NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected
by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
a
The ISM(industrial, scientific and medical) bands between 150kHz and 80MHz are 6.765MHz to
6.795MHz; 13.553 MHz to 14.567 MHz; 26.957 MHz to 27.283 MHz; and 40.66 MHz to 40.70
MHz.
b
The compliance levels in the ISM frequency bands between 150kHz and 80MHz and in the
frequency range 80 MHz to 2.5GHz are intended to decrease the likelihood that mobile/portable
communications equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently brought into patient
areas. For this reason, an additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the recommended
separation distance for transmitters in these frequency ranges.
c
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless)
telephones and land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast
cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due
to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured
field strength in the location in which the Infant Incubator is used exceeds the applicable RF
compliance level above, the Infant Incubator should be observed to verify normal operation. If
abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting
or relocating the Infant Incubator.
d
Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3V/m.

HUMIDITY PRECAUTIONS
1. The incubator is with the humidity controller, it can increase the Humidity of incubator

according to the clinical demands.

2. Higher relative humidity will, at any given time, decrease an infant’s evaporative water loss and

may cause an increase in infant temperature. Monitor the infant’s temperature as required.

3. Use only distilled water to fill or refill the Reservoir. Tap water may contain organisms that may

flourish in the heated water of the humidifier.

4. Make sure all hood access door gaskets and tubing ports are properly installed. Any open gaps

in the incubator hood will reduce the incubator’s internal relative humidity.

5. Fill the humidity chamber to the bottom of the MAXIUM LIMIT line. DO NOT OVERFILL. Or

else water spillage may result.

6. At high humidity levels within the incubator hood (typically more than 80%RH), condensation

may form on the inside walls of the hood.

7. When there is much more difference between the humidity setting value and the humidity of

environment, it is very difficult to reach the needed control value of the humidity inside of the

incubator.

8. Following the doctor’s advice when setting the relative humidity.

OXYGEN PRECAUTIONS
1. This incubator is with oxygen control system, please use medical oxygen when feeding oxygen.

2. Abusing of supplemental oxygen may result in serious aftereffects which include blindness,

brain damage, even death. Therefore, keeping to the main doctor's direction strictly and

monitoring the oxygen supplement condition for the patient in a regularly time.

3. If it is necessary to administer Oxygen in an emergency, notify the attending physician

immediately.

4. When supplementing the oxygen, calibrated oxygen analyzer must be turned on for monitoring

the oxygen concentration.

5. Oxygen feeding may increase the noise level inside the hood.

6. As Oxygen use increases the danger of fire. To ensure the device safety, make all flammable

material far away from incubator, and auxiliary equipment producing sparks should not be placed

near incubator.

vi
I5
MANUAL FOR INFANT INCUBATOR

7. When the oil, grease, other fat substance and the compressed oxygen meet, it will self-ignite

seriously, therefore, try to avoid the oxygen pressure reducing valve/adjustment valve, valve for

oxygen cylinder, pipe, connector containing these substance.

8. Do not use combustible material like aether, alcohol etc. because once even a little aether,

alcohol, or other combustible material mixed with oxygen in the incubator, it’ll cause fire.

SECTION 3
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
3.1 OVERALL FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
The Infant Incubator adopts temperature control system (Air Mode and Baby Mode),
humidity controlling system, and oxygen concentration controlling system and weighing system (if
it is applicable).
Heat output control in Air Mode: It will control the heater’s output automatically according to
the Air temperature sensor; see instruction in section [Link];
Heat output control in Baby Mode: It will control the heater’s output automatically according
to the Skin temperature sensor, see instruction in section [Link].
Oxygen input control:Auto control the valve according to the oxygen concentration in the
incubator which detected by the oxygen concentration sensor. Please refer the section 6 to see
the details.
Reservoir humidifying output control:Auto control the humidifier according to the humidity
in the incubator which detected by the humidity sensor. Please refer the section 7 to see the
details.
The LCD screen of the controller shows the temperature of the air temperature and the
temperature measured by the skin temperature sensor and their setting values, as well as the
measured values of humidity and oxygen concentration. At the same time, the LCD screen also
shows the selected control mode 2,4,8,12 and 24 hours curve trend, among which,the curve trend
measured by the weighing system can be shown from 1 week to 7 weeks.
To indicate which parameter (air or skin) is controlling, the rotating wheel in the air or skin soft
key designator of display (figure 4.2 A) rotates.

3.2 TEMPERATURE CONTROL PRINCIPLE


The control of temperature, humidity and oxygen concentration inside hood is achieved by
means of the forced air circulation system as shown in Figure 3.1.
When the oxygen control function is off, the outside air is filtered, it will flow through the heater
which can heat the air, and then the air enters into the hood through the inlet port under the drive
of fan motor, after then, it will be cycled back to the fan motor through the inlet port to form the heat
air cycle flow. And this heat air flow will come to the top of water tank and enter into the hood with
the vapor above the water.

I5 3-1
MANUAL FOR INFANT INCUBATOR

When turning on the oxygen control function, oxygen flow through the oxygen input connector,
then passes the electromagnetism valve and enters into the air-oxygen separating device through
the oxygen input connector, after then, it enters into the heat air cycle flow under the drive of the
fan motor to supply the oxygen in the incubator.

FIGURE 3.1

3.3 DATA COMMUNICATION CONNECTOR


The incubator is equipped with RS232 data communication connector and used for data
terminal output. The RS-232 communication connector is expected to connect with POS
microprinter to achieve one-way data transmission and print temperature, alarm and other data
stored in the chip of the device. The POS microprinter, when used in the infant incubator, shall
comply with IEC or ISO safety standards.

running beside the skin temperature control mode, and it means that the incubator is working in
the Baby Mode.
IMPORTANT: The controller of Infant incubator controls the temperature in the incubator
by sensor inserted in sensor socket 1. Therefore, the sensor must be
connected to sensor socket 1 when the controller controls the temperature
in the incubator by skin temperature. The sensor connect to sensor socket 2
couldn't control the temperature but only display detected temperature.
In Baby Mode, Skin Temperature 1, Air Temperature and Set Point Temperature are
displayed at the same display. If the Skin Probe is connected with Skin Connector 2, the
temperature from the Skin Probe 2 will also be displayed there.
In the baby mode,the skin temperature sensor 1 should be closed to baby [Link] incubator
internal controller compare the skin temperature sensor 1 detect temperature value with the set
skin temperature,and according to the comparison result output control signal control temperature
heater of heating rate, eventually make the skin temperature 1 sensor detects the temperature
stability near the set value.
Infant skin temperature is trended over periods of 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours. Refer to paragraph
[Link] to select Skin Trend Display.
For setting the appropriate temperature and correctly control the baby temperature of the
infant, the incubator hold the following functions:
4-20 I5
MANUAL FOR INFANT INCUBATOR

When the temperature detected by the skin temperature sensor 1 is always below the set
temperature for more than 2℃, the incubator will rise the air temperature in the incubator in the
speed of 1℃ per hour to enable the slowly rising of the infant’s temperature and avoids the
damage caused by the rapid rising of the temperature as well. If the baby temperature detected is
always 2℃ below the set temperature in 1 hour, “Alarm Skin sensor 1 is placed wrong” alarm
will be activated by system. At that time, the incubator still rise the air temperature in the hood
slowly until the air temperature reaches the STEADY TEMPERATURE CONDITION which its
temperature is equal to “ set skin temperature -4℃”. For example, in Baby Mode, if the set
temperature is 36.5℃, finally the air temperature in the incubator will reach the STEADY
TEMPERATURE CONDITION which its temperature is 32.5℃.
For avoiding the incubator unnecessarily decreases its temperature for the reason of infant
pyrexia or something else, the incubator holds the following functions:
If the baby skin temperature surpasses the set temperature for less than 0.5℃, the air
temperature in the incubator will not lower 5℃ than the baby skin temperature. If the baby skin
temperature surpasses the set temperature for over than 0.5℃, the air temperature in the
incubator will not below 25℃.
For example, in Baby Mode, if the set temperature is 36℃ while the baby temperature rising
to 36.3℃, the air temperature in the incubator will not lower than 31.3℃; while the baby
temperature rising to 36.7℃ which is higher 0.5℃ than the set temperature, the air temperature in
the incubator will not lower than 25℃.

