General Information

Incubator/Warmer operating modes

The GiraffeTMOmniBedTM combines the features of an incubator and a radiant warmer. When used as an incubator, a fan and heater beneath the bed circulate warm air through the closed infant compartment. The baby can be accessed through portholes or doors. When you require even greater access to the baby, the canopy can be raised and the compartment walls can be lowered. As the canopy raises, doors open to expose a focused radiant heating element inside the canopy that maintains the baby’s temperature like a warmer. The OmniBed allows the full range of clinical procedures without the disruptive intervention of transferring the baby from one care bed to another.

General Information

Control Modes

The OmniBed has two control modes when used as either an incubator or a warmer. With the compartment closed, the OmniBed controls the inside temperature comparing air temperature readings from the probe on the compartment wall to a setting you enter using the control panel (air mode) or from a probe attached to the baby’s skin (baby mode). With the canopy raised, the OmniBed controls radiant heater output from a heater power percentage setting that you enter using the control panel (manual mode) or by using temperature readings from a probe attached to the baby’s skin (baby

mode).

Controls and Displays

The controls and displays, located at the top of the uprights at the head of the bed, can be divided into two areas: on the left are the buttons and numeric temperature displays that control the temperature regulation of the infant, on the right are the graphics display screen and control knob that control all the accessory options.Temperatures can be shown in Celsius or Fahrenheit degrees: the default setting is Celsius.

Temperature Regulation

At start up, the OmniBed prompts you to select one of the control modes. If the unit was used in the last 2 hours, it will ask if you would like to retain the settings you used previously. If you are using the OmniBed as an incubator (canopy closed)you select baby or air mode. If you are using the OmniBed as a warmer (canopy open)- you select baby or manual mode.

If you start with the canopy open, or open the bed during the first minutes after start up, and you do not select a control mode, the graphics screen will show the “Warm Up Mode” message and the radiant heater will automatically run at 100% power. When ten minutes has elapsed and you still have not selected a control mode, the graphics display will show the “Preheat Zone” message and the radiant heater will then run at the preheat level; the default preheat level setting is 25% power.

General Information

Operating Mode Transition

If the canopy is raised while the OmniBed is being operated as an incubator, it automatically switches to operation as a radiant warmer. If it was in the baby mode as an incubator, after the canopy is raised it will continue to operate in the baby mode, using the same baby set temperature you entered earlier.

If the canopy is raised while the OmniBed is being operated in the air mode as an incubator, it will operate in the manual mode as a warmer. The radiant heater will activate at the preheat level (the factory set preheat level is 25%; this can be adjusted on the service screen), and the OmniBed will prompt you to select a heater power percentage.

If the canopy is lowered while the OmniBed is being operated as a radiant warmer, it automatically switches to operation as an incubator. If it was in the baby mode as a warmer, after the canopy is lowered it will continue to operate in the baby mode, using the same baby set temperature you entered earlier.

If the canopy is lowered while the OmniBed is being operated in the manual mode as an warmer, it will operate in the air mode as an incubator. The compartment heater and fan will start at the last air set temperature saved since power-off, or at the preheat temperature of 33°C, and the OmniBed will prompt you to select an air set temperature.

Alarms

An alarm message appears across the top graphics display screen identifying the various alarm conditions. In addition, the alarm light at the top of the control panel housing activates and an audio alarm sounds.

The audio tone varies with the alarm’s priority: an alternating two tone alarm indicates a critical alarm that triggers automatic heater shutdown; an intermittent single tone alarm is used for other alarms. The alarm light remains on continuously for over temperature and system failure alarms; it blinks for all other alarms.

With the exception of the system failure and power failure alarms, all audio alarms can be silenced by pressing the alarm silence button located above the graphics screen. At the end of the alarm silence period the alarm reactivates if the alarm condition has not been resolved. If two or more alarm conditions occur at the same time, the audio signal for the highest priority alarm will sound while all the alarm messages will alternately appear at the top of the graphics screen. If you select the Help icon during an alarm condition, the description of that particular alarm will automatically appear on the screen.

