Ambu Cardiac Care Trainer System W Mode D'emploi page 11

Do not pour lubricating gel down the tongue parts but grease the parts with a thin layer
of lubricating gel. Furthermore, it is important also to grease the tracheal tube and
laryngoscope well with lubricating gel.
Lack of lubrication can destroy the parts, especially the tongue part, but can also make the
face piece separate from the tongue part.
Silicone oil or Silicone spray must not be used as the parts can become sticky and almost
impossible to clean. The facemask must not be removed by the user. Disassembly should
only take place during service or repair.
6.3 Compression ⑦
External chest compression can be practised, and the depth of compression will be
displayed on the monitoring instrument in millimetres. It is possible to adjust the stiffness
of the chest to simulate a patient with a soft, normal or hard chest.
To ensure that the correct point of compression is applied during chest compression, the
instrument also provides indication of incorrect hand positioning, see 7.1.
The carotid pulse can be felt on both sides of the neck during chest compression, or
simulated manually by the ECG-Box, see 7.2.
6.4 Carotid Pulse
The manikin has an automatic Carotid pulse that will follow the QRS Complex that is set when
simulating a pulse using the ECG-Box in the CPR-Software or the external Ambu ECG-Box.
Further information about the control can be found in the Directions for use for the Ambu
CPR-Software or the Ambu ECG-Box.
NOTE: If the manikin is used on a USB connection Batteries or the optional power supply have
to be inserted for the pulse pump to work.
