Safety

1.1

1.1.1

Safety Information

WARNING

Indicates a potential hazard or unsafe practice that, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.

CAUTION

Indicates a potential hazard or unsafe practice that, if not avoided, could result in minor personal injury or product/property damage.

NOTE

Provides application tips or other useful information that does not involve patient or user risk.

Warnings

WARNING

Patient with a pacemaker – 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. Keep pacemaker patients under close surveillance.

This equipment is used for a single patient at a time.

To avoid explosion hazards, do not use the equipment in the presence of oxygen-rich atmospheres, flammable anesthetics, or other flammable agents.

Do not touch the equipment’s metal parts or connectors when in contact with the patient; otherwise patient injury may result.

Never mix patient electrode types or brands. Dissimilar metals or other incompatibilities may cause considerable baseline drift and may increase trace recovery time after defibrillation.

To reduce the hazard of burns during high-frequency surgical procedure, ensure that the monitor’s cables and transducers never come into contact with the electro-surgery unit (ESU).

The neutral electrode of the electro-surgery unit (ESU) shall properly contact the patient. Otherwise, burns may result.

MR unsafe: the N Series monitor is not intended to be used within the Magnetic Resonance (MR) environment.

Before connecting the equipment to the mains power, ensure that the voltage and frequency ratings of the power line are the same as those indicated on the equipment’s label or in this manual.

Before putting the system into operation, the operator must verify that the equipment, connecting cables, and accessories are in correct working order and operating condition.

To avoid risk of electric shock, the equipment must only be connected to mains power with protective earth, or operated on battery power.

Do not touch the patient and live parts simultaneously. Otherwise patient injury may result.

Do not touch the patient or metal parts in contact with the patient during defibrillation. Otherwise serious injury or death could result.

Do not open the equipment housings. All servicing and future upgrades must be carried out by trained and authorized personnel.

BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 1 - 1

Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring. Turning the alarm volume to a low level or off may result in a hazard to the patient. Always keep the patient under close surveillance.

Alarm settings should be customized according to patient situations.

Do not place the equipment or accessories in any position that might cause it to fall on the patient.

Do not start or operate the equipment unless the setup was verified to be correct.

To avoid inadvertent disconnection, route all cables in a way to prevent a stumbling hazard. Wrap and secure excess cabling to reduce risk of entanglement by patients or personnel.

The physiological data and alarm messages displayed on the equipment are for reference only and cannot be directly used for diagnostic interpretation. The equipment should not be used as the sole basis for medical decisions. It must be used in conjunction with clinical signs and symptom. If any measurement seems questionable, first check the patient’s vital signs by alternate means and then check the equipment for proper functioning.

1.1.2

Cautions

CAUTION

Use only parts and accessories specified in this manual.

Disposable accessories are not designed to be reused. Reuse may cause a risk of contamination and affect the measurement accuracy.

Ensure that the equipment is supplied with continuous electric power during operation from the mains power or batteries. Sudden power failure may cause data loss.

When no battery is installed, ensure that the monitor is supplied with continuous electric power during operation. Sudden power failure may lead to data loss.

Store and use the equipment in specified environmental condition. The monitor and accessories may not meet the performance specification due to aging, stored or used outside the specified temperature and humidity range.

Magnetic and electrical fields are capable of interfering with the proper performance of the equipment. For this reason make sure that all external devices operated in the vicinity of the equipment comply with the relevant EMC requirements.

Interfacing with External Devices

6.1

BeneLink Introduction

BeneLink module is intended for connecting external devices, such as ventilators and anesthesia machines, to the monitor. It allows information (patient data, alarms, etc.) from external devices to be displayed, saved, recorded, or printed through the monitor. If the monitor is connected with the CMS or eGateway, information from external devices can also be transmitted to the CMS or eGateway.

For more information on connecting external devices via the BeneLink module, see BeneLink Module Operator’s

Manual (PN: 046-011948-00).

6.2

BeneLink Safety Information

WARNING

Devices of the same category cannot be connected to the BeneLink module simultaneously.

The parameter labels used on the patient monitor may be different from those used on the external device.

The alarms from external devices may be delayed before transmission to the patient monitor.

There can be differences between the alarm priorities displayed on the monitors and the priorities displayed on external devices interfaced through BeneLink.

CAUTION

Check the compatibility of the external devices and ID adapters before connection. Otherwise, unpredictable system failure may result.

NOTE

The alarm messages from external devices are derived from the open protocol of the corresponding external device. For more information about these alarms, please see the operator’s manual for the corresponding devices.

BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 6 - 1

6.3

6.4

Differences in Displayed Values

In certain cases, there may be differences between the numerics displayed on the monitor and those on external devices. The table below lists some situations and possible reasons.

Situation

Some parameter values are displayed as invalid values on the monitor.

The monitor and external device display parameter values with different numbers of places of decimals.

Non-continuously measured values and continuously measured values have the same displaying mode in the patient monitor.

Parameter values displayed on the patient monitor and those displayed in the external device are slightly different.

Possible Reasons

The patient monitor and the external device may have different parameter configuration or displaying range of values. If the patient monitor displays a parameter not configured in the external device, or a parameter value from the external device exceeds the displaying range of the monitor, then the corresponding parameter value is displayed on the monitor as an invalid value.

The monitor displays parameter values from the external device based on the monitor displaying rules. Same parameter value is displayed differently when the monitor and the external device display numbers with different precision.

For non-continuously measured values, the monitor displays the latest measured values until a new measurement is transmitted by the external device.

Some parameter values are converted to different units when transmitted to the monitor. Sometimes, values from the external device may be delayed before transmission to the patient monitor.

NOTE

When the pressure units are converted among cmH

2

O, hPa and mbar, the parameter values remain unchanged, for example, 1cmH

2

O=1hPa=1mbar, which may differ from some external devices.

Connecting an External Device

An external device is connected to the BeneLink module through an ID adapter. The ID adapter supports only its matching device.

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.

8.3.2

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 N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 8 - 1

8.3.3

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.

8.3.4

Alarm Status Symbols

Apart from the alarm indicators as described in 8.3.3 Alarm Indicators , the monitor uses the following symbols

to indicate the alarm status:

Alarm pause: indicates that all the alarms are paused.

Alarm off: indicates that individual measurement alarms are turned off or the system is in the alarm off status.

Audio pause: indicates that audible alarm tones are paused.

Audio off: indicates that audible alarm tones are turned off.

Alarm reset: indicates that the alarm system is reset.

8.4

Accessing On-screen Help for Technical Alarms (AlarmSight)

In the technical alarm list, alarm messages followed by Detail include help messages or pictures to help you identify the problem. This function is called AlarmSight. To access AlarmSight, follow this procedure:

1.

Select an alarm displaying in the technical alarm information area to enter the Alarms dialog.

2.

From the alarm list select the desired alarm.

Latching Alarms

The latching setting for physiological alarms defines how alarm indicators behave if you do not reset the alarms.

If you do not “latch” physiological alarms, their alarm indications disappear when the alarm condition ends.

If you “latch” physiological alarms, all visual and audible alarm indications remain (if configured) until the alarms are reset. For latched alarms the time when the alarm is last triggered is displayed behind the alarm message.

The monitor can be set to separately latch visual indications or simultaneously latch the visual and the audible indications.

