7. If you plan to use the patient control mode, verify that the incubator has warmed
up to the Desired Environmental Temperature. Then press the Enable switch
followed by the Patient Control switch:
a. The patient control and the enable indicators illuminate.
b. The control temperature display flashes “36.5°C” and an operator prompt tone
sounds every two seconds. The alarm will continue to sound until you enter a
control temperature. The heater will not operate unless a control temperature is
entered.
Note: When patient control mode operation first begins, a patient temperature
alarm may trigger. Silence the alarm and attend the patient. This alarm triggers
normally if the patient probe temperature differs from the control temperature
by more than 1.0°C. If the probe temperature is below 30.0°C or above 42.0°C,
the heater will not switch On.
Responding to alarms
WARNINGS Excessive EMI levels in the hospital environment can trigger the system
failure alarm. Note the error code and switch off the unit. Wait ten seconds
and switch the unit back on. If the system failure alarm recurs, remove the
incubator from use.
If an alarm is silenced, closely monitor the patient.
Note: Refer to the troubleshooting section in Chapter 7 for problems that do not
involve an alarm indicator.
Many things can trigger alarms. For example: a patient’s condition may change; a
patient probe may detach; or a change in the control temperature may increase the
difference between the control temperature and the monitored temperature (air or
patient) to an unacceptable level.
If an alarm triggers:
• Evaluate the patient
Attend the infant.
• Identify the alarm
Check the indicators to identify the active alarm. When two or more alarms are
active, their respective indicators illuminate. If an indicator illuminates, look the
alarm up alphabetically in this section. If two or more alarms have been triggered,
the audio signal sounds for the highest priority alarm.
• Silencing the alarm
If desired, silence the alarm. At the end of the silence period the audio alarm
reactivates unless the alarm condition has been resolved. The length of the alarm
silence period depends on the alarm. Power failure and system failure alarms
cannot be silenced.
Another alarm prematurely ends the alarm silence period.
