SAFETY
NCCD is only to be used by trained personnel with competence
in CPR and with experience in handling of pressurised gas.
Incorrect use may cause injury to the patient and user.
Use of NCCD can increase ppO
2
and atmospheric pressure in
closed systems.
Do not use oxygen (>22%), or gas mixture with a O
2
content
over 22% as supply gas.
Make sure not to stretch or pull hoses [6+7] to and from the
hand control unit [4].
Do not compress the hand control unit [4
-
5] while connecting
gas. The NCCD piston foot [3] can move and cause a pinching
hazard. Apply NCCD before gas is connected.
Incorrect positioning will reduce quality of compressions and
may cause injury to the patient.
MALFUNCTION
If proper application and use of NCCD is not possible,
start manual CPR immediately.
Recommended checks and actions when possible:
1. Verify 10 bar supply pressure.
2. Check unit for damage or loose couplings.
3. Tell us about your experience: [email protected]
Please include NCCD serial number (SN08
…..),
found
on the back of the piston house [1], with correspondence.
