Convection: heat transfer due to warm or cold air currents
Core temperature: infant’s internal temperature
Decibel (Db): numerical expression of the relative loudness of a sound
ELBW: Extremely Low Birth Weight, micro-preemie
Evaporation: conversion of a liquid to a vapor which causes thermal dissipation when body heat is
consumed by the process
Flow Rate and Flow Rate (LPM): flow meter, LPM = liters per minute as measured by a flow meter
Foot Candle: measurement of light and the relative illumination of a surface
Hyperthermia: patient is too hot (hyper = too much; thermia = heat)
Hypothermia: patient is too cold (hypo = not enough; thermia = heat)
Hypoxia: lack of oxygen
IR: infrared, primary method of heat gain from warmer heating elements
Keratin: component of epidermal skin layer in mature skin. Premature skin has lower levels of keratin in
the epidermal (outer) skin layer, which is why premature babies have higher evaporative heat losses. This
layer normally develops about 2 weeks after birth.
LBW: Low Birth Weight (term for premature babies)
Lux: measurement of light and illumination of a surface
1-4
Manual Mode: warmer temperature control mode where users determine the heater output to the infant
manually
Non-shivering Thermogenesis: Premature infants do not shiver. Term infants do, however, have rich
mitochondrial areas in brown adipose tissue called "brown fat" which creates heat for the infant
metabolically when required. The "brown fat" is used up in the process.
Peak Decibel: decibel measurements showing continual, meaning maximum, sound level measurement,
more reflective of subtle changes to acoustic environment
Preemie: premature infant, born <37 weeks gestation
Pre-Warm mode: Pre-Warm mode is typically associated with radiant warmers. The system will enable
the overhead heaters at 100% for 3 min, then reduces to 60% for 12 min, and then reduces again to 30%.
Thus, when the patient is admitted to the bed, it is already warm and the heating elements can respond
quickly to user or patient requirements.
Relative Humidity: amount of water vapor present in the air, expressed as a percentage and temperature
dependent
RT: Respiratory Therapist, someone who provides ventilator, resuscitation, and other pulmonary support
for patients
Radiation: heat transfer to a warm or cold surface NOT in contact
Servo Mode: closed loop systems that automatically maintain set levels based on feedback to a source.
For example, Baby mode temperature control is a servo system that controls heat processes to the patient
based on that infant's temperature.
NOTE:
Baby Mode, Skin Mode, and Servo Mode can be used interchangeably
Skin temperature: evaluation of patient temperature as measured on the skin. All of our probes are skin
measurement probes, and are attached to the skin via probe covers. Typically, there is a difference of
approximately 0.5 C between skin temperature and core temperature.
0
Thermoneutral Zone: temperature at which an infant's temperature is regulated such that metabolic
processes are minimized, oxygen consumption is optimized, and temperature losses are minimized
Thermoregulation: ability to control and balance heat processes (convection, conduction, radiation, and
evaporation) to minimize infants’ heat losses and encourage growth
Trendelenburg: elevating one end of the mattress
UV: ultraviolet light, a component of the normal spectrum of white light
VLBW: Very Low Birth Weight baby

Section 2
Introduction, Features,
and Specifications
Introduction
There are three versions of the Resuscitaire Radiant Warmer product: the Resuscitaire Birthing Room
Warmer (WBR82), the Resuscitaire Radiant Warmer (RW82), and the Resuscitaire Wall Mounted
Radiant Warmer (WMRW82).
Warmer Module
A controller provides Pre-Warm Mode, Manual Mode, or Baby Mode (servo skin temperature control) to
control the warmer. An examination light provides additional illumination of the mattress area. A warmer
head pivot allows the warmer to be pivoted to either side for x-ray procedures. Additionally, when the
warmer is pivoted, it continues to provide heat.