CONNECT THE PROBE OF SKIN TEMPERATURE SENSOR TO THE PATIENT:


In Baby Mode, make sure that the probe of skin temperature sensor 1 is attached closely on
the skin of patient. Put the probe on the right position of skin, and clean the position of skin where
the skin sensor located and the metal surface of skin sensor probe with alcohol or the moderate
water to wipe off the grease and dirt. In order to fix the probe' position, medical tape or the like can
be used to fix it (Disposable skin temperature sensor can be fixed with its glue). If the patient lies
on back, please stick the metal surface of skin sensor probe between the xiphoid of the belly and
the bellybutton, to avoid the liver; if the patient bends over, stick the metal surface of skin sensor
probe on the back of patient, the best place is on the kidney. If the patient lies on side, as for the
position of probe, please follow the instruction of doctor.

SECTION 7
HUMIDITY CONTROL SYSTEM
7.1 GENERAL
This section provides operation and checkout procedures and operation manual about
humidity control system.

7.2 FUNCTION DESCRIPTION


The humidity display range of the incubator is from 0%RH to 99%RH, with a setting range of
0% to 90%RH (Note: If environmental humidity is relatively high,it may not be able to achieve
relatively low humidity control). The deviation alarm is pre-set to ± 15% RH, which means in
humidity steady condition,the humidity deviation alarm will occur if the humidity value is above or
below the selected humidity setting range ± 15% RH.
Vapour produced when the water in the humidity chamber flow by the heat pipe located on
the bottom of the chamber, enters into the hood by vapour outlet port. The humidity control system
enables the humidity increase inside the chamber. The evaporating speed is decided by the power
of the heater. There’s a humidity sensor inside the sensor modular of the hood which adjusts the
output power of the evaporator. Please see the alarm introduction of section 3.4. If the alarms
about humidity are active, press silence/reset key, terminate the alarm sound for 4mins, if the
power of the temperature heater is not cut off, the power of the humidity heater will automatic cut
off when the high humidity deviation alarm is activated.
When the indicator displays “Humidity Module Switched off”, there’s something wrong with
the humidity module.

7.3 OPERATION AND CALIBRATION PROCEDURES


Please calibrate the incubator when the incubator is used for the first time or reuse it after
cleaning and installation. Before calibrating the device, please refer to section 7.4 to see how to
set humidity of the incubator.
A. Fulfill the humidity chamber to the highest level with water, then place a calibrated humidity
analyzer in the middle of the bassinet.
B. Preheating the incubator to 36℃, set the humidity value in 50%RH.
C. After temperature and humidity reach stable state, the readings on both the hygrometer
and the humidity display indicator should display 50%RH±5%RH.
D. Check the humidity deviation alarm
On humidity set mode, set the value at 40%RH, when the humidity reaches the setting value,
increase the humidity display value, keep the display value higher than set value +15%RH, the
device should give a medium priority alarm, the “Alarm Humidity Deviation” information will
replace the curve indication on the screen, the alarm character should be consistent with
description of section 3.4. On humidity set mode, set the value at 40%RH, when the humidity
reaches the setting value, decrease the humidity display value, keep the display value lower than
set value -15%RH, the device should give a medium priority alarm, the “Alarm Humidity
Deviation” information will replace the curve indication on the screen, the alarm character should
be consistent with description of section 3.4. Press silence/reset key can terminate the alarm
sound, but the alarm light still flashes until the display value is within ±15%RH. If 4mins later, the
alarm condition is still not canceled, alarm sound will start again.

I5 7-1
MANUAL FOR INFANT INCUBATOR

NOTE:If the displayed value won’t rise anymore or can’t decline to the set value in the
deviation rate more than ±15%, the alarm won’t occur. When checking the
low-deviation alarm, please make sure that the environmental humidity is
lower than the humidity in the hood so that the alarm can be activated.

7.4 USING THE HUMIDITY CONTROL SYSTEM

WARNING:In any temperature, the relatively high humidity in the incubator will decrease
the heat evaporating from the patient and result in increasing the patient’s
temperature. This is especially clear in the neonate. Therefore, temperature
control mode, temperature value and humidity value should be certified by
the chief doctor. Monitor the patient’s recta and armpit temperature
according to the doctor’s instruction.

7.4.1 Preparation
Pull the water tank out as following figure shows, adding proper distilled water into the tank.
But not over the high water level. Set the incubator in the Air control mode. It can pre-warm the air

in the hood according to the set temperature which set by the main doctor or chief nurse.
Water level display window Water Inlet

Handle Reservoir

NOTE: When the handle of the water tank is pulled to a vertical position, water level can be
observed. When the handle is pulled to the horizontal position, water tank can be
took out. (Please keep the water tank flat and straight and don't move it up towards
when it been pulled out, or else it will be hard to pulled out)

1. Do not start using the humidifying function in the condition that lack water, or
humidifying system will be damaged.
2. The water must be pushed in position when the incubator works in any time,
or will affect the normal temperature control.
3. In order to extend the service life of humidity device, the cleaned distilled
water is the only choice; the sterilized water can not take place of distilled water.
4. The water tank should be thoroughly cleaned every 24 hours and replace
cleaned distilled water, to prevent the microbial propagation and the pollution of
humidifying chamber. The water changing should be performed after the water
tank is cooling sufficient, so as not to scald. Do not exceed maximum water level.

7-2 I5
MANUAL FOR INFANT INCUBATOR

IMPORTANT:1. Please clean the water tank every time before adding water in the tank. Dry
it with a clean cloth or paper towel for both inside and outside of the water
tank to ensure than water lacking alarm will normally working.
2. Please set the humidity value to 0%RH when you're not using the
"humidify" function.

Burns may occur under the condition of high temperature and high humidity
(temp. ≥37℃, humidity ≥85%RH). Therefore, please wait no less than 45minutes
when taking out the water tank or restart the humidifier.

c
Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land
mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with
accuracy. To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey
should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the INFANT INCUBATOR is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the INFANT INCUBATOR should be observed to verify normal
operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as reorienting or
relocating the INFANT INCUBATOR.

Note: 1. Opening the baffle or operating window, or using the bassinet, supplies, or other
devices in incubator mode will affect the air flow mode in the hood and thereby affect
the temperature uniformity, temperature variability, and the correlation between the
displayed air temperature and the temperature of mattress center as well as the skin
temperature. Changes to the ambient air flow speed, bassinet inclining angle, and
heat-generating devices around the device in warmer mode may all affect the
mattress temperature uniformity and relationship between the displayed temperature
and the skin temperature. If the ambient air flow is greater than 0.3 m/s, heat balance
on the infant may be affected due to quick heat dissipation.
2. Measurement accuracy items marked by ※ for the pulse oximetry monitor are
applicable when the incubator is connected to the specified sensors.

