1.2 Safety Guidance
WARNING
1Before using the device, the equipment, patient cable and electrodes etc. should be
checked. Replacement should be taken if there is any evident defect or signs of aging
which may impair the safety or performance.
2Medical technical equipment such as these monitor/monitoring system must only be
used by persons who have received adequate training in the use of such equipment
and who are capable of applying it properly.
3EXPLOSION HAZARD-Do not use the device in a flammable atmosphere where
concentrations of flammable anesthetics or other materials may occur.
4SHOCK HAZARD-The power receptacle must be a three-wire grounded outlet. A
hospital grade outlet is required. Never adapt the three-prong plug from the monitor to
fit a two-slot outlet.
5Extreme care must be exercised when applying medical electrical equipment. Many
parts of the human/machine circuit are conductive, such as the patient, connectors,
electrodes, transducers. It is very important that these conductive parts do not come
into contact with other grounded, conductive parts when connected to the isolated
patient input of the device. Such contact would bridge the patient's isolation and
cancel the protection provided by the isolated input. In particular, there must be no
contact of the neutral electrode and ground.
6Magnetic and electrical fields are capable of interfering with the proper performance
of the device. For this reason make sure that all external devices operated in the
vicinity of the monitor comply with the relevant EMC requirements. X-ray equipment
or MRI devices are a possible source of interference as they may emit higher levels of
electromagnetic radiation.
7Route all cables away from patient’s throat to avoid possible strangulation.
8Devices connecting with monitor should be equipotential.
9Accessory equipment connected to the analog and digital interfaces must be certified
according to the respective IEC/EN standards (e.g. IEC/EN 60950 for data processing
equipment and IEC/EN 60601-1 for medical equipment). Furthermore all
configurations shall comply with the valid version of the standard IEC/EN 60601-1-1.
Therefore anybody, who connects additional equipment to the signal input or output
connector to configure a medical system, must make sure that it complies with the
requirements of the valid version of the system standard IEC/EN60601-1-1. If in doubt,
consult our technical service department or your local distributor.
10 Only patient cable and other accessories supplied by EDAN can be used. Or else, the
performance and electric shock protection cannot be guaranteed, and the patient may
be injured.
Patient Monitor User Manual Intended Use and Safety Guidance
- 3 -
WARNING
11 Do not rely exclusively on the audible alarm system for patient monitoring. Adjustment
of alarm volume to a low level or off during patient monitoring may result in a hazard
to the patient. Remember that the most reliable method of patient monitoring
combines close personal surveillance with correct operation of monitoring equipment.
12 When interfacing with other equipment, a test for leakage current must be performed
by qualified biomedical engineering personnel before using with patients.
13 During monitoring, if the power supply is off and there is no battery for standby, the
monitor will be off, and only the patient information and alarm settings can be saved.
After reconnecting the power supply, the user should turn on the monitor for
monitoring.
14 Keep away from fire immediately when leakage or foul odor is detected.
15 The device and accessories are to be disposed of according to local regulations after
their useful lives. Alternatively, they can be returned to the dealer or the manufacturer
for recycling or proper disposal. Batteries are hazardous waste. Do NOT dispose
them together with house-hold garbage. At the end of their life hand the batteries over
to the applicable collection points for the recycling of waste batteries. For more
detailed information about recycling of this product or battery, please contact your
local Civic Office, or the shop where you purchased the product.

For example, an IBP channel (channel A) has already been loaded and the label Art is used for
channel A. Then another IBP channel (channel B) is loaded and the label Art is also used for
channel B. In this case, a label conflict will be triggered. A prompt indicating IBP label conflict
will appear on the left of the screen. Additionally, at the corresponding measurements area, a
label flickers to indicate a label conflict. The flickering label is the default one assigned by the
system.
The IBP channel with a label conflict will not provide any measurement data; besides, the
functions of setup, zeroing and calibrating are unavailable. To resolve the label conflict, you have
to change the conflicting label into a non-conflicting one via the following method:
1 Select the IBP channel with a label conflict on the screen and open the Options menu.
2 Choose another label among the options from the Alias pull-down list to resolve the label
conflict.

Chapter 4 Alarms
The alarm information here applies to all measurements. Measurement-specific alarm
information is discussed in the sections of individual measurements.
WARNING
A potential hazard can exist if different alarm presets are used for the same or similar
equipment in any single area, e.g. an intensive care unit or cardiac operating room.
4.1 Alarm Category
The monitor provides two types of alarms: physiological alarms and technical alarms.
4.1.1 Physiological alarms
If one or several physiological parameters of the currently monitored patient exceed the
predefined alarm limit, for example: SpO2 values exceed the alarm limit, the monitor will give an
alarm, and this type of alarm is called physiological alarms. About the detailed alarm information,
please refer to the Section physiological alarm information.
4.1.2 Technical Alarms
If one or several technical status of the device is in abnormal status, such as: lead off or low
battery and so on, the monitor will give an alarm. And this type of alarm is called technical
alarms. About the detailed alarm information, please refer to Section technical alarm
information.
4.1.3 Prompts
The monitor can give the character indication of monitoring process or other functions, such as:
ARR Relearning and so on. And this character is called prompts. About the detailed alarm
information, please refer to Section Prompts.
4.2 Alarm Levels
In terms of severity, the device’s alarm levels can be classified into three categories: high level
alarms, medium level alarms and low level alarms.
1. High level alarms
Indicating that the patient is in a life threatening situation and an emergency treatment is
demanded.
2. Medium level alarms
The patient’s vital signs appear abnormally or the device system status is abnormal,
indicating that prompt operator response is required.
Patient Monitor User Manual Alarms

3. Low level alarms
The patient’s vital signs appear abnormal or the device system status appears abnormally,
indicating that operator awareness is required.
The high/medium/low-level alarms are indicated by the system in following different ways:

WARNING
1 When the alarm is set to OFF, the monitor won’t give an alarm prompt even if an
alarm occurs. In order to avoid endangering the patient’s life, the user should use this
function cautiously.
2 Prior to monitoring, make sure that the alarm limit settings are appropriate for your
patient.
3 Setting alarm limits to extreme values may cause the alarm system to become
ineffective.
4.3.2 Temporary Alarm Mute
The monitor will give an audible alarm when there is an alarm during the audio alarm pause and
the alarm indicator and screen flash indicating there is an alarm. The top of monitor displays the
following:
1. Alarm pause symbol
2. The remaining pause time is displayed in text and the word background is red.
The user can set the audio alarm pause to 60 s, 120 s, or 180 s based on the requirement.
4.3.3 Alarm Mute
To mute the alarm, please select Menu > Maintenance > User Maintain > Alarm Setup, and
set Mute to On, then press the key on the front panel for more than three seconds or

