patient movement such as shivering or convulsions
Cardiac arrhythmias
Rapid blood pressure changes
Severe shock or hypothermia that reduces blood flow to the peripheries
On an edematous extremity
Obesity, where a thick layer of fat surrounding a limb dampens the oscillations coming from the artery
NOTE
•
The effectiveness of this sphygmomanometer has not been established in pregnant women, including pre-eclamptic patients.
12.4
Measurement Modes
The monitor provides the following NIBP measurement modes:
■
■
■
■
Manual: measurement on demand.
Auto: repeated measurements at set interval.
STAT: continual rapid series of measurements over a five-minute period.
Sequence: continually automatic measurement at set durations and intervals.

Preparing for NIBP Measurements
12.6.1
Preparing the Patient for NIBP Measurements
■
■
■
■
In normal use, perform NIBP measurement on a patient who is in the following position:
Comfortably seated
Legs uncrossed
Feet flat on the floor
Back, arm and feet supported
NOTE
•
It is recommended that the patient remains calm and relaxes as much as possible before performing the measurement and that the patient does not talk during the measurement.
BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 12 - 3
•
Other factors that have been shown to result in an overestimation of blood pressure are labored breathing, full bladder, pain etc.
12.6.2
Placing the NIBP Cuff
To place the NIBP cuff, follow this procedure:
1.
Verify that the patient category setting is correct.
2.
Connect the air tubing to the NIBP connector.
3.
Select an appropriately sized cuff for the patient, and then wrap it around the limb directly over the patient’s skin as follows: a Determine the patient
’ s limb circumference.
b Select an appropriate cuff by referring to the limb circumference marked on the cuff. The width of the cuff should be 40% (50% for neonates) of the limb circumference, or 2/3 of the length of the upper arm or the thigh. The inflatable part of the cuff should be long enough to encircle to overlap at least
50% to 80% of the limb. c Apply the cuff to the patient ’ s upper arm or leg and make sure the Φ marking on the cuff matches the artery location. The cuff should fit snugly, but with enough room for two fingers to be placed between the cuff and the patient ’ s arm (on adults), and loosely on neonates with little or no air present within the cuff. Otherwise it may cause discoloration and ischemia of the extremities. Make sure that the cuff index line falls within the range markings on the cuff. If it does not, use a cuff that fits better.
d Middle of the cuff should be at the level of the right atrium of the heart. If it is not, use the measurement correction formula to correct the measurement. For more information, see
12.8.7 Setting the NIBP Display Format
.
4.
Connect the cuff to the air tubing. Avoid compression or restriction of pressure tubes. Air must pass unrestricted through the tubing.
CAUTION
•
Do not touch or apply external pressure against the cuff and air tubing during NIBP measurement.
This may cause inaccurate blood pressure values.
•
Use care when placing the cuff on an extremity used for monitoring other patient parameters.

•
The clinical value of the derived PPV information must be determined by a physician. According to recent scientific literature, the clinical relevance of PPV information is restricted to sedated patients receiving controlled mechanical ventilation and mainly free from cardiac arrhythmia.
•
PPV calculation may lead to inaccurate values in the following situations:
◆ at respiration rates below 8 rpm
◆ during ventilation with tidal volumes lower than 8 ml/kg
◆ for patients with acute right ventricular dysfunction (cor pulmonale).
•
The PPV measurement has been validated only for adult patients.
BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 13 - 7
13.7
PAWP (only available when the N1 is used with the independent external display)
Pulmonary Artery Wedge Pressure (PAWP) values, used to assess cardiac function, are affected by fluid status, myocardial contractility, and valve and pulmonary circulation integrity.
Obtain the measurement by introducing a balloon-tipped pulmonary artery flotation catheter into the pulmonary artery. When the catheter is in one of the smaller pulmonary arteries, the inflated balloon occludes the artery allowing the monitor to record changes in the intrathoracic pressures that occur throughout the respiration cycle.
The pulmonary wedge pressure is the left ventricular end diastolic pressure when the airway pressure and valve function are normal. The most accurate PAWP values are obtained at the end of the respiration cycle when the intrathoracic pressure is fairly constant and the artifact caused by respiration is minimal.
WARNING
•
PAWP monitoring is not intended for neonatal patients.

Because the pulmonary artery could be accidentally ruptured, and the PAWP value derived will not reflect the patient’s hemodynamic state, but will merely reflect the pressure in the catheter or balloon.
•
If the flotation/thermodilution catheter drifts into the wedge position without inflation of the balloon, the PA waveform assumes a wedged appearance. Take appropriate action, in accordance with standard procedures, to correct the situation.

