FUNCTION
The G3 Multi-Parameter Patient Monitor can be used to monitor the major parameters such as
electrocardiogram (ECG), body temperature (TEMP), impedance respiration (RESP), oxygen
saturation (SpO2), invasive blood pressure (IBP), noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) and CO2
(EtCO2 and FiCO2). It integrates the parameter measurement, display and record export as a whole,
which forms a compact and portable monitor.
The monitor is capable of monitoring the following parameters:
Electrocardiogram (ECG): heart rate (HR), 7 (or 3) leads ECG waveforms and ST segment
analysis.
Noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP): systolic pressure (SYS), diastolic pressure (DIA) and
mean arterial pressure (MAP).
Body temperature (TEMP): temperature of channel 1 (T1), temperature of channel 2 (T2)
and temperature difference between the two channels (T).
Pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2): SpO2, pulse rate (PR) and SpO2 plethysmogram.
Respiration: respiration rate (RR) and respiration (impedance respiration or nasal tube
respiration) waveform.
Invasive blood pressure (IBP): 2 channels of IBP waveforms, systolic pressure (SYS),
diastolic pressure (DIA) and mean pressure (MEAN).
Carbon dioxide (CO2): end-tidal carbon dioxide (EtCO2), fractional inspiratory carbon
dioxide (FiCO2) and CO2 waveform.

The capacity of the battery is limited. When the battery capacity is too low, a flashing red symbol
shows in the status bar. At this moment, the AC power shall be applied to the monitor.

NOTE
Take out the battery before the monitor is transported or will not be used for a long time.

WARNING
Keep the battery out of the reach of children.
Only use the battery specified by the manufacturer.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Conditioning a Battery
A battery should be conditioned before it is used for the first time. A battery conditioning cycle is
one uninterrupted discharge of the battery. Batteries should be conditioned regularly to maintain
their useful life. Condition a battery once when it is used or stored for two months, or when its run
time becomes noticeably shorter.
To condition a battery, follow this procedure:
1. Disconnect the monitor from the patient and stop all monitoring or measuring.
2. Insert the battery in need of conditioning in the battery slot of the monitor.
3. Apply AC power to the monitor and allow the battery to charge uninterrupted for 10 hours.
4. Remove AC power and allow the monitor to run from the battery until it shuts off.
5. Apply AC power again to the monitor and allow the battery to charge uninterrupted for 10
hours.
6. This battery is now conditioned and the monitor can be returned to work.

Checking a Battery
The performance of a rechargeable battery may deteriorate over time. To check the performance of a
battery, follow this procedure:
1. Disconnect the monitor from the patient and stop all monitoring or measuring.
2. Apply AC power to the monitor and allow the battery to charge uninterrupted for 10 hours.
3. Remove AC power and allow the monitor to run from the battery until it shuts off.
4. The operating time of battery reflects its performance directly.
Please replace the battery or contact with the maintenance personnel if its operating time is
significantly lower than the specified time.

NOTE
30
Life expectancy of a battery depends on how frequent and how long it is used. For a
properly maintained and stored lead-acid or lithium ion battery, its life expectancy is
about 2 or 3 years respectively. For more aggressive use models, life expectancy can be
less. We recommend replacing lead acid batteries every 2 years and lithium ion batteries
every 3 years.
The battery might be damaged or malfunctioned if its operating time is too short after
being fully charged. The operating time depends on the configuration and operation. For
example, measuring NIBP more frequently will also shorten the operating time.

BATTERY RECYCLING
When a battery has visual signs of damage, or no longer holds a charge, it should be replaced.
Remove the old battery from the monitor and recycle it properly. To dispose of the batteries, follow
local laws for proper disposal.

WARNING
Do not disassemble batteries, or dispose of them in fire, or cause them to short circuit.
They may ignite, explode, leak or heat up, causing personal injury.

patient appears abnormal, or mechanical or electrical problems occur to the monitor.

ALARM CATEGORIES
The alarms are divided into two categories:
Physiological alarms
A physiological alarm either indicates that a monitored physiological parameter is out of specified
limit or indicates an abnormal patient condition.
Prompt information
Besides the physiological alarm, the monitor also displays the information related to the system. For
example, if a parameter module is turned on but the required leads or sensor are not connected, the
monitor will prompt accordingly, such as Lead Off in the ECG and RESP channels, Sensor Off
in the PLETH channel, or No Cuff under the NIBP parameter, etc. Prompt information is usually
displayed in the channels area. But the prompt information relating to NIBP is displayed under the
NIBP value in the parameters area.

ALARM MODES
When an alarm occurs, the monitor raises the users attention by the following audible or visual
indications.
Visual alarms
When a measured physiological parameter value exceeds the preset alarm limit, the alarm indicator
on the front panel flashes in red once a second.
Audible alarms
When a measured physiological parameter value exceeds the preset alarm limit, the monitor
phonates a triple-beep tone each three seconds to prompt users.

CHAPTER 12: ECG
MONITORING

OVERVIEW
This Monitor adopts 5-lead (or 3-lead) ECG cable to collect the ECG signal from the patient, and it
can simultaneously display seven (or three) leads of ECG signal. ECG channel displayed on the top
part of the screen is the major channel of the ECG signal, and its lead is called the major lead. The
Monitor calculates the heart rate value and controls the gain (if set in automatic mode) according to
the data of the main lead. All leads adopt the same gain and same measurement mode. The Monitor
can separately check whether the connection of a lead has fallen off, and display the promt
information in corresponding channel.
1.Measurement of ECG
The electro-chemical activity of Excitable cell will produce physiological current
to cardiac muscle before the mechanical shrinkage of heart, the close movement current
produced by the process of heart exciting will flow within the human body and transport
to all parts, it results in the different voltage on the different surface of body. The clinic
Electrocardiography is to record the voltage difference real time.
Figure 2.1 is the Electrocardiography

1.1Electrode of ECG
Current within human body is conducted by hydronium, while its by electron in
metal conductor, so there should be a conversion medium to convert the hydronium
current to electron current, which will help realize the necessary connection between the
human body and patient monitor, electrode is to play the role to realize the
transformation. The widely used electrode for clinic monitoring is AgAg.Cl disposable
electrode.