4.3.4 Controlling Alarm Volume
The monitor provides five levels of alarm volume: 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. For adjusting the alarm
volume, please refer to Section Adjusting Alarm Volume.
4.4 Latching Alarms
To set the alarm latch function, please select Menu > Maintenance > User Maintain > Alarm
Setup and set Alarm Latch from the pull-down list. If it is set to On, when an alarm occurs, the
monitor will display the alarm message of the parameter in the alarm status area. If the parameter
resumes to normal, the alarm information of this parameter still displays in the alarm display area
and the alarm time is also displayed. If many parameters appear to be latching alarms, the alarm
messages are displayed in the physiological alarm message area in turn.
To deselect the alarm latch, please set Alarm Latch to Off. When Alarm Latch is set to Off, the
latch function is invalid.
4.5 Disabling Sensor Off Alarms
To set sensor off alarm, please select Menu > Maintenance > User Maintain and enter the
required password ABC. Then select Alarm Setup and set Sensor Off Alm from the pull-down
list. If it is set to On, and a sensor off alarm occurs, the user can press the Mute key on the front
panel to disable the alarm signal. Then the alarm indicator stops flashing, and the monitor is in
temporary mute alarm status. If the user presses the Mute key again or the temporary mute time
ends, no audible alarm for sensor-off status will be resumed. Instead, sensor-off status will be
announced with a prompt message.
4.6 Testing Alarms
When you switch the monitor on, a self test is started. You must check that the alarm indicator
lights and that you hear a single tone. This indicates that the visible and audible alarm indicators
are functioning correctly. For further testing of individual measurement alarms, perform the
measurement on yourself or use a simulator. Adjust alarm limits and check that appropriate alarm
behavior is observed.

Chapter 6 Managing Patients
6.1 Admitting a Patient
The monitor displays physiological data and stores it in the trends as soon as a patient is
connected. This allows you monitor a patient who is not yet admitted. It is however important to
admit patients properly so that you can identify your patient on recordings, reports, and
networked devices.
During admission you enter data that the monitor needs for safe and accurate operation. For
example, the patient category setting determines the algorithm the monitor uses to process and
calculate some measurements, the safety limits that are applied for some measurements, and the
alarm limit ranges.
To admit a patient, please:
1. Select the Admission key on the screen or.
2. Select Menu > Patient Setup > New Patient, then a message is displayed to ask the user to
confirm to update patient.
3. Click on No to cancel this operation; click on Yes, the Patient Info window is displayed.
4. Enter the patient information:
zSerial No: Enter the patient’s medical record number (MRN), for example 12345678.
zLast name: Enter the patient’s last name (family name), for example Smith.
zFirst name: Enter the patient’s first name, for example Joseph.
zGender: Male, Female and N/A.
zType: Choose the patient type, either Adult, Pediat, or Neonat.
zBloodType: N/A, A, B, AB and O.
zPace: Choose On or Off (You must select On if your patient has a pacemaker).
zDate of Birth: Enter the patient’s date of birth.
zDate of Admission: Enter the patient’s date of admission.
zHeight: Enter the patient’s height.
zWeight: Enter the patient’s weight.
zDoctor: Enter any extra information about the patient or treatment.
5. Select Exit.
6.1.1 Patient Category and Paced Status
The patient category setting determines the algorithm the monitor uses to process and calculate
some measurements, the safety limits that are applied for some measurements, and the alarm limit
ranges.
The paced setting determines whether the monitor shows pacemaker pulses or not. When Pace is
set to Off, pace pulses are filtered and therefore do not show in the ECG wave.
Patient Monitor User Manual Managing Patients
- 57 -
WARNING
1Changing the patient category may change the arrhythmia and NIBP alarm limits.
Always check alarm limits to make sure that they are appropriate for your patient.
2For paced patients, you must set Paced to On. If it is incorrectly set to Off, the monitor
could mistake a pace pulse for a QRS and fail to give an alarm during asystole.
6.2 Quick Admit
If you do not have the time or information to fully admit a patient. Complete the rest of the
patient information later. To quickly admit a patient, please:
1. Select Menu > Patient Setup > Quick Admit, then a message is displayed to ask the user to
confirm to update patient.
2. Click on No to cancel this operation; click on Yes to continue and the Patient Info window
is displayed, choose Type and Pace and set them to the correct mode.
3. Select Exit.
6.3 Editing Patient Information
To edit the patient information after a patient has been admitted, select Menu > Patient Setup >

