Pressure Measuring Test

The test set-up is depicted in Figure 8-2, Set-up of pressure measuring test.
The pressure test checks the pressure chamber, pressure sensor, and accurate
measurement of pressure to ensure all elements are functioning properly. This
test requires an inflow tube set and a canister filled with water. The height of the
water column (hydrostatic pressure) is used to test the pressure transducer.
1. Place the inflow tube end with the bag spikes into a canister filled with water.
2. Fill the end of the tube set completely with water by starting the pump using
the Prime button. Let the pump run until the calibration sequence is completed.
Press the Pause/Resume button to stop the roller wheel. The Intrauterine Pres-
sure display displays 0 mmHg.
3. Close the hysteroscope end of the tube (use finger on luer connector tip).
4. Hold the water level of the end of the hysteroscope tube (h) 12 in [30 cm]
above the pressure chamber. The water column provides a hydrostatic pres-
sure load onto the pressure transducer.
5. Release the finger covering the luer connector end of the hysteroscope tube.
6. The intrauterine pressure display should be 20 mmHg (±5 mmHg).
7. Change the water column height. The value of the intrauterine pressure dis-
play should change accordingly.
Record results in the test log in Section 15.1. Test is successful if results fall within
acceptable tolerance limits.
