Chapter 2

Warnings, Cautions, and Notes

ventilator power before removing the heated expiratory bacteria filter. Exercise caution when handling the filter housing.

• All oxygen connections should be carefully inspected to ensure that leaks are not present. Excessive leaks can result in higher than normal ambient oxygen concentrations and create a potentially hazardous oxygen-enriched environment.

• Worn/frayed oxygen hoses or oxygen hoses contaminated by hydrocarbon greases or oils should not be used since an oxygen leak or intense fire could result.

• Care in the routing of the oxygen inlet hose should be exercised to ensure it is not exposed to mechanisms that could cause damage by cutting or heating/melting.

• The cover plate for the PCMCIA slot at the back of the ventilator must be replaced after the adapter and card are installed. This is to protect the ventilator.

• AC power is applied to the humidifier from the ventilator humidifier outlet (only available on 100-120 VAC ventilators). Under no circumstances does the Respironics V200 Ventilator provide control for the humidifier. To ensure patient safety, it is important that any humidifier used with the ventilator include an acceptable temperature control and monitoring mechanism, as well as a temperature display and appropriate alarm capabilities (refer to ISO 8185).

• To avoid electrical shock hazard, connect the ventilator to a properly grounded AC power outlet.

• The ventilator front panel LEDs will indicate the power source that is being used. If the ventilator is plugged in and the MAINS LED is not lit, either the circuit breaker is off or the wall power outlet is not functioning.

• The two circuit breakers (MAINS/Humidifier) located on the back of the ventilator are covered to prevent unintentional ventilator power-off. Do not use the circuit breaker to power the ventilator on/off. The power switch is located on the front of the ventilator below the front panel.

• Always turn the ventilator power OFF before connecting additional equipment.

• Use only Respironics approved cables when connecting to the remote alarm port. Be sure to fully insert the cable into the remote alarm port and into the remote alarm.

2-2 Respironics V200 Ventilator Operator’s Manual REF 1057983 A

Chapter 2

Warnings, Cautions, and Notes

• When using the Re mote Alarm Port be sure to fully test the

Remote Alarm Port and cable by:

• Verifying that annunciated alarms on the ventilator are also annunciated on the remote alarm.

• Verifying that disconnecting the cable from the Remote. Alarm port results in an alarm notification at the Remote Alarm.

• Verifying that disconnecting the cable from the remote alarm results in an alarm notification at the Remote Alarm.

• Ensure that an alternative means of ventilation (that is, a resuscitator or similar device) is available while the ventilator is in use on a patient.

• The ventilator complies with the requirements of IEC 601-1-2 (EMC collateral standard), including the E-field susceptibility requirements at a level of 10 volts per meter. However, even at this level of immunity, certain transmitting devices (cellular phones, walkie-talkies, etc.) emit radio frequencies that could disrupt ventilator operation if operated in a range too close to the ventilator.

• DO NOT operate the ventilator in a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) environment.

• V ent Inop is a serious condition, which is indicated by both visual and audible alarms. If the ventilator is attached to a patient when Vent Inop occurs, the patient must be supported with another means of life support ventilation.

• When the battery low indicator is flashing red, operation of the ventilator from battery power should be discontinued.

• For patient safety the HIP Limit Setting should be set as close to the peak inspiratory pressure as patient conditions allow.

• DO NOT perform the preoperational procedure when the ventilator is on a patient.

• You wi ll be warned if the compliance is 9.0 ml/cmH

O (hPa) or

larger. Patients should not be put on a patient circuit that does not meet this requirement.

• A high priority, visual and audible alarm indicates a potentially life-threatening condition and immediate response is required.

• When the safety valve open indicator is lit, the ventilator d o es not provide any ventilatory support to the patient. Immediately use a backup means of ventilatory support.

• Visually monitor the patient and ventilator during the Alarm Silence period to ensure that alarms do not go undetected. Allowing alarm conditions to continue without interventi on may result in harm to the patient and/or ventil ator.

• Do not expose expiratory and inspiratory bacteria filters or reusable patient tubing to ETO gas.

REF 1057983 A Respironics V200 Ventilator Operator’s Manual 2-3

Chapter 2

Warnings, Cautions, and Notes

• Disposable or single-patient filters must be discarded between patients. Do not chemically disinfect or expose single patient use bacteria filters to ETO gas.

