Display and user controls The INOmax® DSIR has a color touch screen display and a control wheel for adjusting and entering user settings. The buttons on the touch screen and the control wheel perform a variety of functions using a threestep procedure (see “Setting and making changes on the INOmax DSIR”). Note:

If a button has been selected and no activity has been sensed within 20 seconds, the display will return to its previous condition. If a button is de-emphasized (grayed out), it is not accessible.

When a value is being changed, pressing the "Cancel Active Status" button during editing will stop the change and return the parameter to its original value (similar to the escape key on a computer).

Dose settings The range of NO dose settings is dependent on the cylinder concentration of INOMAX® (nitric oxide) that the unit has been configured for. The INOmax DSIR can be configured by the distributor for cylinder concentrations of 400 or 800 ppm. If configured for 400 ppm the range of NO dose setting is 0 to 40 ppm and if set up for 800 ppm the range is 0 to 80 ppm, see below. 400 ppm

800 ppm

Each click on the control knob corresponds to a known change in dose. The incremental dose per click corresponds to a value dependent upon the dose range in which the change is made, as illustrated in the table below. Dose Setting Range < 1 ppm 1 to 40 ppm 40 to 80 ppm

Dose Change Per Click 400 ppm 0.1 ppm 1 ppm NA

Infrared Communication between the INOMAX® Cylinders and the INOmax® DSIR The INOmax DSIR has an interface using infrared technology which will allow the INOmax DSIR to communicate with the INOmeter® (which is mounted to each INOMAX cylinder). The INOmax DSIR checks the INOMAX cylinder for the correct expiration date and cylinder concentration. The INOmax DSIR also transmits a confirmed patient identifier and dose settings to the INOmeter on any open INOMAX cylinder. The INOmax DSIR cart (PN 10018) has a cover ( 1 ) with an infrared transceiver mounted directly above each INOMAX cylinder. When INOMAX cylinders are loaded, communication will take place between the INOmax DSIR and the INOmeter ( 2 ) (after the boot up phase of the INOmax DSIR is complete). A cylinder icon will be displayed on the main screen when an INOMAX cylinder is recognized by the INOmax DSIR (see “Loading INOMAX Cylinders onto the INOmax DSIR Cart”, page 10).

Theory of Operation The INOmax® DSIR provides a constant dose of INOMAX® into the inspiratory limb of the ventilator circuit. The INOmax DSIR uses a “dual-channel” design to ensure the safe delivery of INOMAX. The first channel has the delivery CPU, the flow controller and the injector module to ensure the accurate delivery of NO. The second channel is the monitoring system, which includes a separate monitor CPU, the gas sensors (NO, NO2, and O2 sensors) and the user interface, including the display and alarms. The dualchannel approach to delivery and monitoring permits INOMAX delivery independent of monitoring. This allows the monitoring system to shutdown INOMAX delivery, if it detects a fault in the delivery system. For example, INOMAX delivery will shut down should the monitored NO concentration become greater than 100 ppm. (See Figure 1-5 for a schematic diagram).

6. A flow sensor inside the INOmax DSIR also monitors the NO flow out of the machine. A check valve is included prior to the INOmax DSIR drug outlet to prevent pressure effects from the ventilator breathing circuit interfering with the NO flow sensor reading. 7. Gas Monitoring - The INOmax DSIR gas monitoring system provides monitored values for inspired NO, NO2, and O2. The sample gas is withdrawn from the breathing circuit and goes through a water trap, a zero valve, a sample pump and finally a sample flow sensor to the gas monitoring sensors. • The zero valve allows the gas sensors to be zeroed (during low calibration) without having to disconnect the sample line from the breathing circuit.

1. INOMAX drug is stored as a gas mixture of NO/N2 in an aluminum cylinder at a concentration of 400 or 800 ppm depending on territory.

• The pump and sample flow sensor ensure a sample gas flow rate is maintained to the monitoring sensors.

2. The cylinder is attached to a high pressure regulator, which incorporates a pressure gauge that indicates cylinder pressure when the cylinder valve is open. The cylinder regulator is attached via tubing to the INOmax DSIR using one of the two NO/ N2 quick connect inlets on the back of the machine.