Chapter 8 Monitoring ECG
8.1 Overview
The electrocardiogram (ECG) measures the electrical activity of the heart and displays it on the
monitor as a waveform and a numeric. This chapter also tells you about arrhythmia monitoring
and ST monitoring.
8.2 ECG Safety Information
WARNING
1Do not come into contact with the patient, table, or the monitor during defibrillation.
2Only use the ECG leads supplied by the manufacturer when using the monitor for
ECG monitoring.
3When connecting the cables and electrodes, make sure no conductive part is in
contact with the ground. Verify that all ECG electrodes, including neutral electrodes,
are securely attached to the patient but not the conductive part or ground.
4Check every day whether there is skin irritation resulted from the ECG electrodes. If
yes, replace electrodes every 24 hours or change their sites.
5Place the electrode carefully and ensure a good contact.
6Check if the lead connection is correct before monitoring. If you unplug the ECG cable
from the socket, the screen will display the error message “ECG LEAD OFF” and the
audible alarm is activated.
7When using the monitor with the defibrillator or other high-frequency equipment,
please use defibrillator-proof ECG lead to avoid burn.
8In order to avoid being burnt, please keep the electrodes far away from the radio knife
while using electrosurgical equipment.
9When using Electrosurgery (ES) equipment, do not place an electrode near the
grounding plate of the Electrosurgery device: otherwise there will be a great deal of
interference with the ECG signal.
10 For patients with pacemakers, the pacing impulse analysis function must be switched
ON. Otherwise, the pacing impulse may be counted as normal QRS complex, which
results in failure of ECG LOST error detection.
11 The electrodes should be made of the same metal materials.
12 ECG cables can be damaged when connected to a patient during defibrillation. Check
cables for functionality before using them again.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring ECG
- 64 -
NOTE:
1Interference from a non-grounded instrument near the patient and ESU interference
can cause inaccuracy of the waveform.
2IEC/EN60601-1-2 (protection against radiation is 3v/m) specifies that the electrical
field density exceeding 1v/m may cause measurement error in various frequencies. It
is accordingly suggested that do not use equipment generating electrical radiation
near ECG/RESP monitoring devices.
3The simultaneous use of cardiac pacemaker and other patient-connected equipment
may cause safety hazard.
4If the pacemaker signals are beyond the claimed range, the heart rate may be
calculated incorrectly.
5In the default settings of the monitor, the ECG waveforms are the first two waveforms
from top in the waveform area.
6For measurements in or near the heart we recommend connecting the monitor to the
potential equalization system.
7For protecting environment, the used electrodes must be recycled or disposed of
properly.
8.3 ECG Display
The figure below is for reference only.
The symbol “ķ”indicates lead name of display waveform: there are other leads for selection,
such as I, II, III, aVR, aVF, aVL, V. If you want to change the lead, please refer to section
Selecting Calculation Lead.
The symbol “ĸ” indicates waveform gain: there are several options, such as X0.125, X0.25,
X0.5, X1, X2, X4 and Auto. If you want to change it, please refer to section Changing the size of
the ECG Wave.
The symbol “Ĺ” indicates Filter setting, there are three options: monitoring, surgery, diagnosis.
If you want to change it, please refer to section Changing the ECG Filter Setting.
8.3.1 Changing the Size of the ECG Wave
If any of the displayed ECG waveform is too small or clipped, you can change the size of it on
the screen. First select ECG Wave Setup > ECG Gain, then select an appropriate factor from
the pop-up box to adjust the ECG waveform.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring ECG
- 65 -
X0.125 to make strength of ECG signal waveform of 1mV become 1.25mm;
X0.25 to make strength of ECG signal waveform of 1mV become 2.5mm;
X0.5 to make strength of ECG signal waveform of 1mV become 5mm;
X1 to make strength of ECG signal waveform of 1mV become 10mm;
X2 to make strength of ECG signal waveform of 1mV become 20mm;
X4 to make strength of ECG signal waveform of 1mV become 40mm;
Auto let the monitor choose the optimal adjustment factor for all the ECG waves.
8.3.2 Changing the ECG Filter Settings
The ECG filter setting defines how ECG waves are smoothed. An abbreviation indicating the
filter type is shown underneath the lead label on the monitor display. Filter settings do not affect
ST measurement.
To change the filter setting, in the ECG Setup menu, select Filter and then select the appropriate
setting.
– Monitor: Use this mode under normal measurement conditions.
– Surgery: The filter reduces interference to the signal. It should be used if the signal is
distorted by high frequency or low frequency interference. High frequency interference usually
results in large amplitude spikes making the ECG signal look irregular. Low frequency
interference usually leads to a wandering or rough baseline. In the operating room, the Filter
reduces artifacts and interference from electro-surgical units. Under normal measurement
conditions, selecting Surgery may suppress the QRS complexes too much and thus interfere with
the clinical evaluation of the ECG displayed on the monitor.
– Diagnos: Use when diagnostic quality is required. The unfiltered ECG wave is displayed so
that changes such as R-wave notching or discrete elevation or depression of the ST segments are
visible.
8.4 Using ECG Alarms
ECG alarms can be switched on and off and the changes to high and low alarm limits are just like
other measurement alarms, which are described in the Alarms section. Special alarm features
applying only to ECG are described here.
8.5 Selecting Calculation Lead
On the Normal interface, the users can select either 3 LEADS or 5 LEADS for this item. Normal
QRS complex should be:
The normal QRS should be either completely above or below the baseline and it should not
be biphasic. For paced patients, the QRS complexes should be at least twice the height of
pace pulses.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring ECG
- 66 -
The QRS should be tall and narrow.
The P-waves and the T-waves should be less than 0.2 mV.
8.6 Monitoring Procedure
8.6.1 Preparation
The skin is a poor conductor of electricity, therefore preparation of the patient's skin is important
to facilitate good electrode contact to skin.
Select sites with intact skin, without impairment of any kind.
Shave hair from sites, if necessary.
Wash sites thoroughly with soap and water. (Never use ether or pure alcohol, because this
increases skin impedance).
Rub the skin briskly to increase capillary blood flow in the tissues and remove skin scurf and
grease.

8.8.4 Recommended ECG Lead Placement for Surgical Patients
WARNING
When using Electrosurgery (ES) equipment, leads should be placed in a position in equal
distance from Electrosurgery electrotome and the ES grounding plate to avoid cautery.
Electrosurgery equipment wire and ECG cable must not be tangled up.
Monitoring ECG leads are mainly used for monitoring the patient’s vital signs. When using the
patient monitor with other electrosurgery equipment, it is advised to use the counteracting
defibrillation ECG lead.
The placement of the ECG leads will depend on the type of surgery that is being performed. For
example, in an open chest surgery the electrodes may be placed laterally on the chest or on the
back. In the operating room, artifacts may affect the ECG waveform due to the use of ES
(Electrosurgery) equipment. To help reduce this you can place the electrodes on the right and left
shoulders, the right and left sides near the abdomen, and the chest lead on the left side at
mid-chest. Avoid placing the electrodes on the upper arms. Otherwise the ECG waveform will be
too small.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring ECG
- 71 -
NOTE:
1If an ECG waveform is not accurate, while the electrodes are tightly attached, try to
change the lead.
2Interference from a non-grounded instrument near the patient and ESU interference
can cause inaccuracy of the waveform.
8.9 ECG Menu Setup
8.9.1 Setting Alarm Source
To change the alarm source, please select ECG Setup > Alarm Source, then a pop-up box is
displayed:
HR: the monitor considers the HR as HR/PR alarm source;
PR: the monitor considers the PR as HR/PR alarm source;
AUTO: If the Alarm Source is set to Auto, the monitor will use the heart rate from the ECG
measurement as the alarm source whenever the ECG measurement is switched on and at least one
ECG lead can be measured without a technical condition. The monitor will automatically switch
to Pulse as the alarm source if:
–a valid ECG lead can no longer be measured and
–a pulse source is switched on and available.
The monitor then uses the pulse rate from the measurement currently active as system pulse.
While Pulse is the alarm source, all arrhythmia and ECG HR alarms are switched off. If an ECG
lead becomes available again, the monitor automatically uses HR as alarm source.
8.9.2 Smart Lead Off
In 5 LEADS, 12 LEADS mode, if CH1 and CH2 cannot be measured because of the lead off or
other reasons, it can shift to other modes to collect an ECG waveform.