• The patient must be disconnected from the ventilator before entering the Diagnostic Mode since normal ventilation is suspended.

• Do not use a ventilator that has failed SST without verifying operational readiness by other means. Doing so may place a patient at risk.

• Never initiate SST while the patient is connected to the ventilator. The high airway pressures generated during SST can injure a patient.

• Never initiate EST while the patient is connected to the ventilator. The high airway pressures and gas flows generated during EST can injure a patient.

• Do not use a ventilator that has failed EST without verifying operational readiness by other means. Doing so may place a patient at risk.

• Remove the ventilator from service and contact trained service personnel if any diagnostic codes appear with the exception of: 1, 3, 2000, 3000, 5000, 5002, 8003, or 8004.

• Use of a ventilator that has not passed SST or EST is against the strongest recommendation of Respironics.

• Please contact Respironics Customer Service at 1-800-345-6443 or consult your service manual if any diagnostic codes are encountered.

• When connecting a humidifier to the humidifier outlet (available only on 100-120 VAC ventilators) allowable leakage current values may be exceeded.

• The use of accessories, cables, and transducers other than those specified may result in increased EM emissions or decreased immunity of the system.

• We recommend that you use an oxygen monitor that complies with ISO-7767; Oxygen Monitors or Monitoring Patient Breathing Mixtures - Safety Requirements. This requirement ensures that the desired fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) is delivered to the patient.

• The batteries (backup battery) in the battery compartment are non-spillable sealed lead acid. Recycle or dispose of bat ter ies properly.

• Do not connect the DC power cord from the backup battery while the Respironics V200 is functioning as a ventilator. Always turn the Power On/Off switch to off ( ).

Cautions

Chapter 2

Warnings, Cautions, and Notes

• Backup battery operating life may be affected by battery age and

the number of times it has been discharged and recharged. Over time the battery will degenerate and will not provide the same amount of operating time per charge that is available from a fully charged new battery. Use only the Respironics backup battery P/ N 1059956.

• Titrate the EPAP level such that the masks air entrainment valve

(if present) remains closed to room air. Always evaluate and monitor patient condition when ad justing EPAP or other settings.

• The backlight lamps in the monitor display contain mercury,

which must be recycled or disposed of in accordance with local, state, or federal laws. (Within this system, the backlight lamps in the monitor display contain mercury.)

• Federal law (U SA) restrict s this device to sale by or on the order of

a physician.

• Be sure to check all exterior parts of the ventilator. Problems

found during inspection should be corrected and/or reported to Respironics before using the ventilator.

• Always ship the ventilator using the original packing material. If

the original material is not available, contac t your Respironics representative to order replacement s.

• Do not operate the ventilator without a properly functioning

expiratory filter and heater. Doing so may cause damage to delicate ventilator components, such as the expiratory flow sensor, which may lead to inaccurate spirometry or a Vent Inop condition.

• The ventilator oxygen filter should be replaced annually as a part

of preventive maintenance.

• The PCMCIA card should only be removed by trained service

personnel once power to the ventilator is off.

• To avoid the possibility of damage t o the ventilator, do not connect

a humidifier whose maximum rati ng exc eed s 3 am ps. Ensure tha t the humidifier power cord is free from defects and any obvious wear, and is properly grounded. A hu mi difier connection is only available on 100-120VAC ventilators.

• Before connecting the ventilator to the AC power source, ensure

that the total electrical load does not exceed the ampere rating of the AC branch circuit, especially when using the ventilator with other electrical equipment. An AC branch circuit includes all outlets serviced by a single circuit breaker. If the maximum current drain through a branch circuit exceeds the circuit breaker’s rating, the branch circuit will open, causing the

ventilator to lose power. For further information, consult a service technician or a trained biomedical technician.

• The ventilator is shipped with a power cord that complies with electrical safety standards. Do not use substitute power cords unless specifically instructed to do so by an authorized distributor or qualified personnel. Do not modify the power cord or connect it with electrical extension cords or outlet adapters.

• To prevent the risk of excessive leakage due to external equipment being connected to the ventilator via the communication ports, a means for external separation of the conductive earth paths must be provided.

