12 The Ventilator must be plugged into a suitably rated and grounded electrical
power source.
13 There is no special protection provided against ingress of water or liquids.
14 The equipment is not suitable for use with, or in the presence of flammable
anaesthetic mixtures.
15 Use only SLE approved patient circuits. On no account should antistatic or
electrically conductive tubing be used in the patient circuit.
16 No external voltage should be applied to the auxiliary socket. Any connections to
this socket must be approved by SLE and screened to comply with EMC
regulations. Ensure protection cap is fitted when socket is not in use.
17 The electronic module of the ventilator contains a primary battery for mains
failure alarm, if the ventilator is not to be used for 3 months or more, then the
battery should be removed.
18 Care should be taken when attaching other equipment as this may affect
stability.
19 When using nebulizers and other delivery systems e.g. NO with the ventilator in
High Alarm or gas leak condition, the patient can receive inaccurate mixtures.
20 If the SLE 2000 Infant Ventilator is adversely affected by equipment emitting
electromagnetic interference then that equipment should be switched off or
removed from the vicinity of the 2000. Conversely, if the 2000 is the source of
such interference to neighbouring equipment then it should be switched off or
taken to another location.
4.2 Clinical Warnings
Failure to take corrective action when alarms function could result in injury or death to
the patient.
There are risks inherent in the use of mechanical ventilation in the newborn and
during infancy and childhood. These may include:
1 Under- or over-ventilation (with consequent abnormalities in blood gases).
2 Incorrect humidification.
3 Intracranial haemorrhage, cerebral ischaemia.
4 Chronic lung disease (bronchopulmonary dysplasia in the newborn).
5 Damage to trachea and bronchi.
6 Over- or under-inflation of the lung.
7 Atalectasis.
8 Air leak syndrome (pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, pneumopericardium.
pulmonary interstitial emphysema).