8.10.4 About ST Measurement Points
The ST value for each beat complex is the vertical difference between the ISO point and the ST
point, as shown in the diagram below. The isoelectric (ISO) point provides the baseline, and the
ST point is at the midpoint of the ST segment. The J point is where the QRS complex changes its
slope; as it is a fixed distance away from the ST point, it can be useful to help you position the ST
point correctly.
DEF POINT
The ST and ISO measurement points need to be adjusted when you start monitoring, and if the
patient's heart rate or ECG morphology changes significantly. Always ensure that ST
measurement points are appropriate for your patient. Abnormal QRS complex is not considered
in ST segment analysis.
8.10.5 Adjusting ST and ISO Measurement Points
Depending on your monitor’s configuration, the ST point can be positioned, too.
These two points can be adjusted by turning the knob. When adjusting ST measurement point, the
system will show the ST Measurement Point Window. The system displays the QRS complex
template in the window. It is adjustable for the highlight bar in the window. You may select ISO
or ST, switch the knob left or right to move the cursor line. When the cursor is at the required
position, you may select the base point or the measurement point.
8.11 Arr. Monitoring
8.11.1 Arrhythmia Analysis
The arrhythmia algorithm is used to monitor ECG of patients in clinics, and detect the changes of
heart rate and ventricular rhythm, and also save arrhythmia events and generate alarming
information. Arrhythmia algorithm can monitor paced and non-paced patients. Qualified
personnel can use arrhythmia analysis to evaluate patient’s condition (such as heart rate, PVCs
frequency, rhythm and ectopic beat) and decide the treatment. Besides detecting change of ECG,
arrhythmia algorithm can also monitor patients and give proper alarm for arrhythmia.

Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring RESP
- 79 -
Chapter 9 Monitoring RESP
9.1 Overview
The monitor measures respiration from the amount of thoracic impedance between two ECG
electrodes. The change of impedance between the two electrodes, (due to the thoracic movement),
produces a respiratory waveform on the screen.
9.2 RESP Safety Information
WARNING
1If you do not set the detection level for the respiration correctly in manual detection
mode, it may not be possible for the monitor to detect apnea. If you set the detection
level too low, the monitor is more likely to detect cardiac activity, and to falsely
interpret cardiac activity as respiratory activity in the case of apnea.
2The respiration measurement does not recognize obstructive and mixed apneas - it
only indicates an alarm when a pre-adjusted time has elapsed since the last detected
breath.
3If operating under conditions according to the EMC Standard EN 60601-1-2 (Radiated
Immunity 3V/m), field strengths above 1V/m may cause erroneous measurements at
various frequencies. Therefore it is recommended to avoid the use of electrically
radiating equipment in close proximity to the respiration measurement unit.
4Cardiogenic artifact in impedance respiration monitoring may make it difficult to detect
breaths or may otherwise be counted as breaths. In some instances, the breath rate
may also correspond to the heart rate making it difficult to determine if the signal is
due to breathing or the cardiac cycle. Do not rely on RESP monitoring as the sole
method for detecting cessation of breathing. Follow hospital guidelines and best
clinical practices for apnea detection including monitoring additional parameters that
indicate the patient’s oxygenation status, such as etCO2 and SpO2.
NOTE:
The RESP monitoring is not recommended to be used on patients who are very active, as
this can cause false alarms.

9.4 Electrode Placement for Monitoring Resp
Correct patient skin preparation techniques for electrode placement are important for Resp
measurement: you will find this information in the chapter on Monitoring ECG.
The Resp signal is always measured between two of the ECG electrodes. There are two standard
ECG leads for selection: I lead (RA and LA) and II lead (RA and LL).
Electrodes Placement for 5-lead
9.5 Cardiac Overlay
Cardiac activity that affects the Resp waveform is called cardiac overlay. It happens when the
Resp electrodes pick up impedance changes caused by the rhythmic blood flow. Correct electrode
placement can help to reduce cardiac overlay: avoid the liver area and the ventricles of the heart
in the line between the respiratory electrodes. This is particularly important for neonates.
9.6 Chest Expansion
Some patients, especially neonates, expand their chests laterally. In these cases it is best to place
the two respiratory electrodes in the right mid-axillary and left lateral chest areas at the patient’s
maximum point of breathing movement to optimize the respiratory wave.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring RESP
- 81 -
9.7 Abdominal Breathing
Some patients with restricted chest movement breathe mainly abdominally. In these cases, you
may need to place the left leg electrode on the left abdomen at the point of maximum abdominal
expansion to optimize the respiratory wave.
NOTE:
Place the red and green electrodes diagonally to optimize the respiration waveform.
Avoid the liver area and the ventricles of the heart in the line between the RESP
electrodes so as to avoid cardiac overlay or artifacts from pulsating blood flow. This is
particularly important for neonates.
9.8 Selecting Resp Lead
To change Resp lead, in the Resp Setup menu, select Resp Lead to pick up the appropriate lead
from the pop-up list.
9.9 Changing Hold Type
To change the calculation mode, in the Resp Setup menu, set Hold Type to Manual or Auto.
When it is set to the AUTO mode, Hold High and Hold Low are unavailable, and the monitor
can calculate the respiration rate automatically. When it is set to the Manual mode, you can
adjust the broken lines in RESP area by the Hold High and Hold Low items.
9.10 Changing the Size of the Respiration Wave
Select the Resp waveform area to open the Resp Wave Setup menu:
zSelect AMP, then choose an appropriate value. The value is bigger, the waveform amplitude
is higher.
zSelect Sweep: select an appropriate setting from the pop-up list.
9.11 Using Resp Alarms
Resp alarms can be switched on and off and the high and low alarm limits can be changed just
like other measurement alarms, as described in the Alarms chapter.
9.12 Changing the Apnea Time
The apnea alarm is a high priority red alarm used to detect apneas. The apnea alarm delay time
defines the time period between the point where the monitor cannot detect any respiration activity
and the indication of the apnea alarm.
1. In the Resp Setup menu, select Apnea Alm.
2. Select the appropriate setting from the popup list.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring SpO

