Main Display The main presents the current status, and allows for modifying some parameters directly using the function keys. The main display is divided into five functional areas and a function key area. The upper area is the Logging and Scenario status area. The log status and clock is presented here together with the Remote Control battery status and a Radio reception indicator. The ECG section is indicating Running Rhythm on the first line, Waiting Rhythm on the second line. “Defib. Enabled” allows change to Waiting rhythm when a defibrillatory shock is given. Pacing capture can be enabled / disabled and if enabled the threshold for capture can be set. The sounds section control the selected Lung, Heart, Bowel and _Vocal (spoken) sounds. Volume of each sound can be controlled individually. The BP Section shows the set BP, pulse strength and the Korotkoff sound volume. The breathing rate sections shows the set breathing rate. At the bottom of the display are the function keys menus. The functions will change dependent on which function area is selected. Using left to right navigation keys, highlight the desired functional area of the display. Once the desired function area is highlighted, use the up and down navigation keys to scroll through to the desired selection. Once the desired selection is highlighted, push the OK key to edit the settings. When the selection is complete, press the “OK” button to implement the new selection and return to the main display. To cancel the selection, press “C” and return to the main display with the previous setting unchanged. -4- Programming ECG Set Running Rhythm On the main display; using the left / right navigation keys highlight the ECG functional area and press the OK key to edit the rhythm. Note: you are also able to change some functions using the function keys instead of entering the functional area: • “HR+” and “HR–“ Changes the heart rate up and down. • “Extrasyst.” generates an extrasystole of the selected kind (on Sinus rhythms only), immediately after the button is pushed. If no extrasystole is selected, a Unifocal PVC will be generated. The ECG rhythm can be selected using the Up / Down keys or the numerical keys. The arrow on the bottom right of the selection field indicates that there are more selections than presented on the screen. Rate and QRS type can be modified using the function keys, OR By highlighting the QRS or Rate area using the Left / Right keys and then use the numeric pad or up/ down keys. QRS types can be set to A through G: Available rates are dependent on the selected rhythm. Setting PEA sets the BP to 0. Set Waiting Rhythm On the main display; using the left to right navigation keys highlight the ECG functional area and scroll down to Waiting rhythm; push the OK key to edit the selection. Select a Waiting rhythm in the same manner that the Running rhythm is selected. Not that Waiting rhythm has “None” as an option. When a Waiting rhythm is selected, 2 additional function keys appear on the ECG menu: • “Activate” Actives the Waiting rhythm, substituting the Running with the waiting. • “Parox.” Activates the Waiting rhythm, and exchanges the Waiting rhythm with the running. -5- Enable / Disable the Effect of Defibrillation When “Defib. Enabled” is selected; the Waiting rhythm will be automatically activated and replace the Running rhythm when a shock is delivered to the manikin. When the “Defib Enable” field is selected, Enable /Disable is selected by toggling the “OK” button or the function key labeled “Disable” / “Enable” Pacing If pacing is enabled, pacing pulses on the manikin with a current higher or equal to the set threshold will activate heartbeats. Pacing threshold can be adjusted directly from the main display using the “Thres. +/-“ function keys when the “Pacing” field is selected. Pressing the “OK” button, the Pacing threshold can also be adjusted in a sub menu. Threshold can be adjusted using the Up/ Down keys, the “Thres.+/-“ keys (steps of 10) or entered directly using the numerical keys. -6- Sounds On the main display; using the left / right navigation keys highlight the sounds functional area. The sound volume for the selected / highlighted sound can be set directly from the main display using the “-“ and “+” function keys. The selected Vocal sound can be activated using the function key. (When Cough is the selected vocal sound, the function key would be labeled “Cough”.) The “Recall” function key reactivates the previously selected sound for the highlighted sound category. Set Lung Sounds Normally Right and Left lung sounds are highlighted together indicating that the sound for the right and left lung is set the same (bilateral). To set Right and Left sounds individually, press the “Set Unilat.” function key. When the sounds are reset to bilateral, the sound in the Right lung will be used for both lungs. To alter a lung sound, highlight the sound and press the “OK” button. This will activate the sound selection sub-menu. The sounds can be selected using the Up/Down keys or using the numeric keypad. The arrow on the bottom right of the selection field indicates that there are more selections than presented on the screen. Volumes can be set using the “+” / “-“ function keys, or by highlighting the volume field and use the up/down keys or the numeric keypad. “Set LL” and “Set RL” function keys are alternative ways to select individual (unilateral) lung sounds. Press “OK” to implement the new selection And return to the main screen. Press “C” to return without any changes. Set Heart Sounds Heart sounds are set in the same manner as Lung sounds. On the main display; using the left to right navigation keys highlight the sounds functional area. Scroll down to the Heart sound. Use the “+”/”-“ keys to alter volume directly, or “Recall” to recall the previously selected Heart sound. Press the OK key to get to the Heart sounds selection menu. Set Bowel Sounds Bowel sounds are set in the same manner as Lung and Heart sounds. On the main display; using the left to right navigation keys highlight the sounds functional area. Scroll down to the Bowel sound. Use the “+”/”-“ keys to alter volume directly, or “Recall” to recall the previously selected Bowel sound. Press the OK key to get to the Bowel sounds selection menu. -7- Set Vocal Sounds On the main display; using the left to right navigation keys highlight the Sounds functional