• When filling a humidifier, do not move the stand. Moving or transporting the
stand while refilling may cause the stand and equipment to over balance.
• Do not use conductive patient circuits with the Infant Flow SiPAP Driver.
• Nasal CPAP can cause nasal irritation, septal distortion, skin irritation and
pressure necrosis. Observe the usage guidelines to minimize these
complications.
• This device exhausts O
2
during normal operation. Oxygen vigorously
accelerates combustion. To avoid fire hazard, do not place flammable
materials or sources of heat close to the exhaust.
• Do not use the equipment without the exhaust tube fitted (refer to Figure 2).
• To reduce trip hazard, always ensure cable and tubes are restrained away
from walking areas.
• The Abdominal Respiratory Sensor will not detect all forms of apnea.
Independent monitoring should always be used with this device.
• If the unit is shelf mounted, ensure that the unit is stable and that hoses and
cables are restrained to avoid hazard of toppling.
• This equipment is not suitable for use in the presence of a flammable
anesthetic mixture.
• The NCPAP Pres High flowmeter must be adjusted to zero when not required
for the patient.
• Under extreme conditions (minimum supply pressure and maximum gas
demand, including auxiliary output) output flow rates and delivered pressure
may be reduced.
• Only use the supplied AC cable to connect to the power supply.
• Do not attach the Generator to the patient until the initial set up is complete.
• The
indicates a connection between the transducer interface and the
unit. It does not indicate correct positioning of the Abdominal Respiratory
Sensor.
• Calibration must only be done when the unit is not connected to the patient.
• Ensure the whistle sounds during gas connection. If not, the device may be
faulty and should not be used. Refer to your Service Engineer.
• Verify that the displayed value for delivered FiO
2
corresponds to the value set
on the blender. Refer to Faults and Indications.
• Oxygen vigorously accelerates combustion. To avoid explosion hazard, do
not use any instrument or other equipment that may have been exposed to oil
or grease contamination.
