Sidestream Type Setup Connection
Intended use
The ISA product family consists of three types of sidestream gas analyzers (ISA CO2, ISA AX+
and ISA OR+), which are intended to be connected to other medical host devices for
monitoring of breath rate and the following breathing gases:
ISA CO2: CO2
ISA AX+: CO2, N2O, Halothane, Isoflurane, Enflurane, Sevoflurane and Desflurane
ISA OR+: CO2, O2, N2O, Halothane, Isoflurane, Enflurane, Sevoflurane and Desflurane
ISA CO2, ISA AX+ and ISA OR+ are intended to be connected to a patient breathing circuit
for the monitoring of inspired/expired gases during anesthesia, recovery and respiratory care.
The intended environment is the operating suite, intensive care unit and patient room. ISA
CO2 is also intended to be used in road ambulances. The intended patient population is adult,
pediatric and infant patients.
They are only intended to be connected to medical devices approved by PHASEIN AB.
NOTE
An ISA sidestream gas analyzer should never be used as the only means
of monitoring a patient.
An ISA sidestream gas analyzer shall only be connected to medical devices
approved by PHASEIN.
MODULE System set-up
Include the set-up instructions below if your system is fitted with an ISA build-in sidestream
module.
To set up the <host device> for gas analysis, follow these steps
I. Connect a Nomoline Family sampling line to the inlet port of the ISA gas analyzer.
II. Connect the gas sample exhaust port to a scavenging system or return the gas to
the patient circuit to prevent pollution of the operation room when N2O and/or
anesthetic agents are being used.
III. Power up the <host device>.
IV. A green LED indicates that the ISA gas analyzer is ready for use.
V. Perform a pre-use check as described in Pre-use check