Cart/Bassinet (Resuscitaire Birthing Room Warmer (WBR82) and Cart only)

The bassinet is designed to provide maximum function and utility to aid in the care of the newborn. It is
detachable so you can transport the infant to the NICU, the general nursery, or another area of the
hospital. The side and front panels fold down to permit access to the infant. The mattress tilts at a 0°, 5°,
or 10° angle. Openings are provided on each side of the bassinet for the insertion of the accessory x-ray
cassette tray. A writing surface is available; when the writing surface is closed, it is not visible. Each cart
has a pass-through drawer and a locking front access drawer. The cart locks in place when used with a
warmer.
Bassinet (Resuscitaire Radiant Warmer (RW82) only)

The bassinet is designed to provide maximum function and utility to aid in the care of the newborn. You
may fold the side and front panels down to gain access to the infant. The mattress tilts at a 0°, 5°, or 10°
angle. Openings are provided on each side of the bassinet for the insertion of the accessory x-ray cassette
tray. A push-through drawer is supplied standard on every unit.
Controller
At power-up, the microprocessor within the controller performs a series of diagnostic tests to confirm the
proper operation of the system. During this time, all display and indicators light, except for Power Fail,
and a tone sounds.
When powered-up, the system initializes in Pre-Warm Mode, the controller starts the heater at 100%
power and maintains that setting for 3 min, reduces to 60% for 12 min, and then reduces the heater power
to 30%. During the low heat setting, the unit continues to provide heat with no low limit alarms enabled.
When operating the controller in Manual Mode, you can adjust the heater power from 0% to full power in
10% increments. After 10 min of operation in Manual Mode, the Check Patient alarm occurs. To silence
2-1
the alarm for 10 minutes, verify the infant’s temperature, and press the Silence/Reset key. Failure to
acknowledge the Check Patient alarm by pressing the Silence/Reset key within the next 5 min causes
the heater to shut down, and an alarm occurs.
When operated in Baby Mode, the controller uses a skin temperature probe, connected between the
controller input and the infant, to automatically adjust the heater output of the warmer module to maintain
a selected set temperature.
The Apgar Timer displays the elapsed time and sounds an alert tone at 1, 5, and 10 minutes.
The Keypad Lock key, when pressed, enables or disables the Up/Down arrows, the Select Mode key,
and the >37°C key.
A procedural silence timer blocks out Low Baby Temp audible alarms for 5 minutes during routine
procedures.
Blender Module (Optional)

The blender module provides blended gas from 21% to 100% to the patient outlet on the resuscitation
module.
Resuscitation Module (Optional)

The resuscitation module contains pneumatic outlets necessary for infant resuscitation. Controls and
displays for the module are located above the bassinet on the warmer column.
Two variations of resuscitation modules exist: Resuscitation Module without Autobreath™ Infant
Resuscitator and Resuscitation Module with Autobreath™. The Resuscitation Module has an adjustable
airway pressure relief.
NOTE:
When pressure in the hose delivering gas to the patient falls below -0.4 kPa (-4 cm H2O), the one-way
valve installed at the Patient Outlet connection opens. In the unlikely failure of the gas supply, the one-
way valve allows patient to inspire room air.
The resuscitation modules consist of the factory-installed components discussed on the following pages.
2-2
Resuscitation Module without Autobreath™ Infant Resuscitator
• Patient Outlet (Resuscitation Module only)—Use the
Patient Outlet to provide continuous gas flow to the
patient. Controls are provided for Airway Pressure Relief
(maximum pressure) and Flow Rate (circuit flow
delivering 100% oxygen or blended gas). The adjustable
Airway Pressure Relief control is always operative when
used with the 15 mm tubing provided. Pressure relief is
adjustable and ranges from 0 to 4.9 kPa (0 to 50 cm
H2O/mbar). The fixed internal safety relief valve is always
operable and provides redundant maximum pressure relief
at 5.9 kPa (60 cm H2O/mbar) ± 20% and allows the patient
to inspire room air in the event of gas supply failure. The
fixed internal safety relief valve provides a maximum
pressure relief at 4.9 kPa (50 cm H2O/mbar) ± 20%.
