ResMed VPAP IV ST: инструкция

4

Explanation:

 When the flow generator is not in operation and 

the oxygen flow is left on, oxygen delivered into the air delivery 

tubing may accumulate within the flow generator enclosure 

and create a risk of fire. This applies to most types of positive 

airway pressure devices.

• Oxygen supports combustion. Oxygen should not be used 

while you are smoking or in the presence of an open flame.

• Always ensure airflow is being generated by the device before 

the oxygen supply is turned on.

• Always turn the oxygen supply off before stopping the airflow 

from the device.

Note: 

At a fixed rate of supplemental oxygen flow, the inhaled 

oxygen concentration will vary, depending on where the 

oxygen is introduced, the pressure settings, patient breathing 

pattern, mask selection, and leak rate.

• Do not use the flow generator if there are obvious external 

defects, unexplained changes in performance or unusual 

noises.

• Do not open the flow generator case. There are no user 

serviceable parts inside. Repairs and internal servicing should 

only be performed by an authorised service agent.

• Explosion hazard—do not use in the vicinity of flammable 

anaesthetics.

• The flow generator should not be used with anaesthetised 

patients.

• The device should not be connected to both AC and DC power 

sources simultaneously.

• In the clinical environment any PC that is used with the flow 

generator must be at least 1.5 m away from, or at least 2.5 m 

above the patient. It must also comply with IEC 60950 or 

equivalent.

Cautions

• At low pressures, the flow through the exhalation ports of your 

mask may not clear all exhaled gas from the tubing. Some 

rebreathing may occur.

• The air temperature for breathing produced by this device can 

be as much as 6ºC higher than the temperature of the room. 

Caution should be exercised if the room temperature is warmer 

than 32ºC.

•

(S8 series only) 

When AC mains power (100–240V AC) is 

not available, always use a ResMed DC-12 converter. (The 

DC-12 converter is available as an optional accessory. It is not 

supplied with all models.) 

• Do not remove any attached accessories while power is 

connected to your device.

Note:

 The above are general warnings and cautions. Specific 

warnings, cautions, and notes appear with the relevant 

instructions in this user guide.

Servicing

The flow generator should be inspected by an authorised ResMed 

service centre five years from the date of manufacture. Before 

this, the device is intended to provide safe and reliable operation 

if it is operated and maintained according to the instructions 

provided by ResMed. Warranty details are provided with the 

device at the time of original supply. As with all electrical devices, 

if any irregularity becomes apparent, you should have the device 

inspected by an authorised ResMed service centre.

Limited Warranty

ResMed warrants that your ResMed flow generator shall be free

made by the initial consumer at the point of purchase.

This warranty is in lieu of all other express or implied warranties, 

including any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness 

for a particular purpose. Some regions or states do not allow
