Recommended Minimum Preventive Maintenance Schedule
Operational Tests should be performed at regular intervals. The Operational Tests augment the
automated self-tests that the Propaq MD unit performs to help ensure readiness. For more
information, see the Operational Tests in the
Propaq MD Service Manual
.
Annually
In addition to Daily/Shift Check Procedure and Operational Tests, the following is
recommended:
•
Perform NIBP calibration check.
•
Perform CO
2
calibration check.
•
The NIBP and CO
2
calibration checks should be performed annually or according to local
requirements (to be performed by a qualified Biomedical Equipment Technician (BMET))
as described in the
Propaq MD Service Manual
.
Guidelines for Maintaining Peak Battery Performance
•
Each battery should be identified with a number or letter. An identification mark is useful in
tracking battery performance.
•
Keep extra batteries in the
SurePower
Charger Station where their status can be quickly
determined. Illumination of the Ready light is the most positive indication of a fully charged
battery.
•
Always carry at least one fully charged spare battery. If no other source of back-up power is
available, two spare batteries are advisable.
•
Rotate spare batteries routinely. The charge level gradually diminishes in a battery after it is
removed from the charger even if it is not used. Regular battery rotation helps to avoid
incidents where a low battery condition is encountered because the battery has not been
recharged or used in more than 30 days.
•
Whenever possible, recharge a partially depleted battery. This can be accomplished
following any incident that involves patient monitoring. It ensures maximum operating time
for each use, without reliance on spares. The need for a spare can then serve as an alert when
an aging battery fails to provide normal operating time.
•
Keep discharged batteries separated from spare batteries that are charged. When removing a
discharged battery from the monitor, never place it in the location intended to carry a
charged spare.
Caution
DO NOT leave Propaq MD battery packs in a depleted state. Damage to the battery packs can
occur if they are left in a depleted state for more than 14 days.
