Instructions for use: Ikus - Berlin Heart

Systole [mmHg]
left/right
Operate the blood pump(s) with the manual pump
2. Select the option “Start program”() from the start menu. Enter the user number and
password, then confirm with . The system runs through the start test.
3. Wait for the test phase (a few minutes). Do not acknowledge the acoustic signal.
Messages in the message window inform you about the current status. If the system is
error-free, the “Operating mode” view appears.
4. Select Univentricular or biventricular, then confirm the desired operating mode with
.
5. In biventricular mode, you arrive at the view “Pump size and single-step mode”. In
univentricular mode, the connector seal test follows (duration approx. 10 seconds). The
Ikus checks that the blue marked driving tube connector is closed. Then the “Pump size
and single-step mode” view appears.
6. Transfer all parameter values from the old Ikus to the replacement Ikus.
7. Move the cursor to “Step left”, then confirm with . Biventricular: Move the cursor
to “Step right”, then confirm with .
8. Move the cursor to OK. Important: Do not confirm by clicking OK yet.
Note
• If no parameter values are entered into the replacement Ikus, the replacement Ikus starts
up with the following default parameter values (standard parameters):
Diastole [mmHg]
left/right
Default standard parameters
Rate [bpm]
• The default settings for systole, diastole and relative systolic duration depend on
whether the pump is registered as the left or right pump in the monitoring program.
• Univentricular: Default setting as for left pump.

Instructions
1. Open the red marked connector (univentricular) or both connectors (biventricular). To
do so, pull the seal plug out of the connector(s).
2. If possible, log on to the monitoring program of the old Ikus. Select the option “Drive off”,
then confirm with . Confirm the decision in the dialog window with or .
The Ikus sets the operation. If the option “Drive off” cannot be selected, continue with
step 15 without switching off the Ikus.
3. As soon as the old Ikus has stopped, pull the driving tube(s) off the old Ikus. To do so,
grab the plug by the ribbed plug body and pull it out of the connector.
4. Connect the driving tube(s) to the replacement Ikus. Important: Observe the colored
markings. Each plug snaps audibly into place. Check that each plug is firmly seated. To
do so, pull the plug above the ribbed plug body. Never pull on the tube!
5. Confirm with . The replacement Ikus works with the set parameters.
6. Observe the pump filling. If necessary, adjust the parameters.
7. Switch off the first Ikus (see Section 5.3.3, p. 25).

Necessary if
• the power supply of the Ikus is not guaranteed.
• The Ikus must be restarted (e.g. in emergency operating mode) and no replacement Ikus
is available.
Cautionary measure
• Bring in one or more other people to help.
• While supplying the blood pump(s) with the manual pump, your patient should be lying
