n
Press the ZERO PRESSURE key for 2 seconds
n
Close the transducer
5. Confirm that the operation mode is AUTO. 6. Attach the IAB catheter and the appropriate extender to the safety disk. 7. To initiate pumping, press the START key. In response the IABP will Autofill and then begin pumping. If desired, IAB DEFLATION timing can be fine-tuned using the IAB DEFLATION controls. 8. Verify the setting of the AUG. ALARM: n
n
erify that the AUG. ALARM setting is approximately 10 mmHg less than V the patient’s diastolic augmented pressure. needed, adjust by pressing the AUG ALARM key and using the NAVIGATION If ARROW keys to change the value displayed on the screen.
9. Initial setup is now complete. * For Sensor IAB Calibration: – On initial insertion, pressing the START key automatically purges and fills the IAB and calibrates the Sensor IAB if connected. – While assisting, press and hold the Zero Pressure key for two (2) seconds to perform an operator-initiated calibration of the Sensor IAB. The displayed blood pressure parameters from the IAB Sensor are only valid if the IAB Sensor is properly calibrated. To prevent calibration of the IAB Sensor at inappropriate times, the Zero Pressure key is disabled when: n
The IABP is in STANDBY.
n
The IAB Sensor is disconnected.
n
The Pressure Source is set to External.
n
The IAB Fill Mode is set to Manual Fill.
** For conventional IAB/Transducer: – Zero the transducer as noted above To prevent zeroing the transducer at inappropriate times, this key is disabled when: n
Pulsatility is detected on the AP waveform.
n
The transducer is disconnected.
n
The Pressure Source is set to External.
Note: A connected and functional Sensor IAB takes priority over an arterial pressure transducer, as the Direct pressure source. The Sensor IAB must be disconnected to activate the arterial pressure transducer input. The pump automatically searches for a viable pressure source when multiple sources are available.

IAB Sensor Low Level Pressure Output – to Bedside Monitor This output connector is used to provide an electrical signal from the IAB Sensor module to the physiologic pressure transducer input on the patient’s bedside monitor when a Sensor IAB is connected and calibrated. Its low level output emulates that of a typical Arterial Pressure Transducer, allowing direct connection to the patient inputs of the bedside monitor when a Sensor IAB is connected and calibrated. IAB Sensor Output – Vent This button facilitates the zeroing process required for proper calibration of the physiologic pressure channel of an attached bedside monitor. When pressed, the IAB Sensor Output signal will simulate that of an atmospheric vented transducer. Venting will be simulated for 15 seconds to give users adequate time to zero the pressure channel on the bedside monitor. The pressure signal will then be restored automatically to permit monitoring through the bedside and centralized monitoring systems.
OPERATING MODES AUTO Operation Mode All aspects of pump Operation are automated n
Most appropriate trigger source is automatically selected.
n

n
Leads I, II, III, AVR, AVL, AVF, V or External ECG source can be selected.
n
Timing must be readjusted by the operator if heart rate or rhythm changes.
n
Loss of trigger causes an alarm and pumping will stop.
n
Manual timing is typically used for pediatric IABP patients.
WARNING: The CS300 must be in Semi Auto Operational mode whenever no aortic pulse is present, and IAB assist is desired. For example, whenever circulatory bypass or a laminar flow, left ventricular assist device is in use.
Trigger Source n n
n
Trigger is the signal the CS300 uses to identify the beginning of the cardiac cycle. The Trigger Source keys are only active in the SEMI AUTO and Manual Operation Modes. Regardless of the Operation Mode, the active trigger source is indicated by a flashing diamond in the upper right corner of the screen.
ECG n
The R wave of the ECG is the trigger event.
n
Pacer spikes are rejected.
n n
ESIS (electrosurgical interference suppression) is automatic in this mode. When using SEMI AUTO or Manual Operation modes, the ECG gain can be adjusted from 0.15 to 3.00, relative to a normal gain of 1.0. The amount of gain will be displayed next to ECG GAIN on the monitor screen. Go to Pump Options – ECG Gain to adjust.
