Do not immerse the ICP EXPRESS Cable in any liquid, or allow liquid to
enter the plug or connectors. Do not use cable if connectors become wet.
Erratic results may occur.
Always disconnect the ICP EXPRESS Monitor from its power supply
before cleaning.
Do not sterilize the ICP EXPRESS Monitor.
Verify ICP EXPRESS Cable integrity prior to use. Do not use any cable that
fails to meet the pin-to-pin resistance or electrical leakage specifications.
The ICP EXPRESS Monitor and external patient monitor pressure displays
may be inaccurate if used simultaneously with radiofrequency
electrosurgical equipment.
The rear panel sensitivity selection switch must be set in the appropriate
position prior to connecting to the patient monitor. Do not adjust the
sensitivity selection switch while connected to a patient monitor, as
inaccurate pressure readings may result.
Discontinue use of any ICP EXPRESS Cable that continues to yield
a "-99" transducer zero reference value (as displayed on the
ICP EXPRESS Monitor screen) during manual zeroing or zero
reference verification procedures.

International Symbols

The international symbols on the ICP EXPRESS Monitor are defined
as follows:
Attention! See Instructions for Use
ON (CIRCUITS)/STANDBY (CIRCUITS)
Type CF equipment, floating input protected against defibril-
lator discharge.

ICP EXPRESS Monitor Description

Front Panel Controls (See Figure 1)
ON/OFF KEY—Turns the ICP EXPRESS Monitor operating
system ON and OFF. NOTE: When ON, the ICP EXPRESS
Monitor may be powered either from an AC power supply or
from its internal battery. The ICP EXPRESS Monitor will auto-
matically switch to battery operation if no AC power is available.
PATIENT MONITOR ZERO KEY—Initiates an electronic
0 mmHg reference signal for zeroing an externally connected
patient monitor.
PATIENT MONITOR 20 mmHg CALIBRATION KEY—
Initiates an electronic 20 mmHg reference signal for
calibrating an externally connected patient monitor.
PATIENT MONITOR 100 mmHg CALIBRATION KEY—
Initiates an electronic 100 mmHg reference signal for
calibrating an externally connected patient monitor.
TRANSDUCER ZERO KEY—Zeroes the attached
MicroSensor transducer. The zero reference value of the
transducer is automatically stored in the non-volatile memory
of the attached ICP EXPRESS Cable.
MENU/ENTER KEY—Accesses the ICP EXPRESS Monitor
MENU, or ENTERS a selected display parameter value such as
an alarm limit or a zero reference value.
UP ARROW KEY—Moves the cursor on the MENU screen
in the UP direction, or INCREASES the value of a display
parameter such as an alarm limit or a zero reference value.
DOWN ARROW KEY—Moves the cursor on the MENU
screen in the DOWN direction, or DECREASES the value
of a display parameter such as an alarm limit or a zero
reference value.
ALARM SUSPEND KEY—Silences the audible portion
of the mean ICP alarm for a period of approximately
two minutes.

Front Panel Indicators

AC Indicator

Lights whenever the ICP EXPRESS Monitor is connected to an
AC power supply.

BATTERY Indicator

Lights whenever the ICP EXPRESS Monitor is running only on its own
internal battery power.

BATTERY CHARGING Indicator

Lights whenever the ICP EXPRESS Monitor is connected to an AC
power supply and the internal battery charger is operating. The Battery
Charging indicator will remain lit even when the battery is fully charged.

Front Panel Connector

ICP Input

The ICP EXPRESS Cable connects to this receptacle for direct interface
with the CODMAN MicroSensor ICP Transducer.
Rear Panel Controls (See Figure 2)

Display Backlight ON/OFF Switch

Used to turn the front panel liquid crystal display backlight ON and OFF.
When operating the ICP EXPRESS Monitor on battery the display back-
light may be turned off to conserve power.

Patient Monitor Sensitivity Selection Switch

Used to set the sensitivity of the ICP EXPRESS Monitor external patient
monitor output signal to either 5 µV/V/mmHg or 40 µV/V/mmHg. This
switch is preset to 5 µV/V/mmHg at the time of manufacture. Refer to the
patient monitor manufacturer's instructions to verify the pressure channel
sensitivity requirements of a specific patient monitor.

Rear Panel Connectors

Patient Monitor Interface Connector

Compatible patient monitors may be connected to this receptacle using
the appropriate CODMAN Patient Monitor Interface Cable. CAUTION:
CODMAN Patient Monitor Interface Cables should be used only
with patient monitors for which they are specifically designed
and designated.

AC Power Entry Module

Connects with the AC power cord and provides access to the internal
fuses. WARNING: Do not attempt to bypass the grounding prong on
the ICP EXPRESS Monitor by using a three-prong to two-prong
adapter. The unit must be properly grounded to ensure operator and
patient safety. Grounding reliability can be achieved only when con-
nected to a receptacle marked "Hospital Only" or "Hospital Grade."

Pole Clamp

Used for mounting the ICP EXPRESS Monitor to standard pole diameters
from 1/2" to 1-1/2" (1.3 to 3.8 cm).

Handle

Used for hand transport.

AC Power Cord Retainer

Used to secure the AC power cord to the ICP EXPRESS Monitor and to
prevent inadvertent disconnection of the AC power cord.
Display (See Figure 3)

Intracranial Pressure

The ICP EXPRESS Monitor contains the digital values of the Mean,
Systolic, and Diastolic ICP in units of millimeters of mercury (mmHg).
The Mean ICP is the large value displayed in the center of the screen.
The Systolic and Diastolic ICP values are displayed with smaller charac-
ters in the bottom right portion of the screen.

Alarm ON/OFF Status

The Alarm ON/OFF status is displayed in the top center portion of the
screen. When the alarm is ON, the HI and LO alarms will engage when-
ever the mean ICP exceeds the HI or falls beneath the LO user program-
mable limits. When the alarm is OFF, the HI and LO alarms will not
engage, regardless of the mean ICP level.

Alarm Limits

The HI and LO limits for the mean ICP alarm are displayed in the top
right portion of the screen. The default values for these limits are
20 mmHg for HI and 0 mmHg for LO. Both limits may be adjusted by
using the MENU system.