High Air Temperature

Active only when the canopy is closed and the unit is in the air mode, the High Air Temperature alarm triggers when the temperature measured by the compartment probe exceeds the air temperature you set previously by more than 1.5°C. The audio alarm is suspended for a ten minutes when you push the alarm silence button. This alarm usually occurs when you have just lowered the air set temperature, or when you have changed from baby to air control mode. Monitor the unit closely to assure the air temperature decreases.

These alarms warn of abnormally high temperatures read by the compartment probe in all control modes and automatically shut off the heater . They are not self resetting; once the alarms are activated they must be manually reset by pushing the alarm silence button, even if the alarm condition is resolved.

Computer independent circuitry continuously measures and compares the compartment temperature with factory set levels. Visual and audible alarms are activated and the heater shuts off if the compartment temperature exceeds these preset levels, independent of the software.

The functionality of all other alarms is continually checked by the microprocessor software during normal operation. If a fault occurs in any of this circuitry, an indicator lights and a tone is sounded.

Additionally , a computer independent “watchdog” circuit will reset the computer, turn off the heater, and activate the alarms in the event of a microprocessor failure or software error.

Air Temperature >38 C

Active only when the canopy is closed and the set temperature is below 37°C, the Air Temp >38°C alarm activates in the air mode when temperatures greater than 38°C are read by the compartment probe. This alarm may occur when you have just lowered the air set temperature, or when you have changed from baby to air control mode. Monitor the unit closely to assure the air temperature decreases.

Preoperative Checkout Procedure

Setup

Your OmniBed has been shipped to you with the canopy in the locked down position. Before the canopy can be raised the rail locks must be released. They are located in both sides of the OmniBed near the outside bottom of the uprights. An orange tear-away label marks their location. The lock consists of a socket head cap screw in a slot. Tightening the screw disengages the screw head from the slot and releases the lift rail. Using the 4mm hex key provided with the unit, turn the screw clockwise about 8 rotations until the screw securely seats in its hole. Remove the tear away label.

Mechanical checks

WARNINGS

1. Disconnect the power cord for the mechanical portion of the preoperative checkout procedure.

2. Examine the power cord for any signs of damage. Replace the cord if damage is evident.

3. Check that both plug retaining brackets are in place.

4. Examine the unit overall for any damaged or missing parts.

5. Check that all the casters are in firm contact with the floor and that the unit is stable. Lock the caster brakes and check that they hold the unit in place. Release the brakes and check that the unit moves smoothly.

6. Check the operation of the two side doors. Open the doors and check that they swing all the way down and hang perpendicular to the bed. Check that the doors are securely attached to the unit and that the hinge pins are properly seated. Check that the inner walls are securely fastened to the doors. Close the doors and check that the latches hold the doors securely shut. The red latch open indicators should not be visible when the latches are engaged. Check that the top of the doors meet the canopy seal.

7. Check the portholes. Open the portholes by pressing on the latch. The cover should swing open. Close the porthole and check that the latch holds the cover securely shut and that the cover seals tightly against the porthole gasket. Check that all the porthole seals are in place and are in good condition.

Operating the OmniBed

Basic Operating Procedure

WARNING

w Always set the brakes before placing

a patient in the unit.

w Do not leave the patient unattended

when using the OmniBed. Check the patient’s temperature periodically to ensure the comfort and the safety of the patient. If the warmer is used for an extended time, it is recommended that the baby control mode be used. When an alarm is silenced, close monitoring of the patient’s condition is required.

w Use of electrosurgical units or other

electrical field radiating equipment can affect the operation of the unit. Keep the patient probe lead as far away as possible from electrosurgical cables. Do not allow excess electrical cables to be laid on the bed platform. Use of electrosurgical units or other instruments which radiate electrical fields can cause indirect heating, by several tenths of a degree of the skin temperature probe due to absorbed electrical energy. When using these devices near the radiant warmer, operate the warmer in manual mode for maximum safety.

w The use of phototherapy equipment

may raise the patient’s temperature.

w Radiant warmers increase an infant’s

insensible water loss. Take appropriate measures to maintain the patient’s fluid balance while caring for them in a radiant warmer.

w Radiant energy can adversely affect

blood components. When using intravenous tubing systems for delivery of blood components to patients occupying a warmer, shield any tubing with aluminum foil.

w When using as a radiant warmer,

change the patient’s diapers frequently. Radiant energy causes more rapid urine evaporation, and may lead to inaccurate urine diagnosis test analysis and inaccurate weight measurements.

