In the medicine calculation window, operators should firstly select names of the medicines to be
calculated, and then confirm patient weight, and input other known values. Subsequently,
operators move the cursor to the various calculation items in the calculation formulae, press the
knob and rotate it, so as to select the calculation value. After the calculation value is selected,
value of the items to be calculated will be displayed at the corresponding position. Values for each
calculation item have their limits, if the calculated results exceed such limits, the system will
display “---.--”.
Caution
Under this medicine calculation function, other menu items are available for input only
after operators input patient weight and medicine names. The values firstly given in the
system are only a random group of initial values, and operators should not take such
values as calculation standard, instead, should re-input a group of values suitable for
the current patient, based on the comments by doctors.
Caution
Each kind of medicine is subject with fixed units or unit series, and operators must
select proper unit based on comments by doctors. Under the same unit series,
numbering system of the units will be automatically adjusted with the current input
values, and when the input value exceed out of expression of the relevant unit, the
system will display “---”.
Caution
After operators input a certain value, the system will give a clear reminder in the menu,
reminding operators to check correctness of the inputted value; only inputted values are
guaranteed to be correct, the calculated values will be reliable and safe.
Caution
In case of newborns, dropping speed and volume of an infusion drop make no sense.
Caution
The system gives a reminder for each inputted value, asking operators to confirm.
Operators must be serious with every such reminder, as only valid and correct inputs
can get reliable calculation results.
Select medicine type: move the cursor onto “Medicine name”, rotate the knob and select one from
aminophylline, dobutamine, dopamine, epinephrine, heparin, isuprel, lidocaine, nipride,
nitroglycerin, pitocin, Medicine A, Medicine B, Medicine C, Medicine D and Medicine E,

The technical alarm is also referred to as a system error message, indicating the alarm is
caused by a misoperation or system malfunction thereby causing improper operation of a
system function or distortion of monitored results. The alarm message of the technical alarm
will appear in the technical alarm area above the screen.
Strictly speaking, prompt message does not belong to the domain of alarm. It is to display the
information relative to the system conditions themselves, which have nothing to do with the
patient’s vital sign.Prompt message will appear in the prompt message area.
The patient is in a critical condition, endangering the patient’s life, emergent attention
required.
47

Caution
For patient safety, all the leads must be connected with patient body.
Warning
When using ES equipments, users should put ECG electrodes at middle of the ES
earthing plate and ES knives to prevent from burns. Cables of ES equipments can not
be wrapped with ECG cables together.
Positioning of ECG leads is up to operation types, for example, for chest operation, electrodes can
be put on breast sides or back. Inside operation rooms using surgery electric knives, sometimes
artificial discrepancy may affect ECG waveforms; to reduce such artificial discrepancy, users may
put the electrodes at the left and right shoulders, near left and right abdomen, with breast lead at
left to the middle breast. No electrodes should be put on left arm; otherwise the ECG waveforms

Warning
During use of ES equipments, don’t put electrodes near the earthing plate of such
equipments, otherwise ECG signals will be much disturbed.
Users may based on their requirements arrange leads at each channel. Lead names for each
channel are displayed at left to the corresponding waveforms, and users can directly select them
for revision. Users can select proper leads from I, II, III, AVR, AVL, AVF, and V for the channels,
as shown in Fig. 0-5. In case a user selects the same leads, the monitor will automatically adjust to

ECG using 5-lead, the selectable leads include I, II, III, aVR, aVL, aVF and V;
ECG using 3-lead, the selectable leads include I, II and III. (For neonate)
The leads on the ECG waveform should not have the same name, otherwise the
system will automatically change the similar name into another.