• Airway Pressure—The airway pressure gauge monitors
the airway pressure when externally connected to patient
circuits. (UK and other local variants are connected
internally and may not have this fitting.)
• Blender—The optional blender supplies blended gas only to the Patient Outlet in the Resuscitation
Module. During operation, the resuscitation module alarms if both oxygen or air pressures are low.
• Auxiliary Outlet—The Auxiliary Outlet supplies 100% oxygen through the Auxiliary Flow control to
the auxiliary outlet connector. It is intended for oxygen enrichment of a manual bag resuscitator, for
supplemental delivery to the patient, mother, or a second neonate, such as a twin. The Auxiliary Flow
control adjusts the flow rate from 0 LPM to 15 LPM. An internal pre-set relief valve limits the
auxiliary outlet pressure to 15.7 kPa (160.1 cm H2O/mbar). For the UK only: This internal pre-set
relief valve limits the Aux Outlet pressure to 3.9 kPa (40 cm H2O/mbar).
NOTE:
The Auxiliary Outlet oxygen percentage is not adjustable. It always supplies 100% oxygen.
2-3
WARNING:
The internal adjustable airway pressure relief is not functional with a self-inflating bag because
the patient supply is connected to the fresh gas reservoir on the self-inflating bag rather than
directly to the patient airway. When using a self-inflating bag, always use a suitable external
airway pressure relief valve connected to the patient airway. To obtain maximum flow, turn the
adjustable airway pressure relief knob to the Max. position. Failure to do so could result in infant
injury
WARNING:
Using a breathing circuit other than the one supplied may inadvertently restrict the gas flow
such that the indication of the gas flow and the adjustable airway pressure relief may be
inaccurate. Infant injury could occur.
• Patient breathing and supply circuits—Use the disposable patient supply circuit (PN 81 001 27/
MU10900) for manual bagging on the Resuscitation Module.
2-4
Resuscitation Module with AutoBreath™ Infant Resuscitator
WARNING:
Always use an airway pressure monitor if the AutoBreath™ Infant Resuscitator is to be used
unattended. Failure to do so could result in patient injury.
• AutoBreath™ Infant Resuscitator—Use the
AutoBreath™ Infant Resuscitator in conjunction with the
continuous gas flow provided by the Patient Supply sub-
module. The AutoBreath™ Infant Resuscitator circuit is a
gas-powered, time-cycled, continuous flow, pressure-
limited resuscitator. It has a Rate (BPM) control and a fixed
I/E ratio of 1:2 nominal. An On/Off switch allows the
timing circuit to be turned on and off as needed. A PEEP
control adjusts the Positive End Expiratory Pressure in the
patient circuit.
• Patient Gas Supply—The patient gas supply circuit may be
used with the AutoBreath™ Infant Resuscitator turned on or
off to provide continuous gas flow to the patient. Controls
are provided for Airway Pressure Relief (maximum
pressure) and Flow Rate (LPM) (circuit flow delivering
100% oxygen or blended gas). The adjustable Airway
Pressure Relief control is always operative. A fixed internal
safety valve is also provided and is also always operable.
This valve provides redundant maximum pressure relief at 4.9 ± 1.0 kPa (50 cm H2O/mbar) and also
allows the patient to inspire room air in the event of gas supply failure. Negative pressure is not
available in the expiratory phase.
NOTE:
Flow Rate (LPM) is equivalent to flow meter.
• Auxiliary Outlet—The auxiliary outlet supplies 100% oxygen through the Auxiliary Flow control to
the auxiliary outlet connector. It is intended for oxygen enrichment of a manual bag resuscitator, for
supplemental delivery to the patient, mother or second neonate, such as a twin. The Auxiliary Flow
control adjusts the flow rate from 0 LPM to 15 LPM. An internal pre-set relief valve limits the
auxiliary outlet pressure to 15.7 kPa (160.1 cm H2O/mbar). This internal pre-set relief valve limits the
Aux Outlet pressure to 3.9 kPa (40 cm H2O/mbar).
