Safety information for the use of HMEs,
bacterial filters, and breathing circuits
Installing a neonatal flow sensor
If a neonatal flow sensor and HME are used in the
patient categories Neo. or Ped. pat., the HME must
be installed between the neonatal flow sensor and
the patient connection.
WARNING
Risk of patient injury
All data transferred via the MEDIBUS interface
are for information only and must not be used
as the sole basis for diagnostic or therapeutic
decisions. The MEDIBUS interface is not in-
tended for use with a distributed alarm system
according to IEC 60601-1-8:2012.
CAUTION
Additional components in the breathing circuit
such as bacterial filters, HME or CO
2 cuvettes
may increase the dead space, compressible vol-
ume, and resistance.
Particular care and monitoring are required when
using additional components.
Before checking the breathing circuit (see instruc-
tions for use, chapter "Getting started"), attach all
necessary additional components up to the pa-
tient connection.
WARNING
Increased resistance
Medication nebulization and active humidifi-
cation may increase the resistance of addi-
tional components.
Check the breathing circuit regularly for signs
of increased resistance and replace additional
components if necessary.