Pressure n
The systolic upstroke of the arterial waveform is the trigger event.
n
The CS300 will automatically adapt the pressure trigger threshold to the systolic pulse height of the arterial pressure waveform.
n
The pressure trigger threshold is displayed just below the trigger source on the monitor screen and the arterial waveform is marked with a horizontal tick to indicate the trigger point.
| 4 | CS300 ™ | Abbreviated Operator’s Guide |
n
When using the SEMI AUTO or Manual Operation modes, a fixed pressure threshold can be manually set. Go to Pump Options - Pressure Threshold to adjust.
When using PRESSURE, the balloon must be fully deflated before the upstroke of systole. Caution: If an irregular rhythm develops while using pressure trigger, the CS300 will automatically adjust deflation timing early to avoid interfering with systolic ejection. Do not attempt to adjust the deflation control. Pressure triggering is NOT recommended for use with sustained irregular rhythms. Pacer V/A-V n
n
n n
This trigger mode is only available in the SEMI AUTO and Manual Operation modes. The ventricular spike of a ventricular or an atrial-ventricular pacemaker is the trigger event. Patient must be 100% paced. It is typically used when ECG triggering is unsuccessful and a ventricular or atrial-ventricular sequential pacemaker is in use.
Pacer V: Assists 100% ventricular paced rhythms up to a rate of 185 beats per minute. Pacer A-V: Assists 100% atrial-ventricular paced rhythms provided the A-V interval is between 80-224 msec. and the pacing rate is less than 125 beats per minute. Pacer A n
This trigger mode is only available in the SEMI AUTO and Manual Operation modes.
n
The R-wave of the ECG is the trigger event.
n
Atrial pacer spikes are enhanced and rejected.
n n
n
Atrial pacemaker pulse rejection time is expanded in this mode. This trigger mode is recommended only if atrial pacer tails interfere with R-wave detection when using the ECG trigger. Fixed or demand atrial pacing can be used in this trigger.
Caution: Never use Pacer A trigger in the presence of a ventricular paced rhythm. Internal This trigger mode is only available in the SEMI AUTO and Manual Operation modes.
n n
n n
Internal trigger is used when there is no mechanical cardiac cycle, i.e. cardiopulmonary bypass or asystole. In normal Operation, the rate is fixed at 80 BPM. The internal trigger rate can also be adjusted from 40 to 120 BPM, in increments of 5 BPM. Go to Pump Options – Internal Rate to adjust.
Note: If an R-wave is detected when using this mode, the System automatically deflates the IAB and the message ECG Detected will be displayed on the monitor screen. Warning: Never leave the system set in the Internal Trigger Mode if the patient is generating a cardiac output.

TIMING Timing refers to the positioning of inflation and deflation points on the arterial waveform. In the STANDBY mode an inflation marker appears as a highlighted interval on the Arterial Pressure Waveform. To supplement the marker, a horizontal bar is drawn beneath the Arterial Pressure Waveform. To Set Initial Inflate Timing [not applicable in AUTO Operation mode.] n
Use the IAB Inflation arrows until the highlighted segment of the arterial pressure trace begins at the dicrotic notch.
To Set Initial Deflate Timing [optional with ECG Trigger in the AUTO Operation mode.] n
Use the IAB Deflation arrows to adjust the end of the highlighted segment prior to ventricular ejection. Highlighted Inflation Marker Dicrotic Notch
Inflation Marker
After initiating assist, the IAB INFLATION [only operational in the Semi Auto and Manual Operation modes] and IAB DEFLATION controls can be adjusted to maximize augmentation and hemodynamic unloading. Timing at a frequency of 1:2 is illustrated below:
CLINICAL TROUBLESHOOTING – CLINICAL CONSIDERATIONS DURING OPERATION ECG: There are several methods to correct conditions that alter or hamper the acquisition of a reliable ECG. Reposition or replace ECG electrodes and check that the patient cable is properly connected. In SEMI AUTO Operation mode, choose an alternate lead selection or change ECG Gain setting.