2 The 1st-ECG Waveform Gain: used to adjust the amplitude of ECG waveform.
The gain of each calculation channel can be selected, which has such columns as
×0.25, ×0.5, ×1 and ×2 as well as auto mode. Auto mode means that the monitor can
automatically adjust the gain. On the right side of each ECG waveform there is a 1-mv rod
of which height and amplitude are proportional.
Caution
The input signal being too strong, the wave crest may be truncated. At this time users
can manually change the gain column of ECG waveform by reference to the actual
waveform for fear of incompleteness of waveform.
62
There are three filtering modes for option. The unfiltered ECG waveform is shown in
the diagnostic mode; the monitoring mode will possibly lead to the artifact filtering;
the operation mode used in the surgery can reduce the artifact and interference from
the electrosurgery unit. The filtering mode can be used in two channels and displayed
on the upper part of the first ECG waveform.
Warning
Only in the diagnostic mode can the system provide the real signal that has not been
treated. In the filtering modes such as “Monitoring” and “Operation”, the ECG
waveform will abnormally occur to the different extents. At this time the system can
only provide the basic ECG status, and will produce greater influence on the analysis
result of ST Segment. The analysis result of ARR may partially be affected in the
operating mode, so it is suggested that efforts are made to monitor patients in the
diagnostic mode when the interference is small.

information inside
Arrhythmia analysis is used in clinically monitoring the ECG of baby and adult patients, detecting
the HR change and PVB, saving the arrhythmia events and producing alarm messages. Besides, it
can be used to monitor the patients with or without the pacemaker. The qualified personnel can
evaluate the patient’s status (such as HR, PVCS (PVB), frequency, rhythm and abnormal HB)
according to arrhythmia analysis and make a diagnosis and give treatment. In addition to detect
the ECG change, arrhythmia analysis can monitor patients and give a suitable alarm.
The functional default of arrhythmia monitoring in the system is the off state.
Users can start this function as needed.
Arrhythmia monitoring can arouse the doctor’s attention to the patient’s cardiac rhythm and give
an alarm through test and classification of arrhythmia and HB abnormality.
This monitor can perform 13 kinds of arrhythmia analysis.
In arrhythmia analysis, the system will save the latest 60 alarm events (the single-channel ECG
waveform four seconds before and after alarm). The operator can edit the arrhythmia events
through this menu.
In the “ECG Setting” menu, select the “Arrhythmia Analysis” to enter the submenu.

This monitor measures RESP values from the breast impedance values at two electrodes;
impedance change between such electrodes (due to breast activities) will generate a RESP
waveform on the screen.
For RESP monitoring, no additional electrodes are required, but how to install electrode is critical.
For some patients, especially with clinical condition that negative breast internal pressure will be
generated if their breast is horizontal expanded. In that case, users should put the two RESP
electrodes respectively at middle line of the right axilla and left side to the breast, where there are
largest activities during respiration, so as to obtain the best RESP wave.
Caution
RESP monitoring is not applicable for patients with active activities otherwise may
generate wrong alarms.
RESP monitoring checks:
Take patient skin preparation before installation of electrodes;
Install spring clamp or snap for electrodes, and follow the later-introduced method to
install electrodes on patient body;
Turn on power supply for the monitor system.
78
Caution
Install the white and red electrodes in a diagonal line so as to obtain the best RESP wave.
Need keep the liver and heart area out of the line formed by such electrodes, so as to
avoid artificial discrepancy generated from heart cover or pulsatile blood, which is very
important for newborns.

Parameter
BOS (blood oxygen saturation) is measured and determined in the method of pulse oximetry,
which is a method of measuring and determining the oxyhemoglobin saturation continuously and
without any hurt, mainly used to measure and determine how many rays from the light source of
the sensor penetrate the patient’s tissue (such as fingers or ears) and reach another receiver.
As for the wave length measurable by the sensor, generally the red LED is 660nm and the infrared
LED, 940nm. The maximum selectable output power of LED is 4mW.
The number of penetrated rays rests with many factors where most are constant, but one of these
factors means the arterial flow changes through time because it is pulsant. The arterialized blood’s
BOS can be obtained through measurement of absorbed rays during pulsation. A “volume
recording” waveform and PR signal can be given through detection of pulsation.
“SpO2” value and “Volume Recording” waveform can display on the main screen.

Warning
Please don’t place the senor on the limb with arterial duct or vein injection syringe.
Caution
Please don’t place SpO2 detector and cover on the same limb for measurement of blood
pressure, because in the course of measuring blood pressure the vascular obstruction
will affect the BOS reading.