Monitoring Carbon Dioxide (CO
2
)
14.1
CO
2
Introduction
CO
2
monitoring is a continuous, non-invasive technique for determining the concentration of CO
2
in the patient’s airway by measuring the absorption of infrared (IR) light of specific wavelengths. CO
2
has its own absorption characteristic and the amount of light passing the gas probe depends on the concentration of the measured CO
2
. When a specific band of IR light passes through respiratory gas samples, some of IR light will be absorbed by the CO
2
molecules. The amount of IR light transmitted after it has been passed through the respiratory gas sample is measured with a photodetector. From the amount of IR light measured, the concentration of CO
2
is calculated.
CO
2
measurement is used to monitor the patient’s respiratory status. The sidestream/Microstream CO
2 measurement takes a sample of the respiratory gas with a constant sample flow from the patient's airway and analyzes it with a remote CO
2
sensor built into the Sidestream or Microstream CO
2
module.
The sidestream and microstream CO
2
measurement can be used, with specified accessories, with intubated and non-intubated adult, pediatric, and neonatal patients. With intubated patients, a sample of the respiratory gas is drawn from the patient's breathing circuit through an airway adapter and a gas sampling line. With nonintubated patients, the gas sample is drawn through a nasal cannula.
Both sidestream and microstream CO
2
modules have the function of automatic barometric pressure compensation (the system automatically measures the barometric pressure to which the patient monitor is exposed).
CO
2
monitoring is intended for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients.
WARNING
•
The N1 monitor does not support CO
2
measurements when used for transporting patients by rotary or fixed-wing ambulance.
•
It is not recommended to measure O
2
when transporting a patient with the N1 monitor. Shaking the
CO
2
module during O
2
measurement may lead to a distorted O
2
waveform or inaccurate O
2 measurement.
14.2
Identifying CO
2
Modules
To measure CO
2
, use either the internal CO
2
module or the external CO
2
module. The external CO
2
module is connected to the N1 through the Modular Rack. For the connection of the N1 and the external CO
2
module, see
section 2.8.1 Installing the N1 or External Parameter Module into the Modular Rack .
In sequence from left to right, the following are sidestream CO

during nebulization may lead to inaccurate CO
2
readings.
•
EtCO
2
values measured from the CO
2
module may differ from those from the blood gas analysis.
•
Avoid mechanical shock to the sidestream CO

Early Warning Score (EWS)
The Early Warning Scores (EWS) can help you recognize the early sign of deterioration in patients based on vital signs and clinical observations. It is based on the “Royal College of Physicians (2015) National Early Warning
Score (NEWS2): Standardizing the assessment of acute illness severity in the NHS, Report of a Working Party. RCP,
London. Depending on the score calculated, appropriate recommendations are displayed.
The monitor supports the following scores:
■
■
■
■
MEWS (Modified Early Warning Score)
NEWS (National Early Warning Score)
NEWS2 (National Early Warning Score 2)
Custom Score
A subscore is given for each parameter based on the measured or entered value. When all the required parameters are entered or measured, the subscores are added together to calculate the total early warning score. Each subscore has a color coding to indicate associated level of risk. When the total score is outside of the thresholds, actions are recommended. MEWS, NEWS and NEWS2 can give total scores.
Custom Score is based on user-defined parameters.
MEWS, NEWS and NEWS2 are intended for adult patients only. The patient category applied to the Custom Score is defined by the Mindray Clinical Score Configuration Tool. For more information, see Mindray Clinical Scoring
Config Tool Instruction for Use (P/N: 046-012986-00).
WARNING

Battery
22.1
Battery Introduction
This monitor is designed to run on rechargeable Lithium-ion battery power when the external power is not available. The monitor can switch between battery power and the external power without interrupting patient monitoring. If both the external power and the battery power are available, the monitor uses the external power in preference to the battery power.
This monitor is designed to operate on battery power when the mains power is not available. The monitor uses mains power as primary power source. In case of mains power failure, the monitor automatically runs on the battery power.
22.2
Battery Safety Information
WARNING

