Introduction
Intended Use
Babytherm 8000 LDR is a heated bassinet intended as a therapeutic device
providing warmth, with or without the use of a canopy, for premature and
full-term neonates and infants up to 16 lbs.

Page 15
Mattress Heating
The Babytherm 8000 LDR features a mattress heating system that uses
conductive heat to warm up infants and to keep them warm.
The system consists of a gel mattress, a heating plate and an electronic
control and monitoring unit. The gel is enclosed by a soft, skin compatible
film.
The mattress molds itself to the body contours of the infant lying on it,
resulting in a large contact surface, a property that helps promote thermal
heat transfer to the infant and minimizes pressure points. A cold gel
mattress, on the other hand, dissipates infant thermal energy. The gel
material has an excellent capacity for storing heat. When the power supply
is disconnected (e. g. during transport within the hospital), the infant is
kept warm for approximately 15 minutes if sufficiently insulated (blanket,
cover).
Description
Description
Features
The heating plate consists of an aluminum plate with a heater element
attached to its under side. It distributes heat evenly over the entire bed
area.
The control and monitoring unit is located under the heating plate and faces
the side most frequently accessed by caregivers.
The micro-processor controlled system continuously monitors the status of
the electronic temperature control and alarm system, and alerts the user if
any faults are detected.

Using the Canopy
Extreme care must me taken when using the canopy accessory (Part No.
2M21030) together with an infant radiant warmer. The radiant energy from
the overhead radiant warmer will be absorbed by the canopy. The infant will
not receive direct radiant energy from the radiant warmer, but a much
lower indirect radiation from the warm canopy.
The use of the canopy may be desired with stable infants. When warming a
cool infant, the use of the canopy will result in a much longer heat-up time.
Heat Therapy
Warning: To prevent possible injury to operator or patient, do not use
radiant warmer while canopy is in use.
•The maximum measured CO2 concentration with the canopy in place
is 0.1%, when measured in accordance with IEC 601-2-19,
subclause 105.
•Always use a foam rubber mattress (Part No. 2M21012).
•Do not use a gel mattress without mattress heating, or when mattress
heating is switched off.

To cool the infant from below:
1. Set mattress heater temperature to, e.g, 36° C.
2. Set skin temperature at the radiant warmer at the desired skin
temperature of the infant.
Note:Always consider the effect of the two independent heat
sources: The overhead radiant warmer and the heated gel
mattress.
Warming and cooling down an infant can be achieved with different settings
of both warmers. Always choose the appropriate settings with regards to the
infant’s needs and the ambient conditions.
An overhead radiant warmer will supply a large amount of energy quickly.
The radiant warmer energy can be controlled by the infant’s skin
temperature via a skin temperature sensor.

The heated gel mattress provides additional heat (or cooling) depending on
the settings relative to the infant’s temperature. The heated gel mattress
will provide gentle, conductive heat at lower level with slower increase (or
decrease) compared to an infant radiant warmer.
The heated gel mattress will significantly reduce the time to heat up an
infant compared to an infant radiant warmer alone.
Operation with Concurrent Use of a Radiant Warmer

Warning: Use of Radiant Warmer
Dräger RH600 warmer. Dräger cannot warrant or endorse
the safe performance of third party radiant warmers for use
with the Babytherm 8000 LDR. Specifically, combinations
with radiant warmers that are not intended for use with
heated bassinets bear risks of excessive overall heat transfer
to the infant.
Warning: Temperature Monitoring
skin condition at regular intervals and adjust temperature
setting to individual infant needs. Infant temperature must
be monitored particularly carefully during phototherapy or
while a radiant warmer is used in conjunction with the
Babytherm 8000 LDR heated bassinet.
Warning: To minimize infant overheating, always consider effect of
additional heat sources, such as phototherapy lamps or
radiant warmers. They increase the heat directed to the
infant. Avoid direct sunlight.
Warning: When used with an infant radiant warmer check its operators
manual for directions of the correct heat level and distance to
the infant.
Warning: Use of radiant warmers may increase insensible water loss.
Measures to maintain desired fluid levels should be
considered.

Cleaning/Disinfecting/Sterilizin
The Babytherm 8000 LDR heated bassinet must be thoroughly cleaned and
disinfected after each infant. Perform any disinfection procedures according
to established hospital procedures as well as to the following additional
instruction.
Warning: Always follow accepted hospital procedures for handling
equipment contaminated with body fluids.
Before any cleaning procedures, the bassinet must first be partially
disassembled. For the cleaning and disinfecting of accessories, see their
respective Operating Instructions.
Disassembly
1. Switch off the Babytherm warming bed.
2. Disconnect power cord from AC receptacle.
Warning: Always disconnect AC line cord before cleaning and
disinfecting.
3. Remove any ancillary infant care equipment from unit.
4. Remove mattress from bassinet.
5. Store the mattress flat; do not fold or roll.
Caution: Remove all sharp objects from mattress. Do not fold gel
mattress. The gel mattress may become damaged.
Cleaning and Disinfection Procedures
To prevent any damage, we recommend using only detergents and
disinfectants compatible with the materials used in the bassinet and its
components and accessories. Use aldehydes, or quarternary ammonium
compounds according to manufacturer’s label and established hospital
disinfection procedures.
Always follow the instruction labels specifically with respect to prescribed
concentrations and the necessary exposure times.
Warning: To minimize any risk of infection, clean and disinfect bassinet
and accessories before any maintenance according to
established hospital procedures – this also applies when
