Correct positions of drip chambers:
Place the drip chamber in the Monidrop® W device so that the air intake
cap points forwards or backwards. If the drip chamber has a collar, guide
the edge of the collar to the lower slot (Figure 1). If the drip chamber does
not have a collar, guide the drip chamber to the upper slot (Figure 2).

1.3 Patient safety
1.3.1 Purpose of use
The Monidrop® W infusion monitor is intended for the periodic or con-
tinuous measurement of parenteral fluids via an intravenous route. The
Monidrop® W infusion monitor is used for dosage measurements in
intravenous therapy. The device DOES NOT set the IV dosage. Instead,
the dosage is set using the roller clamp of the infusion set. The device is
intended for use by healthcare professionals at hospitals and health care
centres and in home care.
The medical staff must determine the suitability of the device for the
intended purpose of use on the basis of device properties and technical
specifications.
1.3.2 Use
• Users of the Monidrop® W infusion monitor must read this operating
manual before using the device. A Monidor salesperson or another
authorised person must provide the first guidance of use.
• Make sure that the device is firmly in place during its use.
• Before use, check the device and its fastening mechanisms in case of
damage or any missing parts.
• Do not fully open the roller clamp or so that a continuous stream
drips into the drip chamber.
• The device is intended for use indoors in a stable operating environ-
ment. The device is not suitable for use on vehicles.
• The use of the device is not recommended for children under 10
years of age or patients of less than 20 kg, or in such situations
where the measurement accuracy should be better than ±11,8%.
• The device must not be used under direct sunlight, a powerful
spotlight or a flashing fluorescent tube. In this case, the measurement
accuracy cannot be guaranteed.
1.3 PATIENT SAFETY
!
Monidrop® W DOES NOT ADJUST the infusion rate. ALWAYS use a
roller clamp to adjust the infusion rate.

• The device must not be used during magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI).
• The Monidrop® W infusion monitor is designed as a measuring de-
vice for the administration of basic fluids, nutritional solutions, blood
products or antibiotics. The device is not applicable for use together
with strong medicinal substances requiring high accuracy.
• Only use infusion set suitable for the device, with a drip size ALWAYS
of 20 drops (gtt)/ml and accuracy of at least ±10%. Before use,
check that the infusion set is attached correctly to the device.
• The Monidrop® W infusion monitor always uses ml/h (millilitres per
hour) as the measuring unit for the infusion rate.
• Make sure that fluids can flow freely by straightening all lines.
• The height of the IV bag should be suitable for gravity infusion. The
height should be about 60 ... 90 cm above the patient.
• Make sure that the level of the drip chamber does not reach the
measurement range. Fill the drip chamber halfway at the most.
• When replacing infusion sets, follow the infusion set manufacturer’s
recommendations (note country-specific hygiene regulations).
• The operating conditions of the device must fulfil proper requirements
(e.g. VDE 0100, VDE 0107 or IEC regulations). Note country-specif-
ic guidelines and differences.
• The device has also been approved for home care in accordance
with standard 60601-1-11.
• Do not use the device in a room containing explosive substances.
• Protect the charger against moisture.
• If the device drops or suffers a heavy impact, it must be sent to a
service point for inspection.
• Only use the charger delivered with the Monidrop W device.
• Do not tilt the device heavily when using it. If the device is tilted by
1.3 PATIENT SAFETY

9
more than 20 degrees, its measurement accuracy cannot be guaran-
teed.
• The user must always evaluate the correctness of the information
displayed before making any treatment decisions.
• Regardless of recommended limits, the values selected for treatment
must be medically correct.
• The user must ensure that patient information is correct and the select-
ed target concentrations and measured dosage rates comply with the
regulations of the country in question.
• Connection is permitted only to devices that Monidor Oy has ap-
proved.
WARNING: The device does not identify any air or bubbles in the IV line.
WARNING: The device does not identify any significantly high flows (con-
tinuous drip) if the roller clamp is fully opened. In these cases, the device
may not give a direct notification.
WARNING: Modifying this device is prohibited.
WARNING: The charger cable causes a choking hazard for small chil-
dren.
WARNING: Do not use the device if its charger or cable is damaged.

5 Battery charge and maintenance
The Monidrop® W infusion monitor is equipped with a rechargeable lith-
ium ion polymer battery. A new battery can be used for 72 hours on one
charge. To ensure optimal use, the device is equipped with a protective
function against overcharging and excess battery discharge (prevention of
deep discharge).
At the top of the screen, the battery status is indicated in percentage,
and the battery symbol indicates the battery status in steps. Symbols
indicate the battery status as shown below. On the left, the battery is fully
discharged and on the right, the battery is fully charged. The percentage
displayed below indicates the battery status on a rough level.
0% 25% 50% 75% 100%
The Monidrop® W infusion monitor can also be used when its battery is
being charged, and it will operate normally. When the device is connect-
ed to the charger, the middle LED at the top of the screen will be orange
when the battery is being charged and the symbol shown below will be
displayed in place of the battery status symbol.
If the battery is fully discharged, the device will go off automatically. If the
battery is fully discharged, keep the charger plugged up to one hour until
the charging light comes on. The battery can then be fully charged.
Note: Only use the charger delivered with the device to charge the Moni-
drop® W infusion monitor. Note that the device has a limited movement
range when the charger is connected.
5 BATTERY CHARGE AND MAINTENANCE

19
Instructions for the optimal use of the battery:
• Charge the battery at least once every three months.
• At the regular operating temperature, the battery can be charged
and discharged approximately 500 times before its capacity de-
creases below 80% of the maximum value.
• The battery will slowly discharge if the infusion monitor is not con-
nected to the power grid and even if the device is not in use.
• The full operating period of the battery can only be achieved when
the device is operated uninterrupted at room temperature and the
battery is fully charged. The battery capacity displayed is indicative.
If the battery is older, the actual operating period may differ from
that shown on the screen.
Note: The battery may explode or leak if it is opened or burned/heated.
Note waste handling guidelines.
Note: While the device is charged, disconnection from the mains supply
occurs by removing the charger from the AC power socket.
WARNING: While charging Monidrop during use, ensure that access
to the mains plug is not blocked so that the charger can be disconnected
from the mains power receptacle in the event of an emergency.
Battery maintenance and warranty:
The device manufacturer provides the battery with a warranty of two (2)
years. This is the typical service life of the battery (without causing any
significant reduction in the operating period). After two years, the battery
will be replaced during scheduled maintenance.
The battery can only be replaced by a service provider authorised by
Monidor.