SECTION 3
FUNCTION
3.1 OVERALL
When the device functions as an infant incubator, it provides a temperature control (Air
Control mode and Skin Control mode) system, humidity control system, oxygen concentration
control system, weighing system and Multi-parameter monitoring.
Heat output control in Air Mode: It will control the heater’s output automatically
according to the Air temperature sensor; see instruction in section 5;
Heat output control in Baby Mode: It will control the heater’s output automatically
according to the Skin temperature sensor, see instruction in section 5.
Oxygen input control:Auto control the valve according to the oxygen concentration in the
incubator which detected by the oxygen concentration sensor. Please refer the section 6 to see
the details.
Reservoir humidifying output control:Auto control the humidifier according to the
humidity in the incubator which detected by the humidity sensor. Please refer the section 7 to
see the details.
Weighing system control: The device displays the weight detected by the infant scale
sensor in the bassinet on the screen and allows you to perform operations such as calibration
and resetting. For operation details, see Chapter 8.
Multi-parameter monitoring control: The device displays the detected infant
physiological sign values such as ECG, RESP, SpO2, NIBP, CO2, and WAKE values on the
screen and allows you to set the alarm limit and measurement mode. For operation details,
see Chapter 9 to Chapter 14.

3.2 TEMPERATURE CONTROL PRINCIPLE


The control of temperature, humidity and oxygen concentration inside hood is achieved by
means of the forced air circulation system as shown in Figure 3.1.
When the oxygen control function is off, the outside air is filtered, it will flow through the
heater which can heat the air, and then the air enters into the hood through the inlet port under
the drive of fan motor, after then, it will be cycled back to the fan motor through the inlet port to
form the heat air cycle flow. And this heat air flow will come to the top of water tank and enter
into the hood with the vapor above the water.
When turning on the oxygen control function, oxygen flow through the oxygen input
connector, then passes the electromagnetism valve and enters into the air-oxygen separating
device through the oxygen input connector, after then, it enters into the heat air cycle flow
under the drive of the fan motor to supply the oxygen in the incubator.

Note: 1. When a system fault alarm occurs, stop using the device immediately and ask
authorized and qualified maintenance personnel for repair.
2. Except for the power failure alarm, all other alarms can be muted for 4 minutes
(115s for oxygen concentration alarms and 120s for Multi-parameter monitoring
alarms) by pressing the Mute/Reset button on the panel. When the muting time ends,
the alarm is triggered again if the fault persists. If multiple alarms are triggered at
the same time, the total number of alarms are displayed in the alarm message area.
For example, "Air temperature sensor fault alarms (2)" indicates that two alarms are
not processed yet. The device prompts those with higher priorities. Click Alarm
Message in the general information area to view all alarms triggered. When there
are multiple alarms, the sound pause time is the current highest priority alarm
pause time.
3. The power failure alarm lasts for at least 10 minutes. If the power supply
recovers before the alarm message, the device automatically recovers to the
alarm setting before power failure. After the SUPPLY MAINS has been interrupted
when the “on-off” switch remains in the “on” position and is restored after 30
s,you can use the device as normal as before.
4. The alarm system saves alarm logs automatically. The saved alarm logs remain
unchanged after power failure.
5. When a function is enabled, its alarm function is also enabled.
6. Messages of alarms with the same priority are listed by their No. in the alarm
list.
7. In the state of sound pause, the alarm sound of the equipment shall be sounded
again after any alarm is triggered.
8. The alarm volume can be adjusted. If the operator changes the alarm volume
when an alarm is triggered, the alarm volume changes accordingly.
9. The ALARM SYSTEM discards the oldest date when the log becomes full.

Warning: 1. When you use the incubator in any independent area, potential hazards
may occur if different alarm presets are used.
2. If the presets exceed the alarm upper or lower limit, the alarm system
fails.

the incubator limits the infant's skin temperature measured by the skin temperature sensor 1 to
the value preset by the operator.
Two skin temperature sensors are available: skin temperature sensor 1 and skin temperature
sensor 2. The skin temperature sensor 1 serves as a control temperature sensor; that is, the
temperature controller controls the infant skin temperature based on the value measured by the
skin temperature sensor 1. The skin temperature sensor 2 is clinically used to observe the infant
skin temperature (the method of checking values displayed on the skin temperature sensor 2 is
described in Section 4.3). In Skin Control mode, the skin temperature sensor 1 must closely
contact the infant's skin. The controller inside the incubator compares the temperature measured
by the skin temperature sensor 1 with the preset value, and transmits control signals to control
the heating ratio of the heater based on the comparison result to make the measured skin
temperature close to the preset temperature. In Skin Control mode, the isolated temperature
sensor in the incubator still controls the maximum air temperature in the incubator as a backup. In
case of overtemperature, the heat protection device functions and the heater is disabled.
To ensure an appropriate temperature for infant skin temperature control, the incubator
implements the following protection function: When the temperature measured by a skin
temperature sensor is always at least 2°C lower than the preset temperature, the incubator
increases the air temperature by 1°C per hour, so as to slowly increase the infant's skin
temperature. This prevents injuries caused by rapid temperature increase. If the measured skin
temperature stays at least 2°C lower than the preset temperature for one hour, the device
generates a "Skin temperature sensor 1 position error" alarm. In this case, the incubator slowly
increases the air temperature until the skin temperature stays 4°C lower than the preset
temperature. For example, if the preset temperature is 36.5°C in Skin Control mode, the
temperature in the incubator remains at 32.5°C.
To prevent unexpected air temperature decreases due to infant fever or other reasons, the
incubator implements the following function: If the infant's skin temperature exceeds the preset
value by less than 0.5°C, the air temperature will not decrease to more than 5°C lower than the
skin temperature. If the skin temperature exceeds the preset value by more than 0.5°C, the air
temperature will not decrease to less than 25°C. For example, if the preset skin temperature is
36°C and the skin temperature increases to 36.3°C, the air temperature will not decrease to
below 31.3°C. If the skin temperature increases to 36.7°C, which is over 0.5°C higher than the
preset value, the air temperature will not decrease to less than 25°C.

OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

Connection between the skin temperature sensor probe and infant's skin:
In Skin Control mode, ensure reliable contact between the skin temperature sensor probe

and the infant's skin. You can use medical adhesive plaster or similar objects to fasten the probe

firmly. Before placing the skin temperature sensor probe on the infant's skin, use ethanol or warm

water to remove grease and dirt from the skin and dry the skin. If the infant lies facing upward,

place the probe between the cartilago xiphoidea and navel and avoid the liver. If the infant lies

facing downward, place the probe on the back of the infant, and if possible, on the kidney. If the

infant lies sideward, follow the attending doctor's advice.


Note: 1. The skin temperature sensor must be cleaned and sterilized before use.
2. Do not place the skin temperature sensor probe beneath the infant.
3. Do not use the skin temperature sensor probe as a rectal thermometer.

