System Specs. AirLo3

Recommended Usage Indications

3

The AirLo alternating support systems are recommended for the following patient weights.

specifications

AirLo3: 20-120kg AirLo5: 20-150kg AirLo8: 20-200kg These are standard weight ranges based on a patient with normal weight distribution placed in a supine, reclined position. It is recommended that if these patient specifications change, then these support recommendations should be re-evaluated. These systems are for the prevention and for assistance in treating pressure areas. In addition - patients suffering from low blood flow or ischemia in the extremities may also benefit from the application and release of pressure to encourage blood flow in these areas.

Contra-Indications Patient conditions for which AirLo alternating systems would be contraindicated would be the following. • Non-stable spinal cord injury • Cervical traction • Any patient exhibiting unease or agitation on alternating surfaces • Patients weighing under 20kg or over 200kg or otherwise too wide for a standard single (<90cm) or king single (107cm) mattress width.

Troubleshooting & FAQs

Safety Protocols

Problem

Cause

Solution

Control Unit does not operate or fault light flashes & alarm sounds

There may be a disconnection in the power supply

1. Ensure all cord connections from wall plug, breakaway connection at head end and pump connector are properly seated in their sockets.

The fault light below flashes and alarm sounds

There is a leak somewhere in the cell or air hose connection system

2. Check Control Unit fuse under power socket - flick open with small flat head screwdriver and replace fuse if necessary. Only use fuse type 10Amp 250Volt 1. Ensure that the CPR module is closed and the connector is properly attached to the side of the control unit. 2. Ensure that the sensor cable is properly attached to the side of the control unit under the hoses. 3. Select Care Mode for maximum pressure and check for any air “hiss” from the cell section. If you still cannot hear - wet the back of your hand and run your hand upside down along the top of the cells to find any air leak. Also look for any deformed cells as these may have internal weld failures leading to leaks of air between separate internal chambers. Once the faulty cell is found - remove and replace with the same type. 4. Look for any disconnection between hoses and their T or L connectors. Don’t forget to also check whether the air hoses are correctly connected to each of the cells.

Important Recommendations for General Use of System Mattress: Do not place any layers of material between the patient and top cover of the mattress! Doing so will compromise therapy! This includes the following: i) Hospital sheets - regular or fitted ii) Sheepskins or equivalent iii) Incontinence sheets iv) Slide sheets v) Electric heating blankets The mattress top cover is fully sealed and designed for the patient to lie directly on top. All that is required is an antibacterial wipe-down or machine wash when necessary. See Care Section for more information. Ensure the patient’s clothing does not cause skin damage due to ties, buttons, creases, seams, objects in pockets and jewellery Do not place any sharp items on or near the mattress such as syringes or scalpels or any instrument that could hole the top cover Do not place any solid item/s on top of the system besides the patient Do not spill any liquids onto the control unit. If a spillage occurs then: i) Turn off power to the control unit at the wall ii) Disconnect the power cord from the control unit iii) Wipe dry any excess moisture on the external casing iv) Check that the interior of the power connector, plug and switch is dry Failure to do the above may lead to component corrosion and or electrical safety hazards to carers and patients Do not use system in the presence of any flammable anaesthetic mixture with air, nitrous oxide or oxygen or in the presence of smoking materials or open flame - risk of explosion Control Unit

Cell or Cells rising up above adjoining cells

A cell end press stud has disconnected.

1. Open top cover and check along the sides of the inside base section. It is easy to see immediately if any of the external press studs have become disconnected. If the studs are faulty -then replace.

Do not open the control unit as there is risk of electric shock. Control units should only be opened by approved technicians or warranty will be voided Avoid blocking the air intake filter at the rear of the control unit Ensure that the power leads are undamaged and properly connected

Overlay will take 15 minutes to inflate.

Air Filter Replacement

To deflate overlay for transport or storage when not in use:

To maintain optimal performance of the control unit, it is recommended that the air filter, located at the rear of the unit be checked, cleaned or replaced every 6 to 12 months depending on the air quality where the system is being used.

Disconnect air hoses and power cord from the sides of the control unit Once most of the air has been expelled from the mattress - the head cells will remain inflated. Start at the head end and roll the overlay up around the inflated head cells from the head end to the foot end.

