Troubleshooting
NOTE: Always check the patient’s condition first in problematic situations or if an alarm is triggered. See also section “Messages." Also note that if the
measurement or function does not appear on the screen, check module connections.
PROBLEM RELATED TO:
CAUSE
WHAT TO DO
Airway gases
Airway gas values are too low
•
Check the sampling line and connectors for leakage.
Extra arrhythmia are detected
The morphology of the ECG signal has changed.
•
Start relearning manually through
ECG
-
Relearn
.
Arrhythmia
Extra Ventricular Fibrillations are
detected
Patient's medical condition.
•
Check the patient.
Low amplitude signal in some ECG leads.
•
Leads I and II: Select the one with the largest amplitude to ECG1.
•
Leads C1-C6 (V1-V6): Select the one with the largest amplitude to
ECG2.
•
After selecting the leads, start relearning manually.
Batteries
Battery operation time is markedly
shortened
•
Condition batteries (see section “Conditioning the batteries”).
ECG
ECG signal is noisy or no QRS is
detected
•
Ensure that the patient is not shivering.
•
Select the correct filter by pressing
ECG
and selecting
ECG Setup - Filter.
•
Check the electrode quality and positioning. Do not place them on body
hair, bones close to skin, layers of fat and major muscles. Pre-gelled
electrodes are recommended.
•
Change the lead.
•
Remove the ECG cable from the module and reinsert it.
Impedance
respiration
Respiration measurement fails
•
Check electrode quality and positioning.
•
Adjust the detection limits. During ventilator-supported breathing, the
respiration calculation may count only ventilator-produced inspirations
and expirations.
•
Other electrical devices may interfere with the measurement.