When visual indications are latched, visual indications, including alarm lamp, alarm message and its background remain when the alarm condition ends and the time when the alarm last triggered is displayed behind the alarm message.

When audible indications are latched, the monitor continues to issues alarm sounds when the alarm condition ends.

To set how you want to latch the physiological alarms, see section 32.3.4 Latching Physiological Alarms .

NOTE

Changing alarm priority may affect the latching status of the corresponding alarm. Determine if you need to adjust the latching status for the specific alarm when you have changed its alarm priority.

When the alarm system is reset, latched physiological alarms are cleared.

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.

Interference from an ungrounded instrument near the patient or electrosurgery usage can induce noise and artifact into the waveforms.

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.

2.

Place the electrodes on the prepared sites. Ensure that all electrodes have good skin contact.

9 - 2 BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual

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.

9.4.4.6

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 N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 9 - 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.

9.4.5

9.4.6

Choosing the ECG Lead Type

To choose ECG lead type, follow this procedure:

1.

Select the ECG numeric area or waveform area to enter the ECG dialog.

2.

Select the Setup tab.

3.

Set Lead Set according to the lead type you are going to use. The default lead type is Auto . In this case, the monitor automatically detects the lead type.

Checking Paced Status

It is important to correctly set the patient’s paced status before you start monitoring ECG. The paced symbol is displayed when Paced is set to Yes . Pace pulse markers “|” are displayed on each ECG waveform whenever a pacer signal is detected. If Paced is set to No or unspecified, the symbol will be shown in the ECG waveform area.

To change the paced status, follow this procedure:

1.

Select the ECG numeric area or waveform area to enter the ECG dialog.

2.

Select the Pacer tab.

3.

Set Paced to Yes or No .

You can also change the patient’s paced status from the Patient Management dialog. For more information, see

5.2.1 Entering the Patient Management Dialog

.

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, neonatal patients, and patients with NMT monitoring.

9.4.7

Enabling Pacer Rejection

To eliminate the pacing pulse from the ECG waveform of paced patients, it is recommended to enable the pace pulse rejection function. The pace pulse rejection function is disabled by default. To enable this function, follow this procedure:

9.6.1

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.

Intelligent Arrhythmia Alarm

Normally, an arrhythmia alarm is presented when an alarm condition is detected. However, there are certain situations that can inhibit audible and visible alarm indications even though an alarm condition was detected.

For more information, see 9.6.5.1 Arrhythmia Alarm Chains and 9.6.5.2 Arrhythmia Alarm Shielding Rules .

Adjusting ST Measurement Points

9.7.9.1

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.

9.7.9.2

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 N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 9 - 19

9.8

9.8.1

9.8.2

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.

2.

Select the QT tab → select the Setup tab.

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 .

2.

From the pop-up dialog box, select Ok . This baseline will then be used to calculate ΔQTc.

9.9.1

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.

9 - 22 BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual

9.9.2

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.

9.10

Defibrillation Synchronization Pulse Output

The 12-lead MPM module 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 analog out connector each time an R-wave is detected. The 3/5/6 lead MPM module 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.

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.

10.4.2

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:

Monitoring Impedance Respiration (Resp)

11.1

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 CO2 module or anesthetic gas (AG) module. Refer to 19 Monitoring

Carbon Dioxide (CO

2)

and 20 Monitoring Anesthetic Gas (AG) for respiration information specific to those modules.

11.2

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

11.4.1

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.

11 - 2 BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual

11.4.2

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 9.4.4 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.

◆ 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

11.5.7 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.

11.5.7

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

)

12.1

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.

You can simultaneously measure SpO

2

from two different measurement sources: the MPM module and the SpO

2 module. The measurement from the MPM module is labelled as SpO

2

and the measurement from the SpO

2 module is labelled as SpO

2 b.

The monitor can be configured with Masimo SpO

2 or Nellcor SpO

2

:

Masimo SpO

NOTE

If you need to measure SpO

2

by both the MPM module and the SpO

2

module, select the same type of

SpO

2

. Otherwise, the SpO

2

module will be disabled. For example, if an MPM module configured with the Nellcor SpO

2

and an SpO

2

module configured with the Masimo SpO

2

are simultaneously applied, the SpO

module will be automatically disabled.

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.

A functional tester or SpO

A functional tester or SpO

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).

12 - 2 BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual

Masimo cables and sensors are provided with X-Cal™ technology to minimize the risk of inaccurate readings and unanticipated loss of patient monitoring. Refer to the Cable or Sensor DFU for the specified duration of the patient monitoring time.

Nellcor SatSeconds

TM

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:

%SpO

2

Seconds

Saturation levels may fluctuate rather than remaining steady for a period of several seconds. Often, the patient

SpO

2

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

SatSeconds limit is reached, or the patient SpO

2

re-enters the non-alarm range and remains there.

NOTE

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 .

12 - 6 BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual

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.

Configuring the monitor to “Load Latest Configuration” as the default configuration may result in

Masimo SpO

2

being set to Maximum sensitivity mode on power up or after admitting a new patient.

Maximum sensitivity is recommended for use during procedures or when clinician and patient contact is continuous, such as in higher acuity settings. Maximum sensitivity is not recommended for care areas where patients are not monitored visually as “Sensor Off” detection may be compromised. Refer to

Section 31.4 Setting Default Configuration for managing configuration.

FastSAT enables rapid tracking of arterial oxygen saturation changes as may be required in urgent situations.

When FastSAT is switched on, the averaging algorithm evaluates all the SpO

2

values and provides an averaged

SpO

2

value that is a better representation of the patient’s current oxygen saturation status.

The reliability of FastSAT is dependent on the setting for the averaging time and the input signal. FastSAT is disabled by default. To enable FastSAT, follow this procedure:

Monitoring Temperature (Temp)

13.1

Temperature Introduction

The monitor can continuously monitor the patient’s skin temperature and core temperature by the MPM module and the Temp modules. 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.

You can connect an MPM module and up to three Temp modules. Up to eight 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)

14.1

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.

The NIBP module is integrated into the MPM module. 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.

14.2

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.

BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 14 - 1

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.

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.

14.3

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.

14.4

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.

14.6

Preparing for NIBP Measurements

14.6.1

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 N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 14 - 3

Other factors that have been shown to result in an overestimation of blood pressure are labored breathing, full bladder, pain etc.

14.6.2

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

14.8.7 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.

IBP Safety Information

WARNING

Use only pressure transducers specified in this manual. Never reuse disposable pressure transducers. See chapter

36 Accessories for specified pressure transducers.

Make sure that the applied parts never contact other conductive parts.

To reduce the hazard of burns during high-frequency surgical procedures, ensure that the monitor’s cables and transducers never come into contact with the high-frequency surgical units.

When using accessories, their operating temperature should be taken into consideration. For more information, see instructions for use of accessories.

All invasive procedures involve risks to the patient. Use aseptic technique. Follow catheter manufacturer's instructions.

Mechanical shock to the invasive blood pressure transducer may cause severe shifts in zero balance and calibration, and cause erroneous readings.

The neutral electrode of the electro-surgery unit (ESU) shall properly contact the patient. Otherwise, burns may result.