3-1 6600-0342-011 08/08/01 3-1

Operating the OmniBed

w When operating as a radiant warmer, use the

baby mode unless the manual mode is specifically prescribed. While both modes require patient monitoring, the manual mode requires constant attention. In the manual mode, you must take the responsibility for detecting changes in the environment (drafts, direct sunlight, phototherapy lamp usage, etc.) or the patient condition requiring heater adjustments in response to these changes. In the baby mode, the warmer automatically adjusts heater output to maintain the desired skin temperature, reducing (but not eliminating) the need to monitor the patient and make adjustments to the equipment.

w Using an OmniBed with a fan motor that has

worn parts can produce unacceptable noise levels within the infant compartment.

w Direct sunlight or other radiant heat sources

can cause an increase in OmniBed temperature to dangerous levels.

w Do not leave the baby unattended while any

side panels are lowered or removed.

w Do not place objects on top of the canopy.

When the canopy is raised, objects could fall off and injure the operator. Do not route leads or tubing over the top of the canopy or tape leads or tubing to the canopy, since raising the canopy could pull leads and tubing from patient or equipment connections. Always check for accessories or objects that could be in the canopy’s path before raising or lowering the canopy.

CAUTIONS

1. Plug the unit into a properly rated AC power outlet and set the caster brakes.

2. Place the mains power switch, located by the outlets on the back of the unit, in the On (I) position.

3. Place the power Stand By switch, located on the left side of the jack panel, in the On (I) position.

4. Depending on whether the unit is to be used as an incubator or as a warmer, raise or lower the canopy using the hand switches located on either side of the bed near the uprights.

w Proper temperature control depends on continu-

ous, unobstructed air circulation. Do not cover air circulation openings around the bed as obstruction will result in loss of air circulation, loss of heat, and carbon dioxide buildup.

w Do not mount or rest a radiant warmer or

incandescent light on or over the OmniBed canopy; ineffective heating and damage to the canopy may result. If using incandescent phototherapy lamps, check manufacturer’s recommended minimum distance to canopy.

3-2 6600-0342-011 08/08/01 3-2

Operating the OmniBed

5. Check the following:

- All LED segments and Screen pixels light, then go blank

- All installed options appear on graphics screen

- Patient history query appears

- Operator prompt sounds

WARNING w The patient probe is not isolated from earth

ground. Any additional equipment used with the Giraffe OmniBed must comply with IEC 601.

Operation as an Incubator

Always preheat the bed before placing the baby in the bed.

1. Select air control mode. If the baby mode is desired, preheat the bed in air mode. A suggested thermal neutral temperature can be calculated using the comfort zone screen.

2. Select a temperature setting using the temperature/power buttons.

3. Place the baby in the bed.

4. For baby mode operation, connect the skin temperature probe to probe jack 1. In the air mode, use a probe only if you wish to display the patient skin temperature. See “Attaching the Skin Temperature Probe” later in this section.

5. If baby mode is desired, press the Baby mode button.

6. Select a temperature setting using the temperature/power buttons.

Operation as a Warmer

Always preheat the bed before placing the baby in the bed.

1. Select a control mode (manual mode is the default). Preheat the bed in the manual mode. Power settings in the preheat range can be set without causing a check patient alarm. The preheat range is factory set at 0 to 25%. This range can be changed on the service screen.

If you start with the canopy open, or open the bed during the first minute after start up, and you do not select a control mode, or enter a percentage power setting the graphics screen will show the “Warm Up Mode” message and the radiant heater will automatically run at 100% power. When ten minutes has elapsed and you still have not selected a control mode, the graphics display will show the “Preheat Zone” message and the radiant heater will then run at the maximum preheat level.

2. Select power percentage setting using the temperature/power buttons.

3. Place the baby in the bed.

4. For baby mode operation, connect the skin temperature probe to probe jack 1. In the manual mode, use a probe only if you wish to display the patient skin temperature. See “Attaching the Skin Temperature Probe” later in this section.

