Breathing Circuit Connections:
1. Westmed Inc. supplies breathing circuits that are specified for use with the
Neo-Pod “T” Transport Humidification System and are intended for use with
a variety of ventilators; each circuit package contains a selection of
connectors and adaptors to facilitate the connection to the ventilator.
2. Refer to individual circuit product package instructions for use and
performance specifications.
3. Ensure the correct circuit assembly is selected for your specific application.
4. Water eed: Using a syringe, slowly fill the LavaBed Humidifier Cartridge with
20 ml of sterile water.
Note: Periodically observe water reservoir and if additional water is required
during transport, add as required only with a syringe. To prevent excess
water from entering the patient circuit, the cartridge incorporates a safety
drain.
Warning! Potential unsafe conditions could result if using other than
Westmed Inc. specified breathing circuits or accessories with the
Neo-Pod “T” Transport Humidification System.
Caution! Do not use a water feed set during transport. Motion or conditions
that are not level can cause the cartridge’s water level float to malfunction.
Caution! If an excessive amount of water is supplied to the cartridge, the
safety drain opens and drains the excess water out the bottom of the
cartridge.
Caution! To avoid excessive condensation do not use the breathing circuit or
LavaBed Cartridge Humidifier Cartridge outside the transport incubator.
Cautions!
1. Do not operate the Controller if damaged.
2. Do not use in the presence of flammable anesthetic agents or
supplemental gases.
3. Do not use a water feed set during transport.
4. Only use 20 ml syringe to fill and refill Lavabed.
5. Neo-Pod “T” Controller requires special precautions regarding
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and must be installed and put into
service according to the EMC information provided in this manual.
