Operator’s Manual
1
Introduction
This manual provides the necessary information for installing, maintaining, and operating
the Olympic CFM 6000 and the Olympic CFM cart. Olympic CFM 6000 is a cerebral
function monitor (CFM) that monitors the state of the brain by acquiring an EEG signal
and passing it through a special algorithm to display a continuous view of global
electrocortical activity. It is suited for use in the NICU, ICU, PICU, emergency room,
operating room, and clinical research laboratory.
The CFM 6000 should be used only under the direct supervision of a licensed medical
practitioner who is trained in its operation and safe use.
Indications for Use
The Olympic CFM 6000 is intended to be used by a variety of clinicians for the acquisition
of electroencephalography (EEG) signals that can be used in conjunction with other
clinical data to:
Monitor the state of the brain.
Determine and monitor long-term the neurological status of patients who may have
suffered an hypoxic-ischemic event.
Assist in the clinical management and treatment of a patient by monitoring
neurological status to indicate how the treatment affects the neurological status.
Assist in the prediction of neurological outcome.
Monitor and record frequency and intensity of seizures to assist in the management of
anticonvulsive therapy.
Assist in the prediction of the severity of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) and
the long-term outcome in infants who have suffered an hypoxic-ischemic event.