Warning
1. Keep reliable contact between the probe of the skin temperature sensor 1 and the
infant. If the probe is disconnected from the infant, the temperature measured by the
sensor is not the infant's skin temperature but the air temperature or mattress
temperature. This may cause excessive heating or cooling, or even burns or death to
the infant.
2. Do not cover the probe of a skin temperature sensor with an object like blanket or
diaper. Otherwise, the accuracy of temperature measurement may be affected.
3. The temperature measured by the skin temperature sensor is the skin temperature of
the infant rather than the actual body temperature. Therefore, regularly measure the
infant's body temperature to check whether the infant has a fever or hypothermia.

Select the Skin Control mode and set the related value.

As described in step E in Section 4.4.2, connect the skin temperature sensor 1 to the
socket for the sensor. If you want to increase or decrease the preset temperature, click to
unlock the keyboard. Click in the skin temperature area on the home screen. The controller
enters the second UI (A) Temperature Setup, as shown in Figure 5.2. Select the Skin Control
mode, and then click or to set the temperature to the expected value. To select
the >37°C mode, set the skin temperature to 37°C, and click in the >37°C field. If
the >37°C indicator is on, the device enters the >37°C mode. Then, click in the Setup
field to set the control temperature to a value above 37°C. Set an appropriate value, click the set
value to confirm the new value, and then click to return the home screen. If you do not
click any button in 30s, the controller automatically returns to the home screen. Once the skin
temperature becomes stable, the skin temperature measured by the skin temperature sensor is
controlled at the preset value with a tolerance of ±0.2°C. The temperature measured by the skin

HUMIDITY CONTROL SYSTEM
7.1 OVERVIEW
This section provides operation and checkout procedures and operation manual about
humidity control system.

7.2 FUNCTIONS
The humidity display range of the incubator is from 0%RH to 100%RH,with a setting range of
30% to 95%RH(Note: If environmental humidity is relatively high,it may not be able to achieve
relatively low humidity control). The deviation alarm is pre-set to ± 15% RH, which means in
humidity steady condition, the humidity deviation alarm will occur if the humidity value is above or
below the selected humidity setting range ± 15% RH.
Vapour produced when the water in the humidity chamber flow by the heat pipe located on
the bottom of the chamber, enters into the hood by vapour outlet port. The humidity control
system enables the humidity increase inside the chamber. The evaporating speed is decided by
the power of the heater. There’s a humidity sensor inside the sensor modular of the hood which
adjusts the output power of the evaporator. Please see the alarm introduction of section 3.4. If the
alarms about humidity are active, press silence key, terminate the alarm sound for 4mins, if the
power of the temperature heater is not cut off, the power of the humidity heater will automatic cut
off when the high humidity deviation alarm is activated.

7.3 CALIBRATION
Please calibrate the incubator when the incubator is used for the first time or reuse it after
cleaning and installation. Before calibrating the device, please refer to section 7.4 to see how to
set humidity of the incubator.
A. Fulfill the humidity chamber to the highest level with water, then place a calibrated
humidity analyzer in the middle of the bassinet.
B. Preheating the incubator to 36℃, set the humidity value in 50%RH.
C. After temperature and humidity reach stable state, the readings on both the hygrometer
and the humidity display indicator should display 50%RH±5%RH.
D. Check the humidity deviation alarm
On humidity set mode, set the value at 40%RH, when the humidity reaches the setting value,
increase the humidity display value, keep the display value higher than set value +15%RH, the
device should give a medium priority alarm, the “Alarm Humidity Deviation” information will
replace the curve indication on the screen, the alarm character should be consistent with
description of section 3.4. On humidity set mode, set the value at 40%RH, when the humidity

reaches the setting value, decrease the humidity display value, keep the display value lower than
set value -15%RH, the device should give a medium priority alarm, the “Alarm Humidity
Deviation” information will replace the curve indication on the screen, the alarm character should
be consistent with description of section 3.4. Press silence key can terminate the alarm sound,
but the alarm light still flashes until the display value is within ±15%RH. If 4mins later, the alarm
condition is still not canceled, alarm sound will start again.
NOTE:If the displayed value won’t rise anymore or can’t decline to the set value in the
deviation rate more than ±15%, the alarm won’t occur. When checking the
low-deviation alarm, please make sure that the environmental humidity is lower
than the humidity in the hood so that the alarm can be activated.

7.4 OPERATIONS

WARNING:In any temperature, the relatively high humidity in the incubator will
decrease the heat evaporating from the patient and result in increasing
the patient’s temperature. This is especially clear in the neonate.
Therefore, temperature control mode, temperature value and humidity
value should be certified by the chief doctor. Monitor the patient’s recta
and armpit temperature according to the doctor’s instruction.

signal will be filtered again, which damages the monitoring performance of
infants with pacemakers.
12. Distortion of waveforms may occur due to interference of ungrounded
devices and interference of ESU near infants.
13. When the device is connected with high-frequency surgical devices, to
prevent electric leakage from burning infants, prevent the sensors and cables of
the device from contacting with the high-frequency surgical devices.
14. Transient effect of grid power isolation devices similar to real ECG waveform
may inhibit alarm of the heart rate.
15. For infants with pacemakers, the heart rate meter can count pacemaker
pulses in case of cardiac arrest or arrhythmia. Do not rely solely on the heart
rate meter alarm. Closely monitor infants with pacemakers. Refer to this manual
for the ability of this device to suppress pacing pulses.

Note: 1. Excessive hair or wet skin may hinder the attachment of electrodes. Remove
excessive hair and dry the skin before attaching electrodes.
2. After defibrillation, if the correct electrode is used according to the
manufacturer's instructions, the screen display will be restored within 5 seconds.
3. If the ECC electrode is correctly placed but the ECG waveform is still inaccurate,
replace the leads.
4. Some electrodes may have large potential shift due to polarization.
5. This device can only suppress pacing pulses without overshoot.

9.3 FUNCTIONS
The device displays the waveform and its value on the screen by measuring, monitoring,
and calculating the bioelectric signals of the heart. It can perform ECG monitoring for infants
through 3-lead and 5-lead ECG sensor cables.

9.4 OPERATIONS
9.4.1 Preparations
Proper attachment of electrodes is necessary for high-quality ECG monitoring. Good contact
between electrodes and skin can minimize motion artifacts and signal interference. Therefore,
before attaching the electrodes, prepare the infant's skin as follows:
1. Remove excessive hair at the electrode attachment position.
2. Clean the skin with an alcohol-immersed cotton piece and gently dry the skin at the
attachment position.
3. Connect the electrode lead to the infant cable.
4. Insert the infant cable into the ECG interface of the monitor.
Note: Pay attention to impedance difference when using the same type of electrode pads
on the same infant.

Placement position of the 5-lead electrode


Electrodes must be placed for operational convenience. For example, in thoracotomy, the
chest electrode can be placed on the side or back of the chest. When an electrotome device is
used, to reduce the influence of artifacts on ECG waveforms, electrodes can be placed on the left
and right shoulders, close to the left and right sides of abdomen, while chest leads can be placed
on the left side in the middle of chest. Do not place electrodes on the upper arm of infants;
otherwise, ECG waveforms are very small.
Warming: 1. When electrosurgical units (ESUs) are used, place negative plates of ESUs
correctly to avoid burn infants. Do not entangle ESU cables with ECG cables.
2. When ESUs are used, never place electrode near negative plates of ESUs;
otherwise, the ECG signal is greatly interfered.

