Preventive Maintenance
WARNING:
Only facility-authorized maintenance personnel should perform
preventive maintenance on the Prima™ Procedural Light. Preventive
maintenance performed by unauthorized personnel could result in
personal injury or equipment damage.
WARNING:
If the unit fails any part of the preventive maintenance functional
checks, repair the unit before use on any patient. Failure to do so could
result in personal injury or equipment damage.
The Prima™ Procedural Light requires an effective maintenance program. We
recommend that you perform annual preventive maintenance (PM) and testing
for Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations (JCAHO).
PM and testing not only meet JCAHO requirements but will help ensure a
long, operative life for the Prima™ Procedural Light. PM will minimize
downtime due to excessive wear.
The following PM schedule guides the technician through a normal PM
procedure on the Prima™ Procedural Light. During this PM process, check
each item on the schedule, and make the necessary adjustments.
Follow the PM schedule with the corresponding PM checklist. This checklist is
designed to keep a running maintenance history and subsequent repair costs for
one Prima™ Procedural Light. However, your facility can modify this
checklist or design another to fit your needs. Keeping close records and
maintaining the Prima™ Procedural Light are two effective ways to reduce
downtime and ensure the patient remains comfortable.