CAUTION

Measuring IBP on patients connected to an Intra Aortic Balloon Pump (IABP) machine may result in the IBP measurement, including PR, to be inaccurate or fail.

WARNING

This monitor can calculate PPV from beat-to-beat values of any arterial pulsatile pressure. The circumstances under which the calculation of a PPV value is clinically meaningful, appropriate and reliable must be determined by a physician.

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 N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 15 - 7

15.7

PAWP

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.

Select the up or down arrow button to adjust the PAWP value.

Select the left or right arrow button to view the frozen waveforms of 40 seconds.

Select Accept to save the PAWP value.

WARNING

Prolonged inflation can cause pulmonary hemorrhage, infarction or both. Inflate the balloon for the minimum time necessary to get an accurate measurement.

If the PAWP is greater than the PA (systolic), deflate the balloon and report the incident in accordance with hospital policy. 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.

NOTE

The PA alarm is turned off automatically when the monitor enters the PAWP screen.

Monitoring Cardiac Output (C.O.)

16.1

C.O. Introduction

The cardiac output (C.O.) measurement invasively measures cardiac output and other hemodynamic parameters using the right heart (atria) thermodilution method. A cold solution of known volume and temperature is injected into the right atrium through the proximal port of a pulmonary artery (PA) catheter. The cold solution mixes with the blood in the right ventricle and the change in blood temperature is measured with a thermistor at the distal end of the catheter in the pulmonary artery. The temperature change is displayed as a curve on the

C.O. split screen, and the monitor calculates the C.O. value from this curve. The C.O. value is inversely proportional to the area under the curve. As cardiac output varies continuously, a series of measurements must be carried out to achieve a reliable C.O. average value. Always use the average of multiple thermodilution measurements for therapy decisions. The monitor is capable of storing 6 measurements.

C.O. monitoring is intended for adult patients only.

Monitoring Central Venous Oxygen Saturation

(ScvO

2

)

17.1

ScvO

2

Introduction

Central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO

2

) is measured across spectrophotometry. Spectrophotometry involves the use of light emitting diodes (LED) that produce light of various wavelengths in red and infrared spectra. The light is transmitted to the blood through a fiberoptic in the probe, reflected off the red blood cells and transmitted back through a separate fiberoptic to an optical module. The central venous oxygen saturation is calculated through the analysis of the reflected spectra.

measurements, follow this procedure:

1.

Apply the central venous catheter.

2.

Place one end of the fiberoptic probe into the central venous catheter through the distal lumina, and connect the other end to the CeVOX optical module.

3.

Plug the CeVOX cable into the ScvO

2

module.

4.

If you see the message Calibration Required , calibrate the ScvO

2

before performing the measurements.

For more information, see 17.7 ScvO

2

Calibration

.

5.

Check the reading in the ScvO

2

numeric area.

WARNING

To avoid application failure, ensure that the proper fiberoptic probe is selected.

The monitor may only be regarded as a device providing early warning. If there is an indication of a trend towards de-oxygenation of the patient, blood samples must be taken and tested on a laboratory oximeter in order to arrive at a decision concerning the condition of the patient.

Incorrect placement of the fiberoptic probe can lead to vessel perforation. Therefore, check the correct position of the probe as indicated in the probe’s instructions for use.

17.7

ScvO

Calibration

Regular in vivo calibration is required using blood gas analysis of a central venous blood sample to ensure accurate measurement of continuous ScvO

2

. For optimal accuracy, it is recommended that an in vivo calibration be performed at least every 24 hours or if hemoglobin is changing (for more details, check the notes below).

To perform calibration, follow this procedure:

1.

Check the central venous catheter and CeVOX probe for proper placement.

2.

Check the quality of the signal. The Signal Quality Indicator (SQI) is used for assessing the quality of fiberoptical signals during probe placement, calibration and measurement. The signal quality is indicated by bars of different height levels. Generally, the higher the level, the better the signal.

3.

Withdraw a sufficient amount of central venous blood from the side port of the CeVOX probe to avoid intermixture of infusion/injection with the withdrawn blood.

4.

Slowly withdraw 2ml blood from the side port of the CeVOX probe. Do not pull too strongly in order to avoid a hemolysis.

5.

Immediately confirm by selecting Sample Drawn in the Calibration page of the ScvO2 dialog.

6.

If necessary put blood sample on ice and perform an analysis by a blood gas analysis device or a laboratory oximeter.

7.

Input lab values for Hb, Hct, and ScvO

2

and select Calibrate to confirm.

NOTE

The SQI signal can be affected by the presence of electrosurgical units. Keep electrocautery equipment and cables away from the monitor and use separate power socket if possible.

To achieve optimal accuracy, it is recommended that the entered hemoglobin and hematocrit values are updated when there is a change of 6% or more in hematocrit, or of 1.8 g/dl (1.1 mmol/l) or more in hemoglobin. A change in hemoglobin may also affect SQI.

Dye (e.g. Indocyanine Green) or other substances, containing dyes which usually modify the light absorption capacities, can lead to faulty measurement values of the oxygen saturation.

Monitoring Carbon Dioxide (CO

2

)

19.1

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.

Monitoring Anesthetic Gas (AG)

20.1

AG Introduction

The anesthetic gas (AG) module measures the patient’s anesthetic and respiratory gases by connecting to the airway of intubated patients or collecting the gases with specified accessories. It also incorporates the features of the O

2

module and BIS module.

The AG module determines the concentration of certain gases using the infrared (IR) light absorption measurement. The gases that can be measured by the AG module absorbing IR light. Each gas has its own absorption characteristic. The gas is transported into a sample cell, and an optical IR filter selects a specific band of IR light to pass through the gas. For multiple gas measurements, there are multiple IR filters. The higher the concentration of gas in a given volume, the more IR light is absorbed. This means that higher concentration of IR absorbing gas causes a lower transmission of IR light. The amount of IR light transmitted after it has been passed through an IR absorbing gas is measured. From the amount of IR light measured, the concentration of gas present can be calculated.

Oxygen does not absorb IR light as other breathing gases and is therefore measured relying on its paramagnetic properties. Inside the O

2

sensor are two nitrogen-filled glass spheres mounted on a strong rare metal taut-band suspension. This assembly is suspended in a symmetrical non-uniform magnetic field. In the presence of paramagnetic oxygen, the glass spheres are pushed further away from the strongest part of the magnetic field.

The strength of the torque acting on the suspension is proportional to the oxygen concentration. From the strength of the torque, the concentration of oxygen is calculated.

AG monitoring is intended for adult, pediatric and neonatal patients.

AG Safety Information

WARNING

To avoid explosion hazard, do not use flammable anesthetic agent such as ether and cyclopropane for this equipment.

The presence of other substances in the patient’s breathing circuit, such as ethanol, acetone, methanol, isopropanol, freon, asthma medication carrier gases, and other infrared absorbing gases, can influence the anesthesia agent identification and lead to incorrect measurements and identification.

Using high-frequency electrosurgical units may increase the risk of skin burn. In this case, do not use antistatic or conductive respiratory tubing.

Route all tubing away from the patient’s throat to avoid strangulation.

CAUTION

Perform the measurement in a well-ventilated environment.

EtCO

2

values measured from the AG module may differ from that of from the blood gas analysis.

