Nuvo Video Display Systems – User Manual

Intended Use

The Nuvo Video Display System

The Nuvo Surgical Monitor is intended to be used primarily by a surgeon to view images
generated by an endoscopic camera.

Introduction

This manual provides the information required for normal operation of the Nuvo Video
Display System. Before operating the Nuvo Surgical Monitor, be sure that you have read
and understand the contents of this manual. It is important that you read and strictly
adhere to the aspects of safety contained in these manuals.

Where applicable, this manual is intended to supplement the Nuvo Surgical Light User
Manual S2Z00125.

WARNING:

It is recommended that a complete back-up display system be available at all times
in case of a total system failure.

CAUTION:

It is strongly recommended the user verify the video system operation before
beginning any procedure.

WARNING:

Do not use the Nuvo Video Display System for radiology diagnosis. Radiographic
images are displayed for reference only. Possible misdiagnosis of the patient could
occur.

WARNING:

Equipment which is not medical grade, but connected to the system, should be kept
out of the patient vicinity. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or
equipment damage.

Surgical Monitor Positioning

The Nuvo Surgical Monitor system provides the surgeon with a suspension arrangement that is
well balanced and can be guided easily into position.

The suspension arms rotate 300° around the ceiling mount, and are positioned 180° apart to avoid
interfering with each other. The counterbalance arm rotates 300° around its vertical extension.
These extension pieces are custom-sized according to the ceiling height, assuring adequate
clearance.

The monitor arm turns 300° around the end of the counterbalance arm. The monitor pivots 300°
inside the arm. It can be moved completely out of the way when not in use, without affecting the
light.

The combination of these individual elements allows medical personnel to freely move the
monitor into a variety of positions using only slight pressure on the sterilizable positioning handle.
Once positioned the system remains stable, for optimal viewing of almost any procedure.

If performed by a sterile staff member, grasp the sterilized handle, and position the monitor
assembly in the desired position.

If performed by a non-sterile staff member, grasp the lower edge or side of the monitor (avoid
touching the monitor screen) and position the monitor assembly in the desired position.

Instructions for Use of the Nuvo Video Display System

The Nuvo Video Display System is designed to view images from multiple sources, such as
endoscopic cameras, remote video cameras, radiology, pathology, PACS, etc.

Systems may handle up to four separate input signals via an optional video switching board,
although basic systems only handle one input.

Each source can be easily selected and viewed by pressing a button on the wall controls or on
the sterilizable handle at the monitor.

To Turn the Monitor On/Off:

Turn the monitor system on by using the on/off switch located on the back of the
monitor.

CAUTION:

Ensure the monitor is turned off when not in use. Failure to do so will decrease the life of
the monitor.

CAUTION
Some video sources are unstable during their power on sequence – it may be necessary to

turn the monitor power off, then back on for the image to be displayed properly.
CAUTION

The optional video display system requires the monitors are powered on before input
selections are made.

To Connect a Video Source to the Video Display System

CAUTION:

Take care to align the pins on the connector with the holes in the plug on the

input panel. Do not force the connector into the plug as this may damage the
connector.

Plug the video cable (supplied by others) into a Video Input Panel having the same video format.

Composite Video S-Video RGB Video

NOTE:
The composite video cable must be twisted clockwise to ensure that the cable is securely locked.

The s-video connector can only be inserted in one orientation and does not have any mechanical
retention, other than the friction fit of the pins.

The RGB video cable must be secured with the two small jack screws on either side of the
connector.

To Connect the Video Display System to a Display

CAUTION:

Take care to align the pins on the connector with the holes in the plug on the

output panel. Do not force the connector into the plug as this may damage the
connector.

Plug the video cable (supplied by others) into the nearest appropriate Video Output Panel.

NOTE:
Output panels are provided with sockets for each video format available for input signals, with the
exception that Composite video signals are converted to S-Video signals for display and output.
Always ensure that the output signal is compatible with

(a) the signal to be recorded or displayed and
(b) the device to which it will be connected.

NOTE:
Output Panels are labeled Output A and Output B. The signal delivered to Output A duplicates
the signal displayed on Monitor A and, if a second monitor (Monitor B) is provided, then its
display image is duplicated at the Output B panel.

NOTE:
The s-video connector can only be inserted in one orientation and does not have any mechanical
retention, other than the friction fit of the pins.