Caution
Caution
Warning
Prior to monitoring, the first inspection should be given to whether the sensor cable is
normal. SpO2 sensor cable being pulled out of the jack, the screen will display the
“Sensor Off” mistaken information, and trigger the sound alarm.
Warning
Where the sensor packing or the sensor has the sign of damage, please don’t use this
SpO2 sensor, but return it to the manufacturer.
Warning
Continuous and overlong monitoring may increase the undesirable dangers that skin
features change, such as extraordinary sensitivity, reddening, blistering or pressure
85
Attention
When the accurate positioning between the test site and the probe fails, it may result in
wrong readings of blood-oxygen saturation, and even stop monitoring because of the
failure of the search for the pulse wave. In this case you should re-position the two.
Excessive movement of measured sites may affect the accuracy of the measurement,
therefore, you should calm the patient or replace sites in order to reduce the impact of
86
Warning
In a long and continuous monitoring process, check the condition of the peripheral
circulation and skin under measuring every 2 hours or so, and if negative conditions
happen, timely change the site under measurement.
In a long and continuous monitoring process, it is advisable to check periodically the
positioning of the probe to avoid inaccurate measurement due to changing in the
positioning from moving or other factors.

take away the rubber bag when applying such methods. Cuff can not be dry washed but machine
washed or hand washed only, and hand wash can extend service life of cuff. Before cleaning, users
should take away the rubber bag and put back after cleaning and cuff drying.
107
To put the rubber bag back into the cuff, users should put the rubber bag near the cuff opening side,
making the rubber pipe aligned with the long opening of the cuff, then vertically roll the rubber
bag and insert it into the long opening, hold on the rubber pipe and cuff, and then shake the whole
cuff until the rubber gag is positioned exactly. Insert the rubber pipe into the cuff, letting it go
through the hole liner and extend out.
Cuffs for one-time use can only be used for one patient. Don’t use the same cuff with different
patients. Don’t take one-time cuffs for disinfection or high-pressure vapor sterilization. However,
users can use soap to clean one-time cuffs for infection control purpose.

16.1 General
The contents of this section are just the descriptions of the ways of measurement by sidestream
and mainstream CO2 modules, which are different from the working mode of CO2 measured in an
anesthetic gas (AG). Please note their differences.
This instrument measures the CO2 pressure of the patient's air circuit, can measure the content of
end-of-respiration CO2 (EtCO2), the content of minimum CO2 intake (Ins CO2), and the airway
respiration rate (AWRR), and display the CO2 pressure waveform.
Monitors using the way of CO2 measurement are divided into sidestream monitors and mainstream
monitors.
In the side-stream measurement mode, the respiratory gases through patient airways are
sampled with a constant sampling flows and analyzed by remote CO2 sensors built in the
measurement system.
In the mainstream measurement mode, CO2 sensors are mounted on an airway joint that is
directly inserted into the respiratory system of a patient.
• CO2 waveform.
• Minimum CO2 intake (Ins CO2): The minimum value measured during respiration.
• Airway Respiration Rate (AWRR): respiration rate per minute derived from CO2 waveform.
Warning
The bumping and shaking of the CO2 module should be avoided whenever possible.

16.9.5 Zeroing
Please zero before monitoring CO2; zeroing is to eliminate the effect of baseline drifting on the
results during measurement, thus ensuring the correctness of measured results.
Usually, the module will zero itself automatically when necessary. The user can zero the module
manually when the user considers it necessary: Select [CO2] in the parameter area, in the [CO2
Settings] menu popping up, select [Zeroing] to zero the CO2 module. During zeroing, make sure
that the patient circuit is exposed to the ambient air (21% oxygen and 0% CO2) for approximately
30 seconds; when the 30s zeroing prompt on the screen ends, it means zeroing is completed.
Related Information
16.10.1 Zeroing
An infrared gas analyzer needs to determine the zero reference level for CO2 measurement. This
zeroing standard is called as “zeroing” here.
Automatic Zeroing
The ISA sidestream gas analyzer execute zeroing automatically by switching the gas sample from
the respiration circuit to the ambient air. To execute automatic zeroing once every 24 hours, the
ISA sidestream gas analyzer takes less than 3 seconds. If the ISA sidestream gas analyzer is
equipped with an oxygen sensor, automatic zeroing also includes the indoor air calibration of the
oxygen sensor.
Manual Zeroing
Select [CO2] in the parameter area, in the [CO2 Settings] menu popping up, select [Zeroing] to
zero the CO2 module. During zeroing, make sure that the patient circuit is exposed to the ambient
air (21% oxygen and 0% CO2) for approximately 30 seconds; when this menu is in a non default
128
Warning
Since successful zeroing requires that the gas analyzer exists in the ambient air (21% oxygen
and 0% CO2), you should make sure that the ISA is placed at a well ventilated position.
Before and after executing the zeroing procedure, avoid breathing in the vicinity of the ISA
sidestream gas analyzer.