NOTE

The AG module automatically suppresses physiological alarms until breathing waves have been detected. Make sure that a patient is properly connected when monitoring with the AG module

Preparing for AG Monitoring

To prepare to monitor AG, follow this procedure:

1.

Select the appropriate gas sample line and watertrap according to the patient category.

2.

Connect the watertrap to the AG module, and connect the gas sample line to the watertrap.

3.

Connect the other end of the gas sample line to the patient via the airway adapter.

4.

Connect the gas outlet to a scavenging system or the patient respiration circuit using an exhaust tube.

5.

Check that the connections are tight.

After the AG module is connected to the SMR, the AG module enters the measurement mode by default and the monitor prompts AG Starting . AG measurement is available after the start-up is completed.

WARNING

When using the AG module, connect the gas outlet to the scavenging system or the patient respiration circuit when in use with the Mindray A7 anesthesia machine.

If the sampled gas is returned to the breathing system, there may be a risk of patient crossinfection.

If the sampled gas is returned to the breathing system, install a breathing system filter compliant with the ISO 23328-1 and ISO 23328-2 standards on the patient end.

Make sure that the connections are tight. Any leak in the system can result in erroneous readings due to ambient air mixing with patient gases.

Always inspect the airway adapter for a tight connection and proper operation before attaching it to the patient.

Squeezing or bending the gas sample line during AG measurement may cause erroneous readings or no readings.

CAUTION

Position the airway adapter so that the part connecting to the gas sample line is pointing upwards.

This prevents condensed water from passing into the gas sample line and causing an occlusion.

The watertrap collects water drops condensed in the sample line and therefore prevents them from entering the module. To avoid blocking the airway, empty the watertrap container whenever half full.

The watertrap has a filter preventing bacterium, water and secretions from entering the module.

After long-term use, dust or other substances may compromise the performance of the filter or even block the airway. In this case, replace the watertrap. Replacing the watertrap once a month is recommended.

NOTE

Do not apply adult watertrap to the neonatal patient. Otherwise, patient injury could result.

To extend the lifetime of the watertrap and module, disconnect the watertrap from the module and set the operating mode to Standby when AG monitoring is not required.

20.7

Zeroing the AG Module

The AG module performs a zero calibration automatically when needed. Once the zero calibration is started, the

AG module stops measuring and “ Zeroing ” is displayed in the AG numeric area.

20 - 4 BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual

After the zero calibration is completed, the AG module reacquires the AG readings. During the reacquisition period, “ Zero Recovering ” is displayed in the AG numeric area. Valid data will reappear 30 seconds after the zero calibration is started. You can hide the display of the “ Zero Recovering ” message, but values displayed during

the reacquisition period may not be accurate. See 32.5.8 Hiding the Invalid Display after Zeroing the AG Module for

more information.

The automatic zero calibration will not start under the following conditions:

20.8

MAC Values

Minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) is the minimum concentration of the agent in the alveoli. It is a basic index to indicate the depth of anesthesia. The standard ISO 80601-2-55 defines MAC as this: alveolar concentration of an inhaled anesthetic agent that, in the absence of other anesthetic agents and at equilibrium, prevents 50% of patients from moving in response to a standard surgical stimulus.

MAC values are listed below:

EEG Safety Information

WARNING

: •

The conductive parts of electrodes and connectors should not contact other conductive parts, including electrically grounded parts.

To reduce the hazard of burns in the high-frequency surgical neutral electrode connection, the EEG sensor should not be located between the surgical site and the electrosurgical unit return electrode.

To avoid burns at the application site, do not use needle electrodes to perform EEG monitoring if electrosurgical unit (ESU) is in use. In case that needle electrodes are used, disconnect the EEG cable from the monitor and move the EEG cable away from the ESU cable before starting the ESU.

The EEG electrode must not be located between defibrillator pads when a defibrillator is used on a patient under monitoring.

To ensure proper defibrillator protection, use only recommended cables and leadwires.

EEG is a complex monitoring technology intended for use only as an adjunct to clinical judgment and training.

CAUTION

Only use parts and accessories specified in this manual. Follow the instructions for use and adhere to all warnings and cautions.

BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 21 - 1

Implanted devices (for example cardiac pacemakers), other patient connected equipment, and other equipment near the patient (for example high-frequency surgical units) can cause interference on the waveform, numerics, and the CSA presentation.

External radiating devices may disturb the measurement. It is recommended to avoid the use of electrical radiating equipment in close proximity to the monitor.

Interference from ECG can be eliminated by adjusting the filter settings.

NOTE

The EEG accessories are purchased from EB Neuro S.p.A. Please contact EB Neuro or visit its website

(www.ebneuro.com) for more information.

In the event of electrode connection issues, the monitor provides an error indication only when it performs an auto sensor check according to the time interval that is set by the user. It is recommended to start a manual sensor check if an abnormal waveform or high noise is observed.

21.3

EEG Parameters

EEG monitoring provides nine parameters: SEF, MF, PPF, TP, SR, Delta, Theta, Alpha, and Beta. The numerics area of each EEG channel can display up to six parameters.

Parameter Label

SEF

(Spectrum Edge Frequency)

MF

(Median Frequency)

PPF

(Peak Power Frequency)

TP

(Total Power)

SR

(Suppression Ratio)

Delta%, Theta%, Alpha%, Beta%

(Frequency band ratio)

Description

The frequency at which 95% of the total power lies below it and 5% lies above it. Its range is from 0.5 to 30.0 Hz.

The frequency at which 50% of the total power lies below it and 50% lies above it. Its range is from 0.5 to 30.0Hz.

The PPF is the frequency with the highest measured amplitude range from 0.5 to 30 Hz.

TP numeric is a measure of the absolute total power in the frequency band from 0.5 to 30.0 Hz. The useful range is from 40 to 100 dB, where 0 dB = 0.0001uV2..

SR numeric is the percentage of time in the past 60 seconds in which the EEG signal is considered suppressed.

EEG is traditionally divided into four frequency bands: delta, theta, alpha and beta. Frequency band ratio is the percentage of total power falling in corresponding band. For example, Delta % = Power in delta band/Total power.

Alpha waves: 8 to 13 Hz

Beta waves: 13 to 30 Hz

Theta waves: 4 to 8 Hz

Delta waves: 0.5 to 4 Hz

EEG Troubleshooting

This section lists the problems that might occur. If you encounter the problems when using the equipment or accessories, check the table below before requesting for services. If the problem persists after corrective actions have been taken, contact the service personnel.

Problem

EEG signal is noisy

EEG cable and electrodes properly connected, but no EEG waveforms.

The EEG numerics area displays ”- -”.

EEG waveform baseline fluctuates.

The electrode impedances show “- -” and there is a message prompting to check the ground electrode?

Solution

1. Check that the electrodes are properly connected and not dried out.

2. Check that the electrodes properly contact with skin.

3. Perform electrode impedance check.

4. Calm the patient since frontal muscle activity can cause artifact.

5. Remove sources of external electrical noise (for example, the lamps) from the vicinity of the patient’s head.

6. ECG monitoring may cause artifact; change electrode positioning.

7. Possible mains power noise. Check that the monitor and other medical devices connected to the patient are properly connected to earth ground. If the noise persists, consider stopping EEG monitoring.

1. The number of channels in the montage is smaller than the number of channels connected to the patient. Check the number of channels.

