CLEANING • • • • •
The Patient Simulator enclosure is not waterproof. DO NOT immerse the Patient Simulator. DO NOT attempt to sterilize the Patient Simulator. Dampen a soft cloth with standard disinfectant or mild detergent and water. ° NOTE: Cloth must not be dripping wet. Thoroughly wipe the Patient Simulator and cables, removing all visible debris. Allow the Patient Simulator to thoroughly air dry before storing.
TROUBLESHOOTING Should you encounter any difficulty eliciting simulated responses from the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 PATIENT SIMULATOR, check the following: • Verify that Stimulus Measured is approximately the same as Stimulus Intensity. • Make sure the jumper cables are connected correspondingly between the SIMULATOR and PATIENT INTERFACE. • Adjust the EVENT THRESHOLD setting on the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0. • Adjust the STIMULUS intensity on the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 for adequate output. • Clean the stimulator contacts of debris. • Check the integrity of the stimulator or stimulus-dissection instrument and its connecting cable. • Check for blown fuse in NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 Patient Interface and replace with proper valued fuse (shown near fuse box). • Check for proper closure of fuse holder in the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 Patient Interface.

INTRODUCTION Impedance The Medtronic Xomed NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 Patient Simulator provides for test of the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 system without the usual need for patient interaction. The NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 Patient Simulator facilitates test of some of the features that the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 offers for patient care. In addition, the NIMNeuro™ 2.0 Patient Simulator is a convenient means of testing various aspects of instrument operability prior to patient application. The NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 Simulator is capable of demonstrating the following features: • Recording electrode off condition • Electrode impedances and difference condition • Stimulus Presentation ° Stimulus: Set and Measure ° Event Threshold

This manual should be used in conjunction with the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 User’s Guide. Refer to the User’s Guide for complete NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 operating instructions.
NIM-Neuro™ 2.0
INTENDED USE The Patient Simulator is intended for use in troubleshooting and demonstrating the operation of the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0. It is primarily intended to serve as a “patient” for the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0, and can be used to demonstrate the normal operation of the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 as well as demonstrating a lead-off condition, stimulation and mechanical response.
3.
INDICATIONS The Patient Simulator is intended for use as a training and troubleshooting aid in a non-clinical setting.
CONTRAINDICATIONS None are known.
Electrodes screen opens (fig 8). - At this display confirm: • All channels are ON. ° There are ON/OFF indicators in the upper right of each channel button. ON = GREEN. • All channels have “Subdermal Electrode” selected. • Positive and negative impedance of all 8 channels is 5.0 kW ± 0.3 kW or 5.6 kW ± 0.3 kW. • The difference in their values is 0.5 kW ± 0.3 kW. • The impedance of the Ground is 10.0 kW ± 0.6 kW. • The impedance of the Stimulus Return is 29.0 kW ± 4.0 kW. • Warning “Monitoring is Disabled” is on and flashing.
ELECTRODE LEAD OFF This test simulates what happens when contact with an electrode is lost. (See fig 9)

NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 PATIENT SIMULATOR Colored wires and connectors protrude from the end of the simulator. These cables connect to the corresponding jacks on the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 Patient Interface. On the NIM-Neuro™ 2.0 Patient Simulator, there is one stimulation contact each, for Ch 1 through Ch 8. These contacts are the points for activating individual circuits. A monopolar stimulator probe instrument (connected to STIM1 - (negative)) is recommended for use during testing to stimulate the channel circuits.
