Operating modes<br />
Description: Stationary Driving Unit <strong>Ikus</strong><br />
greatly shorten the maximum off-mains operating time! This particularly applies to<br />
situations where the <strong>Ikus</strong> is operated at temperatures exceeding 30 °C. Always observe<br />
the charging level display (see page 15)!<br />
• As long as the <strong>Ikus</strong> is in battery mode, a second person trained in the <strong>use</strong> of the manual<br />
pump must be constantly present with the patient.<br />
4.4 Operating modes<br />
4.4.1 Univentricular mode<br />
• LVAD<br />
• RVAD<br />
In univentricular mode, the driving tube is connected to the blood pump always (even<br />
RVAD) via the red marked connector.<br />
4.4.2 Biventricular mode<br />
Synchronous mode left/right<br />
Systole of the left and right blood pumps begins simultaneously. The rate is identical <strong>for</strong><br />
both pumps and can only be adjusted via the left pump. Systolic pressure, diastolic<br />
pressure and relative systolic duration can be set individually <strong>for</strong> each blood pump.<br />
Asynchronous mode left/right<br />
The systole of the right blood pump begins when the left pump switches from systole to<br />
diastole. The rate is identical <strong>for</strong> both pumps and can only be adjusted via the left pump.<br />
Systolic pressure, diastolic pressure and relative systolic duration can be set individually<br />
<strong>for</strong> each blood pump.<br />
Separate pulse left/right<br />
The two blood pumps are driven independently of each other. All parameters can be<br />
freely set <strong>for</strong> each pump. The rate of the right pump can be as high as the maximum rate<br />
of the left pump.<br />
4.5 Laptop with monitoring program<br />
The laptop is integrated into the <strong>Ikus</strong> casing. Via the laptop with the fixed installed<br />
monitoring program, the system is started, and parameters are adjusted and checked.<br />
The running monitoring program provides the <strong>use</strong>r with a constant stream of data about<br />
the system status and in<strong>for</strong>mation about events and malfunctions. At the same time,<br />
data is stored on the hard drive <strong>for</strong> later evaluation.<br />
A precise description of the monitoring program can be found in the chapter 5:<br />
"<strong>Instructions</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>use</strong>: <strong>Ikus</strong>", p. 19.<br />
Note<br />
• If the laptop is switched off in running operation, the <strong>Ikus</strong> continues working with the<br />
currently set parameters.<br />