2. Select the Screen Setup quick key → Parameters On/Off. Make sure that EEG parameter is turned on.

The patient has high muscle activity in the head area, or noise from some interfering equipment is coupling to electrode cables. Relax the patient and remove the source of noise.

1. Sweating may cause variations in the electrode impedance. Check the patient.

2. If the fluctuation is disturbing, prepare the skin and replace the electrodes.

The ground electrode is poorly connected to the patient. Check the electrode and cable. If the impedance of the electrode is too high, the measurement fails even if the electrode is properly attached. Use better electrodes or prepare the skin better.

Monitoring Bispectral Index (BIS)

22.1

BIS Introduction

Bispectral Index (BIS) monitoring helps to monitor the level of consciousness of a patient under general anesthesia or sedation in OR and ICU. It is designed to monitor the hypnotic state of the brain based on acquisition and processing of EEG signals. Use of BIS monitoring to help guide anesthetic administration may be associated with the reduction of the incidence of awareness with recall during general anesthesia or sedation.

There are two BIS solutions available for use with the BIS module: the BISx or the BISx4. The BISx is for single side

BIS monitoring, and the BISx4 is for both single side and bilateral BIS monitoring. The BISx4 provides bilateral BIS monitoring only when the BIS Bilateral Sensor is connected.

BIS monitoring is intended for adult and pediatric patients.

BIS Safety Information

WARNING

BIS monitoring is not intended for neonatal patients.

The BIS technology used with this monitor is purchased from Covidien. It is important to recognize this index is derived using solely that company's proprietary technology. Therefore, it is recommended that clinicians have reviewed applicable information on its utility and/or risks in published articles and literature/web site information from Covidien, or contact Covidien at www.covidien.com for clinical-based BIS questions. Failure to do so could potentially result in the incorrect administration of anesthetic agents and/or other potential complications of anesthesia or sedation. It is recommend that clinicians also review the following practice advisory (that includes a section on BIS monitoring): The American Society of Anesthesiologists, Practice Advisory for

Intraoperative Awareness and Brain Function Monitoring (Anesthesiology 2006;104:847-64).

Clinicians are also recommended to maintain current knowledge of FDA or other federal-based regulatory, practice or research information on BIS and related topics.

The conductive parts of sensors and connectors should not come into contact with other conductive parts, including earth conductors.

To reduce the hazard of burns in the high-frequency surgical neutral electrode connection, the BIS sensor should not be located between the surgical site and the electrosurgical unit return electrode.

To reduce the hazard of burns during use of brain-stimulating devices (e.g. transcranial electrical motor evoked potential), place stimulating electrodes as far as possible from the BIS sensor and make certain that sensor is placed according to package instructions.

The BIS sensor must not be located between defibrillator pads when a defibrillator is used on a patient connected to the monitor.

The clinical utility, risk/benefit and application of the BIS component have not undergone full evaluation in the pediatric population.

Due to limited clinical experience for patients with neurological disorders, patients taking psychoactive medication, and children under one year old, BIS values from these patients should be interpreted cautiously.

The BIS monitoring is a complex technology, intended for use only as an adjunct to clinical judgment and training. Clinical judgment should always be used when interpreting BIS in conjunction with other available clinical signs. Reliance on BIS alone for intraoperative anesthetic management is not recommended.

Misinterpretation of BIS can result in incorrect administration of anesthetic agents and/or other potential complications of anesthesia or sedation.

BIS values should be interpreted cautiously with certain anesthetic combinations, such as those relying primarily on either ketamine or nitrous oxide/narcotics to produce unconsciousness.

CAUTION

Ensure that the BISx or BISx4 does not come into prolonged contact with the patient's skin, as it may generate heat and cause discomfort.

Do not use the BIS sensor if the sensor gel is dry. To avoid dryout, do not open the pack until you are ready to use the sensor.

When using electro-convulsive therapy (ECT) equipment during BIS monitoring, place ECT electrodes as far as possible from the BIS sensor to minimize the effect of interference. Certain ECT equipment may interfere with the proper function of the BIS monitoring system. Check for compatibility of equipment during patient setup.

The BIS measurement based on measuring the EEG signal is inherently very sensitive. Do not use electrical radiating equipment close to the BISx or BISx4.

Artifact may lead to inappropriate BIS values. Potential artifact may be caused by unusual or excessive electrical interference or high EMG activity like shivering, muscle activity or rigidity, sustained eye movements, head and body motion. Also, improper sensor placement and poor skin contact (high impedance) may cause artifact and interfere with the measurement.

External radiating devices may disturb the measurement.

Poor signal quality may lead to inappropriate BIS values.

22.3

BIS Parameters

Single side BIS monitoring provides the following parameters:

Parameter Description

BIS

(Bispectral Index)

SQI

(Signal Quality Index)

EMG

(Electromyography)

The BIS numeric reflects the patient’s level of consciousness. It ranges from 100 for wide awake to 0 in the absence of brain activity.

100: the patient is wide awake.

70: the patient is underdosed but still unlikely to become aware.

60: the patient is under general anesthesia and loses consciousness.

40: the patient is overdosed and in deep hypnosis.

0: the EEG is a flat line. The patient has no electrical brain activity.

The SQI numeric reflects signal quality and provides information about the reliability of the BIS, SEF, TP, and SR numerics during the last minute. The greater the SQI value, the better signal quality.

EMG bar graph reflects the electrical power of muscle activity and high frequency artifacts. Low EMG indicates that EMG activity is low. BIS monitoring conditions are optimal when the bar is empty.

SR numeric is the percentage of time over the last 63-second period during which the

EEG is considered to be in a suppressed state.

SR

(Suppression Ratio)

SEF

(Spectral Edge Frequency)

TP

(Total Power)

BC

(Burst Count)

The SEF is a frequency below which 95% of the total power is measured.

TP numeric is a measure of the absolute total power in the frequency ranging from 0.5 to

30.0 Hz. The useful range is from 40 to 100 db.

A burst means a period (at least 0.5 second) of EEG activity followed and preceded by inactivity. The BC numeric helps you quantify suppression by measuring the number of

EEG bursts per minute. For single side BIS monitoring, this parameter is intended for the

BIS module with the Extend sensor only. BC numeric is valid only when SQI≥15% and

SR≥5%.

Bilateral BIS monitoring simultaneously monitors both cerebral hemispheres. When bilateral BIS is monitored, an "L" or "R" will be added to each of the numeric identifiers except ASYM. In addition to the above parameters, it also provides the following parameters:

Parameter sBIS

(BIS Variability Index) sEMG

(EMG Variability Index)

ASYM

(Asymmetry)

Description sBIS numeric represents the standard deviation of the BIS variable over the last three minutes. sEMG numeric represents the standard deviation of the EMG value over the last three minutes.

ASYM is a processed variable indicating the percentage of EEG power presented in the left or right hemisphere with respect to total (left and right) EEG power.

Designation ‘L’ of the asymmetry data indicates asymmetry to the left side.

Designation ‘R’ of the asymmetry data indicates asymmetry to the right side.

22.8

Sensor Check

22.8.1

Automatic Sensor Check

Once the BIS sensor is connected, an automatic sensor check starts to check the sensor type, status, and impedance of all the electrodes, including the signal electrodes, the reference electrode and the ground electrode. During the sensor check, the message “Sensor Check In Progress” displays in the information area. If this message continuously displays, enter the Sensor Check dialog and check if the impedance of each electrode is acceptable.

