The Welch Allyn CP 150 EKG machine itself does not require calibration. However, if calibration is needed for the spirometry syringe used with the CP 150, you should contact your local Hillrom Customer Support representative and provide the serial number of the unit or the spirometry syringe.

Page 17
Directions for use Introduction 13 CAUTION The requirements of AAMI EC11, Section 3.2.7.2, Frequency and Impulse Response, for an impulse triangle waveform may be impacted by up to 5 milliseconds of small amplitude dampened ringing immediately after the impulse when the muscle filter (35 Hz) is turned on or a small amplitude offset when the baseline filter (0.5 Hz) is turned on.

16 Setup CP 150 12-lead resting electrocardiograph Powering the electrocardiograph The electrocardiograph runs on AC or battery power. Plug the electrocardiograph into AC power as often as possible so that the built-in charger can keep the battery charged. Regardless of the battery condition, you can use the electrocardiograph whenever it is plugged in.
WARNING Avoid positioning any leads or cables so that they could easily trip someone or become wrapped around a patient’s neck. Welch Allyn recommends looping the power cord around the mobile stand cord wrap as shown. Verifying proper operation To ensure the accuracy of test data, you should verify proper operation of the electrocardiograph before it is used for the first time with patients.
Page 22
The amplitude and rate of the waveforms should match the input value from the ECG simulator. • Z-fold thermal paper should stop with perforations near the tear bar, indicating proper cue-sensor operation. 3. If you see any indications of improper operation, contact Welch Allyn Technical Support.

ECG tests Attach the leads to the patient Proper lead attachment is important for a successful ECG. The most common ECG problems are caused by poor electrode contact and loose leads. Follow your local procedures for attaching the leads to the patient. Here are some common guidelines. WARNING Electrodes can cause allergic reactions.

Maintenance Cleaning the equipment WARNING Keep the electrocardiograph, reusable electrodes, and the patient cable clean. Patient contact with contaminated equipment can spread infection. CAUTION Never let soap or water come into contact with the electrocardiograph’s internal printer, connectors, or jacks. CAUTION Never immerse the electrocardiograph or the patient cable in liquid.
Check all cable and cord connections; reseat if any connectors are loose. Testing the electrocardiograph Welch Allyn recommends verifying proper operation of the electrocardiograph once a year to ensure reliability. See Verifying proper operation. Whenever the electrocardiograph is serviced or whenever problems are suspected, verify continued electrical safety of the device using IEC 60601-1 or ANSI/AAMI ES1 methods and limits.
Directions for use Maintenance 55 • Chassis leakage current • Earth leakage current • Dielectric strength (AC and patient circuits) Replacing the battery Replace the battery under these circumstances: • It loses its charge quickly. • You have charged it, and the electrocardiograph still does not turn on when unplugged.
56 Maintenance CP 150 12-lead resting electrocardiograph WARNING Failure to unplug could result in electrocution. To replace the AC fuses If either fuse is dark or has a broken wire, replace the fuse. Line up the fuse case with the opening; it goes in only one way.
Troubleshooting Lead-quality problems “Artifact” message on the screen Artifact is signal distortion that makes it difficult to accurately discern the waveform morphology.
