1. GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1. Introduction
This service manual describes the system, setup, operation, cleaning, maintenance,
troubleshooting, and technical specifications for the NxtGen Transport Incubator. Read
the NxtGen manual thoroughly to understand all instructions, warnings, cautions, and
notes before operating the device. International Biomedical is not responsible for any
malfunction due to improper use or service by unauthorized International Biomedical
personnel. For any technical problem, contact your International Biomedical
representative. There are no known contraindications associated with the NxtGen
Transport Incubator.
1.2. Intended Use
The NxtGen Transport Incubator is intended for use by personnel trained in neonatal
care to facilitate the movements of neonates by air or ambulance. The Transport
Incubator provides heat in a controlled manner to neonates through an enclosed
temperature controlled environment. The Transport Incubator is also intended to carry
equipment designed for airway management and monitoring of the neonatal infants
status. The device provides two modes of heat: Manual (Operator) Controlled or Skin
(Servo) Controlled. All Transport Incubators may be optionally configured with pulse
oximetry, a suction device, and an integrated heated mattress. In addition, the NxtGen
Transport Incubator may be configured with optional blue LED phototherapy to treat
indirect hyperbilirubinemia.
1.3. Classification
According to the standard IEC 60601-1 of the International Electrotechnical Commission,
Medical electrical equipment, Part 1: General requirements for safety, the infant
Transport Incubator is classified as follows:
Class II / Internally Powered, according to the type of protection against electric
shock
The NxtGen Transport Incubator and its applied parts are Type BF equipment. T1
and T2 patient probes, Pulse oximeter probe, ambient oxygen sensor, and the
mattresses are applied parts. Care must be taken that additional equipment
connected to the baby is electrically safe. To ensure patient electrical isolation,
connect only to other equipment with electronically isolated circuits.
IP33, according to the degree of protection against harmful ingress of water
Equipment is not suitable for use in the presence of a flammable anesthetic
mixture with air or with oxygen or nitrous oxide.
Continuous operation for the mode of operation
1.4. Safety Summary
The NxtGen Transport Incubator is intended to be used by trained clinicians and
operated in a manner consistent with the instructions contained in this manual. Refer to
any additional training, procedures, requirements, or documentation beyond those
identified here for operation and policies required within the institution. All personnel
operating the Transport Incubator must be familiar with the warnings and operating
procedures contained in this manual. International Biomedical is not to be held
responsible if the Transport Incubator is used in a manner inconsistent with the
instructions herein.

Part No. 715-0132, Rev. C - 17 -
As with all medical equipment, carefully route patient cabling to reduce the possibility of patient
entanglement or strangulation.
Do not modify this equipment without proper authorization from International Biomedical.
The NxtGen Transport Incubator should be used by appropriately trained personnel and under the
direction of qualified medical staff familiar with currently known risks and benefits of the NxtGen
Transport Incubator use.
Skin temperature probe is not a rectal probe. The skin temperature sensor is not to be used as a
rectal probe.
Warming transdermal medications can increase drug delivery and may result in patient danger.
Do not use the observation light, the pulse oximeter, heated mattress, or ambient oxygen monitor in
the presence of flammable anesthetics or other flammable substance in combination with air, oxygen-
enriched environments, or nitrous oxide.
USE OF OXYGEN INCREASES FIRE DANGER: Spark-producing auxiliary equipment should not be
placed in or near the Transport Incubator.
USE OF OXYGEN INCREASES FIRE DANGER: Small amounts of flammable agent left in the
incubator can cause fire.
Avoid direct sunlight or radiant heat, which can cause a dangerous increase in chambers air
temperature and affect the amount of irradiation being provided to the patient.
The use of oxygen may increase the noise level within the infant chamber.
Use of this equipment adjacent to or stacked with other equipment should be avoided because it could
result in improper operation. If such use is necessary, this equipment and the other equipment should
be observed to verify that they are operating normally.
Use of accessories, transducers, and cables other than those specified or provided by the
manufacturer of this equipment could result in increased electromagnetic emissions or decreased
electromagnetic immunity of this equipment and result in improper operation.
Varying ambient conditions, such as the ambient temperature and/or different radiation sources, may
adversely affect the patient. Please refer to your institutions policy and procedure regarding
appropriate ambient conditions.
Portable RF communications equipment (including peripherals such as antenna cables and external
antennas) should be used no closer than 30 cm (12 inches) to any part of the NxtGen system,
including cables specified by the manufacturer. Otherwise, degradation of the performance of this
equipment could result.
Do not use the NxtGen system during magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning. The NxtGen
system may affect the MRI image and the MRI unit may affect the NxtGen systems operation.
Do not use liquids in or around the Transport Incubator.
