III. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WARNINGS •
o not use the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management D System in the presence of flammable agents because an explosion and/or fire may result. • D o not use high frequency surgical instruments or endocardial catheters while the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System is in use. • There is a risk of electrical shock and hazardous moving parts. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Do not remove covers. Refer servicing to qualified personnel. • Power cord has a hospital grade plug. Grounding reliability can only be achieved when connected to an equivalent receptacle marked “hospital use” or “hospital grade.” • When using the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System, note that all other thermal conductive systems, such as water blankets, water gels, and patient coverings in use while warming, cooling, or not delivering therapy with the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System may actually alter or interfere with patient temperature control. • Do not place ArcticGel™ pads over transdermal medication patches as temperature can impact drug delivery rate, resulting in possible harm to the patient. • The Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System is not intended for use in the operating room environment. • Protection of mechanical equipment against the effects of the discharge of cardiac defibrillators is dependent upon the use of appropriate cables. Use of temperature cables listed in the System Components section of the Operator’s Manual is recommended. • Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System, including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this equipment could result. • BD supplies temperature simulators (fixed value resistors) for testing, training and demonstration purposes. Never use this device, or other method, to circumvent the normal patient temperature feedback control when the system is connected to the patient. Doing so exposes the patient to the hazards associated with severe hypo- or hyperthermia.
CAUTIONS • This product is to be used by or under the supervision of trained, qualified medical personnel. • Federal law (USA) restricts this device to sale, by or on the order of a physician. • Use only sterile water. The use of other fluids will damage the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System. • When moving the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System always use the handle to lift the controller over an obstacle to avoid over balancing.
• The patient’s bed surface should be located between 30 and 60 inches (75 cm and 150 cm) above the floor to ensure proper flow and minimize risk of leaks. • The clinician and/or operator is responsible to determine the appropriateness of custom parameters. When the system is Powered Off, all changes to parameters will revert to the default unless the new settings have been saved as new defaults in the Advanced Setup screen. For small patients (≤30 kg) it is recommended to use the following settings: Water Temperature High Limit ≤40°C (104°F); Water Temperature Low Limit ≥10°C (50°F); Control Strategy = 2. It is recommended to use the Patient Temperature High and Patient Temperature Low alarm settings. • Manual Control is not recommended for patient temperature management. The operator is advised to use the automatic therapy modes (e.g. Control Patient, Cooling, Rewarming) for automatic patient temperature monitoring and control. • The Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System will monitor and control patient core temperature based on the temperature probe attached to the system. The clinician is responsible for correctly placing the temperature probe and verifying the accuracy and placement of the patient probe at the start of the procedure. • It is recommended to measure patient temperature from a second site to verify patient temperature. BD recommends the use of a second patient temperature probe connected to Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System Temp In 2 input as it provides continuous monitoring and safety alarm features. Alternatively, patient temperature may be verified periodically with independent instrumentation. • The displayed temperature graph is for general information purposes only and is not intended to replace standard medical record documentation for use in therapy decisions. • Patient temperature will not be controlled and alarms are not enabled in Stop Mode. Patient temperature may increase or decrease with the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System in Stop Mode. • Carefully observe the system for air leaks before and during use. If the pads fail to prime or a significant continuous air leak is observed in the pad return line, check connections. If needed, replace the leaking pad. Leakage may result in lower flow rates and potentially decrease the performance of the system. • The Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System is for use only with the ArcticGel™ pads. • The ArcticGel™ pads are only for use with the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System. • The ArcticGel™ pads are non-sterile for single patient use. Do not reprocess or sterilize. If used in a sterile environment, pads should be placed according to the physician’s request, either prior to the sterile preparation or sterile draping. ArcticGel™ pads should not be placed on a sterile field. 7
Operator’s Manual CAUTIONS (Continued) • Use pads immediately after opening. Do not store pads once the kit has been opened. • Do not place ArcticGel™ pads on skin that has signs of ulceration, burns, hives, or rash. • While there are no known allergies to hydrogel materials, caution should be exercised with any patient who has a history of skin allergies or sensitivities. • Do not allow circulating water to contaminate a sterile field when patient lines are disconnected. • The water content of the hydrogel affects the pad’s adhesion to the skin and conductivity, and therefore, the efficiency of controlling patient temperature. Periodically check that pads remain moist and adherent. Replace pads when the hydrogel no longer uniformly adheres to the skin. Replacing pads at least every 5 days is recommended. • Do not puncture the ArcticGel™ pads with sharp objects. Punctures will result in air entering the fluid pathway and may reduce performance. • If accessible, examine the patient’s skin under the ArcticGel™ pads often, especially those at higher risk of skin injury. Skin injury may occur as a cumulative result of pressure, time and temperature. Possible skin injuries include bruising, tearing, skin ulcerations, blistering, and necrosis. Do not place bean bag or other firm positioning devices under the ArcticGel™ pads. Do not place positioning devices under the pad manifolds or patient lines. • Due to underlying medical or physiological conditions, some patients are more susceptible to skin damage from pressure and heat or cold. Patients at risk include those with poor tissue perfusion or poor skin integrity due to diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, poor nutritional status, steroid use or high dose vasopressor therapy. If warranted, use pressure relieving or pressure reducing devices under the patient to protect from skin injury. • The rate of temperature change and potentially the final achievable patient temperature is affected by many factors. Treatment application, monitoring and results are the responsibility of the attending physician. If the patient does not reach target temperature in a reasonable time or the patient is not able to be maintained at the target temperature, the skin may be exposed to low or high water temperatures for an extended period of time which may increase the risk for skin injury. Ensure that pad sizing/ coverage and custom parameter settings are correct for the patient and treatment goals, and the patient temperature probe is in the correct place. For patient cooling, ensure environmental factors such as excessively hot rooms, heat lamps, and heated nebulizers are eliminated and patient shivering is controlled. Otherwise, consider increasing minimum water temperature, modifying target temperature to an attainable setting or discontinuing treatment. For patient warming, consider decreasing maximum water temperature, modifying 8