1.2. ECG leads


The definition of lead is the periodically changing waveform with heart beating
caused by the voltage between two or more than two surface parts of human body.
One lead waveform can only reflect one aspect of the heart movement since the
heart is solid, so its necessary to record several leads waveforms to reflect the complete
movement of heart from different respects during the process of diagnosing. Below table
is the definition for the different leads of ECG:

Our patient monitor adopts five leads ECG cable to collect signal of patients ECG. It
displays synchronously seven ECG waveforms. The fixed channel of ECG displayed on
the upper position is the main one of ECG signal, we call the ECG lead which the main
channel choose main lead, patient monitor calculate the value of heart rate and control
the gain based on it (if them monitor is set to model of Auto gain). We have the same
gain control and test mode to all leads, the patient monitor is able to check whether the
corresponding electrode of leads is fall off and display it on screen.

2.Monitoring of ECG electrode


It can get mostly twelve selectable ECG leads if use five leads ECG cable to monitor patients
ECG, the ECG waveform of this lead of patient will be displayed when the leads is set as valid.

The ECG cable includes two parts: main stem cable which connected to patient monitor and
Lead cable electrode which connected to patients, usually the ECG cable has five electrodes, please
note below items when place the electrodes to patients:

1 How to choose and use electrodes

It usually chooses Ag-AgCL one-off electrode, please make sure the electrodes are during the
period of validity. It will result in inaccurate data if use the incompetent electrodes.

2 Pretreatment of skin

Its necessary to pre-treat the skin of patient to ensure the good touch between electrode and
patient since the skin is not a good conductor.

(1) Clean the skin with soap and water instead of aether and alcohol since the later two will
increase the resistance of skin.

(2) Shave off the fur of body where to place the electrode if necessary.

(3) Rub skin to increase the blood floor of capillary vessel of organization and get ride of the horn
and grease.

(4) Place the electrode to patient, please apply conductive cream before the electrode is put to
patient if the electrode do not have conductive cream.

(5) Connect the electrode and ECG cable.

(6) Make sure the connection of patient monitor power.

72
ECG MONITORING
In order to monitor the patients ECG, we use a five-electrode ECG cable by which we can get more
than 12 selective ECG leads. If a lead is effective, the corresponding waveform will be displayed in
the channels area.
The ECG cable includes two parts: the main cable connecting the Monitor and the electrode lead line
connecting the patient.

PREPARATION
1. Select electrode
Generally, the electrode for monitoring is disposable electrode made from Ag-AgCl (silver -
silver chloride). But before use, you shall confirm that the electrode is within the valid date. If
the unqualified electrode is used, it will lead to inaccurate monitoring result.
2. Skin pretreatment
Because the skin is not a good conductor, if you want to gain good contact between the skin
and the electrode, before installing the electrode, you shall carry out skin pretreatment at first.
(1) If necessary, shave hair from skin at choosen site.
(2) Rub the skin to accelerate the blood flow in the blood capillary of organs and remove the
horny layer and greases of the skin.
(3) Thoroughly cleanse the site with mild soap and water solution, but do not use the aether
or pure alcohol, because it will increase skin resistance.
(4) Dry the skin completely before applying the electrodes.
3. Attach the ECG lead to the electrodes prior to placement.
4. Place the electrode on the patient. If the conductive ointment is not applied to the electrodes,
apply it before the placement.
5. Connect the electrode lead to the patient cable.
6. Confirm the Monitor is powered on and is ready for monitoring.

ELECTRODE PLACEMENT
(1) For the placement of the fivelead ECG electrode, refer to the figure as shown in Figure 12-1.

Figure 12-1 Positions of 5-Lead Electrode Placement

NOTE
73
The sign name and color of the electrode shown above is American standard, while inside
the brackets ( ) is European standard.

White (right arm or RA) electrode: near the right shoulder, directly below the clavicle.
Black (left arm or LA) electrode: near the left shoulder, directly below the clavicle.
Green (right leg or RL) electrode: on the right abdomen.
Red (left leg or LL) electrode: on the left abdomen.
Brown (chest or V) electrode: on the chest.
(2) When using five leads, attach the chest (V) electrode to one of the following positions
indicated in Figure 12-2:

Figure 12-2 Positions of Chest Electrode


In order to accurately install and monitor the "V" lead, it is very important to determine the
fourth rib position, which is determined according to the first rib position. Because of the
patients different bodily forms, it is difficult to accurately feel out the first rib position. At
first, feel out the small protruding body called the "Lewis angle", where the breastbone
diaphysis and manubrium sterni joint. Then determine the second rib position, the protuberant
section of the breastbone indicates the joint of the second rib, right under here is the position
of the second rib position, from the chest to feel down until the fourth rib position is
determined.
Attach the chest (V) electrode to one of the following positions indicated in Figure 12-2:
V1: On the 4th intercostal space at the right sterna margin.
V2: On the 4th intercostal space at the left sterna margin.
V3: Midway between V2 and V4 electrodes.
V4: On the 5th intercostal space at the left clavicular line.
V5: On the left anterior axillary line, horizontal with V4 electrode.
V6: On the left middle axillary line, horizontal with V4 electrode.
V3R-V7R: On the right side of the chest in positions corresponding to those on the left.
VE: Over the xiphoid.
When attaching the chest electrode to the back of a patient, place it at one of the following
sites:
V7: On the 5th intercostal space at the left posterior axillary line of the back.
V7R: On the 5th intercostal space at the right posterior axillary line of the back.

(3) Electrode placement for pacemaker patient

74
The pacemaker lead can pick up the best ECG waveform from the pacemaker patient. At this
time, the electrode is usually placed on the mammillary line, the white and black electrodes
are placed as shown in Figure 12-3.

Red (green)

White (red) Black (yellow)

Figure 12-3 Positions of Pacemaker Patients Electrode

(4) Electrode placement for surgical patient


Electrode placement during surgery is dependent on the type of surgery being performed. For
example, with open chest surgery, the electrodes might be placed laterally on the chest or on
the back. In the operating room, artifact can sometimes affect the ECG waveform due to the
use of electrosurgery equipment. To help reduce this, place the electrodes on the right and left
shoulders, the right and left sides near the stomach, and place the chest lead on the left side at
mid-chest. Avoid placing the electrodes on the upper arms. This will cause the ECG
waveform to be too small.