NOTE:
Increasing back pressure may develop as the length of oxygen circuit tubing increases and tubing
diameter decreases. Install oxygen delivery tubing as intended in a clinical situation and verify through
flow measurement that approximately 15 LPM (maximum) can be achieved.
NOTE:
2-5
WARNING:
injury.
WARNING:
Using a breathing circuit other than the AutoBreath™ Infant Resuscitator Breathing Circuit
(PN 81 000 19/ MU10850) may inadvertently restrict the gas flow such that the indication of the
gas flow and the adjustable airway pressure relief may be inaccurate. Infant injury could occur.
• Patient Breathing Circuits—Use the patient breathing circuit (PN 81 000 19/ MU10850) in
conjunction with the AutoBreath™ Infant Resuscitator. Additionally, a patient supply circuit for
manual bagging, or blow-by, (PN 81 001 26/ MU10899) may be used.
2-6
Suction
A gas-powered, venturi-generated vacuum drives
the suction circuit, which provides a negative
pressure for suctioning the patient’s airway. This
suction device is specifically intended for removal
of mucus from neonates post delivery. The suction
negative pressure is indicated on the suction gauge.
Adjust suction with the Suction control, and turn it
on or off with the On/Off switch. A fixed relief valve limits the maximum suction pressure to 150 mm
Hg (80" H2O/mbar). This suction module contains an On/Off switch and a suction control knob for
suction adjustment between 0 to 19.99 kPa (0 to 2.90 psi), minimum of 15.7 LPM at maximum.
NOTE:
The disposable suction bottle has a built-in filter.
Disposable suction bottle (PN 81 001 49/

MU10918) and the associated filter (PN 81 001 46/
MU10915)

(PN 81 001 36/ MU10907), or box of 10 disposable
micro-volume suction bottles (PN 81 001 48/
MU10917), or reusable micro-volume suction kit
(PN 81 001 47/ MU10916)
2-7
Suction Line Filter
The Suction Line Filter is a hydrophobic bacterial filter with
extension tubing. It is connected in line with the supply
connection to the suction bottle. The extension tubing connects
to the suction bottle outlet port.
Gas Supply Module (Optional)

The gas supply module includes an On/Off switch that
controls the pipeline and cylinder gas supply to the
resuscitation module. The basic resuscitation module
includes an oxygen cylinder pressure gauge.
NOTE:
When both wall and tank gas sources are turned on, the
system may not always pull gas from the wall source. It will
pull from the source with the highest pressure. Check tank gauges to determine gas source.
On units equipped with the blender module, oxygen and air
pressure gauges are provided.
NOTE:
The Blender Module option changes the Resuscitation
Module to add the air pipeline, the tank connections, and
also adds an air gauge to the Gas Supply Module.
Apgar Timer
When the Apgar Timer is enabled, the Apgar Timer display shows elapsed minutes and seconds up to
59:59, and an alert sounds at the 1, 5, and 10 min intervals.
Weigh Scale
The scale consists of a Display Module and Weighing Platform. A microcomputer is used to determine
the weight of infants in the Resuscitaire Birthing Room Warmer and the Resuscitaire Radiant Warmer.
The infant weight remains on the digital display for several minutes. Refer to the User Manual that
accompanies the scale for additional information.
2-8
Alarms
All alarm indicators are displayed in the upper right corner of the controller panel and illuminate when
activated.
High Temperature
When the skin temperature probe is attached to the infant and the skin temperature exceeds 39°C (102°F),
the heater automatically turns off, the High Temp indicator flashes, and the alarm sounds continuously.
