Instructions for use Carina SW 3.2n
For your safety and that of your patients
WARNING Risk of patient injury
WARNING Risk of patient injury
If patients are dependent on ventilation, one of the following parameters must be monitored: – Expiratory tidal volume – Expiratory minute volume – End-tidal expiratory CO2 concentration
Because of the restricted monitoring functions (no internal monitoring of the expiratory minute volume), the device may not detect a disconnection of the breathing hose or the pilot line. This can occur particularly with low PEEP values and the use of filters with high resistance.
If no patient monitoring is implemented, no alarm will be generated in case of insufficient patient ventilation. Use suitable external monitors. WARNING Risk of increased CO2 rebreathing If a breathing circuit with a leakage valve is used, the flushing out of CO2 may be reduced, e.g., by the accumulation of secretions in the leakage valve, without being noticed. Check the leakage valves regularly and replace them if necessary. Use suitable patient monitoring (capnography) to detect increased CO2 rebreathing. WARNING Risk of patient injury If the inspiratory oxygen concentration differs from the ambient air concentration, monitoring of the inspiratory oxygen concentration with adjustable high and low alarm limits is needed. Connect an external oxygen monitor complying with ISO 21647 or ISO 80601-2-55 to the breathing circuit. Otherwise no alarm will be generated if the actual inspiratory oxygen concentration differs from the set oxygen concentration.
Instructions for use Carina SW 3.2n
Only use the filters listed in the current list of accessories. CAUTION Risk of patient injury The device can apply a maximum of 120 L/min of pure oxygen. If a high O2 concentration with a ventilation flow above 120 L/min is set, this O2 concentration may not be reached. Use external O2 monitoring or reduce leakage. CAUTION Risk of overheating of the medical device Sources of heat such as direct sunlight, radiant heaters, or spotlights may cause the medical device to overheat. Keep the medical device away from heat sources. Only use the medical device in adequately ventilated rooms. CAUTION Risk of toppling over Do not tilt the device more than 15° while in use to ensure that it cannot topple over. When the device is on the trolley, do not tilt the trolley more than 10°.
13
For your safety and that of your patients
CAUTION Risk of electric shock
Backup ventilation with an independent manual ventilation device
If a faulty device without safety extra-low voltage (SELV) is connected to the medical device, there is a risk of electric shock from the housing of the medical device.
WARNING Risk of patient injury
Only connect devices with safety extra-low voltage (SELV) to the connections for the serial port and the nurse call.
Monitoring ventilation
If a fault is detected in the medical device, its life-support functions may no longer be assured. Ventilation of the patient using an independent ventilation device must be started without delay, if necessary with PEEP and/or an increased inspiratory O2 concentration (e.g., with a manual resuscitator).
The built-in monitoring facilities monitor the following parameters: – Airway pressure – Inspiratory minute volume – Applied minute volume (without leakage compensation) – Apnea alarm time – Disconnection time – Mean airway pressure – Respiratory rate – Leakage minute volume Changes in these parameters may be caused by: – Acute changes in the patient's condition – Incorrect settings and faulty handling – Device malfunctions – Failure of power and gas supplies If the built-in monitoring fails, use substitute monitoring.