18.1 Overview
Anesthetic gas (AG) is used to measure the anesthetic gases and breathing gases for the patients
under anesthesia. This module provides the end-tidal value (et) and inhalation value (in) of the
following gases:
Caution
Only the waveform and value of a single anesthetic agent are displayed at a time.
18.3 AG Display
Select “Module Switch” from “Monitor Setup” in the main menu to set the AG module as “On",
and then return to the main menu to select “AG Interface” from “Work Interface”. See the figure
below:
144
The AG module can display all the measured waveforms and parameters on the screen of the
monitor, including:
z CO2, O2, N2O, and AA waveform;
z AWRR: airway respiration rate;
z MAC: minimum alveolar concentration;
z CO2, O2, N2O, and AA end-tidal (Et) value and inhalation (Fi) value.
“AA” stands for one of such five anesthetic gases as Des, Iso, Enf, Sev, or Hal.
145
The above data of a 40-year-old healthy male patient comes from ISO21647 and is
published by FDA.
In practice, such factors as age and weight may influence the effect of inhalational
anesthetic agent.
Below is the formula to calculate the MAC value in the presence of one or more anesthetic
agents:
“N” stands for the number of all anesthetic agents (including N2O) detected by the AG module;
“EtAgenti” stands for the end-tidal concentration of each inhalational anesthetic agent; and
“AgentVoli” stands for the 1MAC value of each inhalational anesthetic agent.
For example, if the AG module finds that the end-tidal gas for the patient contains 4% DES,
0.5% HAL and 50% N2O, the MAC value will be:
Caution
146
Caution
The end of the airway adapter connected to gas sampling tube should face up, in order
to prevent condensed water drops entering and blocking the gas sampling tube.
The water tank is used to collect the condensed water drops from the sampling airway
and prevent them entering the module. Please pour the water in the water tank when it
reaches a certain amount, or the airway could be blocked.
The water tank contains filtering materials to prevent the bacteria, moisture or
patient’s secretions entering the module. After a long-time use, the dusts or other
external objects will reduce the air permeability of the filtering materials, which could
block the airway if serious. In this case, please replace the water tank. It is better to
replace the water tank every other month.
Warning
The water tank for adults is not applicable to any newborn patient, or it could hurt the
patient.
Make sure all connections are secure and reliable. Any leakage could cause reading
errors since the breathing gas for the patient is mixed with the ambient air.

The total pressure of a mixed gas is measured by the cup pressure sensor in the ISA gas
analyzer.
If you want to convert it into another unit, you can the actual atmospheric pressure sent by
the ISA sidestream analyzer; for example:
CO2 (mmHg) = (CO2) x (atmospheric pressure (kPa) from the ISA) x (750 / 100)。
For example: 5.0 vol% CO2 @ 101.3 kPa 0.05 x 101.3 x 750 / 100 = 38 mmHg
The partial pressure and volume percentage of CO2, N2O, oxygen or an anesthetic gas depend
on the content of water vapor in the measured gas. Oxygen measurement will be calibrated;
at the actual ambient temperature and humidity level, 20.8 vol%, in stead of the actual partial
154
In the pulmonary alveoli of a patient, the water vapor in breathing gases become saturated at
the body temperature.
After breathing gases is collected and sent into the sampling tube, their temperature gets near
to the ambient temperature before they enter into the ISA sidestream gas analyzer. After
Nomoline has removed all the condensed water, water molecules will not enter into the ISA
sidestream gas analyzer. The relative humidity of all the gases collected is approximately
95%.
If you need the CO2 value under BTPS, you can use the following equation:
3.8 = Typical partial pressure [kPa] of water vapor condensed between the patient’s circuit
and the ISA
It is assumed that standard oxygen of indoor air has been used at a humidity level of 0.7 vol%