To silence the alarm for 2 min, press the Silence/Reset key. After you correct the alarm condition or the
infant’s temperature falls below 38.5°C (101.3°F), the alarm automatically resets. If the skin probe
detects a temperature of 39.5°C (103.1°F), the unit shuts down, and a System Fail alarm activates.
Check Patient
After 10 min of operation in Manual Mode, the Chk Patient indicator illuminates, and the alarm sounds.
Thereafter, the Chk Patient indicator remains illuminated, and the alarm sounds every 30 s for 5 min. To
silence the alarm for 10 min, check the infant’s temperature, and press the Silence/Reset key. If the alarm
has not been acknowledged after a total of 15 additional min, the heater shuts down, and a continuous
ramping alarm sounds. To activate the heater, check the infant’s temperature, and press the Silence/Reset
key.
Probe
If the skin temperature probe fails (short- or open-circuits), or if the controller is in Baby Mode and there
is no skin temperature probe connected to the controller, the Probe indicator flashes and a ramping alarm
sounds. Additonally, the word “Lo” displays in the baby temperature display due to the baby skin
temperature probe reading <18° C ambient temperature. After correcting the alarm condition, the alarm
automatically resets.
Baby Temperature
When the temperature sensed by the skin temperature probe is 1°C above or below the Set Temperature
display setting in Baby Mode, the Baby Temp indicator flashes, and an alarm sounds, first at a low level,
then at a medium level, and then at a high level. Additionally, if the temperature is 0.2°C above the Set
Temperature display, the heater turns off automatically. To silence the alarm for 10 min, check the
infant’s temperature, and press the Silence/Reset key.
Power Failure
NOTE:
Turning off the power switch keeps the controller and heater from starting automatically when power is
returned to the unit. The settings are retained in memory.
When AC power to the unit is interrupted while the controller is on, the Power Fail indicator flashes, and
the alarm beeps. To silence the alarm, press the ON/STBY switch. When power is restored to the unit, the
alarm automatically resets, and all the settings are retained.
System Failure
If an internal malfunction is detected, the System Fail indicator flashes, and the alarm beeps. In addition,
the Baby Temperature display shows an error code, such as Er01 to Er023. A prolonged brown-out,
such as 5 min or longer, also causes this alarm. This alarm is not resettable. Refer the unit to qualified
service personnel. See “System Fail Error Codes” on page 7-3 for error codes.
2-9
Blender Differential Bypass (Optional)
The factory-installed, optional, blender module alarms whenever the pressure differential between the
oxygen and air supplies exceed 207 kPa (30 psi) ± 14 kPa (2 psi). When this condition occurs, the blender
continues to supply whichever gas has the higher pressure: either 100% air or 100% oxygen. This is an
audible alarm only; there are no visual indicators. If a blender is present, both sources of air and oxygen
must be connected and turned on and present to prevent the Differential Bypass alarm from activating.
NOTE:
Because this alarm is pneumatically powered, either O2 or air must be present for the alarm to sound.

Personal injury or equipment damage could occur.
SHOCK HAZARD:
Use only the power cords supplied with the unit. Failure to do so could result in personal injury
or equipment damage.
Explosion Precautions
WARNING:
When performing cleaning and maintenance procedures, confirm that the oxygen supply is
turned off and that the equipment is disconnected from the oxygen supply. A fire and explosion
hazard exists when performing cleaning and maintenance procedures in an oxygen-enriched
environment. Personal injury or equipment damage could occur.
WARNING:
Do not use the equipment in the presence of flammable anesthetics. Personal injury or
equipment damage could occur.
Oxygen Precautions
WARNING:
Improper use of supplemental oxygen may be associated with serious side effects, including
blindness, brain damage, and death. The risks vary with each infant. The attending physician
should prescribe all clinical practices with regard to oxygen administration.
3-4
WARNING:
Compressed gas cylinders, such as oxygen cylinders, can become hazardous projectiles if the
gas is released rapidly. Securely fasten cylinders. Failure to do so could result in personal injury
and/or equipment damage.