- 82 -
Chapter 10 Monitoring SpO2
10.1 Overview
SpO2 is based on the absorption of pulse blood oxygen to red and infrared light by means of
finger sensor and SpO2 measuring unit. SpO2 Plethysmogram measurement is employed to
determine the oxygen saturation of hemoglobin in the arterial blood. If, for example, 97% of the
hemoglobin molecules in the red blood cells of the arterial blood combine with oxygen, then the
blood has a SpO2 oxygen saturation of 97%. The SpO2 numeric on the monitor will read 97%.
The SpO2 numeric shows the percentage of hemoglobin molecules which have combined with
oxygen molecules to form oxyhemoglobin. The SpO2/PLETH parameter can also provide a pulse
rate signal and a plethysmogram wave.
10.2 SpO2 Safety Information
WARNING
1If the SpO2 sensor cannot work properly, please reconnect the sensor or change a
new one.
2Do not use the sterile supplied SpO2 sensors if the packaging or the sensor is
damaged and return them to the vendor.
3Prolonged and continuous monitoring may increase the risk of unexpected change of
dermal condition such as abnormal sensitivity, rubescence, vesicle, repressive
putrescence, and so on. It is especially important to check the sensor placement of
neonate and patient of poor perfusion or immature dermogram by light collimation and
proper attaching strictly according to changes of the skin. More frequent examinations
may be required for different patients.
4Tissue damage may be caused by incorrect application or prolonged measurement
duration using the sensor (more than 4 hours). Inspect the sensor periodically
according to the sensor user manual.
5Use only EDAN permitted sensors and extension cables with the monitor. Other
sensors or extension cables may cause improper monitor performance and/or minor
personal injury.
NOTE:
1Make sure the nail covers the light window. The wire should be on the backside of the
hand.
2SpO2 waveform is not proportional to the pulse volume.
3Avoid placing the sensor on extremities with an arterial catheter, or intravascular
venous infusion line.

4Don’t use the functional tester to access the SpO2 accuracy.
5The device is calibrated to display functional oxygen saturation.
6The materials with which the patient or any other person can come into contact
conform with the standard of EN ISO 10993-1:2003.
10.3 Measuring SpO2
1. Select the correct patient category setting (adult/pediatric and neonatal), as this is used to
optimize the calculation of the SpO2 and pulse numeric.
2. During measurement, ensure that the application site:
– has a pulsatile flow, ideally with a good circulation perfusion.
– has not changed in its thickness, causing an improper fit of the sensor.
10.4 Measurement Procedure
1. Switch on the monitor.
2. Attach the sensor to the appropriate site of the patient finger.
3. Plug the connector of the sensor extension cable into the SpO2 socket on the SpO2 module.
Mounting of the Sensor
WARNING
Inspect the application site every two to three hours to ensure skin quality and correct
optical alignment. If the skin quality changes, move the sensor to another site. Change
the application site at least every four hours.
NOTE:
Injected dyes such as methylene blue or intravascular dyshemoglobins such as
methemoglobin and carboxyhemoglobin may lead to inaccurate measurements.
Interference can be caused by:
zHigh levels of ambient light or strobe lights or flashing lights (such as fire alarm lamps).
(Hint: cover application site with opaque material.)
zHigh-frequency electrical noise, including electro-surgical apparatus and defibrillators

heart in beats per minute (bpm). You can display a pulse from any measured SpO2 signal or any
arterial pressure.
11.2 Setting PR Source
The monitor provides PR source options. You can select SpO2 or arterial pressure labels as the
PR source in the PR Source list on the PR Setup menu.
NOTE:
In the PR Source list, an arterial pressure label accompanied with a label with brackets
indicates this label is in conflict. Do not select a conflicting label as the PR source.
11.3 Setting PR Volume
Six selections are available: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. 5 indicates the maximum volume. 0 indicates no
sound. You can change PR Volume in the PR Setup menu.
11.4 Using Pulse Alarms
You can change pulse rate alarm limits in the PR Setup menu by selecting Alarm Setup. Pulse
alarms are only generated when the active alarm source is set to PR, a pulse source is set as
system pulse and pulse alarms are switched on.
11.5 Selecting the Active Alarm Source
In most cases, the HR and Pulse numerics are identical. In order to avoid simultaneous alarms on
HR and Pulse, the monitor uses either HR or Pulse as its active alarm source. To change the
alarm source, select Alarm Source in the HR/Pulse Alarms menu, then select
zHR: if you want HR to be the alarm source for HR/Pulse.
zPR: if you select Pulse as the active alarm source, the monitor will prompt you to confirm
your choice. Be aware that if you select Pulse as the alarm source, all arrhythmia and ECG
HR alarms are switched off.
zAUTO: if the Alarm Source is set to Auto, the monitor will use the heart rate from the ECG
measurement as the alarm source whenever the ECG measurement is switched on and at least
one ECG lead can be measured without a technical alarm condition. The monitor will
automatically switch to Pulse as the alarm source.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring NIBP
- 87 -
Chapter 12 Monitoring NIBP
12.1 Overview
This monitor uses the oscillometric method for measuring NIBP. It can be used for adult,
pediatric and neonatal patients.
Oscillometric devices measure the amplitude of pressure changes in the occluding cuff as the cuff
deflates from above systolic pressure. The amplitude suddenly increases as the pulse breaks
through the occlusion in the artery. As the cuff pressure decreases further, the pulsations increase
in amplitude, reach a maximum (which approximates to the mean pressure), and then diminish.
In adult and pediatric mode, the blood pressure measurements determined with this device comply
with the American National Standard for Electronic or Automated Sphygmomanometers
(ANSI/AAMI SP10-1992) in relation to mean error and standard deviation, when compared to
auscultatory measurements in a representative patient population. For the auscultatory reference,
the fifth Korotkoff sound was used to determine the diastolic pressure.
In neonatal mode, the blood pressure measurements determined with this device comply with the
American National Standard for Electronic or Automated Sphygmomanometers (ANSI/AAMI
SP10-1992) in relation to mean error and standard deviation, when compared to intra-arterial
measurements in a representative patient population.
12.2 NIBP Safety Information
WARNING
1Do not measure NIBP on patients with sickle-cell disease or any condition where skin
damage has occurred or is expected.
2Use clinical judgement to decide whether to perform frequent unattended blood
pressure measurements on patients with severe blood clotting disorders because of
the risk of hematoma in the limb fitted with the cuff.
3Ensure that the correct setting is selected when performing measurements. It may be
dangerous for the children to use an over pressure level.
4The equipment is suitable for use in the presence of electrosurgery.
5The equipment can provide protective means to prevent the patient from being
burned when used with HF SURGICAL EQUIPMENT. The equipment can protect
against the effects of the discharge of a defibrillator.
6Before starting a measurement, verify that you have selected a setting appropriate for
your patient (adult, pediatric or neonatal.)
7Do not apply the cuff to a limb that has an intravenous infusion or catheter in place.
This could cause tissue damage around the catheter when infusion is slowed or
blocked during cuff inflation.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring NIBP
- 88 -
WARNING
8Make sure that the air conduit connecting the blood pressure cuff and the monitor is
neither blocked nor tangled.
9Do not attach the cuff to a limb being used for IV infusions as the cuff inflation can
block the infusion, potentially causing harm to patient.
NOTE:
1It is suggested that the user should not start NIBP measuring when the low battery
displays, or the monitor may be turned off automatically.
2If you spill liquid onto the equipment or accessories, particularly if there is a chance
that it can get inside the tubing or the measurement device, contact your service
personnel.
3Continuous use of the automatic measuring mode for short intervals may lead to the
discomfort of patient.
12.3 Introducing the Oscillometric NIBP Measurement
Oscillometric devices measure the amplitude of pressure changes in the occluding cuff as the cuff
deflates from above systolic pressure. The amplitude suddenly increases as the pulse breaks
through the occlusion in the artery. As the cuff pressure decreases further, the pulsations increase
in amplitude, reach a maximum (which approximates to the mean pressure), and then diminish.
12.4 Measurement Limitations
Measurements are impossible with heart rate extremes of less than 40 bpm or greater than 240
bpm, or if the patient is on a heart-lung machine.
The measurement may be inaccurate or impossible in the following situations:
zA regular arterial pressure pulse is hard to detect.
zPatients with cardiac arrhythmias.
zPatients with excessive and continuous movement such as shivering or convulsions.
zPatients with rapid blood pressure changes.
zPatients with severe shock or hypothermia that reduces blood flow to the peripheries.
zPatients with obesity, where a thick layer of fat surrounding a limb dampens the oscillations
coming from the artery.
zPatients on an edematous extremity.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring NIBP