| 6 | CS300 ™ | Abbreviated Operator’s Guide |
Pressure: Sensor IAB The IAB Sensor Connector must be securely inserted into the IAB Sensor Module. Always take care to avoid contaminating the tip of the Sensor Connector. Confirm that the Sensor Connector is firmly seated in the IAB Sensor Module. If the Sensor Connector is reconnected to the Sensor Module, the pump will automatically calibrate the sensor within one minute or a calibration may be manually invoked by pressing the Zero Pressure key while the pump is assisting. Conventional IAB/Transducer Flush arterial line at regular intervals per standard hospital procedure. Adequate flushing to maintain pressure line patency and alignment of stopcock in the proper position will prevent the majority of possible pressure trace problems.
Atrial Fibrillation: In AUTO Operation mode, there are no special pump considerations for handling atrial fibrillation. In SEMI AUTO Operation mode, use ECG Trigger. This will track random rhythm most consistently, by automatically holding the IAB inflated until the detection of the next R-Wave. Pressure triggering is NOT recommended in atrial fibrillation.
Triggering on Ectopics: The CS300 automatically deflates on and assists the ectopic beat, if the ectopic R-wave is sensed. In SEMI AUTO Operation mode, if the ectopic beat is of small amplitude, reliable triggering can be maximized if an ECG Lead is selected which minimizes the amplitude difference between the normal QRS complex and that of the ectopic beat. No special adjustments are necessary.
Cardiac Arrest – Ventricular Fibrillation: When defibrillating the patient, the CS300 has protection and is completely isolated from the patient and the defibrillator’s electrodes. However, the operator should stand clear of the pump during defibrillation. This is particularly important when the CS300 is operated while disconnected from an earth grounding point, such as the A.C. power receptacle.
Ventricular Standstill or Prolonged Cardiac Arrest: If possible, use ECG or Arterial Pressure trigger during CPR. This facilitates synchronization of the assist to the rate and rhythm of chest compressions. In AUTO Operation mode, the ECG (R-wave) or Arterial Pressure signal will automatically be selected as the Trigger Source. Choice is dependent upon relative signal quality. If neither the ECG nor the Arterial Pressure signals produce adequate trigger reliability to allow for AUTO Operation, the IABP may be triggered by its own internal clock. Select the SEMI AUTO Operation mode and set the Trigger Source to Internal. The default internal rate is 80 bpm but can be varied between 40 and 120 bpm by accessing the Pump Options menu and setting the Internal Rate.
| Abbreviated Operator’s Guide | CS300 ™ | 7 |
Prolonged Time in Standby and Thrombus on the IAB membrane: If the CS300 is inadvertently placed in STANDBY, the time in STANDBY will appear on the left side of the monitor screen. After 10 minutes an alert message will appear. The audible alert is user selectable. Verify whether it is appropriate to resume assist. If so, press the START key to resume assist. WARNING: The patient balloon should not remain inactive (i.e., not inflating and deflating) for more than 30 minutes due to the potential for thrombus formation.