NOTE
Select the place with stable ECG signal or little inference of skeleton activities to place the
electrodes.

WARNING
In order to ensure the patients safety, all leads shall be connected to the patient.
The electrode shall be fixed properly to ensure the reliable contact of the conductor with
skin.
Interference from a non-grounded instrument near the patient and ESU interference can
cause inaccuracy of the ECG waveform.
When using Electrosurgery equipment, never place the ECG electrodes near the
grounding plate of the Electrosurgery device. This will cause a great deal of interference
with the ECG signal. The patient leads should be placed in a position that is equal
distance from the Electrosurgery electrotome and the grounding plate to avoid burns to
the patient.
Always dispose of, or recycle electrodes properly to prevent from environment
contamination.
Verify the lead fault detection prior to the start of monitoring. Unplug the ECG cable
from the ECG connector, the flashing error message Lead Off will be displayed in the
75
corresponding ECG channel.
Skin irritation may result from the continuous application of the ECG electrodes. These
should be checked each day. If there is an indication of excess skin irritation, replace the
electrodes or change the location of the electrodes every 24 hours.

ECG CHANNEL
MAIN LEAD CHANNEL
The top part of the channels area that cannot be changed to any other channels is called as the main
lead channel, shown as below:

Main lead label gain mode gain measurement mode


Waveform speed ECG waveform scale range scale
Select the main lead label, the ECG channel menu shows as the following.

Lead
Select this button, the main lead switches among I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF and V. In order to
get accurate heart rate and gain control performance, the doctor shall select the lead of large
range and little noise as the main lead.
In order to avoid emerging leads repeatedly, when the lead in the current channel is switched,
the leads in the other channels will be changed automatically.
Gain Mode
Select this button, the gain mode switches between AUTO and MANUAL modes.
Gain means the magnification times for the ECG waveform signal. This monitor has five
magnification times that are 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2 and 4. The 1 is one time magnification, under
which the range of the scale at the left side of the ECG waveform is 1mV. Then under
the condition of 2 magnification, the range of the scale is 0.5mV, and so on. Detailed
data refers to the following table:

Gain factor AUTO MANUAL Scale range


1/4 Adopted Applicable 4 mV
1/2 Adopted Applicable 2 mV
1 Adopted Applicable 1 mV
2 Adopted Applicable 0.5 mV
4 Adopted Applicable 0.25 mV

76
Under 1 ECG and Huge Digit display format, the length of the scale is 10mm. The
waveform of 10mm diaplayed under 1 magnification times means the ECG signal is 1mV,
under 2 means 0.5mV.

NOTE
All leads including the main lead and other leads adopt the same gain.

This Monitor provides two methods to regulate the ECG waveform range:
AUTO mode: Under the AUTO mode, according to the main lead waveform data, the
Monitor will automatically regulate the gain to amplify the ECG waveform of the main
lead without the distortion as possible. The defect of this mode is slow regulation speed.
MANUAL mode: Under this mode, the Monitor doesnt regulate the ECG gain
automatically. At this time, the ECG gain is regulated via the Adjust Gain button. The
feature of this mode is fast response that the waveform will change immediately after the
gain is regulated, and the waveform can be amplified to a distortion status to display.
Adjust Gain
Manually regulates the ECG gain. After selecting this button, regulate the gain via the rotating
mouse. Rotate counterclockwise, the gain and waveform range become smaller, while rotate
clockwise, the gain and waveform range become larger. After the accomplishment of the
regulation, press down the rotating mouse again to exit the gain adjusting mode.
Mode
The Mode means the filter bandwidth of the ECG channel. The monitor has three modes:
diagnosis (DIA), monitoring (MON) and operation (OPR). Under the DIA mode, the filter
bandwidth is the widest, and the detailed information of the ECG signal can be got. The more
detailed information is helpful to more accurately judge the status of the ECG signal. But when
the importation of the detailed information, the environmental noise, such as HF electrotome,
may be imported too. The noise mixes with the real ECG signal, so that the ECG signal cannot
be distinguished. In order to adapt to the noise interference situation, the Monitor also provides
two measurement modes, namely the MON mode and the OPR mode. Under these two modes,
narrower bandwidth is adopted to measure and gain smoother signal. The user can make
choices according to the exact situations, and the comparing data are as followings:

Mode Bandwidth Details Noise


DIA 0.05Hz~100Hz Most Most
MON 0.5Hz~40Hz Medium Medium
OPR 1.0Hz~25Hz Least Least

NOTE
All leads including the main lead and other leads adopt the same mode.

Waveform Speed
Select this button to regulate the waveform speed for parameters relating to ECG, including all
ECG channels and PLETH channel. It has four speeds such as 6.25 mm/s, 12.5 mm/s, 25 mm/s
and 50 mm/s.

HR Source

Auto: The monitor determines the heart rate source depending on the signal quality. ECG
takes priority of SpO2. Only when the ECG signal is bad and cannot be analyzed, the heart
rate source is SpO2. If the ECG signal becomes normal, the HR source changes to ECG
automatically.
ECG: HR is always calculated from ECG.
SpO2: If the ECG signal is seriously interfered, you can select SpO2, which means PR will
be derived from PLETH waveform. In this case, PR (SpO2) is displayed instead of
ECG (I, II, etc.) while the PR reading is displayed below. The monitor activates pulse
beeps instead of heartbeat beeps.
The heart rate source mark and heart rate label clearly show the current heart rate source. The
list is as the following:

Label Color of the heart rate value Heart rate source mark Source
HR Green I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF, V ECG

CHAPTER 13:
RESP MONITORING

OVERVIEW
This Monitor measures out the respiration movement waveform by the ECG cable with the
impedance method. This respiration movement waveform is used to calculate the respiration rate and
analyse the respiration status.
The Monitor can measure three lead respiratory waveforms such as I, II or III lead, of which, the II
lead is generally used. Because of the different signal strength, the Monitor provides AUTO and
MANUAL modes to adjust the gain. The respiratory waveform will be clear and without distortion if
an appropriate gain is adopted.