5. If baby mode is desired, press the Baby mode button.

6. Select a temperature setting using the temperature/power buttons.

Operating the OmniBed

Attaching the Skin Temperature Probe

1. Place the skin probe on the baby’s skin. If the baby is prone, place the probe on the baby’s back. Make sure the baby’s skin is clean and dry before applying the probe. If you are using the OmniBed as a warmer, the probe must be directly in the path of the radiant heat. Doing any of the following may result in under or over heating the baby:

• Do not place the probe between the baby and the mattress- inaccurate readings will result.

• Do not remove the reflective foil from the disposable probe or reflective patch. Do not use a probe without a reflective patch. Replace the patch when repositioning the probe or when adhesive strength degrades.

• Do not pull on the probe wire. Remove the probe from the skin by gently pulling on the adhesive patch. Remove the probe from the jack panel by grasping the plug at the panel.

• Regularly check that the probe is attached- if the probe is not in contact with the baby’s skin inaccurate readings will result.

• Only use Ohmeda Medical probes; other manufacturers probes are not calibrated to Ohmeda Medical equipment. Using probes from other manufacturers may cause inaccurate temperature readings, may not comply with safety standards, and will void your Ohmeda Medical equipment warranty.

• When using phototherapy lamps, the probe must be directly in the path of the radiant heat of the lamp; do not place the probe in an area shielded from the lamp’s light. The phototherapy lamp may raise the baby’s skin temperature.

• Do not use rectal temperatures to control the baby’s temperature.

• Do not remove the probe from its storage bag until required for use. Replace the probe if the cable or tip becomes damaged.

2. To attach the disposable probe (single use only), peel the paper backing from the adhesive side and apply to the baby’s skin, with the reflective foil side up.

To attach the reusable probe, use the heat reflecting patch. Place the metal side of the probe against the baby’s skin, peel the paper backing from the adhesive side of the patch and place the patch over the probe with the reflective foil side up.

3. Route the probe wire through the tubing access covers at the corners of the bed sides or through the ventilator slot in the back side wall.

4. Plug the probe wire into the jack panel.

Note: The OmniBed cannot differentiate between an

increase in core temperature with cold skin (fever), and low core and skin temperatures (hypothermia). Patient temperature should be verified with an axillary thermometer.

Operating the OmniBed

Raising the Canopy

To allow immediate access to the baby when the OmniBed is being used as an incubator, one touch of the foot pedal, or the canopy up switch at the head of the bed, raises the canopy to its upper travel limit in one uninterrupted movement. Touching the pedal or switch a second time while the canopy is raising will stop upward movement.

To lower the canopy, press and hold the canopy down switch at the head of the bed. If you remove your finger from the switch, downward movement stops.

Note: The canopy foot pedal can only be used to raise the canopy; the switch at the head of the bed must be used to lower the canopy .

Raising and lowering the bed

WARNING

The bed can be raised or lowered using the bed height pedals located on the legs on either side of the OmniBed. The bed height can be adjusted low enough for use by a seated caregiver, or can be raised high enough for procedures preformed by standing caregivers.

w Before raising or lowering the bed,

check that there is adequate slack in tubing and leads and that no obstructions limit the range of motion.

Tilting the bed

The bed tilts twelve degrees to allow feet up or head up positioning of the baby . The tilt release is located inside the bed area at the head of the bed. Pinch it closed to release it with one hand while placing the other hand on the foot of the bed to control tilt speed (A). The bed rocks at its center like a seesaw , so pushing down on one end raises the other. Letting go of the release at any point on the tilt path locks the bed in that position.

Using the X-ray tray

Raise the canopy and place a film cassette on the tray that slides out from under the mattress for X-ray procedures. The tray slides out on either side of the bed (A). The cassette can be slid into the cavity under the mattress without moving the baby . X-rays may be taken with canopy up or down.