After the initial sensor check, the monitor performs automatic checks during BIS monitoring. Automatic sensor checks includes the following items:

The combined impedance of the signal electrodes plus the reference electrode. This is done automatically and continuously and does not affect the EEG waveform. As long as the impedances are within the valid range, there is no prompt message of this check or its results.

The impedance of the ground electrode. This is done every ten minutes and takes approximately four seconds. It causes artifact in the EEG waveform, and the message BIS: Checking Ground is displayed on the monitor during the check. If the ground electrode does not pass this check, re-apply the electrode.

Then another check will automatically initiate.

The monitor continually checks impedance levels during a procedure by generating a 128 Hz test signal.

Occasionally this signal may interfere with other equipment. If this becomes a problem, you may need to disable the auto checking. Impedance levels will still be tested at startup, but once they pass, they will not be tested again until a new case is begun.

NOTE

Automatic sensor check may need to be disabled if the 1nA 128 Hz impedance check signal interferes with other equipment.

22.8.2

Disabling automatic sensor check

To disable automatic sensor check, follow this procedure:

1.

Select the BIS numeric area or waveform area to enter the BIS dialog.

2.

Select the Setup tab.

3.

Switch off Auto Check .

CAUTION

Switching the auto impedance check off will disable automatic prompt to the user of impedance value changes, which may lead to incorrect BIS values. Therefore, this should only be done if the check interferes with or disturbs other measurements.

22.8.3

Manual Sensor Check

To manually start a sensor check, use either of the following methods:

Monitoring Neuromuscular Transmission (NMT)

23.1

NMT Introduction

The neuromuscular transmission (NMT) module evaluates muscle relaxation of patients under neuromuscular block by measuring the strength of muscle reaction after electrically stimulating the dedicated motor nerve.

Two electrodes are placed on the patient’s skin over dedicated nerve. A controllable current source delivers stimulation pulses to the two electrodes, and the acceleration of muscle contractions is measured with a 3-axis accelerometer.

NMT monitoring is intended for adult and pediatric patients.

23.2

NMT Safety Information

WARNING

The NMT measurement is not intended for neonatal patients.

The NMT stimulation should not be applied across or through the head, directly on the eyes, covering the mouth, on the front of the neck, especially the carotid sinus, or from electrodes placed on the chest and the upper back or cross over the heart.

Application of electrodes near the thorax may increase the risk of cardiac fibrillation.

Never apply electrodes to patients in areas where inflammation or injury is evident.

When you are connecting the electrodes or the patient cable, make sure that the connectors do not touch any electrically conductive material including earth conductors.

Patients with nerve damage or other neuromuscular problems may not respond properly to stimulation. The NMT measurement may show unusual patterns when monitoring muscle paralysis in these patients.

NMT stimulation current pulses may interfere with other sensitive equipment, for example, implanted cardiac pacemakers. Do not use the NMT measurement on patients with implanted electronic devices unless so directed by a medical specialist.

Simultaneous use of the NMT with high frequency electrosurgical equipment (ESU) may result in burns at the stimulation site and can also adversely affect measurement accuracy. Make sure the

ESU return electrode is properly applied to the patient.

Do not use the NMT in close proximity to shortwave or microtherapy devices, there is a risk of adversely affecting the NMT measurement.

BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 23 - 1

Never touch the electrodes unless the stimulation has been stopped.

Check each time before use that the material insulating the NMT sensor and the stimulation cable is intact and does not show signs of wear and tear.

CAUTION

NMT monitoring is intended as an adjunct in patient assessment and must be used in conjunction with observation of clinical signs and symptoms.

NMT stimulation can be painful to a non-sedated patient. It is recommended not to stimulate before the patient is adequately sedated.

Use only electrodes suitable for nerve stimulation deemed appropriate by the attending physician.

Pay special attention to current densities exceeding 2 mA r.m.s/cm

2

for any electrodes.

23.3

Stimulation Modes

The NMT module provides the following stimulation modes. Some stimulation modes require a minimum neurophysiological recovery time and during this recovery phase no new stimulation can be started. So you cannot start a measurement or calibration.

23.3.1

Train-Of-Four (TOF)

TOF mode is recommended for most cases.

In TOF mode, four stimulation pulses are generated at 0.5 second intervals. Each stimulation of the train causes the muscle to contract. The fade in the individual response to each single stimulation provides a basis for evaluation. The response is measured after each stimulus and the ratio of the fourth to the first response of the

TOF sequence is calculated resulting in TOF-Ratio (TOF%).

When relaxation deepens, the TOF% declines until the fourth response disappears and no TOF% is calculated.

Low response to the first stimulus (T1) also results in TOF% unavailable. When no TOF% is available, the degree of neuromuscular block is estimated from the number of responses or TOF counts. The fewer the response count is detected, the deeper is the relaxation.

If NMT calibration establishes the reference response amplitude, response to T1 as percentage of the reference value is calculated resulting in T1%.

In TOF mode, the minimum neurophysiological recovery time is 10 seconds. If NMT measurement or calibration is initiated during this period, it will be automatically delayed.

23.3.2

Single Twitch (ST)

In single twitch (ST) stimulation, the module delivers a single electrical pulse and measures the strength of the resulting twitch, the module then calculates the ratio of measured response to the reference twitch resulting in

ST-Ratio.

ST mode is practical when using depolarizing relaxants since TOF% does not give any additional information about the patient status. Additionally, when the change of patient’s relaxation level is considered, ST stimulation at a frequency of 1 Hz can indicate the relaxation change in a more real-time way.

23.3.3

Post-Tetanic Count (PTC)

When neuromuscular block deepens, different parameters are needed to measure the response. At first, when the response to the fourth TOF stimulation pulse disappears or the first twitch is very weak, the TOF% is not available and only the number of detected counts can be observed. When stimulation pulses no longer give any stimulation response, you do not get the TOF count either. To monitor the relaxation level, you can start tetanic stimulation and estimate the relaxation level from the Post Tetanic Count (PTC).

PTC stimulation mode starts with a sequence of four current pulses delivered at 2 Hz. If a muscle response is detected, the PTC sequence is stopped and the TOF result is reported. If there is no muscle response, the sequence continues with a five seconds long tetanic stimulation delivered at 50 Hz, followed by a pause of 3 seconds, followed by 20 single current pulses delivered at 1 Hz. The number of detected responses is counted and expressed as PTC. The fewer responses are detected, the deeper the relaxation is.

23 - 2 BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual

After tetanic stimulation, NMT measurements and calibration are disabled for 20 seconds and PTC is disabled for

2 minutes.

23.3.4

Double Burst Stimulation (DBS)

Double Burst Stimulation (DBS) enables better visual observing of the fading in the responses. DBS consists of two separate bursts at an interval of 750 ms, where each burst consists of certain pulses directly after each other at a frequency of 50 Hz. The response ratio of the second to the first burst is calculated resulting in DBS-Ratio, while the number of responses is detected and expressed as DBS Count.

The module supports DBS3.2 and DBS3.3.

■ For DBS3.2 mode, the first burst consists of 3 consecutive pulses, and the second burst consists of 2 consecutive pulses.

