DIH 0300 B – USER GUIDE REANIBEX 300 2
1 INTRODUCTION
In the Manual Defibrillator mode, the defibrillation discharge may be applied using multifunction
disposable electrodes. Access to this operating mode may be restricted via the configuration options.
When operating in Automated Defibrillator mode, the REANIBEX 300 analyses the patient’s
electrocardiogram (ECG) and decides whether the rhythm analysed can be shockable. If so, the user
must take action to administer the discharge. Throughout the process, the equipment guides the user
through all operations by means of text messages displayed on the screen and audible instructions
provided by a loudspeaker located on the right side of the device. In AED mode, the REANIBEX 300 can
also be configured to record the audio generated during the incident.
The REANIBEX 300 can operate with rechargeable Li-ion batteries or with disposable LiSO
2
batteries.
Remaining battery power is shown at all times at the top of the device screen. Rechargeable batteries are
charged using an external charger with the battery removed from the device.
The REANIBEX 300 has an internal memory that stores the data from the last 10 patient interventions
performed by the equipment. These data include patient ECG signals and the events that occurred during
the intervention. Optionally, they can include audio of the equipment and ambient noise if the equipments
operating in Automated Defibrillator mode. In addition to these data, the equipment stores the last 100
tests performed at the request of the user or during an Auto Test. All this information can be downloaded,
viewed and stored using the “REANIBEX DATA MANAGER” PC application.
In addition to the patient-related operating modes described above, the REANIBEX 300 has a special
switch-on function that accesses the Configuration mode. This mode is used to configure and adjust the
parameters that control the operation of the equipment to the requirements of the various users and to
perform various Manual Tests at user request.
During start-up and operation, the REANIBEX 300 performs a series of Auto Tests to detect any failures
or anomalous conditions in the equipment that may compromise safe operation. Errors are indicated
through a status indicator located at the front of the device. This indicator is active whether the device is
switched on or off and shows error messages on the screen when the equipment is switched on.
Lastly, the REANIBEX 300 performs automatic daily, weekly and monthly tests, as well as Auto Tests
each time it detects a new battery. Therefore, apart from the tests performed during operation and when
the device is switched on, the device performs the following Auto Tests.
x
Battery Insertion Auto Test
x
Daily Auto Test; this test is performed every day between the time programmed in the
Configuration mode and the following hour.
x
Weekly Auto Test; this test is performed once a week and includes the Auto Test of the day in
question.
x
Monthly Auto Test; this verification is carried out once a month and includes the weekly and daily
Auto Tests.
