SimMan Critical Care

General simulator handling

It is important to follow the instructions below, as well as other available User Information, in order to maintain optimum performance and longevity of the simulator components.

WARNINGS

  • Do not use additional or supplemental oxygen that would increase O2 concentration above 21% during artificial respiration and ventilation.

  • Do not use any flammable or corrosive gases.

CAUTIONS

  • Do not introduce fluids into or onto the Patient Simulator (except as directed in the User Guide) as this may damage the Patient Simulator and its components.

  • Do not introduce humidified air into the system during ventilation.

  • Never perform mouth-to-mouth or mouth- to-nose rescue breathing on the Patient Simulator. The Patient Simulator’s airways are not designed for cleaning or disinfection.

  • Do not use the Patient Simulator if the internal tubing and cabling is disconnected.

  • Do not store or use this product outside its specified operating and storage conditions.

  • Ensure that no liquid leaks into the arms during IO procedures (except as specified in the User Guide), as this may damage the electronics and cause a malfunction.

  • Do not store the simulator with fluid in the IV Arm, Fluid, or Blood Systems.

NOTE

When used in a humid environment, some drops of water may leak from the manikin’s right lower leg during startup and shutdown. This is normal and does not require assistance.
