4.6.14.1 Recommendations for using the MASIMO IRMA CO2 measurement probe
•
The IRMA ™ probe may only be used by qualified, authorized medical personnel.
• The mainstream IRMA
™
multi-gas probe is intended to be connected to a patient circuit to monitor
the gases inhaled/exhaled by adult or pediatric patients in emergency or intensive care situations.
• The probe must not be the sole patient monitoring device. It must always be used with other de-
vices to monitor vital signs and/or in addition to medical advice given by a qualified person.
• The probe must not be in direct contact with the patient.
•
The IRMA ™ probe must not be used with flammable anesthetic agents.
•
IRMA ™ adapters are a single-use product and must not be re-used for different patients. Used
adapters must be disposed of via the appropriate hospital waste disposal channels. Reusing sin-
gle-use adapters can lead to patient cross-contamination.
• Do not use adapters for adult patients or children on infants, as this carries the risk of adding dead
space.
• Do not use adapters for infants on adult patients or children, as this carries the risk of increasing
resistance.
• The IRMA ™ probe can give poor-quality measurements in the presence of devices that emit elec-
tromagnetic interference exceeding the levels mentioned in Standard 60601-1-2. Ensure that it is
used in a suitable environment.
• Only Air Liquide Medical Systems adapters may be used with the IRMA
™
probe.
CAUTION: Use only IRMA
™
probes sold by Air Liquide Medical Systems: Cat. No. KB020400.
•
Do not connect the IRMA ™ at the outlet of an elbow connector, in order to avoid an accumulation
of patient secretions in the adapter and the obstruction of XTP ™ windows.
•
When using the IRMA ™ probe, place the adapter so that its XTP ™ windows are vertical, to avoid an
accumulation of patient secretions on these windows:
• When using the IRMA ™ probe, position the adapter so that moisture and secretions do not accumu-
late inside it due to the effect of gravity.
• Replace the adapter if humidity is observed on the inside.
•
Do not use the IRMA ™ airway adapter with nebulized medications as this may affect the light trans-
mission of the airway adapter windows.
• If the calibration is not done properly, the measurement values will be skewed.
•
Never sterilize the IRMA ™ probe or immerse it in liquid.
• Do not pull on the cable of the IRMA ™ probe.
