3.1 During Use
WARNING
!
• Monitor the fluid lines to insure they are air free.
Never administer fluids if there are air bubbles in
the line between the bubble trap and the patient
connector.
• Monitor the fluid level in the bubble trap frequently.
Bubbles released during heating are captured in
the trap. Do not allow the bubble trap to go below
one-quarter (1/4) full. Air can be removed from the
bubble trap by inserting a sterile syringe into the
Manual Air Eliminator (see figure 2, page 3) and
withdrawing air until the trap is two-thirds (2/3) full.
See figure 5 below.
Failure to follow the above warnings could result
in the introduction of air to the patient. Introduction
of air to the patient could result in death or serious
injury.
