1. OVERVIEW

The AIRVO 2 is a humidiﬁer with integrated ﬂow generator that delivers high ﬂow warmed and humidiﬁed respiratory gases to spontaneously breathing patients through a variety of patient interfaces.

INTENDED USE

The AIRVO 2 is for the treatment of spontaneously breathing patients who would beneﬁt from receiving high ﬂow warmed and humidiﬁed respiratory gases. This includes patients who have had upper airways bypassed. The ﬂow may be from 2 - 60L/min depending on the patient interface. The AIRVO 2 is for patients in hospitals and long-term care facilities.

USA Federal Law restricts this unit for sale by or on the order of a physician.

WARNINGS

• Nasal delivery of respiratory gases generates ﬂow-dependent positive airway pressure (PAP). This must be taken into account where PAP could have adverse eects on a patient.

• The unit is not intended for life support.

To avoid burns:

• The unit should only be used with interfaces, water chambers and breathing tubes speciﬁed in this user manual.

• Using the breathing tube or interface for longer than the speciﬁed time can result in serious injury including infection.

• Before using oxygen with the unit, read all warnings in the “Oxygen” section of this manual.

• Never operate the unit if:

• the heated breathing tube has been damaged with holes, tears or kinks,

• it is not working properly,

• the case screws have ever been loosened.

• Do not block the ﬂow of the air through the unit and breathing tube.

• The unit should be located in a position where ventilation around the unit is not restricted.

• Never block the air openings of the unit or place it on a soft surface such as a bed or couch/sofa, where

the ﬁlter area may be blocked. Keep the air openings free of lint, hair etc.

To avoid electric shock:

• Do not store or use the unit where it can fall or be pulled into water. If water has entered the unit enclosure, disconnect the power cord and discontinue use.

• Never operate the unit if:

• it has been dropped or damaged,

• it has a damaged power cord or plug,

• it has been dropped into water.

• Avoid unnecessary removal of the power cord from the rear of the device. If removal is necessary, hold the

connector during removal. Avoid pulling on the power cord.

• Return the unit to an authorized service center for examination and repair, except as outlined in this manual.

To avoid choking, or inhalation of a foreign object:

• Ensure an air ﬁlter is ﬁtted when operating your unit.

• Never drop or insert any object into any opening or tube.

Miscellaneous:

• Do not use the unit when the room temperature exceeds 30°C (86°F) or is below 10°C (50°F) as the unit may switch o. Humidity output will be compromised below 18°C (64°F) and above 28°C (82°F).

• The unit is not suitable for use in the presence of a ﬂammable, anesthetic mixture with air or oxygen or nitrous oxide.

2. SETTING UP AIRVO 2

1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN

The AIRVO 2 should be ﬁxed on a pole mounting tray (900PT405) below patient head height.

Open the packaging of the tube & chamber kit (heated breathing tube, MR290 auto-ﬁll chamber and adapter).

2. INSTALL WATER CHAMBER

Remove the blue port caps from the chamber by pulling the tear tab upwards then remove the bracket holding the water supply tube.

Fit the supplied adapter over the two vertical ports on the chamber and push on fully then clip the water supply tube into position.

Fit the water chamber to the unit by pressing down the ﬁnger guard and sliding the chamber on, carefully aligning with the blue chamber port ends.

Push the chamber on ﬁrmly until the ﬁnger guard clicks into place.

WARNINGS

To avoid burns:

• Do not start the unit without the water chamber in place.

• The water in the chamber becomes hot during use. Exercise caution when

removing and emptying the chamber.

• Do not touch the heater plate, water chamber or chamber base during use.

To avoid electric shock:

• When handling the unit with the water chamber in place, avoid tilting the machine to prevent any chance of water entering the unit enclosure.

• Empty all the water from the water chamber before transporting the unit.

CAUTIONS

To ensure optimal therapy (MR290 only):

• Do not use the auto-ﬁll MR290 chamber if it has been dropped, or been run dry and the “water out” alarm has been activated.

3. CONNECT WATER BAG

Attach the sterile water bag to the hanging bracket 20cm (8”) above the unit, and push the bag spike into the ﬁtting at the bottom of the bag. Open the vent cap on the side of the bag spike. The chamber will now automatically ﬁll to the required level and maintain that level until the water bag is empty.

To ensure continual humidiﬁcation, always ensure that the water chamber and/or water bag are not allowed to run out of water.

Check that water ﬂows into the chamber and is maintained below the ﬁll line. If the water level rises above the ﬁll line, replace the chamber immediately.