The RGB video cable must be secured with the two small jack screws on either side of the
connector.

The RS-232 cable must be secured with the two small jack screws on either side of the connector.
This RS-232 port is only configured for use with National Display Systems monitors.

To Select a Video Signal for Display at a Monitor Using the Optional Wall
Control

NOTE:

This section applies only to systems with the optional video switching.

NOTE:

The Wall Control Panel is an optional feature and may not be included in the system. Identical
functionality is available from the button, if provided, on the monitor’s sterilizable handle.

1. Determine whether Monitor A or Monitor B is to be switched.

2. Go to the Wall Control, where the bottom panel is dedicated to video switching. Press the

associated button (to the left of the panel for Monitor A, to the right for Monitor B)
repeatedly until the desired image appears on the monitor.

NOTE:
For systems which have a single video source, there is no need for switching and the wall control
panel is not provided.

NOTE:
The video channel selected for display is indicated by one of the four blue LED indicators
associated with that monitor on the panel. If fewer than 4 video inputs are provided, or if
any monitor does not have a video source connected to it, the monitor will show a blank
image when the associated channel is selected.

To Select a Video Signal for Display at a Monitor Using the Monitor Handle

NOTE:

This section applies only to systems with the optional video switching.

Video Display Systems with switching capability may be provided with a button at the bottom of
the sterilizable handle adjacent to each monitor. Channel selection is achieved by repeatedly
pressing this button until the desired image is displayed.

NOTE:

The selection button on the handle performs the same function as the selection button at the
optional wall control panel.

NOTE:
This operation should only be performed by a surgeon or other sterile staff member. Operation by
a non-sterile member of staff will contaminate the handle, which should be immediately replaced
with a sterile handle or covered by a sterile disposable cover.

NOTE:
The video channel selected for display is indicated at the wall control panel by one of the four blue
LED indicators associated with that monitor. If fewer than 4 video inputs are provided, or if any
monitor does not have a video source connected to it, the monitor will show a blank image when
the associated channel is selected.

Maintenance

WARNING:

Cleaning/Sterilization

Cleaning:

Only facility-authorized maintenance personnel should perform maintenance on the
Nuvo Surgical Monitor. Maintenance performed by unauthorized personnel could
result in personal injury or equipment damage.

CAUTION:

Nuvo Video Display Systems – User Manual

Using enzymatic detergents aids in the decontamination process. Measure all detergents carefully,
and use them in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

Take care to avoid the use of cleaning materials that contain high concentrations of alcohol or
chlorine as these may lead to premature aging of the monitor screen.

NOTE:
All surfaces which are within reach of staff should be cleaned between each surgical procedure.

Sterilization:

Sterilization, if desired, can be accomplished by using any FDA-cleared liquid sterilant. In areas
outside of the USA, follow individual facility policies addressing the use of liquid sterilants.
Manufacturer’s recommendations should always be followed.

Care should be taken not to pour cleaning fluids onto the rotating joints or monitor.
It is recommended to use a moist cloth to wipe down the joints and monitor.
Ensure that no moisture seeps into the rotating joints or monitor.

Sterilizable Handle

After every surgical operation:

• Remove the handle from the lighthead

• Wipe with a disposable cloth

• Clean and disinfect in a suitable cleaning and disinfecting machine

• Sterilize the handle

M2Z00167 Page 12

Nuvo Video Display Systems – User Manual

The sterilizable handle can be sterilized three ways:

• Cold, by using cleaners recommended for hospitals and authorized by a competent health

authority

• Steam

• Flash in either gravity displacement or pre-vacuum sterilizers

The minimum flash exposure times are shown in the following table:

NOTE:

The sterilized handle should only be fitted immediately before use.

NOTE:

Service Life of Sterilizable Handle: Frequent sterilization causes natural degradation of the
replaceable handle. If signs of material fatigue such as cracking or discoloration occur, the handle
should be replaced.

NOTE:
If preferred, sterile handle covers can be used, as described below, instead of replacing the
sterilizable handle after each procedure.

Using Optional Sterile Handle Covers

The sterile handle accepts the use of the LiteGlove
equivalent products, from Medical Action or DeRoyal

To install the handle cover, follow these steps:

1. Take the cover from its packaging.

2. Unfold the cover as needed.

3. Install the cover over the sterile handle.