WARNING:
There are potential hazards associated with the delivery of supplemental oxygen. If it is
necessary to administer oxygen, notify the attending physician immediately. Failure to do so
could result in infant injury.
WARNING:
The oxygen concentration inspired by an infant does not predictably determine the partial
pressure of oxygen (PO2) in the blood. When deemed advisable by the attending physician,
measure the blood PO2 using accepted clinical techniques. Failure to do so could result in infant
injury.
WARNING:
Due to supplemental tubing or equipment, oxygen flow rates are not an accurate indication of
oxygen concentrations. Measure oxygen concentrations with a calibrated oxygen analyzer at
intervals directed by the attending physician. Failure to do so could result in infant injury.
WARNING:
Keep matches, lit cigarettes, and all other sources of ignition out of the room in which the
equipment is located. Textiles, oil, and other combustibles are easily ignited and burn with great
intensity in air enriched with oxygen. Infant injury, personal injury, or equipment damage could
occur.
WARNING:
Although oxygen-compatible materials are used in the oxygen delivery system, take special
care when high pressure oxygen, such as found in a medical oxygen cylinder, is used. Violent
ignition of oil, grease, greasy substances, small particles of dust, dirt, or other particulate
contaminants, such as small particles of metal, can occur in the presence of high pressure
oxygen if their ignition temperature is reached. If the oxygen cylinder valve is opened too
rapidly, an instantaneous increase in temperature can occur due to friction, particle
acceleration, or adiabatic compression. Serious infant injury, personal injury, or equipment
damage could occur.
WARNING:
Keep oil, grease, greasy substances, dust, dirt, and other particulate contaminants away from
oxygen regulators, cylinder valves, tubing, and all other oxygen equipment. Failure to do so
could result in infant injury, personal injury, or equipment damage.
WARNING:
On high pressure oxygen cylinders, use only pressure regulators or reducing valves approved
for oxygen service. Do not use oxygen pressure regulators or reducing valves for air or gases
other than oxygen as they may be hazardous. Operate such devices in strict accordance with
the manufacturer’s recommendations. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or
equipment damage.
3-5
WARNING:
When new or replacement oxygen cylinders are to be installed, clear their outlet ports by
cracking the cylinder valve momentarily before attaching them to the equipment. Failure to do
so could result in personal injury or equipment damage.
WARNING:
Cylinder heights may vary. When replacing a gas cylinder, ensure that the tank does not exceed
the maximum tank height specification. Also, prior to placing the cylinder, confirm that there is
sufficient clearance between the bottom of the tank and the floor when the Resuscitaire VHA is
in its lowest position prior to placement. After these checks have been completed, raise the
VHA to its maximum height and install/remove the cylinder. Failure to do so could result in
personal injury or equipment damage.
WARNING:
Ensure oxygen tanks are securely mounted and connected before use. Failure to do so could
result in equipment damage or personal injury.
CAUTION:
Close cylinders while unit is connected to pipeline supply. Failure to do so could result in
depletion of the cylinder’s contents.
WARNING:
Maintain auxiliary gas pressure at or below 15.7 kPa (160.1 cm H2O). The auxiliary gas has a
separate pressure limiting valve that limits the maximum pressure at 15.7 kPa (160.1 cm H2O).
Failure could result in patient injury.
Low-Flow Microblender Precautions

WARNING:
If either the air or oxygen gas source pressure is reduced, creating a pressure differential of 207
kPa (30 psi), the microblender alarm sounds. This condition can alter the FiO2 and flow output
from the microblender. Infant injury could occur.
WARNING:
Always operate the system with medical-grade gases. Failure to do so could result in infant
injury or equipment damage.
WARNING:
Use air inlet water filters with the low-flow microblender. Replace them in accordance with the
manufacturer’s recommendation. Failure to do so could result in infant injury or equipment
damage.