12.5 Measurement Methods
There are three methods of measuring NIBP:
zManual - measurement on demand.
zAuto - continually repeated measurements (between 1 and 480 minute adjustable interval).
zSequence - the measurement will run consecutively in five minutes, then the monitor enters
manual mode.
WARNING
Prolonged non-invasive blood pressure measurements in Auto mode may be associated
with purport, ischemia and neuropathy in the limb wearing the cuff. When monitoring a
patient, examine the extremities of the limb frequently for normal color, warmth and
sensitivity. If any abnormality is observed, stop the blood pressure measurements.
12.6 Measurement Procedures
1. Connect the air hose and switch on the monitor.
2. Apply the blood pressure cuff to the patient's arm or leg and follow the instructions below.
Ensure that the cuff is completely deflated.
Apply the appropriate size cuff to the patient (About the cuff size selection, please refer to
Section NIBP accessories), and make sure that the symbol "" is over the artery. Ensure that
the cuff is not wrapped too tightly around the limb. Excessive tightness may cause
discoloration and eventual ischemia of the extremity.
NOTE:
The width of the cuff should be either approximately 40% of the limb circumference (50%
for neonates) or 2/3 of the upper arm length. The inflatable part of the cuff should be long
enough to encircle 50-80% of the limb. The wrong size of cuff can cause erroneous
readings. If the cuff size is in question, use a larger cuff.

Chapter 13 Monitoring TEMP
13.1 Overview
Body temperature is measured by means of a thermistor probe (a semiconductor whose resistance
changes with temperature) that is inserted in the rectum.
Two TEMP probes can be used simultaneously to measure two TEMP values, and get the
temperature difference. The standard configuration is axilla sensor for adult.
13.2 TEMP Safety Information
WARNING
1Verify probe cables fault detection before the beginning of monitoring phase. Unplug
the temperature probe cable of the channe1 from the socket, and then the screen will
display the error message TEMP T1 Sensor Off and the audible alarm is activated. It
is the same to the other channel.
2Take the TEMP probe and cable carefully. When they are not in use, you should coil
up the probe and cable into a loose circle. If the wire inside the cable is tensely pulled,
it may cause mechanical damage to the probe and the cable.
13.3 TEMP Monitoring Setup
With a reusable TEMP probe you can plug the probe directly into the monitor. Apply the TEMP
probes securely to the patient. Switch on the monitor.
It takes 2 min ~ 3 min for the body temperature to stabilize.
13.4 Calculating Temp Difference
The monitor can calculate and display the difference between two temperature values by
subtracting T2 from T1. The difference is labeled TD.

Chapter 14 Monitoring Quick TEMP*
*not available in the U.S.A., Canada, UK and Germany
14.1 Overview
Quick temperature measurement is to establish thermal balance between probe and human body.
When the probe is placed on the measurement site until a steady reading is available - after
approximately three minutes for oral and rectal measurements and five minutes for axillary
measurements. And the measurement temperature is the monitoring temperature. The temperature
curve in this process has a certain discipline. The approximatively actual temperature curve can
be simulated by temperature data sampled earlier. The temperature at thermal balance is
calculated through the specific algorithm based on the curve.
The monitor can only measure temperature of adult and pediatric patients. If the user measures
temperature of neonatal patient, the monitor will not display data. The oral/axillary sensor and
rectal sensor are of standard configuration.
14.2 Quick TEMP Safety Information
WARNING
1To ensure optimal accuracy, always confirm that the correct mode and alarm limit are
selected. Changing the measure position may lead to the change of alarm limit.
2Verify probe cables fault detection before the beginning of monitoring phase. Unplug
the temperature probe cable from the socket, and then the screen will display the
error message TEMP SENSOR OFF and the audible alarm is activated.
3Take the TEMP probe and cable carefully. When they are not in use, you should coil
up the probe and cable into a loose circle. If the wire inside the cable is tensely pulled,
it may cause mechanical damage to the probe and the cable.
4The calibration of the temperature module is necessary every two years (or as
frequently as dictated by your Hospital Procedures Policy). When you need to
calibrate the temperature measurement, please contact the manufacturer.
5Patient actions may interfere with accurate oral temperature readings. Ingesting hot or
cold liquids, eating food, chewing gum or mints, brushing teeth, smoking or
performing strenuous activity may affect temperature readings for up to 20min after