• The gas monitoring sensors are electrochemical; they are specific to each gas and provide an electronic signal which is proportional to the concentration of the gas present.

3. The INOmax DSIR checks the INOMAX cylinder for the correct expiration date and cylinder concentration.

8. Backup Delivery - If the delivery system does go into shut down, the INOmax DSIR has an integrated backup function which provides a fixed flow of INOMAX (250 mL/min) into the injector module using a pneumatic on/off switch and a restrictor built into the delivery side of the system. This fixed flow of INOMAX will provide 20 ppm of NO when using 800 ppm cylinders (10 ppm when using 400 ppm cylinders) when added to a continuous ventilator gas flow is 10 L/min. The backup is only for short term use until a replacement delivery system can be obtained. An alarm will warn the user if the backup system is turned on while the main delivery system is in use for INOMAX delivery. The INOblender can also be used as a backup.

4. The INOMAX enters the back of the INOmax DSIR, passes through a filter, then a safety shutoff valve, which is open under normal operation. 5. An injector module is placed in the ventilator gas flow between the ventilator inspiratory outlet and the humidifier. Based on the ventilator flow, the INOMAX cylinder concentration and set INOMAX dose, the proportional solenoid valve delivers INOMAX into the ventilator circuit via the injector module. This allows the INOmax DSIR to deliver a constant dose of INOMAX regardless of the ventilator flow pattern or breath rate (see Figure 1-7).

Effect of the INOmax® DSIR in a ventilator circuit There are two main effects of connecting and using the INOmax DSIR in a ventilator breathing circuit.

Minute Volume When using volume ventilation with the INOmax DSIR, the measured tidal volume delivered to the patient shows small changes depending on the NO setting being used due to the addition and subtraction of gases by the delivery system. Some minor ventilator adjustments to the minute volume may be required. The net result of the INOmax DSIR on the delivered minute ventilation can be calculated as follows:

• First, the INOmax DSIR adds NO/N2 gas to the breathing circuit in proportion to the NO setting and the ventilator flow rate. For example, at the maximum NO setting (80 ppm with 800 ppm cylinders and 40 ppm with 400 ppm cylinders) the INOmax DSIR adds 10% more gas to that delivered by the ventilator and proportionally less for lower NO settings.

If the patient’s minute ventilation is 10 L/min (500 cc X 20 breaths/min)

• Second, the INOmax DSIR subtracts gas from the breathing circuit via the gas sampling system at a nominal flow rate of 0.23 L/min.

The additional minute volume due to the INOMAX can be calculated as follows:

These two effects of adding and subtracting gas from the ventilator breathing circuit have the following effects:

INOMAX dose x Minute Volume Additional INOMAX volume = added per minute Cylinder Concentration -- INOMAX Dose

Oxygen Dilution

For a dose of 20 ppm (800 ppm cylinder) the additional volume would be (20 X 10 / 800 – 20) = 0.25 L/min

The INOmax DSIR adds gas to the breathing circuit in proportion to the NO setting as described above. The NO/N2 mixture added to the ventilator gas dilutes the oxygen in proportion to the set INOMAX® dose. At the maximum INOMAX dose setting (40 ppm or 80 ppm) the added gas is 10%. Thus, the O2 concentration is reduced by 10% of its original value. For example, if the original O2 concentration was 50% v/v, then the O2 value after injection, at the maximum setting is 45% v/v. Set Dose (ppm) 800 ppm cylinder 80 40 20

Set Dose (ppm) 400 ppm cylinder 40 20 10

Part No. 20110 Rev - 01

To calculate the net change in minute volume: 0.25 L/min INOMAX added - 0.23 L/min removed (sample system) = 0.02 L/min (net change) This formula may be used when calculating the changes to continuous flow on continuous flow ventilators as well (using the continuous flow in place of minute ventilation). Trigger Sensitivity

Oxygen Dilution % v/v

The addition and subtraction of gases by the INOmax DSIR may affect the trigger sensitivity of the ventilator when using synchronized modes of ventilation. This may cause the ventilator to autotrigger in ventilators which have flow trigger modes, especially where the trigger flow is set to less than 1 L/min. The trigger sensitivity of the ventilator should be checked after connecting the INOmax DSIR delivery system.