ELECTRODE PLACEMENT
The impedance respiration method of this Monitor is to monitor the patients respiration by the

81
impedance variation between the two electrocardiogram electrodes of I, II or III lead. Since the same
electrodes are used for ECG and RESP monitoring, the electrode placement is very important. Some
patients, due to their clinical condition, expand their chest laterally, causing a negative intrathoracic
pressure. In these cases it is better to place the two electrodes used for RESP monitoring laterally in
the right axillary and left lateral chest areas, at the maximum point of the breathing movement, to
optimize the respiratory waveform.

NOTE
RESP monitoring is not recommended on very active patients, because it will cause false
alarms.
Place the red and white electrodes diagonally to optimize the respiration waveform.
Try to avoid placing the electrodes so the liver area and the ventricles of the heart are in
path between the electrodes used for respiration, to avoid cardiac artifact to overlay on
the ECG. This is particularly important when monitoring neonate patients.

MONITORING INTERFACE
The RESP monitoring displays a RESP waveform in channels area and the measured respiration rate
value in parameters area.

RESP CHANNEL

Principal of impedance respiration monitoring

The movement of the thorax in the moment of the respiration will cause the variation
of the human bodys impedance, the range of the variation is about 0.13, G3 Monitor
immits the human body a safe electric current which is 0.55mA by using two electrode
of the ECGlead with the 20K100KHZ carrier frequency sinusoidal constant current,
and then mesures out the difference of respiration impendace from electrode LLRA .
This difference of the respiration impedance shows the dynamic waveform of respiration
Using the impedance respiration method, G3 Monitor can measure out the human body
respiration movement waveform by using the electrocardiogram lead line, and this
respiration movement waveform can be used to the calculation of the human body
82
respiration rate and the analyse of the human body respiration status.

The G3 Monitor measure three lead respiration waveforms according to the selection
such as I, II, III, the II lead is generally used. Because of the different signal strength, the
Monitor provides two kinds of gain adjustment functions : automatic adjustment and
manual adjustment, it can make the respiration waveform clear and without distortion by
adopting appropriate gain.

The electrode connection

The impedance respiration method of this Monitor is to monitor the patients respiration
by the impedance variation between the two electrocardiogram electrodes. The
respiration monitoring is realized via the electrocardiogram I, II or III lead and their
corresponding electrodes, so no additional electrodes are required, and the installation
of the electrode is very important. For some patient, because of their clinical situation,
the horizontal expansion of the thoracic cage leads to the negativity thoracic cage
internal pressure, under this situation, it is better to put the two respiration electrodes at
the central line of the right armpit or the most active area on the left side of the thoracic
cage when breathing, so that the optimum respiration wave is gained.

We suggest installing five lead electrodes for the respiration monitoring, as shown in
Figure 3.4
Notice
The respiration monitoring is not recommended to be used on the patient
who will move or be moved a lot, because it will lead to mis-alarm.
In order to obtain optimum respiration wave, the white and the red
electrodes shall be installled catercorner. Avoid putting the liver and the
ventricle on connecting line, which can avoid the false difference produced
by the heart coverage or pulsation blood flow, this is very important in the
using for neonate.

entangled, the tube has been blocked, you should replace it with a new one.

WARNING
The nasal tube is disposable, must not re-sterilize or reuse it.
Do not press or limit the nasal tube.
The nasal tube should be recycled or disposed of, complying with the local laws.

CHAPTER 15:
NIBP MONITORING

OVERVIEW
The non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) module measures blood pressure using the oscillometric
method. This monitor can be applied to adult, pediatric and neonate patients. Three measurements
are available: manual, auto and continuous. Each mode displays the systolic pressure (SYS), mean
arterial pressure (MAP) and diastolic pressure (DIA).

86
Manual: Pressing the NIBP key on the front panel starts a NIBP measurement.
Auto: The NIBP measurement is conducted automatically at a preset interval.
Continuous: The NIBP measurement is performed as many times as possible in five minutes.

Blood Pressure Measurement Principle

NIBP measurement adopts vibration method. The principle is to charge air to blood
pressure cuff to the degree that arteries are pressed completely and the blood flowing is
blocked. And while the cuff is deflated gradually, the arteries are in the process of utter
blocking, gradual loosing and unobstructing. In this process the artery pressure pulsation
will generate air oscillating waves in the cuff. Theoretic arithmetic and experiments
indicates that oscillating waves have defined correspondence with artery systolic blood
pressure, mean blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure. Hence systolic blood
pressure, mean blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure can be measured by
analyzing measurement results and pressure oscillating waves in the cuff.

When the blood pressure measurement process starts up, the Monitor charges the air
into the blood pressure cuff, the human body blood pressure, including the systolic blood
pressure, diastolic blood pressure and mean pressure are measured out via the sensors,
a measurement process is about 40 seconds.
There are three start-up methods for blood pressure measurement, one is manual

measurement mode, the other is automatic measurement mode, and the third is

consecutive measurement mode.

Notices of NIBP Measurement


1. Korotkoff Sound Method, widely-adopted in clinics, is similar to vibration method. But there are
87
many coherent defects in Korotkoff Sound Method. It primarily relies on the coordination between
mans vision and hearing, thus the method is rather subjective and unduplicated. Therefore the
results by Korotkoff Sound Method can not be applied to evaluate the results by vibration method.
2. Human arterial blood pressure is a changeable physiological parameter, related
with the patients emotion, psychological change, posture and position during the
measurement. So it should be considered in measurement and evaluation.
3. The vibration measurement bases on the oscillating waves in cuff, so the
oscillation from the outside and the movement of the patients arm will affect the
measurement results. The serious consequence is the failure in the measurement. It
needs measuring again.
The noninvasive blood pressure (NIBP) measurement adopts the succussion;
It is applicable to adult, pediatric and neonate.
The measurement mode: manual, automatic and consecutive. Each mode displays
systolic blood pressure, mean pressure and diastolic blood pressure.