2. Diagnostic: used when diagnosis quality is required. In this mode, non-filtered
ECG waveforms are displayed, that is, you can view changes to the waveforms.
3. Surgery: used when the signal is interfered by high frequency or low frequency.
High-frequency interference usually causes sharp pulses with high amplitude, which
leads to irregular ECG signals. Low-frequency interference usually leads to baseline
drift or coarsening. In the operating room, artifacts and interference from ESUs are
reduced in Surgery mode. Under the condition of normal measurement, this mode
may suppress QRS complex and interfere ECG analysis.
Note: When the interference is small, we recommend that you select the Surgery mode as
far as possible for monitoring.

FIGURE 10.1
Warning: 1. When you insert or remove the gas tube, hold its plug instead of the gas tube
itself.
2. Do not install the cuff on limbs with intravenous infusion or catheter insertion
Inflating the cuff will slow down or block infusion, which may cause damage to
surrounding tissues.
3. Do not perform any NIBP measurement on infants with sickle cell diseases or
any skin damage or expected damage.
4. For infants with severe coagulation disorder, check the necessity of automatic
blood pressure measurement according to clinical evaluation, because
hematoma may occur at the friction between limbs and the cuff.
5. Do not place the cuff on the wound, which may cause further injury.
6. Too frequent measurement hurts infants because of blood interference.
7. Do not on the application of the CUFF and its pressurization on the arm on the
side of a mastectomy or lymph node clearance.
8. Do not place the blood pressure cuff on limbs for intravenous infusion,
treatment or arteriovenous short circuit; otherwise, short-term interference of
blood flow may occur, causing harm to infants.
9. The pressurization of cuff may cause the function of monitoring devices
connected to the same limb to temporarily fail.
10. The gas tube connecting the cuff and the monitor must be free of occlusion
and not tangled Otherwise, it may cause harm to the infant.
11. Do not inflate the airbag for a long time; otherwise, it may cause discoloration
or even ischemia at the distal end of the limb.
12. If liquid splashes on the device or its accessories, especially when liquid
enters pipes or the device, contact the maintenance department of the hospital.

10-1
OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

13. Calibrate the NIBP module once every two years (or according to the
maintenance regulations of your hospital). Check the module performance.
14. This device is applicable to scenarios where ESUs are used.
15. The device must be used under specified environmental conditions;
otherwise, it may not meet the technical parameters and specifications claimed
in this manual, and may lead to unpredictable consequences.

Note: 1. The measurement site, infant's location, movement, and state all affect the blood
pressure reading. If you doubt the accuracy of the measurement results, check the
infant's vital signs in other ways, and then check whether the device functions and
accessories are intact.
2. Check the patient category before measurement.
3. During measurement, check the infant limbs used for measurement to avoid
long-term damage to the infant's blood circulation caused by the operation of the
device.
4. Automatic measurement value is affected by the extreme value of temperature,
humidity, and altitude.

10.3 FUNCTIONS
This device uses oscillation method to measure the non-invasive blood oxygen. This
measurement method is applicable for newborns, and the vibration amplitude of cuff pressure is
measured by the oscillation method. The cuff pressure is the average pressure when the
amplitude is the maximum. After the average pressure is measured, the systolic pressure and
diastolic pressure can be calculated based on the algorithm.
According to IEC 80601-2-30, NIBP measurement can be applied during electrosurgery and
defibrillator discharge.
When NIBP measurement is performed, certain pressure is exerted on the measuring part of
the infant by inflating the cuff. Doctors must judge whether the infant is suitable for NIBP
measurement based on the infant's situation.
The blood pressure measured by this device is equivalent to that measured by auscultation,
and its error meets the requirements of IEC 80601-2-30.

10.4 OPERATIONS
10.4.1 Preparations
1. Open the device and connect the blood pressure cuff correctly.
2. Choose a cuff of the right size and ensure that the airbag is not folded or distorted.
Note: Select an appropriate cuff according to the infant's arm circumference. Inappropriate
cuff selection or distorted airbag leads to inaccurate measurement results. The cuff
width must be 50% of the limb circumference of newborns.

10-2
OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

3. Wrap the cuff around the infant's limb at a position at the same level of the infant's heart.
4. Place the Φ mark of the cuff at the artery position. Do not wind the cuff too tightly;
otherwise, it may cause limb discoloration or even ischemia. The edge of the cuff must be within
the mark; otherwise, replace the cuff.
5. Connect the cuff to the gas tube, avoid squeezing the gas tube, and ensure that the gas
tube is smooth and free from entanglement.
6. PATIENT position in NORMAL USE:legs uncrossed, back and arm supported,and middle
of the CUFF at level of the right artium of the heart.

10.4.2 Measurement Limits


In the oscillation method, the regular pulse wave generated by arterial pressure is measured.
When this method is not applicable for the infant or the waveform cannot be detected, the
measured value is unreliable and the pressure measuring time also increases. NIBP
measurement is not applicable for the following circumstances:
 Ultimate heart rate: blood pressure cannot be measured when the heart rate is lower than 40
bpm and higher than 240 bpm.
 Heart-lung machine: If the infant is using a heart-lung machine, the measurement cannot be
performed.
 Infant movement: if the infant has excessive or continuous movement, tremor or spasm, the
measurement cannot be performed, the measurement result is unreliable, and the
measurement time is prolonged.
 Infants with arrhythmia.

OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

11.5 OPERATIONS
If the SpO2 monitoring system is not used correctly, the measurement is inaccurate. The
compression at the placement site may lead to necrosis of the infant's tissue and the surface
adhesive of the SpO2 sensor may lead to injury or burn of the infant. Therefore, do install the
SpO2 sensor correctly.
Warning: 1. Each time you use the SpO2 monitoring system, calibrate and set the system.
2. The SpO2 sensor and its extension cable must be used only for the SpO2
monitoring system. Before use, the medical staff must check compatibility
among the SpO2 monitoring device, SpO2 sensor, and the sensor extension cable;
otherwise, the device may not be used, delaying therapy. The operator's manual
of the SpO2 sensor provides information about compatibility between the SpO2
sensor and SpO2 monitoring system and specific additional information,
including product performances in case of infant movement or low perfusion
during monitoring.
3. Do not use information displayed by the SpO2 monitoring system as the only
basis for clinical diagnosis. The information displayed by the SpO2 monitoring
system must be used as auxiliary information and must be used together with
clinical conditions and symptoms as well as diagnosis conclusions of doctors.
4. Long-time use of the SpO2 sensor results in measurement inaccuracy. The
compression at the placement site may lead to necrosis of the infant's tissue and
the surface adhesive of the SpO2 sensor may lead to injury or burn of the infant.
Change the placement site at least every four hours.
5. Arrange the infant extension cable and sensor to avoid winding the infant.
6. Do not place accessories of the SpO2 monitoring system in any position from
which the accessories may fall onto the infant.
7. Do not use the SpO2 monitoring system unless it has been calibrated and set
properly.
8. Do not use the SpO2 monitoring system in an MRI environment.
9. Use the SpO2 monitoring system in a quiet and comfortable environment for
higher SpO2 and PR measurement accuracy.
10. In case of damage or suspected fault, do not use the SpO2 monitoring
system.
11. Follow the instructions below to avoid electric shock:
 Do not place the system near a surface with liquid leakage.
 Do not immerse or place the SpO2 monitoring system in a liquid directly.
 Do not sterilize the SpO2 monitoring system.
 Clean the SpO2 monitoring system according to methods in this manual.
 Do not clean the SpO2 monitoring system when the vital signs of the
infant are monitored.
11-4
OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