WARNING:
Monitor the concentration of oxygen provided and the partial pressure of oxygen in the patient’s
blood (PaO2). Failure to do so could result in infant injury.
3-6
WARNING:
If the blender option is included, confirm that the oxygen/air blender control of the blended gas
supply module is correctly set prior to use. Failure to do so could result in infant injury.
WARNING:
Should any of the control knobs on the resuscitation module or the blender come loose for any
reason, do not attempt to refasten them. The calibration of these controls depends on the
position of the knob on the shaft. If knobs come loose, qualified service personnel must
calibrate the unit. Failure to do so could result in infant injury or equipment damage.
Resuscitation Precautions

having a low pressure drop. Use of a humidifier with a bubbler tube or pressure jet renders the
safety relief valve ineffective. Do not use a pressure jet nebulizer or unmodified bubbler
humidifier. Infant injury or equipment damage could occur.
WARNING:
When setting the Flow Rate (LPM) control for optimum repeatability, turn the knob in a
clockwise direction to approach the desired setting. Failure to do so could result in infant injury.
WARNING:
The humidifier has low series flow resistance. Do not place it between the exhalation valve and
the patient airway. Infant injury could occur.
WARNING:
When setting the PEEP control, always start with the knob fully counterclockwise to avoid
setting the PEEP above the maximum pressure limit. Failure to do so could result in patient
injury.
WARNING:
Always use an airway pressure monitor if the AutoBreath™ Infant Resuscitator is to be used
unattended. Failure to do so could result in patient injury.
3-9
WARNING:
Do not super-saturate the gas going to the patient. Super-saturation appears as excessive
condensation in the tubing, while some condensation droplets on the inner walls of the tubing
are normal. Failure to do so could result in patient injury.
WARNING:
Periodically measure blood gases to ensure proper levels of ventilation. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury.
WARNING:
Always confirm the airway pressure relief valve setting before patient use. Failure to do so could
result in patient injury.
WARNING:
Prior to use, confirm that the oxygen/air blender control of the blended gas supply module is
correctly set. Failure to do so could result in patient injury.
WARNING:
Prior to use, confirm that the patient circuit contains all the parts needed. Failure to do so could
result in patient injury.
WARNING:
Ensure that the patient breathing circuit connections are secure and free of obstructions. Failure
to do so could result in patient injury.
WARNING:
Ensure gas supplies are clean and dry. Use Water/Trap filters in the supply lines if necessary.
Replace according to the manufacturer’s labeling. Failure to do so could result in patient injury.
Securely fasten all hoses to fittings. Hand-tighten to avoid damaging the fittings. Failure to do so
could result in infant injury or equipment damage.
WARNING:
Do not place flow restrictions, such as flowmeters or valves, in the supply line. Failure to do so
could result in equipment damage or patient injury.
WARNING:
A one-way valve is installed at the Patient Outlet connection. This valve opens when pressure
in the hose delivering the gas to the patient falls below -0.4 kPa (-0.06 psi).
WARNING:
Do not use antistatic or electrically conductive hoses or tubing. Infant injury could occur.
3 - 10
WARNING:
Ensure that flow resistance does not exceed 6 cm H2O at 5 LPM when adding attachments,
components, or subassemblies to the breathing system. Failure to do so could cause infant
injury.
WARNING:
When the AutoBreath™ Infant Resuscitator is in use, an alternate ventilation method must be
available. Failure to do so could result in infant injury.
WARNING:
Excessive air pressure could cause injury to the patient’s lungs. Always monitor the airway
pressure, and provide appropriate pressure relief during resuscitation.
WARNING:
For prolonged ventilation, use a heat and moisture exchanger or heated humidification. Failure
WARNING:

3. Monitor the Airway Pressure, and provide pressure relief in one of these ways:
4 - 22
a. Set the Airway Pressure Relief control to the desired pressure limit according to the color-coded
bands on the Airway Pressure gauge and Airway Pressure Relief control.
b. Insert a “T” fitting with an airway pressure monitor into the Patient Outlet port, and connect it to
the Airway Pressure port to indicate the breathing circuit pressure. Adjust the Airway Pressure
Relief control as necessary.
