The value should be 40 rpm +/- 2 rpm.
Invasive Pressure Performance Test
This test checks the performance of the invasive pressure measurement.
Tools required: Patient simulator.
1 Connect the patient simulator to the pressure connector on the MMS or the measurement server
extension.
2 Set the patient simulator to 0 pressure.
3 Make a zero calibration.
4 Configure the patient simulator as P(static) = 200 mmHg.
5 Wait for the display.
6 The value should be 200 mmHg ± 5 mmHg. If the value is outside these tolerances, calibrate the
MMS or measurement server extension. If the MMS was calibrated with a dedicated reusable
catheter, check the calibration together with this catheter.
SpO

Performance Test
This test checks the performance of the SpO
2
measurement.
Tools required: none
1 Connect an adult SpO
2
transducer to the SpO
2
connector on the MMS.
2 Measure the SpO
2
value on your finger (this assumes that you are healthy).
3 The value should be between 95% and 100%.
Cardiac Output Performance Test
These tests check the performance of the cardiac output measurement.
1 Connect the patient simulator to the C.O. module using the patient cable.
2 Configure the patient simulator as follows:
Injection temperature: 2 °C
Computation Const: 0.542
(Edward's Catheter)
Flow: 5 l/min
3 Check displayed value against the simulator configuration.
4 Expected test result: C.O. = 5 +/– 1 l/min.
Service Tool Procedure, Version 1
This procedure applies for Service Tool M1012-61601 and/or C.O. modules without option C10.
1 In monitoring mode, connect the C.O. interface cable to the module.
2 Connect one side of the service tool to the injectate receptacle of C.O. interface cable and the other
side to catheter cable receptacle.
3 Enter the C.O. Procedure window and check the results. The expected test result is:
– Tblood = 37.0