12. When multiple devices are applied to the same infant, leakage current may
cause danger due to superposition. Before multiple devices are connected, ask
qualified professionals to test the leakage current to ensure that the leakage
current is within the allowance range and causes no harm to the infant, operator,
and ambient environment. If you still have any doubt, consult the manufacturer
for the correct methods.
13. If you have any doubt about the measured value, monitor the vital signs of
the infant in other ways and then check whether the SpO2 monitoring system is
normal.
14. Causes for SpO2 reading inaccuracy include:
 COHb and MetHb are high.
When the COHb value exceeds the allowance range, the SpO2 value is high.
The SpO2 increase depends on the COHb content.
Note: When the SpO2 value is normal, the COHb value may still be high. In
case of suspecting higher COHb, collect the infant blood for lab analysis
(using the carbon oxygen oximeter).
When the MetHb value is high, the SpO2 value may decrease by about 10% to
15% based on the MetHb value. When the MetHb value is high, the SpO2
reading tends to be within the low to medium 80s range. In case of
suspecting higher MetHb, collect the infant blood for lab analysis (using the
carbon oxygen oximeter).
 Intravascular stain (such as indocyanine green or methylene blue)
 Pigments and substances for external use (such as nail polish, nail
protection oil, and glitter)
 Bilirubin increase
 Severe anemia
 Low arterial perfusion
 Motion artifact
15. Interfering substances: Dyes that can change blood pigmentation or any
substances containing dyes may cause incorrect readings.
16. The SpO2 value is calibrated by COHb and MetHb values in normal and
healthy adult volunteers.
17. Do not alter or dismantle the SpO2 monitoring system and its accessories;
otherwise, the operator is injured or the device is damaged. Return the device for
factory repair when necessary.
18. Misapplication of a PULSE OXIMETER PROBE with excessive pressure for
prolonged periods can induce pressure injury.

OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

3. Do not place medical appliances and devices that may interfere with the test of
the SpO2 monitoring system around the incubator; otherwise, the system may fail.
4. If the SpO2 monitoring system shows that the infant has hypoxemia, the medical
staff must collect the infant blood for confirmation.
5. In case of frequent low perfusion prompt, change to a site with better perfusion
for monitoring. During this period, check and evaluate the infant conditions and
check the oxygenation status in other ways.
6. If the SpO2 monitoring system is used during phototherapy, the radiation source
may interfere with the SpO2 sensor, so it can only be used for a short time under
clinical supervision.
7. Check whether the monitoring alarm limit settings are suitable for the infant. Set
the alarm limits every time you use the SpO2 monitoring system.
8. Data change during measurement may be affected by the sampling technology or
infant physiological conditions. Any inconsistency with the infant clinical status
must be tested again and/or verified through other tests. The medical staff must
fully understand the infant conditions before sending the blood samples for
laboratory test and making decisions accordingly.
9. Do not immerse the SpO2 monitoring system into any cleaning solvent or sterilize
the system through high pressure, radiation, steam, gas, ethylene oxide, or other
methods; otherwise, the system is severely damaged.
10. Dispose the SpO2 monitoring system and its accessories according to local
laws.
11. To reduce electromagnetic interference, keep RF electrical devices away from
the SpO2 monitoring system.
12. Do not use the function tester to test the accuracy of the SpO2 monitoring
system.
13. Do not enable the sensor to contact with high intensity light sources (for
example, fluorescent lamps and infrared rays); otherwise, the SpO2 monitoring
system cannot read the vital signs of the infant.
14. The monitoring performance of the SpO2 sensor is affected in maximum
sensitivity mode. In this mode, the SpO2 sensor is affected by the ambient noise (for
example, ambient light, vibration, and too high air flow speed) and the readings of
the infant vital signs are incorrect.
15. Do not arrange the infant cable into a close coil or wind it around the incubator;
otherwise, the infant cable is damaged.
16. The operator's manual of the Masimo SpO2 sensor provides information about
compatibility between the SpO2 sensor and SpO2 monitoring system and specific
additional information, including product performances in case of infant movement
or low perfusion during monitoring.

SpO2 sensor away from radiation sources. If the sensor is exposed to a radiation
source, the measured value is inaccurate or no measured value is displayed.
18. The displayed SpO2 waveform has been normalized.
19. The Masimo SpO2 module has passed the non-motion accuracy test with human
blood samples of 70% to 100% SpO2 in healthy adult volunteers and by comparing
the result with those of the laboratory combined photoelectric oximeter and
monitoring devices. This difference is equivalent to adding or subtracting a
standard deviation. Adding or subtracting a standard deviation contains 68% of the
samples.
20. The Masimo SpO2 module has passed the motion accuracy test with human
blood samples with low SpO2 induced by friction or minor movement in healthy
adult volunteers at a frequency of 2-4 Hz. No repetitive movement is made with 1-2
cm amplitude and 1-5 Hz. The result is compared with those of the laboratory
combined photoelectric oximeter and monitoring devices when the low SpO2 is
induced at 2-3 cm amplitude (SpO2 range: 70% to 100%). One difference is
equivalent to adding or subtracting a standard deviation. Adding or subtracting a
standard deviation contains 68% of the samples.

SECTION 12
RESP MONITORING SYSTEM
12.1 OVERVIEW
This chapter describes how to calibrate and operate the RESP monitoring system.

12.2 FUNCTIONS
This device uses the thoracic electrical bioimpedance (TEB) method for measurement.
When the infant breathes, the thoracic activity causes changes to the thoracic impedance
between two ECG electrodes. By measuring the impedance change, a respiratory wave is
displayed on the display screen, and the respiratory rate (RR) is calculated according to the
waveform period.

12.3 OPERATIONS
Warning: 1. When the infant's respiration is monitored, do not use ESU-type ECG cables.
2. If the RR detection level is set incorrectly in manual calculation mode, the
device may not be able to detect the apnea state. If the detection level is too low,
the device easily detects the cardiac activity and mistakes cardiac activity for
respiration activity when respiration is suspended.
3. Respiration measurement cannot identify the cause of apnea, and the device
can only generate an alarm within a preset time after the last respiration, if the
next respiration is not detected. Therefore, the device can't be used for clinical
diagnosis.
4. When the device works in accordance with the IEC60601-1-2 standard
(radiation resistance: 3 V/m), the field strength exceeding 1 V/m may lead to
incorrect measurement results in various frequency ranges. Therefore, we
recommend that you do not use devices with any electrical radiation device near
the respiration detection device.
12.3.1 Preparations
1. Remove excessive hair at the electrode attachment position.
2. Clean the skin with an alcohol-immersed cotton piece and gently dry the skin at the
attachment position.
3. Connect the electrode lead to the infant cable.
4. Insert the infant cable into the ECG interface according to the sections about ECG.
Respiration measurement is performed based on the standard ECG cable and electrode
placement method, and respiration signal is measured by two ECG electrodes. If the ECG
electrodes are placed at the standard sites, the electrodes RA and LA of the lead I or the
electrodes RA and LL of the lead II collect the respiration.
Note: To obtain the optimal respiration wave, place the electrodes RA and LA horizontally
when using the lead I to measure the respiration. Place the electrodes RA and LL
diagonally when using the lead II to measure the respiration.