area. Notice that whenever the Sounds area is selected, the selected Vocal sound can be activated using the Function key. Most sounds are activated once. The continuous sounds are toggled on off. To alter the Vocal sound, scroll down and highlight “Vocal”. Note that when “Vocal” is selected, the three last used sounds are available as function keys. Use function keys to activate a new sound directly or press the OK key to get to the Vocal sounds selection menu. Some vocal sounds are continuous. A continuous sound will be repeated until the sound is selected again or another sound is activated. Use the “+”/”-“ keys to alter volume directly. Blood Pressure and Pulse Blood pressure and pulse are related as described in specifications. The “Normal” pulse can in addition be adjusted to 3 levels, Weak, Normal or Strong. If the pulse is set to be normally weak, a weak pulse because of low BP will be almost impossible to detect. If an ECG rhythm with no BP is set (i.e. VF, or Asystole) as the Running rhythm, BP will automatically be set to 0/0. The BP is not automatically set back to normal if a perfusing rhythm is chosen. Set Blood Pressure On the main display, using the left to right navigation keys highlight the Blood Pressure functional area. Press the OK key to activate the BP menu or adjuste BP directly using the BP +/- function keys: Using the BP+/- keys: When both Systolic and Diastolic are highlighted, both pressures will change and maintain difference. When systolic is highlighted, only systolic will change, but diastolic will be kept 10 mmHg below systolic. When diastolic is highlighted, only diastolic will change, but systolic will be kept 10 mmHg above diastolic. The Up/ Down keys are used to change selection. “Set PEA” function key will set BP to 0/0. “Reset PEA” will set the BP back to what it was before “Set PEA” was selected. Use the “+”/”-“ keys to alter volume of Korotkoff sounds directly. Pulse strength is indicated as “P:N” (Normal), “P:W” (Weak) or “P:S” (Strong) -8- Set BP menu: Use Left / Right keys to select function. Systolic and Diastolic BP can be adjusted using the Up/ Down keys, the “BP +/-“ keys or entered directly using the numerical keys. If running rhythm is VF or Asystole, BP cannot be set. Volume can be adjusted using the “+/-“ or the Up/ Down keys or directly through the numeric keypad. Auscultatory Gap (Korotkoff sound disappears in part of Phase II) can be toggled On / Off using the Up/ Down keys. Pulse strength can be adjusted using the Up/ Down keys. Breathing Rate Breathing rate is automatically set to 0 is BP is 0. The breathing rate is not automatically set back to normal if a BP set. Breathing rate can be adjusted between 0 and 60 breaths per minute. Set Breathing Rate On the main display; using the left to right navigation keys highlight the Breathing rate functional area. Press the OK key to activate the Breathing rate menu or adjust BR directly using the BR +/- function keys. “Set Apnea” function key will set breathing rate to 0. “Reset Apnea” will restore the previously set breathing rate. When Breathing rate is 0, the function key “1 Breath” becomes available. This function will activate one breath cycle, allowing for generating breath sounds on the manikin in synchronism with forced ventilations. Breathing rate can be adjusted using the Up/ Down keys the “BR +/-“ keys (steps of 5) or entered directly using the numerical keys. -9- Log The top section of the main display controls log and scenario. The VitalSim automatically generates a log of events from it is turned on. Elapsed time and name for the current log is displayed in the upper left corner of the display. Unless saved, the log will be erased when the Base unit is turned off. The Log / Scenario section have controls for Pause and Resume, Restart and Save logs. In addition it is possible to log “Manual” events from the Remote Control. Saved logs can be retrieved later using the VitalSim PC utility program. Logs can be transferred to the PC for permanent storage, addition of comments and printing. Log Controls On the main display; using the left to right navigation keys highlight the logging functional area. Press the OK key to activate the Log Control menu or select functions directly from function keys. Pause. Stops the clock. Any events or changes in settings will not be Resume logging and clock. logged. Restart. Restart the log. Erase current log. Save Log. Saves the current log. Log is given a default name by VitalSim, “Logxx”, where xx is a sequential number. This name can be modified, using the backspace function key and the alphanumeric keyboard. Up to 25 logs can be saved. Logs are erased when transferred to PC, or they can be erased using the “Clear All Logs” function. Log Events The Event function allows for entering an event into the log. The events are chosen from a list of up to 14 events stored in the Remote Control. To log an event, select the event using the arrow keys, and press the OK button. The first seven events are preprogrammed. They can be deleted using the “Delete” function key then be reprogrammed by the user. The “Default” function key restores the factory setting of preprogrammed events. The last seven events are left open (“---“) for the user to program. To program an empty event, highlight the event and press the “Add” function key. Enter the event name using the alphanumeric keys and the t backspace function key. The shift key is functional. Up to 13 characters can be used for the event name. - 10 - Scenario The VitalSim can run preprogrammed scenarios, generated on a PC-based scenario builder program. These scenarios can be transferred too the Base unit using the VitalSim PC utility program. Execution of a scenario is started using the “Scen” button on the Remote Control. Logs and Scenarios are synchronized in the following manner: • A new log is started when a scenario is started. • Pause and Resume affects both scenario and log. To start a scenario, press the “Scen” button. It usually takes a little time to transfer all the scenario information to the Remote Control. Select the desired scenario and press OK. The scenario will start, the clock is set to 0 and a new log is started. The current log will be erased. - 11 - Specifications Remote Control: Batteries: Battery life: LCD display: Base Unit: Batteries: DC input: Sound input: Cuff pressure input: RF Communication: Frequency ranges.
