5.14 Changing Container during Surgery
The device system detects automatically the replacement of a container. The pump
will stop immediately, and the deficit display is locked to insure an accurate deficit
count is maintained. Brief fluctuations in the deficit calculation (< 10 s) may occur
when a container is replaced. The replacement of a container is indicated with the
message Container Change, Press Resume.
• Disconnect tubing from full containers.
• Immediately remove full containers from scale.
• Install new containers.
• Reconnect tubing to new containers.
• Press Pause/Resume button to resume procedure.
WARNING!
Fluid bag and container change during surgery
A fluid bag or container change during surgery is only allowed, if the fluid bag or
container holds at least 0,5 liters of fluid or waste. Otherwise, the deficit value may
be falsified. In this case, the manufacturer recommends manual deficit calculation.
WARNING!
Touching containers and their holders
Touching the containers and their holders as well as vibrations of the balancing
system should be avoided during surgery to prevent false detection of the con-
tainer change and not negatively affect the accuracy of the deficit calculation.
WARNING!
Change of the containers
Containers should be changed quickly to avoid affecting the accuracy of the deficit
calculation.
WARNING!
Accuracy of the deficit
To avoid affecting the accuracy of the deficit calculation ensure that the first step
of the container change is to disconnect tubing from the full containers. Reconnect
tubing to the new containers only if they are already inserted into the scale.
