2-4 MIRUS Controller, SW 2.03.02, Additional Information Master (en-GB)
The MIRUS Controller is equipped with a gas monitor in accordance with EN ISO 80601-2-55.
This gas monitor is designed for the device-specific volatile anaesthetic. If an additional volatile
anaesthetic is utilised during use of the MIRUS Controller, this can lead to falsified
measurements of the etVA concentration. These may pose a risk to the patient.
Do not feed any additional volatile anaesthetic through the ventilation system
connected to the MIRUS Controller.
While using the MIRUS Controller, do not change the type of volatile anaesthetic.
Allowing volatile anaesthetics to accumulate in the environment around the patient can put
persons at risk.
If the patient’s ventilation tube system needs to be removed, halt the delivery of volatile
anaesthetic.
Fill the reservoir as described in Chapter 4.5 or 5.1.5.
Drain the reservoir as described in Chapter 6.3.