USE IN ELECTRO-SURGICAL ENVIRONMENT The CS300 IABP has built in Electro-Surgical Interference Suppression (ESIS) that minimizes Electro-Surgical Unit (ESU) noise from disturbing system performance. While the system will suppress ESU noise, it cannot eliminate it all together. Sparking to tissue occurs when an ESU is operated. This generates noise that extends into the ECG frequency range. Since the system must pass these frequencies, some ESU noise may interfere with the ECG signal, particularly with high ESU power settings. Limiting the power of this noise energy is desirable. The magnitude of interference is directly related to the power setting of the ESU, which should be as low as possible for the intended effect. Successful ECG triggering in the presence of ESU noise depends, to a large extent, on proper patient preparation and ESU use. Following the guidelines listed will minimize the amount of energy coupled from the ESU to the ECG input of the CS300, generally resulting in stable ECG triggering. When the CS300 is in AUTO Operation mode, it will automatically select Pressure Trigger when ESU interference is detected and return to ECG a short interval after interference ceases. If the clinician prefers to stay in Pressure Trigger during the operating room procedure, this can be accomplished by selecting SEMI AUTO Operation mode. Then select Pressure Trigger Source. Return to AUTO Operation mode when appropriate. When the CS300 is used in an electrosurgical environment, the following techniques are recommended to minimize interference from electrosurgical devices: n
Always use supplied MAQUET Operating Room ECG patient cable and lead wire option. See “ECG Patient Cable Options” on page 10-7 of the CS300 Operating Instructions for more information. These cables are shielded and incorporate ESU suppression components
n
n n
n
Keep the ECG cables at right angles to the electrosurgical cables to the greatest extent possible Locate the ECG electrodes as far away from the surgical site as possible Locate the ECG electrodes approximately equidistant from the surgical site to minimize any difference in potential between electrodes Place all ECG electrodes on the same plane (either anterior or posterior) to minimize any difference in potential between electrodes
n
Place the electrosurgical return plate directly under the surgical site
n
Use the minimum required electrosurgical setting
WARNING: External bedside monitors used with the CS300 in the operating room, must be equipped with Electro-Surgical interference suppression.
| 8 | CS300 ™ | Abbreviated Operator’s Guide |
CHANGE IN PRESSURE MONITORING SITE: If patient’s pressure monitoring site is changed while assisting in SEMI AUTO or Manual Operation mode, the INFLATION INTERVAL key can be quickly pressed and released to recalculate arterial pressure transmission delay (APD). This will assure accurate digital pressure display values and arterial pressure trace inflation interval markers.
ALARMS AND ADVISORY MESSAGES Help screens are provided to guide the user through set-up procedures and for consultation regarding alarm message descriptions and alarm configurations. Help screens are context sensitive and available based on the information displayed on the screen. Detailed information on all Alarm and Advisory messages is provided in the CS300 Operating Instructions. The IABP utilizes both auditory and visual alarm signals to communicate the need for attention or awareness by the pump operator. ALARM messages are displayed in the ALARM MESSAGES section of the monitor display.

BATTERY OPERATION The system automatically switches to battery power if AC power is not available (intentionally or due to power loss). When AC power is restored, the system automatically reverts from internal battery operation to AC Mains usage. The internal battery pack charges while the system operates from AC Mains power. Prior to portable operation, the battery should be fully charged. A fully charged battery is indicated by a continuously illuminated battery-charging LED (located on the front panel). n

Verify that the “Battery in Use” Informational Message and the Battery Indicator are displayed when in battery operation. Battery charging is not active when the battery is in use. When the battery has approximately 30 minutes of operating time remaining, the following occurs: - The Medium Priority Alarm tone is activated. -The “Low Battery” Medium Priority Alarm message is displayed on the screen continuously. - The Battery Indicator is displayed as empty and it starts flashing. - The condensate removal module will not operate (to conserve remaining power).
Battery Charging To charge the internal battery: 1. Leave the system power cord plugged in and set the MAINS On/Off to ON. 2. Check that the Battery Charging LED is illuminated (continuously or flashing depending on state). 3. Allow a minimum of 8 hours to fully charge a low battery. 4. A fully charged new internal battery will provide at least 135 minutes of portable operation. NOTE: A reduction in run time will occur over a battery’s life due to age, storage temperature and discharge depth. Batteries which are continually subjected to complete discharge cycles without the recommended immediate recharging, can incur permanent damage. See “User Maintenance” on page 7-10 of the CS300 Operating Instructions for additional information.
OPERATION FROM DC-TO-AC INVERTER The CS300 can be powered from a DC-to-AC inverter if the DC source and the inverter meet the specifications defined in the CS300 “Operating Instructions” on page 5-4. The DC source and inverter should be checked for proper operation by qualified maintenance personnel prior to emergency use. The message Battery in Use will not be displayed during proper AC inverter Operation.