12-1
OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

The following figure shows how to place the electrodes for respiration measurement:

Lead I Lead II

12.3.2 Simultaneous Measurement of ECG and Respiration


To measure ECG and respiration simultaneously, you need to adjust the sites of two
electrodes for respiration measurement. Change to ECG electrode position may result in change
to ECG waveforms or even affect the arrhythmia analysis.
12.3.3 Cardiac Activity Overlapping
The influence of cardiac activity on respiration waveform is called cardiac activity overlapping.
Overlapping happens when respiration electrodes collect impedance changes caused by
rhythmic blood flow. Proper placement of respiration electrodes can reduce this effect. It is
necessary to avoid placing the liver region and ventricle on the connecting line of respiration
electrodes, so as to avoid the artifacts caused by the cardiac or pulsating blood flow, which is
especially important for newborns.
12.3.4 Abdominal Respiration
Some infants breathe through the abdomen due to limited chest movement. In this case,
place the left leg electrode at the position where the left abdomen expands most, so as to obtain
the optimal respiration waveform.
12.3.5 Thoracic Expansion
In clinical practice, some infants (especially newborns) have lateral thoracic expansion,
causing negative internal thoracic pressure. In this case, it is best to place two respiration
electrodes the right axillary midline and the left thoracic region with the strongest respiration
movement, so as to obtain the optimal respiration waveform.
Note: Do not use this device for infants with excessive movement; otherwise, an alarm
may be generated by mistake.
12.3.6 RESP Setup
When the keyboard is unlocked, click in the CO2 / RESP area on the home screen and then
select RESP. The controller enters the second UI (G) RESP Setup, as shown in Figure 12.1.

CO2 MONITORING SYSTEM
13.1 OVERVIEW
This chapter describes how to calibrate and operate the CO2 monitoring system.

13.2 CONNECTION OF THE CO2 SENSOR


As shown in Figure 13.1, insert the CO2 sensor into the CO2 socket on the multi-parameter
monitor.

CO2 socket

FIGURE 13.1
Warning: 1. Do not use this device in an environment with flammable anesthetic gas.
2. This device can be used only by well-trained professionals who are familiar
with the operation and precautions of this device.
3. Check the airway connector before use. Replace the connector in case of any
damage.
Note:EtCO2 Change: EtCO2 will typically decrease below nominal value (EtCO2nom) when
reapiration rate (RR) exceeds the RR threshold (RRth) according to the formulas:
EtCO2 = EtCO2nom * (125/RR) for RRth > 125. (Measured at I/E ratio 1:1 using breath
simulator according to EN ISO 80601-2-55)

13.3 FUNCTIONS
This device uses the infrared analysis method to measure CO2 concentration in infant's
respiration airway in the principle is that CO2 molecule can absorb infrared ray energy with
specific wavelength (4.2 μm), and the absorbed energy is related to the CO2 concentration. When
the infrared ray emitted by an infrared light source penetrates gas sample containing CO2, some
energy is absorbed by CO2 in the gas. A photodetector is used on the other side of the infrared
light source to measure the remaining infrared ray energy. The measurement of CO2 is to
determine the CO2 concentration at this time according to the absorbed light intensity, and
calculate the respiration rate, inhaled and exhaled CO2 concentration according to the detected
CO2 waveform.

13-1
OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

Both mainstream and sidestream CO2 modules of Masimo can be used. Measured
parameters include:
1. EtCO2: the CO2 value of the expiration tip.
2. FiCO2: the minimum CO2 value during respiration.
3. AWRR: the number of respirations calculated based on the CO2 waveform.

13.4 OPERATIONS
Mainstream measurement method: Directly place the CO2 sensor in the infant's
respiration airway catheter, covert the CO2 concentration in the respiration gas, and then send the
electrical signal to the monitor for analysis and processing to obtain the CO2 value.
Sidestream measurement method: configure an air pump, use a sampling tube to pump
out the infant's exhaled air, and then use the CO2 sensor and module built in the device to
analyze and measure the air.
13.4.1 Connection of the Mainstream CO2 Module (IRMA)
The IRMA mainstream module provides multiple-gas probes that can be connected to the
device to display the real-time and deduced CO2 monitoring data.
When the IRMA module is connected to the infant's respiration circuit, it can monitor
inhaled/exhaled gases during anesthesia, rehabilitation, and respiration care. It is applicable for
infant monitoring in operating rooms, intensive care units (ICUs), wards, and emergency medical
institutions.
It is not the only method for infant monitoring. It must always be used together with other
devices and assist in professionals' judgment for infant's situation. The IRMA probe can be used
only by trained and authorized medical professionals.
Warning: 1. Do not reuse the disposable IRMA airway adapter; otherwise, cross infection
may occur. Recycle and handle the used IRMA airway adapter according to local
regulations on medical waste disposal.
2. Do not use IRMA airway adapters for adults/children on infants; otherwise, a
dead space of 6 mL is formed in the infant's respiration circuit. Do not use IRMA
airway adapters for infants on adults; otherwise, the flow resistance is too large.
3. Mobile and RF communication devices affect the measurement accuracy. Use
the IRMA probe in the electromagnetic environments specified in this manual.
4. Do not place the IRMA airway adapter between the endotracheal tube and
elbow; otherwise, the infant's secretion may block the adapter window and cause
operation error.

13-2
OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

5. To prevent secretions and moisture from accumulating in the window, always


place the IRMA probe vertically with the LED facing upwards.
6. Do not use the IRMA airway adapter with any quantitative spray; otherwise, the
light transmission in the window of the airway adapter is affected.
7. Use the IRMA probe for infant evaluation assistance only. The probe must be
used together with other devices that evaluate vital signs and symptoms.
8. Incorrect probe zeroing results in incorrect gas reading.
9. Replace the airway adapter in case of condensed water droplets.
10. Do not directly contact the IRMA probe with the infant. Use the airway adapter
accessories specified in this manual.

Note: 1. Do not sterilize the IRMA probe or immerse it into any liquid. The IRMA airway
adapter is not a sterile device. Do not autoclave it; otherwise, the device may be
damaged.
2. Do not pull the probe cable.

A. Installation of the IRMA Mainstream Module

1. Insert the IRMA connector into the CO2 connector of the monitor.
2. As shown in the figure below, fix the IRMA probe to the airway adapter and insert the
probe in place.

3. You can use the probe when the green LED indicator is on.

LED indicator
4. Connect the 15-mm male connector of the IRMA airway adapter to the Y-shaped
connector of the respiration circuit.
5. Connect the 15-mm female connector of the IRMA airway adapter to the infant's
endotracheal tube.

13-3
OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

You can also connect a heat and moisture exchanger (HME) between the infant's
endotracheal tube and the IRMA probe. Placing HME before the IRMA probe can protect the
airway adapter from water vapor and secretions without replacing the adapter. Besides, with HME,
you can place the IRMA probe at any position.

6. Always keep the LED lamp upward when placing the IRMA probe unless the probe is
protected by HME.

B. Place the IRMA Probe Correctly

Do not directly contact the IRMA probe with the infant body when connecting the probe to
the infant respiration circuit. Use an insulation material between the IRMA probe and the infant
body when it is necessary to directly contact the probe with the infant body for any reason.
Warning: The IRMA probe is designed not to contact with the infant.

