possible, use a different power supply.

3. Effect of direct or indirect electrostatic discharge:

Make sure all users and patients in contact with the equipment and/or system are free from direct or
indirect electrostatic energy before using it. A humid room can help lessen this problem.

4. Electromagnetic interference with any radio wave receiver such as radio or television:

If the equipment and/or system interferes with any radio wave receiver, locate the equipment and/or
system as far as possible from the radio wave receiver.

5. Interference of lightning:

When lightning occurs near the location where the equipment and/or system is installed, it may induce
an excessive voltage in the equipment and/or system. In such a case, disconnect the AC power cord
from the equipment and/or system and operate the equipment and/or system by battery power, or use
an uninterruptible power supply.

6. Use with other equipment:

In IEC 60601-1-2 Medical Electronic Equipment, Part 1: General Requirements of Safety, 2. Collateral
Standard: Electromagnetic compatibility-Requirements and test. Section 6.2.3 Radiated radio-frequency
electromagnetic fields, PATIENT COUPLED EQUIPMENT and/or SYSTEMS applicable IMMUNITY test
methods are under consideration at SC62A/WG13. The 3 V/m IMMUNITY level may be inappropriate
especially when measuring SpO2 because physiological signals can be much smaller than those induced
by a 3 V/m electromagnetic field.
When measuring SpO2, various interference may produce false waveforms which look like pulse
waveforms. SpO2 value and pulse rate may be measured from these waveforms, causing the alarm to
function improperly.
When installing the monitor, avoid locations where the monitor may receive strong electromagnetic
interference such as radio or TV stations, cellular phone or mobile two-way radios.

 WARNING
Interaction between Minute Ventilation Rate-Adaptive Pacemakers and Cardiac Monitoring and Diagnostic
Equipment*
The bioelectric impedance measurement sensor of a minute ventilation rate-adaptive implantable pacemaker
may be affected by cardiac monitoring and diagnostic equipment which is connected to the same patient. If
this occurs, the pacemaker may pace at its maximum rate and give incorrect data to the monitor or diagnostic
equipment. If this occurs, disconnect the monitor or diagnostic equipment from the patient or change the
setting on the pacemaker by referring to the pacemaker’s manual. For more details, contact your pacemaker
representative or Nihon Kohden representative.

* Minute ventilation is sensed in rate-adaptive pacemakers by a technology known as bioelectric impedance measurement
(BIM). Many medical devices in addition to pacemakers use this technology. When one of these devices is used on a
patient with an active, minute ventilation rate-adaptive pacemaker, the pacemaker may erroneously interpret the mixture
of BIM signals created in the patient, resulting in an elevated pacing rate.

This section explains how to change settings on the SYSTEM
CONFIGURATION screen.
The initial settings on the SYSTEM CONFIGURATION screen must be
changed before monitoring. Changing these settings during monitoring
interrupts monitoring. All other settings can be changed any time without
interrupting monitoring.
You can check the SYSTEM CONFIGURATION screen settings on the
CONFIGURATION page of the SYSTEM SETUP window; the monitor
power does not need to be turned off and monitoring is not interrupted. Refer
to Section 3 of this guide.
This section also explains how to initialize the monitor. This procedure
returns all settings to the factory default settings and deletes all stored data in
memory.

OTHER PARAM Page

NOISE REDUCTION ON IMPENDANCE RESP: ON, OFF

In the impedance method, noise from the heart beat may interfere on the
respiration waveform due to electrode position, and the respiration rate may
increase to almost the same rate as the heart rate. If this occurs, set this setting to
ON to reduce noise interference on the respiration waveform.
NOTE: When this item is set to ON and the timing of the respiration and
heart beat coincide, respiration rate might not be counted. If this
occurs, set this item to OFF or check the patient’s respiration
by observing the patient’s chest movement or the respiration
waveform on the screen.

PRESS FILTER: 12 Hz, 20 Hz (only for SVM-7503 and

SVM-7523)
Select the noise filter for IBP monitoring. For normal monitoring, set the filter to
12 Hz. To see the IBP waveforms in detail, set the filter to 20 Hz.

CALCULATION METHOD: STANDARD, PEAK (only for

SVM-7503 and SVM-7523)
Select the calculation mode for displaying the IBP values.
STANDARD: The IBP values are calculated by moving average. The monitor
averages the latest 8 consecutive pulses and displays this
average as the IBP value. When a new pulse is detected, the IBP
value is recalculated using the latest 8 pulses. The IBP value
display is updated every 3 seconds.
PEAK: The systolic, diastolic and mean values of the highest pulse
wave in the latest 8 consecutive pulses are displayed as the IBP
values. The IBP value display is updated every 3 seconds.
When connected IABP causes the IBP values to vary greatly,
use PEAK to improve measurement accuracy.

When HL7 is selected on SYSTEM CONFIG window of DIAGNOSTIC

CHECK window, the PRESS CATHETER ALARM box appears. Refer to

3. CHANGING SYSTEM SETUP WINDOW SETTINGS

MASTER Window
For fast and easy alarm setup, a group of alarm items can be set all together
at one time. This is called an alarm master. For example, there may be typical
alarm settings at your hospital, or you may have certain alarm settings for certain
patients.
Even when alarms are set by an alarm master, individual alarm settings in the
alarm master can still be changed on the ALARM LIMITS or the alarm setting in
each parameter setup window.
If the monitor is turned off for more than 30 minutes when <ADMIT MODE> is
set to AUTO, the changed individual alarms return to the alarm master settings.

WARNING
If more than one medical device is used together in the same facility,
make sure all devices have the same alarm default settings (alarm
master). If the medical devices have different alarm default settings,
when the settings are returned to the alarm master settings, the
alarm setting settings of each device may be different so alarms
cannot be managed appropriately in the facility. If using different
alarm default settings according to areas or wings in the facility,
manage the alarms appropriately.