• All equipment used and connected to the ventilator communications ports (analog, parallel, and serial) must comply with the medical electrical equipment (IEC601-1) or other applicable standards.

• The remote alarm port is intended to connect only to SELV (safety extra low voltage and ungrounded system with basic insulation to ground), in accordance with IEC60601-1. To prevent damage to the remote alarm, the signal input should not exceed the maximum rating of 24 VAC or 36 VDC at 500 mA with a minimum current of 1 mA.

• Failure to protect the expiratory filter from damage by using inappropriate patient circuit configurations may cause damage to delicate ventilator components, such as the expiratory flow sensor, which may lead to inaccurate spirometry or a Vent Inop condition.

• If clinical conditions do not require setting the HIP Limit above 60 cmH cmH

O, we recommend the setting normally be adjusted to 60

O or less in order to prolong the operating life of the blower

and to maximize backup battery run time.

• The ventilator alarm indicators and the Alerts insert should be monitored closely during the Alarm Silence period to ensure that unexpected alarms are noticed.

• If an alarm persists for no apparent reason, contact Respironics Customer Service at 1-800-345-6443.

• Care should be taken when cleaning the touch display. (Refer to Figure 8-2 on page page 8-3). A soft moist cloth should be used that does not drip water and/or soap solution when in contact with the display. After cleaning and rinsing with a damp cloth, remove all moisture with a dry, soft cloth. Never allow solutions of any kind to collect on the bottom bezel of the display. Never use a brush or device that can cause abrasion to clean the touch display or its bezel; they will cause irreparable damage.

• Do not remove any screws from the cooling filter area. Removing screws from this area will result in damage to internal components.

• Manual breaths are not permitted during the inspiratory phase of a

breath (whether manual or spontaneous). Pressing the MANUAL BREATH key during these times will not result in the delivery of a manual breath.

• Some settings buttons appear active despite the fact they are not

being used in the ACTIVE MODE. This is because the setting is used in Apnea Ventilation or when manual inspiration is pressed. The operator should always choose a value for an active button that is appropriate for the patient being ventilated.

• When the active mode is set to NPPV, the HIP Limit Setting will

• The V200 Ventilator keeps a distinct set of alarm limits for each

ventilation breath type (VCV, PCV and NPPV).

• Any of the changes made in the screen shown in Figure 8-18, do

not take effect until the operator switches to the new ventilation breath type (in this case Pressure Control).

Warnings, Cautions, and Notes

• If the EXP HOLD key is held continuousl y, and the expiratory hold maneuver exceeds 5 seconds, the ventilator automatically terminates the expiratory hold maneuver and begins a new inspiratory period.

• If Auto PEEP as calculated in Equation 1: Aut o-PEEP = Expiratory Pause Pressure – End Expiratory Pressure, is negative, Auto-PEEP will be displayed as “—.”

• All components of the patient circuit must not have leaks in order to pass SST.

• If time is found to be incorrect more than once in the preoperational procedure, an internal battery may have to be replaced. Contact qualified service personnel or call Respironics Customer Service at 1-800-345-6443.

• Because conditions and practices in health care institutions vary, this manual can only describe general guidelines. It is the user’s responsibility to ensure the validity and effectiveness of the methods used.

• Because some environments cause a quicker collection of lint and dust than others, inspect and clean the fan filters more often than every 250 hours if necessary.

• The “Hardware” function and EST in the Diagnostics Mode should only be run by qualified personnel.

• A “restart” is an infrequent event.

• The gas return port on the ventilator is a cylindrical port which requires mating to a specified expiratory filter to seal the expiratory limb.

• The humidifier power connection is available only on 100-120V AC ventilators.

• Record O

sensor manufacturing or warranty numbers and

installation date for future reference. Save manufacturers instruction about end of life replacement.

• To ensure accurate O

monitoring, check O2 sensors periodically

and replace as per manufacturer specification.

• Sensor performance and expected operating life information is outlined in the sensor manufacturer’s instructions for use. Thoroughly review all O

sensor instructions prior to installation

and use with the Respironics V200 Ventilator.

•O

sensor calibration is performed during EST. If recalibration of

the O

sensor is required, follow the instructions in “Extend e d

Self Test (EST)” on page 11-4 for running EST.