C. Check Before Use

1. Before connecting the IRMA airway adapter to the respiration circuit, check whether the
O2 reading on the monitor is correct (21%) and whether the O2 calibration has been verified.
2. Before connecting the airway adapter to the respiration circuit, always check the gas
reading and waveforms on the monitor.
3. After connecting the IRMA probe to the airway adapter, check the air tightness of the
infant's respiration circuit.
4. The Nasal oxygen catheter for Newborns is connected to the patient.
13.4.2 Connection of the Sidestream CO2 Module (ISA or NomoLine)
The ISA module can be used for monitoring infants with intubation and spontaneous
respiration.
The process of ISA gas analysis is to continuously measure the airflow passing through the
infrared spectrometer and the infrared absorptivity. The core component of the ISA gas analyzer
is the SIGMA spectrometer, which uses a proprietary wide-band infrared light source to transmit
light in gas samples. Before the light reaches the gas sample, the light path is cut off by a narrow
band filter, which only allows the light corresponding to the selected wavelength peak of the
measured gas to pass through. At the other end of the light path, the sensor detects the
unabsorbed light of the gas.
13-4
OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

Warning: 1. Tide the sampling tubes to prevent the risk of winding or strangulating the
infant.
2. Do not reuse the disposable sampling tube. Recycle and handle the used
sampling tube according to local regulations on medical waste disposal.
3. Do not lift ISA by grabbing the sampling tube; otherwise, ISA is disconnected
from the devices and falls onto the infant.
4. Do not use sampling tubes for adults/children on infants; otherwise, the dead
space in the infant's respiration circuit increases. Do not use sampling tubes for
infants on adults; otherwise, the flow resistance is too large.
5. Do not use the ISA sidestream gas analysis module with a quantitative spray
or other spray; otherwise, the bacterial filter may be blocked.
6. Check whether the flow rate of the sample gas is too high for the current
patient category.
7. Do not sterilize the ISA sidestream gas analysis module or immerse it into any
liquid. NomoLine sampling tube and its connector are not sterile devices. Do not
autoclave them; otherwise, they may be damaged.
8. Mobile and RF communication devices affect the measurement accuracy. Use
the ISA sidestream gas analysis module in the electromagnetic environments
specified in this manual.
9. Use the ISA sidestream gas analysis module for infant evaluation assistance
only. The module must be used together with other devices that evaluate vital
signs and symptoms.
10. If the indicator blinks in red at the sampling tube inlet or "NomoLine
occluded" is displayed on the main unit, replace the sampling tube immediately.
11. Do not modify the device without the permission of the manufacturer. If any
modification is made to the device, perform necessary check and test to ensure
its safe running.
12. The ISA sidestream gas analysis module is not designed for MRI
environments. Move the device out of the MRI room during MRI scanning.
13. Do not use the ISA module or device near high-frequency ESUs; otherwise,
interference or measurement inaccuracy may occur.
14. Do not external heat dissipation function of the ISA device.
15. Do not apply any negative pressure, such as by using a syringe, to
NomoLine to remove the condensed water. Too large positive or negative
pressure inside the infant's respiration circuit may affect the sample flow rate.
16. Too large discharge suction pressure may affect the sample flow rate. The
exhausted gas must be re-discharged into the infant's respiration circuit or into
the exhaust system.
17. If the collected gas sample is to supply air for respiration, always use a
bacterial filter on the exhaust side.
18. Do not place the device at any place where the device may fall onto the
infant.

a. Zeroing is required only when gas value deviation or inaccurate accuracy is observed.
b. After the CO2 probe is started and the airway adapter is replaced, wait for 10s until the
probe is pre-warmed and then perform zeroing. During zeroing, the probe LED indicator blinks in
green for about 5s.

OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

2. Sidestream Module Zeroing


The infrared gas analyzer needs to determine the zero reference level of CO2 measurement,
which is called zeroing here.
The ISA sidestream gas analyzer switches the gas sample from the respiration circuit to the
ambient air to automatically perform zeroing. Auto zeroing is performed once every 24 hours. The
ISA CO2 analyzer can complete zeroing in 3s.
The NomoLine ISA CO2 module and ISA Capno module perform zeroing as follows: After
detecting the necessity of zeroing, the module automatically performs zeroing once when the
sampling tube is removed.
Warning: 1. For successful zeroing, the gas analyzer must have ambient air (21% O2 and
0% CO2). Therefore, place the ISA module in a well-ventilated place. Before and
after zeroing, avoid respiration near the ISA sidestream gas analyzer.
2. The automatic calibration/zeroing of an RGM will be suppressed during and for
at least 5min after any of the following situations:
a) if the apnoea alarm is activated;
b) if no breathing activity of the PATIENT is detcted for more than 30s after
breathing phases have been detected.
3. Any suppression of an automatic calibration/zeroing will be limited to no more
than 20 min.

13.7 MEASUREMENT INFLUENCE FACTORS


1. Leakage or internal exhaust of the sampling gas.
2. Mechanical vibration.
3. Circulation press as high as 10 kPa (100 cm H2O).
4. Other interference(e.g. environmental factors).
Interfering gas vapor effect:
Gas or vapor Gas level CO2
N2O 60vol% ---
HAL 4vol% ---
ENF, ISO, SEV 5vol% +8%
DES 15vol% +12%
Xe 80vol% -10%
He 50vol% -6%
Metered dose inhaler propellant Not for use with metered dose inhaler propellants
C2H5OH 0.3vol% ---
C3H7OH 0.5vol% ---
CH3COCH3 1vol% ---
CH4 3vol% ---
CO 1vol% ---
NO 0.02vol% ---
O2 100vol% ---
13-9
OPERATOR'S MANUAL OF INFANT INCUBATOR

Note:1. Negligible interference with N2O/O2 concentrations correctly set.


2. Interference at indicated gas level. For example, 50vol% helium typically
decreases the CO2 readings by 6%. this means that if measuring on a mixture
containing 5.0vol%CO2 and 50vol% helium,the actual measured CO2 concentration
will typically be (1-0.06)*5.0vol%=4.7vol%CO2.

13.8 EXHAUST EMISSION


Warning: When the module is used to measure infants who are using narcotic drugs or

infants who have recently used narcotic drugs, the exhaust outlet on the module

must be connected with the exhaust treatment system to prevent the medical

staff from inhaling narcotic drugs.


The module exhaust outlet must have an exhaust emission tube to emit the sample gas to
the exhaust treatment system.

13.9 COMMON FAULTS


The following table lists some common faults that may occur when the CO2 monitoring
system is used before expiration. If you cannot find the cause of a fault, ask authorized
maintenance personnel to repair the incubator.

2. Do not plug the O2 sensor cable.
3. Do not run the WAKE module under an ambient temperature out of the
specified range.
4. Do not use the WAKE module on legs with wound.
14.3 FUNCTIONS
When the device accurately judges from the respiration rate (RR) that the newborn has slow
respiration (RR is less than or equal to 6bpm and the situation has lasted for a period exceeding
the preset apnea alarm time), the device triggers an alarm in time, automatically activates the
automatic wake-up function, and starts vibration, which produces an effect similar to that of
beating the soles of the feet for the newborn by medical staff, and wakes up the newborn. When
the newborn gets out of the apnea predicament (RR is greater than 6 bpm), the device
automatically stops the wake-up operation.
14.4 OPERATIONS
14.4.1 Preparations
1. Insert the cable plug of the WAKE module to the WAKE socket.
2. Place the WAKE module at the infant's foot sole and tight it with a bandage. Do not tight
the bandage too tight or too loose; otherwise, the use effect is affected (too loose) or the infant
blood circulation is affected (too tight).
3. Install the ECG leads.
