Using the BRM3 Brain Monitor
Performing an assessment
Operating the BRM3 Brain Monitor
Comprehensive instructions for operating the BRM3 Brain Monitor, applying a Neonatal Sensor Set and
checking for signal quality are provided in the
Quick Guide and in the BRM Onscreen Help System.
Restoration after AC supply interruption
If there is an AC supply interruption of one hour or less, the BRM3 Brain Monitor can resume the current assessment and record
data into the same data files when AC supply is restored. The resulting data file will have a blank period corresponding to
the AC supply interruption.
If a battery back-up pack is fitted, the BRM3 Brain Monitor will continue to operate in the event of an AC supply interruption
for approximately 30 minutes. Do not use the battery to power the BRM3 Brain Monitor during normal conditions.
If a battery back-up pack is fitted, the BRM3 Brain Monitor must be connected to the AC supply for two hours before the
battery can be relied on. This constraint also applies if the BRM3 Brain Monitor has been switched off and disconnected
from the AC supply for more than two hours, or if the battery is already depleted from a previous AC supply interruption.
To continue the same assessment after an AC supply interruption:
1. When the AC supply is interrupted, turn off the BRM3 Brain Monitor’s power switch (see
Figure 8 on page 16).
2. After the AC supply has been restored, turn on the BRM3 Brain Monitor’s power switch and log in as normal.
3. On the
Main Menu screen, touch Assess Patient.
4. When the message “Unexpected shutdown detected” displays, touch
Yes to restore data from the previous session. The
previous assessment will resume.
If you touch
No on the “Unexpected shutdown detected” dialog box, the previous assessment will be closed and saved.
