Precautions
See sections “Electro surgery” and “General Electrical Safety” for general precautions regarding device
operation.
Ventilation and Anesthesia Devices
The bedside monitor uses the airway pressure (Paw) and the ventilation (Vent) parameter boxes and
waveform channels to display ventilation parameter values, waveforms, and loops. Parameter values
acquired from the ventilator are trended in graphical and tabular form.
The ventilator provides the range and resolution for all parameters. Parameter settings, alarms, and error
messages do not display on the bedside monitor; they are displayed on the network device instead.
CAUTION
– Data transferred using the MEDIBUS protocol or MEDIBUS.X protocol is for information only and
is not intended as a basis for diagnostic or therapeutic decisions. Always refer to the primary data
source for these decisions.
– Connecting peripheral devices is supported via the device connection option's RS232 connection.
Only connect peripheral medical devices to a patient monitor if those devices comply with the
electrical safety requirements found in IEC 60601-1. Refer to the Electrical Safety section for
information on how to connect devices safely.
NOTE
– The MIB II option will not work if a network cable is connected to it. Likewise the MIB II duo protocol
converter will not work if it is connected to an IDS network connector.
– An RJ-45 cable can plug into the MIB II duo protocol converter's X6 connector (MIB I output);
however, this cable cannot be removed if it locks into place (the protocol converter is unusable and
must be returned for service if this occurs). Only remove the label that covers the X6 connector if
the protocol converter is to be operated in MIB I mode.
NOTE
Refer to the instructions for use of the source
device for detailed information on external
parameters.
Refer to the instructions for use for your network
devices such as an Infinity CentralStation,
Innovian, Gateway, or Symphony for a list of
parameters transferred from the ventilator.
Refer to the "Atlan, Primus, Zeus, Apollo, and
Perseus Anesthesia Devices" section for detailed
information on those anesthesia devices, which
also provide gas monitoring.
