operation may be compromised.
• During the equipment’s prolonged use in patients with excess secretion or in breathing
system using a heated humidifier, the flow sensor’s condition must be frequently verified.
• The equipment has an independent power supply and its own battery backup system.
• Connect an AC power cord to a three pin socket NBR 14136:2002 (2P+T);
• Maintain the equipment connected to a power source even when it is turned off in order to
maintain the internal batteries permanently charged;
• Completely recharge the batteries after use or after a long stocking period;
• The alarm battery recharge must be promptly attended to. Perform your recharge before
the next use of the equipment, because any power outage can stop the operation.
• If after a long period of time using battery, occurs a LOW BATTERY alarm, provide an
IMMEDIATE connection of the power cord to a power supply, I it is not possible, provide
adequate ventilator support means and DISCONNECT the patient from ventilator.
• The absence of obstruction is extremely important for the correct operation of ventilation
monitoring. Therefore, it must be frequently verified during the patient’s ventilation
realization.
• After usage, the ventilator breathing system components MUST be disinfected before their
next used, whenever the same are reusable.
• All of the equipment’s parts that came into contact with fluids from the patients must
undergo a high-level disinfection process or sterilization when discarded or be discarded
as potentially infected medical waste.
• All parts applied of FlexiMag ventilators are made of nontoxic material, they are exempted
of latex and do not cause irritation or allergy to the patient (biocompatibility).
• The common use accessories, which are not exclusive to FlexiMag, such as: masks,
respiratory circuits, nebulizers, heated humidifiers, HME filters, among others, must
comply with local legal government requirements.
• Do not use the equipment if the problem cannot be solved.
• Have a ventilation manual powered available, to use in the cases of: the battery to be
completely depleted or, there is a lack of gas for the ventilator operation; or general failure
of the ICU ventilator.
• Always use officially approved oxygen cylinders and pressure redactor valves that attend
to local legal government requirements.
• In order for appropriate ventilation, take in account the ventilator breathing system’s dead
