Einleitung

Replacing the bacterial filter in HAMILTON-C1 assures non-contamination in ventilator’s inspiratory and expiratory gas paths. Keep in mind that all bacterial filters are single patient-use only! This is the bacterial filter replacement guide for a COAXIAL circuit setup.

    • Orient Hamilton-C1 so the right side of the device is facing you.

  2. XUwGxYW5MwSXFOWc

    • Disconnect HME (heat and moisture exchanger) and flex tube

    • Bacterial filter is held within the HME.

    • Use both hands to gently pull and/or twist the flex tube and HME away from one another until fully disconnected.

    • The HME should still be connected to the overall circuit setup.

    • In reassembly, a new HME with a non-contaminated bacterial filter will be reconnected to the flex tube for this step.

  3. CCaIFkOmUyZjyjJV

    • Disconnect HME and circuit setup

    • Use both hands to gently pull and/or twist the flow sensor and HME away from one another until fully disconnected.

    • The HME (with used/contaminated bacterial filter) should now be completely disconnected from all parts.

    • In reassembly, a new HME with a non-contaminated bacterial filter will be reconnected to the flow sensor for this step.

Abschluss

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.