If the battery is almost depleted, the monitor presents the Critically Low Battery alarm. In this case, immediately connect the external power to the monitor and charge the battery. Otherwise, the monitor will automatically shut down soon.
22 - 2 BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual
If the battery has been used for a prolonged period of time, the battery will be aged and its runtime may be significantly less than the specification. If the battery is aged, the Battery Service Required alarm is presented each time the monitor is turned on, indicating that the battery has reached its end of life.
For more information on battery-related alarms, see Appendix D Alarm Messages .
22.5
Charging the Battery
To optimize performance, a fully (or nearly fully) discharged battery should be charged as soon as possible. The battery can be charged in any of the following methods:
■
■
■
Method 1: the monitor is connected to the AC adapter or Dock.
Method 2: the monitor is in use with a host monitor.
Method 3: the monitor is in use with the Transport Dock.
For method 1 and method 3, the battery is charged regardless of whether or not the monitor is currently turned on. For method 2, the host monitor must be powered on for the N1 monitor's battery to charge.
22.6
Maintaining the Battery
22.6.1
Conditioning the Battery
The performance of the battery deteriorates over time. You should condition the battery every three months. If the battery is not conditioned for a prolonged time, its charge indication may not be accurate and you may wrongly evaluate the remaining battery runtime.
To condition a battery, follow this procedure:
1.
Disconnect the monitor from the patient and stop all monitoring and measuring procedures.
2.
Turn off the monitor, and connect the monitor to the external power source.
3.
Allow the battery to be charged uninterruptedly until it is fully charged.
4.
Disconnect the monitor from the external power source, and turn on the monitor.
5.
Allow the monitor to run on the battery until the battery is completely depleted and the monitor automatically shuts down.
6.
Fully charge the battery again for use or charge it to 40 - 60% for storage.
NOTE
•
Do not use the monitor to monitor a patient during battery conditioning.
•
Do not interrupt battery conditioning. Interrupting battery conditioning to use the monitor will prevent completion of the conditioning cycle and require repeating the conditioning process completely to properly condition the battery.
22.6.2
Checking Battery Performance
Life expectancy of a battery depends on how frequent and how long it is used. When properly used, the lithiumion battery has a useful life of approximately two years. If improperly used, its life expectancy can be shorter. We recommend replacing the lithium-ion battery every two years.
The performance of a rechargeable battery deteriorates over time. You should check the battery performance every two months or if you question it is meeting the product specifications.
See steps 1 to 5 of
22.6.1 Conditioning the Battery
to check battery performance. The operating time of the batteries reflects their performance directly. If the operating time of a battery is noticeably shorter than that stated in the specifications, the battery may have reached its service life or be malfunctioning. If the battery performance meets the requirement, fully charge the battery again for use or charge it to 40 - 60% for storage.
NOTE
•
Battery operating time depends on equipment configuration and operation. For example, high display brightness or measuring NIBP repeatedly will shorten the battery operating time.
BeneVision N1 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 22 - 3
22.7
Storing Batteries
When storing batteries, make sure that the battery terminals do not come into contact with metallic objects. If batteries are stored for an extended period of time, place the batteries in a cool place with a partial charge of
40% to 60% capacity.
NOTE
•
Remove the battery from the equipment if the equipment is not used for a prolonged time (for example, several weeks). Otherwise the battery may overdischarge.
•
Storing batteries at high temperature for an extended period of time will significantly shorten their life expectancy.
•
Storing batteries in a cool place can slow the aging process. Ideally the batteries should be stored at
15 °C.
22.8
Recycling Batteries
Discard a battery in the following situations:
■
■
■
■
The battery has visual signs of damage.
The battery fails.
The battery is aged and its runtime significantly less than the specification.
The battery has been used for more than it service time.
Properly dispose of batteries according to local regulations.
WARNING

There is a leak in the cuff or air tubing. Use a cuff of correct type based on the patient size. Apply the cuff and connect the air tubing as instructed in the manual.
Check the NIBP cuff and pump for leakages.
The air tubing may be occluded. Check the air tubing for an occlusion or kinking. If the alarm persists, contact your service personnel.
The patient’s pulse is weak or the cuff is loose.
Check the patient’s condition and replace the cuff application site.
The measured NIBP value exceeds the module measurement range. Check the patient’s condition.
Check the patient’s condition and reduce patient motion.
The NIBP airway may be occluded. Check the airway and measure again. If the alarm persists, contact your service personnel.
The measurement time exceeds 120 seconds in the adult or pediatric mode, or exceeds 90 seconds in the neonatal mode, and the BP value cannot be obtained. Check the patient’s condition and NIBP connections, or replace the cuff and measure again.
The cuff type mismatches the patient category.
Verify the patient category or replace the cuff if necessary. If patient category is correct, check that the tubing is not bent and the airway is not occluded.
Airway leakage is found during the NIBP leakage test. Check the NIBP cuff and pump for leakages.
