VII. ALARMS
The Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System safety
system continually monitors the state of the device and the
patient, and issues alarms to notify the user of conditions that
may interfere with patient safety or system performance.
Main Safety Alarms
While there are multiple alarms and safety features in the
Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System, there are five
main safety alarms that will place the device into Stop mode
until the condition is addressed.
Alarm
Specification
High Patient
Temperature
39.5°C (103.1°F)
Low Patient Temperature
31.0°C (87.8°F)
High Water Temperature
42.5°C / 44°C (108.5°F /
111.2°F)
Low Water Temperature
3.0°C / 3.5°C (37.4°F / 38.3°F)
System Self-Test Failure
At device Power On
Each time the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System
is Powered On, a system self-test for the independent safety
alarm is automatically run. This test simulates a “water high
temperature” fault situation on both the primary and secondary
water temperature sensors. Both the primary and secondary
safety systems must respond to the fault and be verified by the
opposing safety system. If either safety systems do not
respond appropriately either an alarm 80 or 81 will be issued.
Contact BD Customer Support.
If power is unexpectedly lost, the device will beep to notify the
user. Upon restoration of power, the device will issue alarm 45.
There are two types of conditions:
Medium Priority
Alarms
and
Low Priority Alarms
.
A
Medium Priority Alarm
notifies the
user a condition that may potentially pose
discomfort or reversible injury to the
patient requires operator response.
Failure to respond may result in
irreversible injury or death.
Note:
The system and any ongoing
therapy will be placed in Stop mode.
MEDIUM PRIORITY ALARMS
A Medium Priority Alarm is denoted by an audio signal that
repeats every 10 to 15 seconds until the Alarm is cleared. The
yellow Alarm screen will appear that displays the alarm
number, alarm title, a description of the problem or conditions
that triggered the alarm, and solutions and instructions for
troubleshooting and resolving the alarm condition. If certain
Alarm conditions are not acknowledged by the operator within
2 minutes, a Reminder tone will sound. All Alarm settings are
maintained in the event of a power interruption.
Non-Recoverable Alarms
If an Alarm condition occurs that prevents proper use of the
device or proper patient treatment (such as the five main safety
alarms discussed above), the system is placed into Stop mode
and will not allow therapy to continue. This type of Alarm is
known as Non-Recoverable. If this situation occurs, cycle the
device power (turn device Off then On). If the alarm recurs
contact BD Customer Support.
Recoverable Alarms
Other Alarms that temporarily Stop the device until the user is
able to correct the cause and clear the Alarm are classified as
Recoverable. If the condition that initiated the alarm is not
addressed and problem persists, the Alarm will recur.
If a Recoverable Alarm occurs:
•
When an alarm is issued the device is placed into Stop
mode.
•
Read the displayed instructions.
•
Note the Alarm number.
•
Press the Close button to clear the alarm.
•
Follow the instructions to correct the alarm condition.
Perform the actions in the order listed until the alarm
condition is resolved.
•
Once you have cleared the alarm, press the Start button in
the therapy window to restart therapy. You will hear a tone
and a voice stating “Therapy Started”.
If the condition does not resolve, contact BD Customer
Support.
A
Low Priority Alarm
notifies the user a
condition that may potentially pose
discomfort or reversible injury to the
patient requires operator response.
LOW PRIORITY ALARMS
A Low Priority Alarm is denoted by an audio signal that repeats
every 25 to 30 seconds. The blue Alarm screen will appear that
displays the alarm number, alarm title, a description of the
problem that triggered the alarm, and solutions and instructions
for troubleshooting and resolving the alarm condition.
If a Low Priority Alarm occurs:
•
Read the displayed instructions.
•
Note the Alarm number.
•
Press the Close button to clear the alarm.
•
Follow the instructions to correct the alarm condition.
Perform the actions in the order listed until the alarm
condition is resolved. If the condition does not resolve,
contact BD Customer Support.
NOTES:
Refer to
Appendix C–Alarm Information
for more
information on the Alarm number.
If the condition that initiated the alarm is not addressed and the
problem persists, the Alarm will recur and/or escalate.
To view alarms, the operator should stand in front of the Arctic
Sun™ Temperature Management System display screen.