Administering oxygen

WARNINGS

w To administer free flow oxygen within

the infant compartment, use only a servo-controlled oxygen delivery system. If a servo-controlled oxygen system is not used, variations in fan speed may cause unexpected changes in O2 levels.

w Additional oxygen should only be

administered under the direction of qualified medical personnel.

w The use of head boxes, hoods and

oxygen inlets can increase the noise level inside the OmniBed.

w Remove all sources of ignition including

smoking materials, and sources of electrical discharge from the area when oxygen is in use. In the presence of high oxygen concentrations, even relatively nonflammable items can ignite and burn rapidly. Do not place auxiliary equipment producing sparks inside the incubator. Even small quantities of highly flammable items (such as organic cleaning solvents) may explode.

CI.31.073

Installing wristlets

Unlike other incubators you may have used, Giraffe porthole wristlets are installed on the inside of the porthole, between the porthole and the inner wall. First open the side door by pinching the latches and lowering the door, then push out on the tabs on the back of the door latches to release the top of the inner wall. Swing the wall away from the door. Stretch the larger elastic band on wristlet around the rim of the porthole seal so that it fits into the groove behind the rim, then swing the inner wall back so it snaps into the locked position to secure the wristlet in place. Close the side door.

Operating the OmniBed

Using the humidifier

WARNING

w Allow the heater cylinder to cool

about ten minutes before removing the reservoir.

The OmniBed servo-humidifier maintains a selected humidity percentage relative to readings from a humidity sensor in the infant compartment.

The water reservoir should always be in place when you use the OmniBed. Always use distilled water to fill the reservoir. The reservoir holds a little more than a liter of water.

To fill the reservoir, grasp it and push down (A); the reservoir will tilt open for filling. Fill to the fill line on the heater cylinder, not the line on the reservoir. Tilt the reservoir back into place.

Use the Humidifier screen on the graphics display to start humidification and set a desired humidity level. See accessory options in chapter 1 for a description of how the humidifier control screen works.

To remove the reservoir, grasp the bottom of the reservoir and pull it away from the bed, then lower the reservoir down away from the unit (B). Hold the reservoir under the heater cylinder for a few seconds to allow the water in the cylinder to drain back into the reservoir.

Drain the humidifier reservoir when the unit is not in use. Disinfect the reservoir weekly or after each patient. Refer to the section “Cleaning and disinfecting individual components” in chapter 4 for disinfection instructions.

3-9 6600-0342-011 08/08/01 3-9

Operating the OmniBed

The Nurse Call alarms works with the OmniBed’s audible alarm. Silencing the audible alarm on the OmniBed stops the Nurse Call alarm even if the alarm condition still exists. At the end of the silence period, the Nurse Call alarm and the audible alarm reactivate unless the condition has been resolved. The alarm silence period ends prematurely if another alarm triggers.

Refer to the Appendix for additional information on Nurse Call connections.

Nurse Call checkout:

1. Complete the basic operating procedure in chapter 3.

2. Verify proper operation of the Nurse Call station.

3. Connect the Nurse Call connector to the OmniBed.

4. Unplug the unit to trigger an alarm. Verify that you also get an alarm at the Nurse Call station.

Note: Any power interruption (switching off the unit, accidentally unplugging the power cord, etc.) triggers a Nurse Call alarm.

Using the In-Bed Scale

The OmniBed can be equipped with its own in-bed scale that is operated from the graphics screen. See accessory options in chapter 1 for information about the scale menu screens work.

Scale installation

1. Remove the clear plate and mattress from the bed.

2. Fit the scale weighing platform into the recesses in the bed.

3. Route the scale cable though a tubing access cover or the ventilator slot and plug the connector into the jack panel.

4. Place the clear plate and mattress on the weighing platform. Make sure they are properly seated on the platform.

Weighing procedure

The baby should be in approximately the center of the bed. Stuffed animals and other objects should not lean against side walls. All leads, I.V. tubes and ventilator tubes should be secured. Blankets may be tucked under the mattress, but must not be tucked under the weighing platform.

1. Make sure the bed tilt platform is completely level; if the scale is tilted it will effect weighing accuracy.

2. Select the scale icon options display to bring up the scale menu. If the scale is not connected, no icon will appear.

3. Select weigh from the menu to initiate weighing.

4. In order to “zero” the scale, the display will prompt you to lift the baby by showing the “Lift Baby” icon while a tone sounds. Lift the baby and any tubing or leads attached to the baby. Make sure that arms, legs, blankets, and clothing are clear of the mattress.
