Overview
This chapter explains the installation, operation, and maintenance of the Hospital
Monitor Interface Accessory (HMIA).
The sole function of the HMIA module is to simulate the patient temperature
probe connected to the T1 port on the front of the System. Connection of the
HMIA to a hospital temperature monitor using one of the Alsius custom cables,
will permit the display of an identical patient temperature on both the System and
the hospital temperature monitor, while using only a single patient temperature
probe.
WARNING:
The HMIA is not a replacement for the T2 Temperature probe on the System.
It simply simulates the T1 Temperature probe. Use of the HMIA does not
obviate the need for a second patient temperature monitoring method. Failure
to use a second patient temperature monitoring method can result in injury to
the patient in the event of a T1 Temperature Probe failure.
Operating the HMIA
Connecting to the Hospital Monitor
The HMIA simulates a standard YSI 400 temperature sensor, such as in a patient
temperature sensing Foley catheter or rectal probe.
The HMIA is connected to a hospital monitor via an Alsius custom interface
cable included with the HMIA. These cables have connectors that are identical to
the connectors of Foley and rectal patient temperature probes.
One end of the Alsius interface cable plugs directly into the standard patient
cable of the hospital monitor. In this way, the hospital monitor connects to the
HMIA interface cable in the same fashion as it would connect to a Foley or rectal
temperature probe. (See Figure 1).
