Mortara S12 - Maintenance

GENERAL CARE AND MAINTENANCE
28
Maintenance
The following table shows the recommended maintenance procedures for the Surveyor patient monitor and its
accessories. The Surveyor S12 and S19 patient monitors should be serviced and calibrated once a year by a Mortara
authorized service technician. However, it is good practice to periodically ensure the patient monitor is in proper
working order. Perform these checks at least every 12 months by a qualified biomedical engineer or other trained
service personnel. To accomplish these steps in their entirety and verify the correct operation of the system,
appropriate patient simulators or other equipment may be required.
Functionality
Procedure
Mechanical Integrity
Check for cracks, abrasive edges and other signs of damage.
Power LED
Verify that the green power LED is illuminated when the patient monitor is ON or charging.
Speaker
Power-cycle the Surveyor patient monitor and verify that the power-up speaker test tones are
generated.
Second Speaker
Power-cycle the Surveyor patient monitor and verify that the power-up second speaker test
tones are generated.
ECG / Respiration
 Connect ECG leads to Patient Simulator.
 Verify proper heart rate at 30 and 300 bpm (+/- 2 bpm or +/- 1%).
 Verify 1 mV test pulse (Lead II).
 Verify proper respiration rate at 15 and 120 bpm (+/- 3 bpm).
SpO
2
 Connect to Patient Simulator (select appropriate sensor type).
 Verify proper SpO2 value at 84% and 96% (+/- 2%).
 Verify proper PR value at 30 and 240 bpm (+/- 5%).
CO2
NOTE: Use only certified calibration gas apparatus [See “CO2 Calibration” section below]
that has not reached its expiration date. This cal gas can be applied to the Surveyor patient
monitor in pulses that simulate patient breaths.
1. NOTE: Between calibrations, the ETCO2performance parameters and tolerance can be
verified as needed as well as during preventive maintenance. The calibration gas should
be applied to the Surveyor patient monitor in pulses of 5 seconds on and 5 seconds off, to
simulate patient breaths of 5-6 RR. Continue long enough for the ETCO2 to stabilize in
both inhale and exhale states. The ETCO2 value should read 38 ± 2 mmHg. The FICO2
value should read 0 ± 2 mmHg and a ± 0.05 correction factor for every 100 mmHg
ambient pressure above or below sea level, respectively. Connect an Oridion
Microstream FilterLine single-use capnography sample line to the Surveyor monitor’s
gas inlet port.
2. Connect with a tight fit, the other end of the Oridion sample line to one of the two open
ports on the Cal Gas tubing apparatus.
3. Pulse the calibration gas actuator, holding it depressed for 5 seconds and released for 5
seconds (5-6 RR). This will allow enough time for the ETCO2 to stabilize in both
inhaled and exhaled states.
4. Verify that the EtCO2 value reads the CO2 concentration stated on the canister ± the
accuracy tolerance stated in the product specifications.
5. Verify the FiCO2 value reads 0 ±2 mmHg.
NOTE: Factor a ±0.05 correction for every 100mmHg of ambient barometric pressure above
or below sea level respectively.
NOTE: The monitor should be returned to the manufacturer for periodic servicing of the
CO2 system after 30,000 hours of CO2 use.