For DBS3.3 mode, both bursts consist of 3 consecutive pulses.

In DBS mode, the minimum neurophysiological recovery time is 15 seconds. If NMT measurement or calibration is initiated during this period, it will be automatically delayed.

23.7.2

Preparing the Skin

Good electrode-to-skin contact is important for good signal quality. Before applying the electrodes, clean the application site of oil and dirt and avoid placing the electrodes over excessive body hair or lesions. Insufficient cleaning of the skin can cause high skin impedance which could cause the stimulation to stop.

To properly prepare the skin, follow this procedure:

1.

Select sites with intact skin, without lesion of any kind.

2.

Shave hair from skin at chosen sites.

3.

Gently rub skin surface at sites to remove dead skin cells.

4.

Thoroughly cleanse the site with a mild soap and water solution.

5.

Dry the skin completely before applying the electrodes.

23.7.3

Placing the Electrodes and Sensor

Stimulation of the ulnar nerve in the wrist and acceleration measurements at the adductor pollicis are preferred for routine monitoring. When monitoring neuromuscular transmission, round surface electrodes with snap connection are a must. Small (pediatric or neonatal) electrodes are advisable to obtain a sufficient current density. In order to ensure a steady signal quality, be sure only to use CE marked electrodes.

Ensure that the thumb can move freely before applying NMT electrodes and sensor. Follow this procedure to place the electrodes and sensor:

1.

Place the distal electrode near the wrist.

2.

Place the proximal electrode 2 to 3 cm proximal of the distal electrode.

3.

Attach the red clamp to the proximal electrode.

4.

Attach the black clamp to the distal electrode.

5.

Affix the sensor with its large flat side against the palmar side of the thumb with a piece of tape. The cable should be attached in such a way that it does not 'pull' at the sensor and that movement of the thumb is not obstructed.

CAUTION

When placing the electrodes, make sure that they do not touch each other.

If the electrodes are placed incorrectly, wrong nerves are stimulated and this causes wrong muscle response.

When multiple nerves are stimulated, the measured response may be affected by activity of other muscles.

If the stimulation electrodes are placed very close to the palm of the hand, the muscles are stimulated directly by the stimulation pulses.

If the current is too strong, it may stimulate the muscles too much.

Moving or touching the patient during measurement may cause incorrect results.

Make sure that the NMT cables does not contact external pacemaker or catheter wires.

To avoid unintentional electrical shocks always make sure that the NMT stimulation has been stopped before touching the electrodes.

Take care to handle the NMT sensor, avoiding forcefully striking the sensor.

After repositioning the patient, check the NMT sensor application site and ensure that the sensor is still properly applied and the thumb can move freely.

BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 23 - 5

CAUTION

Correct positioning of the electrodes is important. Small displacements may result in considerable changes in stimulation current requirements. Furthermore, the electrodes must be positioned in such a way to avoid direct stimulation of the muscle.

The electrodes should be applied properly to the patient skin. It has been found that slight pressure on the electrodes may improve the stimulation considerably. Therefore, taping the electrodes to the skin may be advisable.

The more distal the sensor is placed on the thumb, the stronger the acceleration signal. This effect can be used to adjust the signal strength.

During NMT measurement, the arm applied with NMT electrodes and sensor should be kept immobile during the whole procedure.

23.8

Calibrating the NMT Measurement

The size of the sensor signal varies from patient to patient. NMT calibration determines supramaximal stimulation current and the reference response amplitude. The reference response amplitude is the twitch at the supramaximal stimulation current when the patient is not paralyzed. The calibration must be done prior to administration of a muscle relaxant drug.

CAUTION

Start calibration before the administration of a muscle relaxant drug (but after the induction of sleep in general anesthesia) to prevent voluntary muscle contraction and tension from interfering with the reference search.

23.8.1

Setting the Calibration Current

If you set Stimulation Current to Supra (60 mA) , the module automatically searches for supramaximal current to determine the reference response amplitude. If you select a value between 0 and 60 mA, the reference response amplitude is determined using the selected stimulation current. For adults, the supramaximal current is usually between 35 and 55 mA. For more information, see

23.11.2 Changing the Stimulation Current

4.

Press the calibration hard key on the NMT module or select Calibrate at the bottom of the NMT menu to start calibration.

If calibration succeeds, the message Calibration Completed displays on the NMT menu. If calibration failed, the

NMT module automatically uses the default value as the reference amplitude.

NOTE

It is recommended that the patient be anesthetized before setting up the calibration twitch as nerve stimulation can be painful.

Changing the stimulation current or pulse width after calibration invalidates the stored reference data, and therefore recalibration is required.

)

24.1

rSO

2

Introduction

The rSO

2

(Regional Oxygen Saturation) monitoring provides noninvasive and continuous information of changes in regional oxygen saturation of blood. The measurement takes place in real time, providing an immediate indication of a change in the critical balance of regional oxygen delivery and oxygen consumption.

The harmless, near-infrared wavelengths generated by the INVOS System’s light-emitting diodes pass through scalp and bone tissue beneath the sensor. Once in vivo they are either absorbed or scattered back up to the sensor’s shallow and deep detectors. Red-colored hemoglobin molecules within red blood cells have the highest light absorption of the wavelengths used, and the exact shade of red of each hemoglobin molecule indicates the amount of oxygen it is carrying. The type and quantity of absorption data returned to the detectors reflects deoxyhemoglobin and total hemoglobin, from which a regional oxygen saturation (% rSO

2

) value unique to the specific area under the sensor is calculated.

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

EWS is not intended for pediatric and neonatal patients.

The EWS scores and recommended actions are for reference only and cannot be directly used for diagnostic interpretation.

BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 26 - 1

EWS cannot be used as an prognosis index. It is not a clinical judgement tool. Clinicians must use their clinical judgement in conjunction with the EWS tool at all times.

MEWS and NEWS are intended for adult patients only. NEWS is not applicable to pregnant woman and COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease) patients.

NOTE

The EWS scores does not trigger any alarms and cannot used for continuous monitoring.

Calculation

27.1

Calculation Overview

The monitor provides calculation functions. The calculated values, which are not directly measured, are computed based on the values you provide. The calculation function is independent of other monitoring functions and can therefore be used for patients being monitored by other monitors. Any operation in a calculation dialog does not affect the patient monitored by the current monitor.

You can perform the following calculations:

Drug calculations

Hemodynamic calculations

Oxygenation calculations

Ventilation calculations

Renal calculations

27.2

Calculation Safety Information

WARNING

Decisions on the choice and dosage of drugs administered to patients must always be made by the physician in charge. The drug calculations are based on the values input; it does not check the plausibility of the calculation performed.

Check that the entered values are correct and the calculated values are appropriate. Mindray assumes no responsibility for any consequences caused by wrong entries and improper operations.

Network Safety Information

CAUTION

Wireless network designing, deploying, debugging, and maintenance should be executed by

Mindray service personnel or authorized technicians.

Always set the wireless network according to local wireless regulations.

Using 5G frequency band is recommended whenever possible. There are more interference sources in 2.4G frequency band.

Private APs and wireless routers are not allowed. These devices may cause radio interference and result in monitor and CMS data loss.

