Intended Use
The SurgiVet V3395 Plus is a low cost portable Pulse Oximetry, respiration, and temperature monitor.
It non-invasively and continuously monitors and displays arterial blood oxygen saturation of arterial
hemoglobin (SpO2), pulse rate, plethysmogram, temperature and respiration. It may be used in the
veterinary hospital or clinical environment. The Oximetry feature works with all SurgiVet Oximetry
sensors, providing SpO2and pulse rate on all patients. The SurgiVet V3395 Plus permits continuous
patient monitoring with adjustable alarm limits for Oximetry, heart rate, and respiration, as well as
visible and audible alarm signals.

General Warnings
WARNING: Federal law (USA) restricts the use or sale of this device by, or on the order of, a
licensed veterinarian.
WARNING: Do not use this device in the presence of flammable anesthetics.
WARNING: Do not autoclave, ethylene oxide sterilize, or immerse in liquid. Unplug before
cleaning or disinfecting.
WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD when cover is removed. Do not remove covers.
Refer servicing to qualified personnel.
WARNING: Do not use this device in the presence of magnetic resonance imaging (MR or MRI)
equipment.
WARNING: Do not plug the monitor into an outlet controlled by a wall switch.
WARNING: This device must be used in conjunction with clinical signs and symptoms. This
device is only intended to be an adjunct in patient assessment.
WARNING: In the event that earth ground integrity is lost, the performance of this device
and/or other devices nearby may be affected due to excessive RF emissions.
WARNING: When connecting this monitor to any instrument, verify proper operation before
clinical use. Refer to the instrument’s user manual for full instructions. Accessory equipment
connected to the monitor’s data interface must be certified according to the respective IEC
standards, i.e., IEC 950 for data-processing equipment or IEC 601-1 for electromedical
equipment. All combinations of equipment must be in compliance with IEC 601-1-1 systems
requirements. Anyone connecting additional equipment to the signal input port or signal
output port configures a medical system, and, therefore, is responsible that the system
complies with the requirements of the system standard IEC 601-1-1.
WARNING: Where HF (diathermy) is used there is no danger of burning to the patient provided
recommended components are used. Rate meters may be temporarily affected.
WARNING: Equipment is protected against defibrillator discharge. Rate meters and displays
may be temporally affected during defibrillation, but will rapidly recover.
WARNING: Any monitor that has been dropped or damaged should be checked by a qualified
service personnel to insure proper operation prior to use.
WARNING: This monitor will not operate effectively on patients who are experiencing
convulsions or tremors.
Oximetry
WARNING: Use only SpO2sensors supplied with, or specifically intended for use with, this
device.
WARNING:Prolonged use or the patient’s condition may require changing the sensor site
periodically. Change sensor site and check skin integrity, circulatory status, and correct
alignment at least every 4 hours.
WARNING: When attaching SpO2sensors with Microfoam®1tape, do not stretch the tape or
attach the tape too tightly. Tape applied too tightly may cause inaccurate readings and blisters
on the patient's skin (lack of skin respiration, not heat, causes the blisters).
1Microfoam® is a registered trademark of the 3M Company.

Cautions
CAUTION: Ensure the device’s AC rating is correct for the AC voltage at your installation site
before using the monitor. The monitor’s AC rating is shown on the external power supply. If the
rating is not correct, do not use the monitor; contact SurgiVet’s service department for help.
CAUTION: Should the device become wet, wipe off all moisture and allow sufficient time for
drying before operating.
CAUTION: This device is intended for use by persons trained in professional health care. The
operator must be thoroughly familiar with the information in this manual before using the
monitor.
CAUTION: Do not allow water or any other liquid to spill onto the monitor. Unplug the external
power supply from the monitor before cleaning or disinfecting the monitor.
CAUTION: Pressing front panel keys with sharp or pointed instruments may permanently
damage the keypad. Press front panel keys only with your finger.
CAUTION: Do not disassemble unit. This unit is not user serviceable. Refer to qualified
service personnel.
CAUTION: Ensure conductive parts including electrodes of the patient cable do not come into
contact with any conductive surfaces or earth parts.
CAUTION: It is the operator’s responsibility to set alarm limits appropriately for each
individual patient.
CAUTION: If the accuracy of any measurement is in question, check the patient’s vital sign(s)
by an alternative method and then check the monitor for proper functioning.
CAUTION: The monitor should be operated from its internal power source (if fitted) if the
integrity of the protective earth conductor is in doubt.
CAUTION: Follow local governing ordinances and recycling instructions regarding disposal
and recycling of device components.
CAUTION: The monitor contains a 1.2 hour lead-acid battery. If the battery fails to hold a
charge or otherwise become inoperable, the battery should be replaced and the old battery
should be disposed of properly. Lead-acid batteries should not be disposed of in normal trash
containers. They should be sent to the proper facilities so that the metals in them may be
reclaimed and/or recycled.
Lead-acid battery: In the US, 1-800-822-8837 will provide information about the proper disposal
of the lead-acid battery. Regulations in Europe vary from country to country. Consult local
authorities for information about proper disposal. SurgiVet, Inc. cannot dispose of monitor
batteries.
General Notes
NOTE: Operation of this device may be adversely affected in the presence of strong EM or RF
sources, such as electrosurgery equipment.
NOTE: Operation of this device may be adversely affected in the presence of computed
tomograph (CT) equipment.
NOTE: The monitor is protected against damage from defibrillator, diathermy, and
electrocautery discharge.
NOTE: All user and patient accessible materials are non-toxic.

Chapter 1: Introduction
1-4 Operation Manual SurgiVet V3395
NOTE: Hazards arising from software errors have been minimized. Hazard analysis was
performed to meet prEN1441: 1994.
NOTE: Each input and output connection of the monitor is electrically isolated. Connection of
this monitor to other equipment will not increase leakage current.
Oximetry
NOTE: Dyes introduced into the bloodstream, such as methylene blue, indocyanine green,
indigo carmine, and fluorescein, may cause an inability to determine accurate SpO2readings.
NOTE: Any condition that restricts blood flow, such as use of a blood pressure cuff or
extremes in systemic vascular resistance, may cause an inability to determine accurate pulse
and SpO2readings.
NOTE: Significant levels of dysfunctional hemoglobins, such as carboxyhemoglobin or
methemoglobin, will affect the accuracy of the SpO2measurement.
NOTE: SpO2measurements may be adversely affected in the presence of high ambient light. If
necessary, shield the sensor area (with a surgical towel, for example).
Respiration & Temperature
NOTE: Use only sensor supplied with, specifically intended for use with this device.

General Description
Parameters: The SurgiVet V3395 is Oximetry, temperature, and respiration monitor. Alarm
limits can be set on all monitored parameters.
Oximeter: The monitor continuously measures and displays arterial blood oxygen saturation
(SpO2) and Pulse Rate (HR). Oximetry includes the display of a plethysmogram and pulse
strength bar. The monitor beeps with each pulse beat. The volume of the pulse beep is
adjustable. The pitch of the pulse beep varies with the SpO2value. A variety of veterinary
reusable sensors are available for monitoring patients.
Audio:The monitor uses a multi-frequency speaker for beeps and alarm/alert sounds.
Volumes are adjustable.
Temperature:The monitor continuously measures and displays the temperature. Either
degrees in Celsius or Fahrenheit can be displayed.
Respiration: The monitor continuously measures and displays the respiration rate.
Power: The SurgiVet V3395 operates on power from an external power supply. In addition,
the monitor contains an internal NiMH battery that will allow operation for approximately 2
hours. However, the monitor should remain on the external power supply whenever possible.