target temperature to an attainable setting or discontinuing treatment. • Do not allow urine, antibacterial solutions or other agents to pool underneath the ArcticGel™ pads. Urine and antibacterial agents can absorb into the pad hydrogel and cause chemical injury and loss of pad adhesion. Replace pads immediately if these fluids come into contact with the hydrogel. • Do not place ArcticGel™ pads over an electrosurgical grounding pad. The combination of heat sources may result in thermal injury. • If needed, place defibrillation pads between the ArcticGel™ pads and the patient’s skin. • Carefully remove ArcticGel™ pads from the patient’s skin at the completion of use. Discard used ArcticGel™ pads in accordance with hospital procedures for medical waste. • The USB data port is to be used only with a standalone USB flash drive. Do not connect to another mains powered device during patient treatment. • Users should not use cleaning or decontamination methods different from those recommended by the manufacturer without first checking with the manufacturer that the proposed methods will not damage the equipment. Do not use bleach (sodium hypochlorite) as it may damage the system. • BD will not be responsible for patient safety or equipment performance if the procedures to operate, maintain, modify or service the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System are other than those specified by BD. Anyone performing the procedures must be appropriately trained and qualified. • The clinician and/or operator is responsible for clinical decisions based on Arctic Sun Work to Cool data provided by the system. The displayed graphics are for general information purposes only and are not intended to replace standard medical record documentation for use in therapy decisions. Anyone interpreting the Arctic Sun Work to Cool data to make clinical decisions must be appropriately trained and qualified.
COMPLICATIONS • Targeted Temperature Management can trigger pathophysiological side-effects on the body such as but not limited to: cardiac dysrhythmia, electrolyte and pH balance, metabolic changes, hemodynamic changes, blood-glucose balance, infection, shivering, and can affect the coagulation, respiratory, renal and neurological systems. The controlling of patient temperature should only be performed under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional.

The Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System is a thermoregulatory device that monitors and controls patient temperature within a range of 32°C to 38.5°C (89.6°F to 101.3°F). A patient temperature probe connected to the Control Module provides patient temperature feedback to an internal control algorithm which automatically increases or decreases the circulating water temperature to achieve a pre-set patient target temperature determined by the clinician. The Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System pulls temperature-controlled water ranging between 4°C and 40°C (39.2°F and 104°F) through the ArcticGel™ pads. This results in heat exchange between the water and the patient. The Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System Control Module is a Class I mobile device (Type BF, IPX0 and Mode of Operation – Continuous) per classification scheme of IEC 60601-1. The Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System Control Module meets both the electromagnetic interference and susceptibility requirements of IEC 60601-1, and is compatible with other equipment that also conforms to that standard. There is no known failure mode in the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System Control Module associated with electromagnetic interference from other devices. See Appendix A for the full declaration regarding electromagnetic compatibility.
INDICATIONS FOR USE The Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System is a thermal regulating system, indicated for monitoring and controlling patient temperature in adult and pediatric patients of all ages.
SPECIFICATIONS Environmental Conditions At operating temperatures higher than 27°C (80.6°F), the refrigeration system’s cooling capacity and therefore its ability to cool a patient is compromised.

VI. OPERATION GUIDE THERAPY PREPARATION Place ArcticGel™ Pads Read the Instructions for Use that accompanies the ArcticGel™ pads. Examine each pad for damage prior to placement. Connect ArcticGel™ Pads Water flows between the ArcticGel™ pads and Control Module via a Fluid Delivery Line. Each side of the Fluid Delivery Line can be placed by the feet or along the lower legs. There are three connectors on each side of the line for a total of six connectors. These will accommodate a full kit of four pads plus a maximum of two optional Universal pads for use in larger patients. To connect the ArcticGel™ Pads: 1) While holding the pad line tubing, insert the clear pad line connector into the Fluid Delivery Line manifold. Do not press or squeeze the wings when connecting. The connector will click into place. 2) If the connectors are not aligned properly, the connectors will not fit or click into place. Patient Placement The Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System operates under negative pressure, which helps the pads to conform to the patient’s body and minimizes the risk of leaks in the event of accidental puncture of a pad or accidental disconnection of the Fluid Delivery Line. In order to ensure negative pressure on the pads at all times, the patient’s bed surface should be placed 30 inches to 60 inches (75 cm to 150 cm) above the floor. Device Placement It is recommended to position the device near the foot of the bed during use. Use the wheel locks on the Control Module to prevent the wheels from rotating during use. Press down on the wheel locks to lock the wheels, and lift up the wheel locks to release the wheels. Temperature Probe Placement Refer to the manufacturer’s Instructions for Use for the specific indications and temperature probe placement. Select the patient temperature cable with the correct connector style for your chosen temperature probe to measure core temperature. Insert the cable into the Temp In 1 connector port on the back of the device for monitoring patient temperature on the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System.
