Main Safety Alarms
While there are multiple alarms and safety features in the Arctic Sun™
Temperature Management System, there are five main safety alarms that will
place the device into Stop mode until the condition is addressed.
Alarm
Specification
High Patient Temperature
39.5°C (103.1°F) During system warming
Low Patient Temperature
31.0°C (87.8°F) During system cooling
High Water Temperature
42.5°C (108.5°F)
Low Water Temperature
3.5°C (38.3°F)
System Self-Test Failure
At device power ON
Consult the service manual for detailed Alarm description
Each time the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System is powered On,
a system self test for the independent safety alarm is automatically run. This
test simulates a "water high temperature" fault situation on both the primary
and secondary water temperature sensors. Both the primary and secondary
safety systems must respond to the fault and be verified by the opposing safety
system. If either safety systems do not respond appropriately either an alarm 80
or 81 will be issued. Contact Customer Support.
Non-Recoverable Alarms
If an Alarm condition occurs that prevents proper use of the device or proper
patient treatment (such as the five main safety alarms discussed above), the
system is placed into Stop mode and will not allow therapy to continue. This type
of Alarm is known as Non-Recoverable. If this situation occurs, cycle the device
power (turn device Off then On). If the alarm recurs contact Customer Support.
Recoverable Alarms
Other Alarms that temporarily Stop the device until the user is able to correct
the cause and clear the Alarm are classified as Recoverable. If the condition that
initiated the alarm is not addressed and problem persists, the Alarm will recur.
If a Recoverable Alarm occurs:
1) When an alarm is issued the device is placed into Stop mode.
2) Read the displayed instructions.
3) Note the Alarm number.
4) Press the Close button to clear the alarm.
5) Follow the instructions to correct the alarm condition. Perform the actions in
the order listed until the alarm condition is resolved.
6) Once you have cleared the alarm, press the Start button in the therapy
window to restart therapy. You will hear a tone and a voice stating
"Therapy Started". Additionally, the active therapy window and the
Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System icon will blink.
7) If the condition does not resolve, contact Customer Support.
Alerts
Alerts are denoted by an audio signal that repeats every 25 seconds. The Alert
screen will appear that displays the alert number, alert title, a description
of the problem that triggered the alert, and solutions and instructions for
troubleshooting and resolving the alert condition.
If an Alert occurs:
1) Read the displayed instructions.
2) Note the Alert number.
3) Press the Close button to clear the alert.
4) Follow the instructions to correct the alert condition. Perform the actions in
the order listed until the alarm condition is resolved. If the condition does
not resolve, contact Customer Support.
5) Refer to the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System Help screens for
additional information regarding alarms and alerts.
Chapter 7 – Maintenance and Service
Cleaning and Maintenance
Routine cleaning and preventive maintenance should be performed on the
Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System control module every 6 months at
a minimum. This consists of cleaning the external surfaces, accessories and chiller
condenser, inspecting the device, and replenishing the internal cleaning solution that
suppresses microorganism growth in the water reservoir and hydraulic circuit. See the
Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System Service Manual for additional
information.
External Surfaces
•
Clean the exterior body of the control module, fluid delivery lines, power cords
and temperature cables using a soft cloth and mild detergent or disinfectant
according to hospital protocol.
Condenser
•
A dirty chiller condenser will significantly reduce the cooling capacity of the
control module.
•
To clean the condenser, wipe the dust from the exterior grill using a soft cloth.
Depending on the quality of your institution's air, periodically remove the back
cover and vacuum or brush the condenser fins. At a minimum the condenser
fins should be cleaned annually. Maintenance activities should be performed by
qualified personnel.
Device Inspection
•
Periodically inspect the external areas of the device for damaged, loose
or missing parts, and frayed or twisted power cords and cables.
•
Discontinue using the device displaying one or more of the above conditions until
the problem is corrected and has been verified to be operating correctly.
Replenish Internal Cleaning Solution
Contact Customer Service to order internal cleaning solution. For information
regarding safe handling please refer to http://www.medivance.com/manuals for the
Cleaning Solution SDS.
To replenish the internal cleaning solution:
1) Drain the reservoir.
•
Turn control module power Off.
•
Attach the drain line to the two drain valves on the back of the control
module. Place the end of the drain line into a container. The water will
passively drain into the container.
2) Refill the reservoir.
•
From the Hypothermia therapy screen or the Normothermia therapy screen,
press the Fill Reservoir button.
•
The Fill Reservoir screen will appear. Follow the directions on the screen.
•
Add one vial of Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System cleaning
solution to the first bottle of sterile water.
•
The filling process will automatically stop when the reservoir is full.
Continue to replace the bottles of sterile water until the filling process stops.
•
When the Fill Reservoir process is complete, the screen will close.
Do not use Cleaning Solution that has passed the use by date listed on the bottle.
The Cleaning Solution must be stored inside the UV resistant pouch provided.
Preventative Maintenance
Use of the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management System in excess of 2,000
hours, without conducting preventative maintenance, may result in failure of
certain system components and failure of the system to function as intended.
To maintain system performance, the Arctic Sun™ Temperature Management
System requires periodic service of key components.