Chapter 15 Monitoring IBP
15.1 Overview
IBP is measured by means of a catheter inserted directly into the circulatory system. A pressure
transducer connected to the catheter converts the mechanical force exerted by the blood into an
electrical signal, which is displayed graphically as pressure versus time on a monitor screen or
numerically on digital display.
The monitor measures direct blood pressure of one selected blood vessel through two channels or
four channels, and displays waveforms and pressure of measured direct blood pressure (SYS,
DIA and MAP).
15.2 IBP Safety Information
WARNING
1The operator should avoid contact with the conductive parts of the appurtenance
when it is connected or applied.
2When the monitor is used with HF surgical equipment, the transducer and the cables
must be avoided from conductive connection to the HF equipment. This is to protect
against burns to the patient.
3Disposable IBP transducer or domes should not be reused.
4If any kind of liquid, other than solution to be infused in pressure line or transducer, is
splashed on the equipment or its accessories, or enters the transducer or the monitor,
contact the Hospital Service Center immediately.
NOTE:
1Use only the pressure transducer listed in the IBP Accessories
2Calibrate the instrument either whenever a new transducer is used, or as frequently
as dictated by your Hospital Procedures Policy.
15.3 Monitoring Procedures
Preparatory steps for IBP measurement:
1. Plug the pressure cable into the corresponding socket and switch on the monitor.
2. Flushing through the system with normal saline solution. Ensure that the system is free of air
bubbles.
3. Connect the patient catheter to the pressure line, making sure that there is no air present in
the catheter or pressure line.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring IBP
- 99 -
4. Position the transducer so that it is at the same level with the patient’s heart, approximately
mid-axillary line.
5. For the label name selection, please refer to Selecting a Pressure for Monitoring.
6. To zero the transducer, please refer to Zeroing the Pressure Transducer.
WARNING
If there are air bubbles in the pressure line or the transducer, you should flush the system
with the solution to be infused.
15.4 Selecting a Pressure for Monitoring
Tell the monitor which pressure you want to monitor by selecting its pressure label. The label is a
unique identifier for each type of pressure. When you choose a label, the monitor uses that label’s
stored settings, for example color, wave scale and alarm settings. The label also determines which
algorithm is used to process the pressure signal, so an incorrect label can lead to incorrect
pressure values. To select the label, please refer to the following table:
Label Description
ART Arterial blood pressure
PA Pulmonary artery pressure
CVP Central venous pressure
ICP Intracranial pressure
LAP Left atrial pressure
RAP Right atrial pressure
P1-P2 Alternative non-specific pressure labels
15.5 Zeroing the Pressure Transducer
To avoid inaccurate pressure readings, the monitor requires a valid zero. Zero the transducer in
accordance with your hospital policy (at least once per day). You must perform a zero:
zWhen you use a new transducer or tubing
zEvery time you reconnect the transducer cable to the monitor;
zIf you think the monitor’s pressure readings are not correct.
When using a pressure module, the zero information is stored in the module.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring IBP

Chapter 16 Monitoring CO2
16.1 Overview
The monitor provides the sidestream and mainstream methods for CO2 monitoring. EDAN
module and Respironics Sidestream CO2 module are used for sidestream measuring, and
Respironics Mainstream CO2 module is used for mainstream measuring.
The principle of CO2 measurement is primarily based on the fact that CO2 molecule can absorb
4.3m infrared ray. Absorption intensity is proportional to CO2 concentration of patient sample,
the CO2 concentration will compute according to the detecting CO2 absorption intensity of patient
sample.
zSidestream measurement takes a sample of the respiratory gas with a constant sample flow
from the patient’s airway and analyzes it with a remote CO2 sensor. You can measure
Sidestream CO2 using the monitor’s built-in CO2 measurement.
zMainstream measurement uses a CO2 sensor attached to an airway adapter directly inserted
into the patient’s breathing system.
16.2 CO2 Safety Information
WARNING
1Do not use the device in the environment with flammable anesthetic gas.
2The device should be used by trained and qualified medical personnel authorized by
EDAN.
3Nitrous oxide, elevated levels of oxygen, helium, xenon, halogenated hydrocarbons,
and barometric pressure can influence the CO2 measurement.
4The monitor will be damaged if any pipeline from the CO2 module is disconnected, or
the air tube /the air inlet /the air outlet are plugged by water or other materials.
5The accuracy of the CO2 measurement will be affected by the following reasons: the
airway was highly obstructed; the leakage of air way connection or quick variation of
environment temperature.
6Follow precautions for electrostatic discharge (ESD) and electromagnetic interference
(EMI) to and from other equipment.
7In the presence of electromagnetic devices (i.e., electrocautery), patient monitoring
may be interrupted due to electromagnetic interference. Electromagnetic fields up to
20V/m will not adversely affect module performance.
8Do not place the sensor cables or tubing in any manner that may cause entanglement
or strangulation.
9Do not store the CO2 Module at temperatures less than -40º F (-40º C) or greater than
158º F (70º C). Do not operate the CO2 Module at temperatures less than 32ºF (0º C)
or greater than 104º F (40º C).

18.3 Monitoring Steps
18.3.1 Monitoring Steps for ISA Analyzer
18.3.1.1 Performing a Pre-use Check
Before connecting the Nomoline sampling line to the breathing circuit, do the following:
1. Connect the sampling line to the ISA gas inlet connector (LEGI).
2. Check that the LEGI shows a steady green light (indicating that the system is OK).
3. For ISA OR+ and ISA AX+ module with O2 option fitted: Check that the O2 reading on the
monitor is correct (21%).
4. Breathe into the sampling line and check that valid CO2 waveforms and values are displayed
on the monitor.
5. Occlude the sampling line with a fingertip and wait for 10 seconds.
6. Check that an occlusion alarm is displayed and that the LEGI shows a flashing red light.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring AG
- 120 -
7. If applicable: Perform a tightness check of the patient circuit with the sampling line attached.
18.3.1.2 System Setup for Analyzer
If your system is using the plug-in and measure ISA analyzer, please follow the setup instructions
below:
1. Connect the ISA analyzer interface cable to the monitor.
2. Connect a Nomoline sampling line to the ISA analyzer input connector.
3. Connect the gas sample exhaust port to a scavenging system or return the gas to the patient
circuit.
4. Power up the monitor.
5. A green LED indicates that the ISA analyzer is ready for use.
6. Perform a pre-use check as described in section Perform a pre-use Check.
18.3.1.3 Zeroing
The infrared module needs to establish a zero reference level for the CO2, N2O and anesthetic
agent gas measurement. This zero calibration is here referred to as "zeroing".
ISA analyzer performs zeroing automatically by switching the gas sampling from the respiratory
circuit to ambient air. The automatic zeroing is performed every 24 hours, and takes less than 3
seconds for ISA CO2 module and less than 10 seconds for ISA analyzer.
If the ISA analyzer is fitted with an oxygen sensor, the automatic zeroing will also include room
air calibration of the oxygen sensor.
WARNING
1Since a successful zeroing requires the presence of ambient air (21% O2 and 0% CO2)
in the ISA analyzer, ensure that the ISA analyzer is placed in a well ventilated place.
Avoid breathing near the ISA analyzer before or during the zeroing procedure.
2The sampling line should be replaced every two weeks, otherwise it is clogged.
18.3.1.4 Maintenance
GAS readings should be verified by conducting the recommended maintenance checks. For
details, please refer to Chapter Maintenance.
WARNING
1. The Nomoline sampling lines are non-sterile devices. To avoid damage, do not
autoclave any parts of the sampling line.
2. Never sterilize or immerse the ISA analyzer in liquid.