MONITORING PROCEDURE
To perform NIBP measurement on a patient, follow the procedure as below:
1. Power on the monitor.
2. Check the patient type. If the patient type is incorrect, select a correct patient type in Patient
Information dialog box.
3. Plug the air hose in the NIBP cuff connector of the monitor.
4. Apply a cuff of proper size to the upper arm or the leg of the patient.
5. Connect the cuff with the air hose.
6. Press the NIBP key on the front panel to start the NIBP measurement.

CUFF SELECTION AND PLACEMENT


1. Identify the patient limb circumference.
2. Select appropriate cuff; limb circumference is identified on each cuff.
3. Verify the cuff is completely deflated; place cuff around extremity being used and make sure
the marking matches artery location.
4. Verify the cuff is not wrapped too tightly around the limb. Excessive tightness may cause
discoloration or ischemia of the extremities.
5. Make sure that the cuff edge falls within the range of the <-> mark. If it does not, use a larger
or smaller cuff that will fit better.

88
NOTE
The width of the cuff should be either 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
circle 50-80% of the limb. The wrong size cuff can cause erroneous readings. If the cuff
size is in question, use a larger cuff.
The limb chosen for taking the measurement should be placed at the same level as the
patient's heart. If this is not possible, use the following method to correct the
measurement result:
If the cuff is placed higher than the heart level, add 0.75mmHg (0.10 kPa) for each
centimeter of difference, or 1.9mmHg (0.25kPa) for each inch of difference.
If it is placed lower than the heart level, deduct 0.75 mmHg (0.10 kPa) for each
centimeter of difference, or 1.9mmHg (0.25kPa) for each inch of difference.
If you are in doubt about the accuracy of any reading(s), check the patient's vital signs by
an alternative method before checking the function of the monitor.

WARNING
Use only the specified accessories for monitoring, or it will lead to the malfunction of the
Monitor.
You must not perform NIBP measurements on patients with sickle-cell disease or under
any condition where the skin is damaged or expected to be damaged.
For a thrombasthemia patient, it is important to determine whether measurement of the
blood pressure shall be done automatically.
Ensure that the setting is correctly made when performing measurements on children.
Incorrect patient type setting may cause a danger to the patient because adult blood
pressure level is higher than children.
Before the measurement, you shall confirm your configuration is suitable to the patient
(adult, pediatric or neonate).
Do 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.
Auto non-invasive blood pressure measurements performed in long intervals may incur
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, change the position of the cuff on the patient or stop the
blood pressure measurements immediately.
Make sure the air tubing connecting the blood pressure monitor is not blocked, twisted,
or tangled.

89
MEASUREMENT LIMITATIONS
Non-invasive blood pressure measurement uses the oscillometric method of measurement. The
monitor detects the regular arterial pressure pulse. In some circumstances when the patient's
condition makes it difficult to detect this pulse, the measurement becomes unreliable and the
measurement time increases. You should be aware that the following conditions could interfere with
the measurement, make the measurement unreliable, prolong the measurement, or even make a
measurement impossible.
Patient movement: E.g.The patient is moving, shivering or jerking.
Cardiac arrhythmia: E.g.The patient's cardiac arrhythmia has caused an irregular heartbeat.
Heart-lung machine: E.g. Measurements will be impossible if the patient is connected to a
heart-lung machine.
Pressure changes: E.g.The patient's blood pressure is changing rapidly over the period of
time during which the arterial pressure pulses are being analyzed to obtain the measurement.
Severe shock: E.g.If the patient is in severe shock or hypothermia, reduced blood flow to the
peripheries will cause reduced pulsation of the arteries.
Heart rate extremes: The monitor is unable to perform pressure measurements at a heart rate
of less than 15 bpm and greater than 300 bpm.

MONITORING INTERFACE
The NIBP measurement does not produce any waveform. Instead, it displays the measurement result
in the parameters area as shown below.

91
FUNCTIONS
The NIBP monitoring has two functions, one is NIBP measurement, and the other is the
venipuncture function.

NIBP MEASUREMENT
When the NIBP measurement starts, the Monitor inflates the air into the cuff, and the SYS, DIA and
MAP are measured out via the sensor. A measurement process lasts about 40 seconds.
There are three NIBP measurement modes, one is manual mode, the other is auto mode, and the third
is continuous mode.

Manual mode
Select the Auto Manual button in the NIBP menu, if word MANUAL is displayed at the position ,
the manual mode is selected. In this mode, a NIBP measurement shall be started manually by
pressing the NIBP key on the front panel. Before manual NIBP measurement, the max cuff pressure
should be set to a proper value.

Auto mode
Select the Auto Manual button in the NIBP menu, if word AUTO is displayed at the position , the
auto mode is selected. In this mode, the monitor periodically starts the NIBP measurement
automatically at the preset time interval.
The auto mode has two statuses, one is the stay status. In this status, the clock at position stays,
and the auto measurement has not been started yet. The other status is the running status. In this
status, the clock at position runs, and the auto measurement has been started. The clock at
position indicates how much time still remains for the next measurement.
In the stay status, press the NIBP key to start the auto measurement. At this time, the clock at
position begins to run. Switching to the manual mode, then switching back to the auto mode can
stop the auto measurement. Pressing the NIBP key during the NIBP measurement can stop the
measurement and switch the running status to stay status.

Continuous mode
Selecting the Stat Test button in the NIBP menu starts a continuous measurement which is provided
for surgical or emergent patient. Its feature is that it continuously measures NIBP for five minutes
once it is started, and the measurement mode adopted is simpler than other modes. After five
minutes, the monitor restores to the status (auto or manual) before the continuous measurement.

NOTE
Whether in the auto or manual mode, pressing the NIBP key on the front panel will start
a NIBP measurement.
Pressing the NIBP key during the NIBP measurement stops the ongoing measurement and
deflates the cuff.

92
VENIPUNCTURE
Under the venipuncture mode, the monitor inflates the air into the cuff to a preset pressure, and
keeps the pressure during the preset time, then deflates.
Select the Venous Puncture button in the NIBP menu, the following dialog box pops up.

Venipuncture switch: Enables or disables the venipuncture.