Warning
155
z The ISA sidestream gas analyzer shall not be used in an inflammable anesthetic
gas.
z You should earnestly neaten the sampling tube in order to reduce the risk of it
wrapping or reining the patient.
z Do not lift the ISA/host equipment by grasping the sampling tube; otherwise it may
break away from the ISA/host equipment, which may result in that the ISA/host
equipment falls onto the patient.
z Do not use a sampling tube configured for a big animal on a small animal;
otherwise the invalid cavity in the patient circuit will increase.
z Do not use a sampling tube configured for a small animal on a big animal;
otherwise it will result in a too big flowing resistance.
z Do not use the ISA sidestream gas analyzer together with a quantitative spraying
agent or spray; otherwise it may result in the clogging of the germ filter.
z Check if the flowing speed of the gas sample is too high for the given patient type.
z Since successful zeroing requires that the gas analyzer exists in the ambient air
(21% oxygen and 0% CO2), you should make sure that the ISA is placed at a well
ventilated position. Before and after executing the zeroing procedure, avoid
breathing in the vicinity of the ISA sidestream gas analyzer.
z The Nomoline sampling tube and its interface are not germ free devices. In order
to prevent the sampling tube from causing damages, please never carry out high
pressure sterilization on any part of the sampling tube.
z Never disinfect the ISA sidestream gas analyzer or soak it into a liquid.
z The ISA gas analyzer can only be used as a piece of auxiliary equipment for patent
156
z If the input interface of the sampling tube starts showing red blinking, or a
Nomoline clogging message is displayed on the host, the sampling tube should be
replaced.
z The ISA gas analyzer is not designed for being used in a MRI environment.
z During MRI scanning, the host equipment must be placed outside the MRI room.
z Do not use the external natural heat dissipation function of the ISA equipment.
z Do not apply a negative pressure (such as using a syringe) onto the Nomoline to
remove condensed water.
z If the positive or negative pressure in the patient circuit is too high, it may affect
the sample’s flowing speed.
z If the discharging or sucking pressure is too high, it may affect the sample’s
flowing speed.
z The discharged gas should be discharged into the patient circuit, or into a
discharging system.
z If the collected gas sample needs to supply air for respiration, a germ filter should
be used at the discharging side all the time.
z When placing the ISA gas analyzer, try not to place it at a position where the
analyzer might fall onto the patient's body.
Warning
z Do not use an IRMA airway adapter configured for big animal on a small animal,

z Do not use an IRMA small airway adapter on a big animal; otherwise it will result
in a too big flowing resistance.
z The IRMA probe is designed for being used by authorized or trained medical
personnel.
z The IRMA probe is not designed shall not be used in an inflammable anesthetic
gas.
z A disposable IRMA airway adapter shall not be used repeatedly. Repeatedly using
a disposable adapter will cause cross infection.
z Only oxygen sensors made by PHASEIN can be used. Oxygen exhausted oxygen
sensors should be disposed according to local battery disposal stipulations.
z Never try to open the oxygen sensor device. The oxygen sensor in the IRMA probe
is a disposable product, containing corrosive electrolytes and lead.
z The IRMA probe is designed only as an auxiliary means for patient evaluation. It
must be used together with other vital sign and symptom evaluation equipment.
158
z In order to prevent secretions and moisture from aggregating at the window and
the oxygen sensor port, always place the IRMA probe at a vertical position and let
the LED face upwards.
z Never use the IRMA airway adapter together with a quantitative spraying agent or
spray; otherwise it may affect the light traveling of the airway adapter window.
z The IRMA oxygen cell and the IRMA airway adapter are not germ free devices.
Never carry out high pressure sterilization on the equipment; otherwise it will
result in equipment damage.
z Even if an IRMA probe has not been used, do not install an oxygen exhausted
oxygen cell on the probe.
z Do not run this equipment beyond the temperature environment designated by this
operating instruction manual.

Warning
Do not use the ISA gas analyzer together with a quantitative spraying agent or
pulverization treatment; otherwise it may result in the clogging of the germ filter.
A discharging system (used for discharging collected gases) or the patient circuit (used for the
back flowing of collected gases).
Warning
Anesthetics: When an anesthetic which is being used or a patient who recently used an
anesthetic is measured, the gas discharging hole on the module must be connected to a
waste gas processing system or the patient circuit (on the anesthesia machine or the
respirator), so as to prevent medical personnel from inhaling the anesthetic.
