Respiration Performance
Step 5 Change the Patient Simulator configuration to:
— Base impedance line 1500 Ohm.
— Delta impedance 0.5 Ohm
— Respiration rate 40 rpm.
Step 6 The value should be 40 rpm +/- 2 rpm.
Invasive Pressure Performance Test
This test checks the performance of the invasive pressure parameter. The Invasive Pressure
performance test is required once every two years.
Tools required: Patient Simulator.
Step 1 Connect the Patient Simulator to the Pressure connector on the Measurement Server
or the Measurement Server Extension.
Step 2 Set Patient Simulator to 0 pressure.
Step 3 Make a zero calibration.
Step 4 Configure the Patient Simulator as follows:
— P(static) = 200 mmHg.
Step 5 Wait for the display.
Step 6 The value should be 200 mmHg ± 5 mmHg. If the value is outside these tolerances,
calibrate the Measurement Server or Measurement Server Extension.
NOTE If the Measurement Server was calibrated with a dedicated reusable catheter, check the
calibration together with this catheter.
