4 Patient Alarms and INOPs
95
C.O. INOPs
<SO₂ Label>Light Intens
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone
The intensity changed considerably since the last light intensity calibration. This may indicate that the
catheter tip is positioned against a blood vessel wall or that there is low blood flow. Reposition the
catheter (and perform a Light Intensity Calibration).
<SO₂ Label> Low Light
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone
The optical signal levels are too low. Check that the catheter is either in the optical reference or
inserted into the patient. Check the catheter-to-Optical Module connection. If INOP persists, try
another catheter and Optical Module.
<SO₂ Label> No OptMod
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone
Connect the Optical Module. If the INOP persists, try another Optical Module. Silencing this INOP
switches the measurement off.
<SO₂ Label> OptMod Malf The Optical Module memory is faulty, and calibration data cannot be stored for transport or during
power failure. If this capability is needed, use another Optical Module.
<SO₂ Label> Pre-Ins Cal
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone
The pre-insertion calibration is running. This typically takes one minute. During this time alarms are
switched off. Wait until the calibration is complete.
<SO₂ Label> Unplugged
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone
Measurement switched on and SO
2
/SvO
2
module unplugged from the rack.
<SO₂ Label> Upgrade
INOP tone
The SO
2
module is currently in upgrade mode.
Monitoring is not possible in this mode.
<SO₂ Label> Warmup
Numeric is replaced by -?-
The Optical Module has not yet reached the operating temperature. Wait a few minutes until warm-up
is finished.
INOP Message, Indication What to do
INOP Message, Indication What to do
C.O. Deactivated
INOP tone
The Cardiac Output measurement label in the measurement device has been deactivated by
deactivating the label in the Measurement Selection window. The measurement automatically
disappears from the display. To switch the measurement on again, reactivate the measurement label in
the Measurement Selection window.
C.O. Equip Malf
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone
There is a problem with the C.O. hardware. Contact your service personnel.
C.O. Unplugged
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone
Plug in the C.O. module. Silencing this INOP switches off the measurement.
CCI No BSA
CCI numeric unavailable
INOP tone
CCI cannot be calculated because the patient's body surface area is unknown. Enter the patient weight
and height to provide the BSA for CCI calculation.
CCO BadPressSignal
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone
The arterial pressure wave can currently not be used for pulse contour calculation for CCO or CCI
measurement. Possible causes are air bubbles in the tubing or a physiological condition, for example
severe arrhythmia.
CCO No Calibration
Numeric is replaced by -?-
The CCO measurement is currently not calibrated.
CCO No <Press Label>
Numeric is replaced by -?-
INOP tone may sound
CCO/CCI cannot be calculated. Make sure that the pressure chosen in the Setup CCO menu under
CCO from matches the pressure measured with the arterial catheter for CCO measurement. A
pressure from an external device cannot be used. Select another pressure label, either ABP, Ao, ART,
BA P, FA P, or UAP.
