Instructions for use Babyleo TN500 SW 1.0n 97
Operation
6.12.2 Setting the oxygen supply
Prerequisites:
– The device is in operation.
– The device is connected to an oxygen cylinder or to the central O
2 supply.
– The device is equipped with O
2 (option).
WARNING
Risk due to increased external O2 supply
If O
2 is supplied from an external source (e.g., via the central supply unit, an oxygen
cylinder, or an O
2 hood), the O2 concentration may exceed 65 %. The health of the
patient may be endangered and there is an increased risk of fire in the device.
► Measure and monitor the oxygen concentration in the patient compartment.
► Make sure that the oxygen concentration in the patient compartment is always
below 65 %.
► Always monitor the oxygen concentration in the patient's blood, e.g., using blood
gas analysis and a pulse oxymeter.
► Always monitor the external O
2 supply.
► Be aware that Babyleo TN500 displays no alarms in the case of an external
oxygen supply, e.g., via an O2 hood.
WARNING
Risk of fire if unauthorized electrical devices are used
If the air in the patient compartment is enriched with oxygen, there is an increased
risk of fire if unauthorized electrical devices are used.
► In the patient compartment use only electrical devices that are approved for use
in an oxygen-enriched atmosphere.
CAUTION
Risk to patient due to background noise
The supply of oxygen may cause additional background noise.
► Protect the patient from background noise.
