3. Set up the patient monitor to:
• Catheter size: 7 F
• Injectate volume: 10 cc
• Injectate temperature: 0 °C or 24 °C
• Computational constant: 0.542 for 0 °C injectate
or 0.595 for 24 °C injectate
4. In the Home screen of the Product, push the
navigation buttons to highlight
CO
.
5. Push  to show the cardiac output screen.
6. Use the parameter selection procedure to set the
cardiac output parameters for the test. See the
detailed specifications to learn the range of each
parameter.
7. Push the navigation buttons to highlight
START
.
8. Push  to start the test. The simulation stops
automatically.
To stop the simulation, highlight
STOP
and push .
How to Simulate Injectate Failure and Left-to-
Right Shunt Fault
The Cardiac Output function can simulate an injectate
failure or left-to-right shunt fault. To set either of these two
failures:
1. Push  or  to highlight the Wave value.
2. Push  or  until FAULTY INJ or L to R SHUNT
shows in the display.
3. Push the navigation buttons to highlight
START
.
4. Push  to start the test.
How to Simulate Output from a Calibrated Pulse
Signal
The Product sources a waveform that simulates an
injectate temperature of 0 °C or 24 °C with a step of 1.5 °C
for 1 second as a test for a cardiac-output monitor. To
output a calibration pulse:
1. In the Cardiac Output screen, push  or  to
highlight the Wave value.
2. Push  or  until CAL PULSE shows in the display.
3. Push  or  to highlight
START
.
4. Push  to start the test.