Open: The venipuncture is turned on, the word VENOUS and the preset preasure are displayed
in the information prompt bar, shown as the figure below.
Close: The venipuncture is disabled.
Keeping pressure: The air inflating pressure.
Keeping time: From the air inflating time, until the air is deflated.

Patient type Pressure setting range Default pressure Maximum keeping time
Adult 20-120 mmHg 60 mmHg 170 s
Pediatric 20-80 mmHg 40 mmHg 170 s
Neonate 20-50 mmHg 30 mmHg 85 s

Select this key to confirm the setting.

Under the venipuncture mode, press the NIBP key to start and stop the air inflating.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING


Reusable blood pressure cuffs
The cuff is not suitable for dry-cleaned. Instead, it should be machine or hand washed. Hand
washing, may prolong the service life of the cuff. Before washing, remove the latex rubber bladder.
Allow the cuff to dry thoroughly after washing, and then reinsert the rubber bladder. The cuff can be
disinfected by means of conventional autoclaving, gas, or radiation disinfection in hot air ovens, or
sterilized by immersion in decontamination solutions. Remember to remove the rubber bladder if
you use this method.

93
To replace the rubber bladder in the cuff:
1. Place the bladder on top of the cuff so the rubber tubes line up with the large opening on the
long side of the cuff.
2. Roll the bladder lengthwise and insert it into the opening on the long side of the cuff.
3. Hold the tubes and the cuff and shake the complete cuff until the bladder is in position.
4. Thread the rubber tubes from inside the cuff, and out through the small hole under the internal
flap.
Disposable blood pressure cuffs
Disposable cuffs are intended for single patient use only. Do not sterilize or use autoclave
sterilization for disposable cuffs. But they can be washed with a mild soap and water solution to
control the infection.

NOTE
Disposable blood pressure cuffs must be recycled or disposed of properly, complying with
the local laws.

WARNING
Do not press or limit the rubber tube on the cuff.
Do not allow the water or detergent liquid get inside the NIBP connection, otherwise the
monitor may be damaged.
When a reusable cuff is not connected to the monitor or is being cleaned, avoid splashing
liquid into the rubber tube or the monitor inadvertently.

CHAPTER 17:
SpO2 MONITORING

OVERVIEW
SpO2 measurement is based on two principles: Firstly, oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin differ
in their absorption of red and infrared light. Secondly, the volume of arterial blood in tissue changes
during the pulse. A monitor determines SpO2 (oxygen saturation) by passing red and infrared light
into an arteriolar bed and measuring changes in light absorption during the pulsatile cycle. Red and
infrared low-voltage light-emitting diodes (LEDs) in the sensor serve as light sources, a photodiode
100
serves as the photo detector.
Because oxyhemoglobin and deoxyhemoglobin differ in light absorption, the amount of red and
infrared light absorbed by blood is related to hemoglobin oxygen saturation. To identify the oxygen
saturation of arterial hemoglobin, the monitor uses the pulsatile nature of arterial flow. During
systole, a new pulse of arterial blood enters the vascular bed, and the blood volume and light
absorption increase. During diastole, the blood volume and light absorption reach their lowest point.
The monitor bases its SpO2 measurements on the difference between maximum and minimum
absorption (i.e., measurements at systole and diastole). By doing so, it focuses on light absorption by
pulsatile arterial blood, eliminating the effects of nonpulsatile absorbers such as tissue, bone, and
venous blood.
The monitor determines SpO2 and pulse rate by passing two wavelengths of light, one red and one
infrared, through body tissue to a photodetector. During measurement, the signal strength resulting
from each light source depends on the color and thickness of the body tissue, the probe placement,
the intensity of the light sources, and the absorption of the arterial and venous blood (including the
time varying effects of the pulse) in the body tissue (Refer to Figure 17-1).

OFOPERATION

The monitor processes these signals, separating the time invariant parameters (tissue thickness, skin
color, light intensity, and venous blood) from the time variant parameters (arterial volume and SpO2)
to identify the pulse rate and calculate oxygen saturation. Oxygen saturation calculations can be
performed because oxygen saturated blood predictably absorbs less red light than oxygen depleted
blood.
The monitor can be used under low perfusion with same accuracy as normal condition.

The monitor measures the patients SpO2 and displays:


Pulse rate (PR) value in the parameters area.
PLETH waveform and pulse intensity (perfusion indicator) in the channels area.
Oxygen saturation (SpO2 %) value in the parameters area.
As the following figure shows, the perfusion indicator (prorate with the pulse intensity) is located on
the left side of the PLETH waveform while the measured SpO2 value on the right. The SpO2 value is
displayed by percentage. Besides, the SpO2 label in the parameters area allows you to access the
SpO2 menu.

The PR value is displayed in the parameters area only if:
1. SpO2 is selected in the HR Source menu; or
2. Auto is selected in the HR Source menu and the received ECG signal is bad.

PRECAUTIONS

WARNING
The monitor can overestimate the SpO2 value in the presence of Hb-CO, Met-Hb or dye
dilution chemicals.
ES (Electrosurgery) equipment wire and SpO2 cable must not be tangled up. Carefully
route patient cabling to reduce the possibility of patient entanglement or strangulation.
Do not use this instrument and the sensors during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Induced current could potentially cause burns. The monitor may affect the MRI image,
and the MRI unit may affect the accuracy of the oximetry measurements.
Do not put the SpO2 sensor on the limb with arterial catheter or venous syringe.
Do not perform SpO2 monitoring and NIBP measurements on the same arm
simultaneously. Obstruction of blood flow during NIBP measurements may adversely
affect the reading of the SpO2 value.
Before performing the testing, check the sensor cable. After unplugging the SpO2 sensor
cable from the socket, the system shall display the flashing prompt information "Sensor
Off" above the PLETH waveform.
Prolonged and continuous monitoring may increase the risk of burns at the site of the
sensor. It is especially important to check the sensor placement, and ensure proper
attachment on neonates and patients of poor perfusion or skin sensitive to light. Check the
sensor location every 23 hours and move to another location if the skin deteriorates.
More frequent examinations may be required for different patients.

NOTE
Place the SpO2 sensor cable at the backside of the patient hand. Make sure the fingernail
is just opposite to the light emitted from the sensor.

