Operation
Operator must wear disposable single-use gloves when operating and handling unit.
Prior to each use, inspect collection container and tubing for cracks or leaks, and replace all damaged accessories immediately. Do not use device if
accessories are damaged.
Place the machine on a flat and stable surface. WARNING: Inspect AC adapter and power cord. If either are damaged, do not use.
Place the collection container securely into the collection container holder and into the coaster cut-out.
Connect the filter into the inlet, ensuring that the “
FLUID SIDE” is facing upwards
. Connect one end of the intermediate tubing to the filter on the
“
FLUID SIDE”.
Connect the other end of the intermediate tubing to the “vacuum port” on collection container lid.
Connect one end of suction tubing to the “patient port” on the collection container lid.
Check all connections and make sure they are secure and tight. A poor connection could result in an air leak that diminishes pump performance.
Turn the power switch on.
Adjust the unit to its desired suction level before beginning patient suction.
a. Create a vacuum by completely blocking the open end of the suction tubing.
b. Adjust the vacuum regulator knob until the vacuum gauge displays the desired vacuum level.
c. As long as the open end of the suction tubing remains completely blocked, the vacuum level should remain steady.
Expert recommendations for vacuum settings during airway suctioning:
(
AARC and Respiratory Care Journal, September 2004, Vol. 49, No 9, p1080)
Adult: 100-150 mmHg
Child: 80-120 mmHg
Infant: 60-100 mmHg
Once unit is set to the desired vacuum pressure, attach a disposable suction catheter to the open end of the suction tubing.
Proceed with suctioning as instructed by your healthcare professional. Remove suction catheter from patient immediately after suctioning.
After each use, turn off the power switch. Unplug the unit if not charging battery. Clean the unit and accessories as instructed in the “Cleaning”
section found on page 11 of this manual.