5Connect the IRMA/airway adapter 15mm female connector to the patient’s endotracheal
tube.
Alternatively, connect an HME (Heat Moisture Exchanger) between the patient’s endotracheal
tube and the IPMA probe. Placing an HME in front of the IRMA probe protects the airway
adapter from secretions and effects of water vapor and eliminates the need of changing the
adapter. It allows free positioning of the IRMA probe as well.
6Unless the IRMA probe is protected with an HME always position the IRMA probe with the
status LED pointing upwards.
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring AG

18.3.2.1 Placement of IRMA Probe
When connecting IRMA probe to an infant patient circuit, it is important to avoid a direct contact
between the IRMA probe and the infant’s body. If, for whatever the reason, the IRMA probe is in
direct contact with any parts of the infant’s body, an insulation material shall be placed between
the IRMA probe and the body.
WARNING
The IRMA probe is not intended to be in long term skin contact.
18.3.2.2 Performing a Pre-use Check
Prior to connecting the IRMA airway adapter to the breathing circuit, verify the O2 calibration by
checking that the O2 reading on the monitor is correct (21%). See the following section on how to
perform air calibration.
Always verify gas readings and waveforms on the monitor before connecting the airway adapter
to the patient circuit.
Perform the tightness check of the patient circuit with the IRMA probe snapped on the IRMA
airway adapter.
18.3.2.3 Zeroing
WARNING
Incorrect probe zeroing will result in false gas readings.
In order to secure high precision of the IRMA probe measurements the following zeroing
recommendations should be followed.
Zeroing is performed by snapping a new IRMA airway adapter onto the IRMA probe, without
connecting the airway adapter to the patient circuit, and then using the host instrument to transmit
a zero reference command to the IRMA probe.
Special care should be taken to avoid breathing near the airway adapter before or during the
zeroing procedure. The presence of ambient air (21% O2 and 0% CO2) in the IRMA airway
adapter is of crucial importance for a successful zeroing. If a “ZERO-REQ” alarm should appear
Patient Monitor User Manual Monitoring AG
- 124 -
directly after a zeroing procedure, the procedure has to be repeated.
Always perform a pre-use check after zeroing the probe.
Zeroing for IRMA CO2 probes:
Zeroing needs to be performed ONLY when an offset in gas values is observed, or when an
unspecified accuracy message is displayed.
Allow 10 seconds for warm up of the IRMA CO2 probe after power on and after changing the
IRMA airway adapter before proceeding with the Zeroing Procedure. The green LED on the
probe will be blinking for approximately 5 seconds while zeroing is in progress.
Zeroing for IRMA AX+ probes:
Zeroing should be performed every time the IRMA airway adapter is replaced, or whenever an
offset in gas values or an unspecified gas accuracy message is displayed.
Allow 30 seconds for warm up of the IRMA AX+ probes after power on and after changing the
IRMA airway adapter before proceeding with the Zeroing Procedure. The green LED on the
probe will be blinking for approximately 5 seconds while zeroing is in progress.
18.3.2.4 Cleaning
The IRMA probe can be cleaned using a cloth moistened with maximum 70% ethanol or
maximum 70% isopropyl alcohol.
Remove the disposable IRMA airway adapter prior to cleaning the IRMA probe.
CAUTION
1The IRMA oxygen sensor cell and IRMA airway adapters are non-sterile devices. Do
not autoclave the devices as this will damage them.
2Never sterilize or immerse the IRMA probe in liquid.
18.3.2.5 MAC Calculation
The MAC value may be calculated and displayed by using end-tidal (ET) gas concentrations
according to the following formula:
MAC=%ET(AA1)/X(AA1)+%ET(AA2)/X(AA2)+%ET(N2O)/100
X(AA): HAL=0.75%, ENF=1.7%, ISO=1.15%, SEV=2.05%, DES=6.0%

18.9 N2O and O2 Compensations
The following models need O2 compensation: IRMA AX+, IRMA CO2, ISA AX+, ISA CO2. The
following models need N2O compensation: IRMA CO2 and ISA CO2. For the compensation
details, please refer to the following table.
O2 Range SetO2 Range
0~30 vol% 21
30~70 vol% 50
70~100 vol% 85
N2O Range Set N2O Range
0~30 vol% 0
30~70 vol% 50
18.10 Effects of humidity
The partial pressure and the volume percentage of CO2, N2O, O2 and anesthetic agents depend on
the amount of water vapor in the measured gas. The O2 measurement will be calibrated to show
20.8 vol% at actual ambient temperature and humidity level, instead of showing actual partial
pressure. 20.8 vol% O2 corresponds to the actual O2 concentration in room air with 0.7 vol% H2O
concentration (at 1013 hPa this equals for example 25°C and 23% RH). The measurement of CO2,
N2O, and anesthetic agents (e.g. all gases measured by the IR-bench) will always show the actual
partial pressure at the current humidity level.
In the alveoli of the patient, the breathing gas is saturated with water vapor at body temperature
(BTPS).
When the breathing gas flows through the sampling line, the gas temperature will adapt to
ambient before reaching the gas analyzer. As the NOMO section removes all condensed water, no
water will reach the ISA gas analyzer. The relative humidity of the sampled gas will be about
95%.
If CO2 values at BTPS are required, the following equation can be used:
where:
EtCO2 = EtCO2 value sent from ISA [vol %]
Pamb = Ambient pressure sent from ISA [kPa]
3.8 = Typical partial pressure of water vapor condensed between patient circuit and ISA [kPa]
EtCO2(BTPS) = EtCO2 gas concentration at BTPS [vol%]
O2 is assumed to be room air calibrated at a humidity level of 0.7 vol% H2O.

NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is
affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
a Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless)
telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV
broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic
environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be
considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the Patient Monitor is
used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the Patient Monitor should be
observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional
measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or relocating the Patient Monitor.
b Over the frequency range 150kHz to 80MHz, field strengths should be less than 3V/m.
B.4 Recommended Separation Distances
Recommended separation distances between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the monitor
The monitor is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the monitor can help prevent
electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile
RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the monitor as recommended below,
according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.