32 - 22 BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual

Data communication must be performed within a closed network or within a virtually isolated network provided by a hospital for all network functions. The hospital is responsible for ensuring the security of the virtually isolated network.

WPA2-PSK and WPA2-Enterprise verification and encryption should be used if possible. Otherwise, the equipment may not be able to work or patient information may be divulged. WPA2-Enterprise and a long password are recommended.

Keep network authentication information, for example passwords, safe, to protect the network from being accessed by unauthorized users.

Do not connect non-medical devices to the monitor network.

If wireless network signal is poor, there may be a risk of CMS-destined data loss.

Maximum number of monitors connected to a single AP is 16 for N17/N15/N12 or 12 for N22/N19.

Too many monitors connected to the same AP may result in network disconnection.

RF interference may result in wireless network disconnection.

Disconnecting from the network may result in CMS-destined data loss and function failure. Check the patient in case of network disconnection and solve the network problem as soon as possible.

Ensure that the monitor IP address setting is correct. Changing the network settings may result in network disconnection. Contact your service personnel if there are any problems with the IP address.

If the device remains in service following the end of support, the cybersecurity risks for end-users can be expected to increase over time.

Network disconnection does not have an impact on local monitoring functions.

The battery LED indications are as follows:

33 - 2 BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual

Green: the battery is fully charged.

Yellow: the battery is being charged.

Flashing green: the monitor is running on battery power.

Off: no battery is installed, or the battery malfunctioned, or the AC mains is not connected when the monitor is powered off.

33.4.2

Battery symbols

The on-screen battery symbols indicate the battery status as follows:

■ indicates that the battery is working correctly. The green portion represents the remaining charge.

indicates that the battery power is low and needs to be charged.

indicates that the battery is almost depleted and needs to be charged immediately. Otherwise, the monitor will automatically shut down soon.

indicates that the battery is being charged.

indicates that no battery is installed or the battery has failed.

33.4.3

Battery-related Alarms

The capacity of the battery is limited. When the battery level is low, the monitor presents the Low Battery alarm, the alarm lamp flashes, and the monitor produces an alarm sound.

If the battery is almost depleted, the monitor presents the Critically Low Battery alarm. In this case, immediately connect the AC mains to power the monitor and charge the battery. Otherwise, the monitor will automatically shut down soon.

For N22/N19, 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 lifetime.

For more information on battery-related alarms, see Appendix D Alarm Messages .

33.5

Charging the Battery

The battery is recharged automatically when the monitor is connected to AC mains power.

33.6

Maintaining the Battery

33.6.1

Conditioning the Battery

The performance of batteries deteriorates over time. For N22/N19, you should condition the batteries periodically or when you notice a degradation in performance. 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.

BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual 33 - 3

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.

33.6.2

Checking Battery Performance

The performance of a rechargeable battery deteriorates over time. You should check the battery performance periodically or if you are concerned that the battery may fail.

See steps 1 to 5 of 33.6.1 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.

33.7

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.

Condition the stored batteries every three months. For more information, see 33.6.1 Conditioning the Battery .

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.

33.8

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 service life is reached.

Properly dispose of batteries according to local regulations.

WARNING

Do not open batteries, heat batteries above 60 °C, incinerate batteries, or short the battery terminals. They may ignite, explode, leak or heat up, causing personal injury.

Wi-Fi Performance Specifications

WARNING

All network functions of data communication are designed to operate on a private network.

A.12.3.1

System Capacity

Number of the monitors supported by a single AP: ≤ 12 (for N22/N19) or ≤ 16 (for N17/N15/N12).

Testing conditions are as follows:

Each monitor can communicate with the CMS.

Two monitors are used to view other monitors.

Only one monitor can transmit history data.

The weakest strength of the AP signal where the monitor is located cannot be less than -65 dBm.

A.12.3.2

Resistance to Wireless Interference

The distance between the interfering devices and the monitor is greater than 20 cm. A Wi-Fi interference (no greater than -85 dBm) in the same channel and a Wi-Fi interference (no greater than -50 dBm) in an adjacentchannel are presented synchronously. The interfering devices include, but are not limited to, 2.4 GHz wireless devices, cellular mobile networks, microwave ovens, intercoms, cordless phones, and ESU equipment. The interfering devices do not include Wi-Fi devices.

The monitoring network must support the following requirements:

All the monitors do not encounter communication loss.

The total delay of data transmission from the monitor to the CMS: ≤ 2 seconds.

The delay for monitor-related settings configured at the CMS to be effective: ≤ 2 seconds.

The total delay of data transmission from one monitor to the other: ≤ 2 seconds.

The delay for the monitor to reset alarms of another to be effective: ≤ 2 seconds.

A - 8 BeneVision N22/N19/N17/N15/N12 Patient Monitor Operator’s Manual

NOTE

When the monitor works at 2.4G, the most serious interference source is other 2.4G Wi-Fi devices not sharing the same network with the monitor and LTE devices. When the monitor works at 5G, the most serious interference source is other 5G Wi-Fi devices not sharing the same network with the monitor.

To make sure that the monitor works well, the separation distance between the monitor and unintended interference device or the distance between the AP and interference devices should be greater than the distance listed below:

Wi-Fi Network Stability

The ratio of the communication data loss on the CMS from any monitor does not exceed 0.1% over a 24-hour period.

Testing conditions are as follows:

Number of the monitors supported by a single AP: ≤ 12 (for N22/N19) or ≤ 16 (for N17/N15/N12).

For N17/N15/N12, 12 of the 16 monitors connected to the network roam for 30 times

Each monitor can communicate with the CMS.

Two monitors are used to view other monitors.

Only one monitor can transmit history data.

The weakest strength of the AP signal where the monitor is located cannot be less than -65 dBm.

The Masimo pulse oximeter with sensors have been validated for no motion accuracy in human blood studies on healthy adult volunteers in induced hypoxia studies in the range of 70% to 100% SpO2 against a laboratory co-oximeter and ECG monitor. This variation equals plus or minus one standard deviation. Plus or minus one standard deviation encompasses

68% of the population. One percent was added to the accuracies for neonatal sensors to account for accuracy variation due to properties of fetal hemoglobin.

The Masimo pulse oximeter with sensors has been validated for motion accuracy in human blood studies on healthy adult volunteers in induced hypoxia studies while performing rubbing and tapping motions at 2 to 4 Hz. At an amplitude of 1 to

2 cm and non-repetitive motion between 1 to 5 Hz. At an amplitude of 2 to 3 cm in induced hypoxia studies in the range of

70% to 100% SpO2 against a laboratory co-oximeter and ECG monitor. This variation equals plus or minus one standard deviation. Plus or minus one standard deviation encompasses 68% of the population.

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.

a

: The ISM (industrial, scientific, and medical) bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz are 6.765 MHz to 6.795 MHz; 13.553 MHz to 13.567 MHz; 26.957 MHz to 27.283 MHz; and 40.66 MHz to 40.70 MHz.

b

: 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 ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM is used exceeds the applicable

RF compliance level above, the ME EQUIPMENT or ME SYSTEM should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as re-orienting or relocating the ME EQUIPMENT or

ME SYSTEM .

c

: Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3V/m.

WARNING

The device is configured with a wireless network connector to receive wireless signal. Other devices may interfere with this device even though they meet the requirements of CISPR.