MONITORING PROCEDURE
Follow the procedure as below:
1. Power on the monitor.
2. Attach the sensor to the proper site on the patient.
3. Plug the connector of the sensor extension cable into the SpO2 connector on monitor.
The process of SpO2 plethysmogram measurement is generally the same. But the SpO2 sensor
selection and placement depend on the patient type. When choosing a site for a sensor, refer to the
directions for that sensor.

MEASUREMENT LIMITATIONS
If the accuracy of any measurement does not seem reasonable, first check the patients vital signs by
102
an alternate method. Then check the instrument for proper function. Inaccurate measurements may
be caused by:
Incorrect sensor application or use;
Placement of a sensor on the same extremity with a blood pressure cuff, arterial catheter, or
intravascular line;
Exposure to excessive illumination, such as surgical lamps (especially ones with a xenon light
source), bilirubin lamps, fluorescent lights, infrared heating lamps, or direct sunlight (exposure
to excessive illumination can be corrected by covering the sensor with a dark material);
Excessive patient motion;
Venous pulsations;
Intravascular dyes such as indocyanine green or methylene blue;
Defibrillation;
Other physiological conditions or medical procedures that may interfere with the monitors
measurements include significant levels of dysfunctional hemoglobin, low perfusion, and dark
pigment.
Loss of pulse signal can occur in the following situations:
The sensor is too tight;
A blood pressure cuff is inflated on the same extremity as the one with a SpO2 sensor attached;
There is arterial occlusion proximal to the sensor.
Select an appropriate sensor, apply it as directed, and observe all warnings and cautions presented in
the directions for use accompanying the sensor. Clean and remove any substances such as nail polish
from the application site. Periodically check to ensure that the sensor remains properly positioned on

CHAPTER 18: IBP


MONITORING

IBP CHANNELS
The monitor provides two channels to measure the invasive blood pressure (IBP, including systolic,

105
diastolic and mean pressures), and displays two channels of waveforms and two parameters. The two
channels of waveforms are displayed in a same or different waveform area, differentiated by color.
When the two curves overlapped, the curve color will be the color of channel 2. The figure below is
the channels displayed in different waveform area:

Label of channel 1: Selecting this label pops up the menu of channel 1.


Label of channel 2: Selecting this label pops up the menu of channel 2.
Pressure axis: It is the pressure axis of the waveform displayed on its right side, shown as
below:

Maximum

0 mmHg

The bottom horizontal line indicates the location of zero pressure. If a curve dot is displayed higher
than this line, it means the pressure of this dot is positive; accordingly, the pressure of the dot, which
is lower than this line, is negative.
The top horizontal line indicates the maximum pressure of current display gain. The curve line
where its pressure is higher than the maximum pressure will be clipped and becomes a section of
horizontal line.
The height of the waveforms relates to the pressure. And the ratio between height and pressure is
specified. Maximum value and Minimum value are listed in the following table:

Maximum value on screen Minimum value on screen


6 mmHg -1 mmHg
10 mmHg -1 mmHg
18 mmHg -2 mmHg
30 mmHg -3 mmHg
60mmHg -6mmHg
80mmHg -8mmHg
100mmHg -11mmHg
120mmHg -13mmHg
180mmHg -20mmHg
240mmHg -26mmHg
300mmHg -33mmHg

The monitor can automatically select a proper ratio according to the phase of the waveform. It also
provides a function to adjust the ratio manually. Here we call it two gain modes: Auto mode and
Manual mode.
106
Status message: Displayed above the waveform. All the possible status messages are listed in
the following table:

IBP PARAMETER
The measured IBP values of two channels are displayed in the parameters area, the right side of the
IBP channels, shown as below:

IBP label of channel 1


Systolic blood pressure (SYS)
Mean pressure (MEAN)
Indicates that this area displays the measured IBP values of channel 1.
Diastolic blood pressure (DIA)
IBP values can vary in the range from 60mmHg to 300mmHg. Values not in this range will be
displayed as invalid pressure, in the form of --- or --.-.
But there are more reasons if these pressure values are displayed as invalid values, they are:
1. The actual pressure is not in the range from -60 mmHg to 300 mmHg.
2. The channel wasnt zeroed.
3. The cable is disconnected or not connected firmly.
4. The channel is not calibrated properly.
5. In zero processing.
6. Monitor is starting.
The IBP unit is the same as the NIBP unit. See REGION SETTINGS in CHAPTER 4 for detailed
information.
107
PRECAUTIONS

WARNING
Use only the IBP transducer specified in this manual. Disposable IBP transducers should
not be reused.
Parts and accessories used must meet the safety requirements of the medical electrical
equipment standards.
Avoid conductive connection to the applied part likely to degrade safety.
When the monitor is used with high frequency surgical equipment, do not allow the
transducer and the cable contact the high frequency surgical equipment to prevent the
patient from burning caused by leakage current.

MONITORING PROCEDURE
1. Plug the pressure cable into the IBP connector on the monitor and power on the monitor.
2. Prepare the pressure line and transducer by flushing the system with normal saline solution.
Make sure the tubing and transducer system is free of air bubbles.

NOTE
In case of any entrapped air in the pressure system, re-fill the system with normal saline.

3. Connect the catheter to the pressure line, making sure there is no air present in the catheter or
pressure line.
4. Position the transducer so it is at the same level with the patients heart, approximately
mid-axillary line.
5. Verify the correct label is selected.
6. Zero the transducer.

IBP CHANNEL MENU


Select the label of a target IBP channel, and the menu of this channel pops up, shown as below. In
this menu, we can change the label of the channel, zero the transducer and select the display gain.

Label
It has the same function as the Label button in the IBP parameter menu. Selecting this button
switches the label of this channel.
Zero
In the first time we select this button, the corresponding channel will perform zero process. And
selecting this button again will terminate the zeroing. The system will treat the detected absolute
pressure value as the relative zero point. This zero point affects both the pressure values and the
waveforms of the channel.
Zeroing procedure:
1. Disconnect the transducer from the patient.
109
2. Adjust the 3-way stopcock to close the channel leading to the patient. The transducer is open to
the atmosphere through the stopcock.
3. Select the Zero button in the IBP channel menu to start zeroing.
NOTE
The zeroing funciton is noneffective in sensor off status, it is effective only when the sensor
is connected to the monitor.
Position the transducer at the same level with the patients heart, approximately
mid-axillary line.
Perform the pressure zeroing when the monitor is powered on and at measuring intervals
(at least once per day). The zeroing should also be conducted once the transducer cable or
catheter is changed.
Ensure the catheter is static. In the catheter static status, the zeroing will be completed
soon.