4. Check the fixed internal Airway Pressure Relief Control by setting the desired Airway Pressure
Limit and blocking the exhalation valve port exhaust and the exhalation valve patient port. Observe
the Airway Pressure Gauge to check pressure limit.
NOTE:
The ability of the adjustable airway pressure relief valve to limit pressure is dependent on the flow rate of
gas. When an anesthesia-type bag is squeezed, the rate and depth of the compression affect the flow rate
through the valve. When the adjustable airway pressure relief valve is set under a constant flow condition
and the breathing bag is squeezed, the peak airway pressure may exceed that setting. To ensure that the
peak inspiratory pressure is set under more realistic conditions before use on an infant, adjust the airway
pressure relief while simulating normal bagging using a suitable test lung.

Baby Mode
Use Baby Mode for long-term warming. In the Baby Mode, a temperature probe placed on the infant’s
abdomen measures the infant’s skin temperature. The radiant warmer in Baby Mode operates in servo
control, or closed loop control. The healthcare provider selects the desired temperature for the infant. The
controller detects the infant’s temperature from the probe, compares it to the set point entered by the user,
and adjusts the heater temperature accordingly.
Baby Mode also allows the device to maintain the temperature more consistently by responding to
changes in the infant or the environment as they impact the infant’s temperature. Additionally, this mode
of operation provides baby temperature alarms.
WARNING:
To avoid the hazards of overheating or underheating, do not leave the infant unattended.
WARNING:
Only properly trained personnel directed by an appropriately qualified physician aware of the
currently known hazards and benefits should use infant radiant warmers. Otherwise, personal
injury could occur.

absorb heat. The heater will directly heat the objects instead of the patient. Infant injury could
occur.
WARNING:
Locate the skin temperature probe so that the skin around the sensor is in direct line with the
heat from the warmer module. If the location is shadowed, such as by the infant’s body,
overheating and possible burning of the infant’s skin could occur.
WARNING:
The skin temperature probe must be in direct contact with the skin to provide accurate
monitoring of the infant’s skin temperature. Failure to maintain direct skin contact could result in
overheating and possible burning.
WARNING:
Check the infant’s condition at least every 15 min for correct sensor attachment and for signs of
overheating. Failure to do so could result in personal injury.
WARNING:
To prevent false temperature indications, place the skin
temperature probe at least 3.8 cm (1½") from any
transcutaneous monitor (TcPO2 or TcPCO2) probe, and
cover the skin temperature probe with a reflective probe
cover. Do not place the skin temperature probe on an
area previously used by a TcPO2 or TcPCO2 probe.
3. Attach the skin temperature probe to the infant:
a. Before the probe is placed on the skin, thoroughly
clean and dry the skin area around the probe.
b. Place the probe on the infant’s abdomen, halfway
between the xyphoid and the umbilicus. If the infant is
prone, locate the skin temperature probe on the infant’s
back.
c. Place the metal side of the probe in direct contact with
the skin.
5 - 16
NOTE:
To minimize the effect of direct radiation on the skin temperature probe and obtain a more accurate baby
temperature measurement, cover the sensor with a Critter Covers Probe Cover, a Care-For-Me™ Cover,
or an equivalent insulating foam or gel cover with a reflective surface facing the warmer module.
d. Cover the probe with a reflective Critter Covers Disposable Probe Cover or a Care-For-Me™
Cover.
NOTE:
A higher set temperature setting does not increase rapid warming.
4. Set the Set Temperature display to the prescribed temperature.
NOTE:
Fluctuations in the Heater Power indicators or the Baby Temperature display reading can result from
air currents, obstructions of radiation to the infant, or the skin temperature probe not being in direct
contact with the skin.