Mattress Removal

Control Unit Operation

To Remove the System from the Bed Take the following steps to remove the system from the bed. 1. Ensure gloves are worn and all disinfection and occupational health and safety protocols of the facility are adhered to. 2. If necessary clean and disinfect following instructions in previous section. 3. Turn off the power switch on the side of the control unit and turn the power off at the wall plug 4. Disconnect electrical cords from control unit and wall outlet. Also disconnect the power cord from the head end of the mattress and store in the bag. 5. Twist CPR on mattress to open position and allow the system to deflate. It may be necessary to roll mattress from head end to squeeze out any remaining air. Note that the AirLo3 CPR deflation is from the control unit hose connector and the head cells are designed to remain inflated. 6. Once most air is removed, roll up mattress from head end to foot end ensuring hose tube and electrical cord is tucked into the last roll. If unit is being sent by courier or being transported generally, it is recommended that the control unit be placed at the head end and the mattress rolled around the control unit to protect it. Ensure that the system is UNROLLED CAREFULLY if this is done so the control unit does not fall onto the floor! 7. Once rolled up - fit the mattress into the main compartment of the bag. 8. Lastly, remove the control unit from the foot board and place in the bag. Ensure CPR twist module is closed and hose ends are capped off.

Storage Store the system in its wheeled bag in a cool, dry area. Ensure that no heavy items are placed on top of the bag during storage.

Operation of the AirLo3 Control Unit The AirLo3 control panel has been designed for complete ease of use. There are only two active controls - the Comfort Dial on the left and the Static/Dynamic Mode selection near the middle of the panel.

Comfort Control Dial The best way to use the comfort control dial most effectively on the AirLo3 is to initially rotate it to the maximum setting. Once the patient has been positioned on the mattress and they are lucid, ask if they are comfortable. If they say “yes” then keep it on the maximum setting. This is the most effective treatment setting for a cell system of this height. If they are not comfortable, then reduce the pressure by one numerical value, wait 10 minutes for the system to reset and then try to slide your hand under a deflated cell under that part of the body with the maximum weight (usually lower back) If your hand cannot slide under body easily then increase the pressure again.

Mode Selection Button The system, on start up will default to Dynamic Mode (right LED) Press the Static/Dynamic Mode Button if you want all the cells to inflate for maximum support (Static Mode - Left LED) This mode will be active for 60 minutes before automatically reverting back to Dynamic Mode.

Alarm Mute A simple Alarm Mute button to the right of the Comfort Dial enables the user to mute any alarms. However, if the issue is not resolved, the audio alarm will reactivate after 20 minutes.

Control Unit Operation

Control Unit Operation Static Mode Static mode can be selected to cease any alternation whilst remaining at the programmed or selected comfort setting. This can be beneficial for meal breaks when the bed is inclined for back support. It gives a stable surface and a break from therapy. Static Mode will automatically revert back to Active Mode after 1 hour.

Alarms and Diagnostics: Unlocking the system After start up, or after 5 minutes without user input, the system will automatically lock to prevent tampering. The Unlock LED will light up to indicate this.  To change any settings, simply press AND HOLD the Unlock Button for 2 seconds then release to activate controls.

Positioning or transferring patient on bed To position the patient on the mattress or to generally manoeuvre or transfer the patient, press the transfer button. This will inflate the mattress to maximum pressure and provide a stable surface. The system will automatically revert to the previous mode after 20 minutes.

Auto Patient Profiling The system is programmed to automatically sense the profile of the patient - when the sensor in the head end of the mattress detects more than 20 degrees incline then it will switch to incline mode and automatically add more pressure into the mattress. Note: only provide the minimum incline necessary for intubation or feeding - excessive inclines can limit the effectiveness of the mattress.

Auto Sensor Adjustment After initial inflation, the system will automatically enter a weight detect mode. During this 7 minute period, all comfort lights will flash on and off. If a patient is on the mattress at this time, then the system will auto calculate the correct pressure setting. This auto detect mode can be used at any time by pressing the comfort button once only. It is best if the system is in static mode and the patient is totally reclined for more accuracy. The auto setting can be overridden at any time by pressing and holding the comfort button and then manually selecting. 12

The control unit features an audio visual alarm diagnostic which will activate if there is a malfunction. If the left button flashes and alarms, it indicates that there is a problem with the mattress or an air leak inside the control unit. If the right button flashes and alarms, it indicates that there is an electrical or mechanical malfunction within the control unit itself. Both these audio alarms can be silenced by pressing the mute button. This will mute the alarm for 20 minutes. If the malfunction has not been resolved however, the alarm will re-activate. For more information on alarms and faults with the system, please see the Troubleshooting section of this manual.