Gain Mode
This button is to select the display gain mode for the channel. The gain mode switches between Auto
and Manual when selecting this button. This function is disabled if the channel wasnt zeroed.
Adjust Gain
If the gain mode of the channel is Manual, we can use this button to increase/decrease display gain.
The clockwise for decrease, whereas for increase. This operation zooms in the waveform in vertical
direction. This function is also disabled if the channel wasnt zeroed.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

WARNING
Before cleaning the transducer, make sure the transducer is disconnected from the
monitor, or the monitor is powered off and disconnected from AC power.

CLEANING OF IBP TRANSDUCER


After the IBP monitoring operation is completed, remove the tubing and the dome from the
transducer and wipe the transducer diaphragm with water. To clean the transducer and the cable,
wipe them using soap or the detergents listed below:
Cetylcide
Wavicide-01
Wescodyne
Cidex
Lysol
Vesphene
Do not immerse the connector in any liquid. After cleaning, dry the transducer thoroughly before
storing. Slight discoloration or temporary increase of surface stickiness of the cable should not be
considered abnormal. If it is necessary to remove the adhesive tape residue from the transducer cable,
the double seal tape remover is recommended; use the remover with special caution to minimize the
damage to the cable. Acetone, Alcohol, Ammonia and Chloroform, or other strong solvents are not
recommended because they are harmful to the vinyl cabling if used for a long time.

NOTE
110
The disposable transducers or domes must not be reused.
To avoid contamination, the disposable transducers or domes must be reclaimed or
disposed of properly, complying with the local laws.

STERILIZATION
Chemical Solution Sterilization
After finishing the cleaning, select an effective sterilant for chemical solution sterilization of the
operating room equipment. Buffered glutaraldehyde (e.g. Cidex or Hospisept) is recommended. Do
not use quaternary cationic detergents such as zephiran chloride. If the whole unit is to be sterilized,
immerse the transducer but not the electrical connector into the sterilant for the recommended
sterilizing period. Ensure that the dome has been removed. Then rinse all transducer parts except the
electrical connector with sterilized water or saline. The transducer must be thoroughly dried before
storing.

Gas Sterilization
For more complete asepsis, use gas sterilization. The transducer should be completely dry after
cleaning. When ethylene oxide gas is used as the gas disinfectant, follow the operating instructions
provided by the manufacturer of the gas disinfectant.

NOTE
The disinfectant temperature must not exceed 70C (158F). Plastics in the pressure
transducer may deform or melt above this temperature.

111
CHAPTER 19:
CO2 MONITORING

INTRODUCTION
CO2 monitoring is to monitor the respiration of patient by detecting the concentration of CO2
generated during respiration. The maximum concentration of CO2 at the end of exhalation is called
End-Tidal CO2 (EtCO2). The minimum concentration of CO2 at the end of inspiration is called
Fractional Inspiratory CO2 (FiCO2). CO2 is generated by cells in the body during metabolizing, and
is breathed out via breath system. The concentration of CO2 breathed out from lung reflects directly
the situation of metabolizing and breathe system. If the concentration of CO2 is high, it means that
metabolizing is excited, such as blood poisoning or acute fever. If the concentration of CO2 is low, it
is commonly because the output ability of heart is weak, or the heart stop beating, or the lung soak
for the flux of blood is low or oxygen it carried is not enough. Monitoring CO2 is used to warn the
doctor of the abnormal of breathe and metabolizing for hocused patient.
The concentration of CO2 is represented as a pressure level, with mmHg, kPa or % as its unit.
Generally, the acceptable value is 38mmHg (5.1kPa or 5%) when air pressure is 760mmHg. The
concentration of CO2 varies very fast from 0% to 5% normally. To detect the concentration of CO2
accurately, the monitor has to be very sensitive.

MONITORING PROCEDURE
Follow the procedure specified below to monitor the CO2.
1. Plug the dehydration vase into its receptacle, then push its bottom carefully to its position,
shown as the figure below:

Water trap receptacle

Sampling line

Water trap

2. Connect one end of the sampling line to the dehydration vase.


3. Connect the other end of the sampling line to the patient.
4. Power on the monitor.
5. Enables the displaying of CO2 channel via the Format Setup button in the Display menu.
6. Select the Start Pump button in the CO2 channel menu to start air pump.
7. The CO2 monitoring starts.
112
NOTE
To monitor the CO2, the CO2 channel and the air pump must be enabled. If the monitor is
in default settings, these two items must be reset.
When there is no CO2 monitoring, disables the CO2 channel or air pump to prolong its
service life.

MONITORING INTERFACE

114
MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
In case of an exception in the sampling system of the CO2 module, check for entanglement of the
sampling line. If the sampling line is not entangled, remove the dehydration vase. In this situation, if
the dehydration vase is not blocked, the sampling line must have been blocked, and you must replace
it with a new one. If the dehydration vase has been blocked, you should replace it with a new
dehydration vase.

WARNING
The sampling line is disposable, must not re-sterilize or reuse it.
Do not press or limit the sampling line.
The dehydration vase is used to collect water drops condensed in the sampling airway and
prevent water drops from entering the module. When the collected water reaches to a
certain amount, remove the water to avoid blocking the airway.
In the long-term use, dust or other substances may lower the air permeability of the filter
material in the dehydration vase and may block the airway. In this situation, the
dehydration vase must be replaced.

NOTE
The sampling line must be recycled or disposed of properly, complying with the local
laws.

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 equipment is used exceeds the
applicable RF compliance level above, the equipment should be observed to verify normal
operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as
reorienting or relocating the equipment.
b. Over the frequency ranges 150kHz to 80MHz, field strengths should be less than 3V/m.
