SETUP FOR CLINICAL USE
1
Position the ICP Monitor
The ICP Monitor is intended to be securely positioned on a hard flat surface, or securely clamped to an IV or equipment pole
next to the patient.
a1
Set on Hard, Flat Surface
Position monitor at eye level so screen can be viewed comfortably.
OR
a2
Mount to IV Pole
Secure monitor clamp to the IV pole at eye level so the screen can be viewed comfortably. The pole clamp fits poles
between 19mm and 38mm in diameter.
NOTE: Make sure to position the device is such a way that the Power Adapter plug on the back of the device and cable
connections on the side of the device are accessible.

Confirm Date and Time
It is important to confirm that the time and date are set correctly so that all acquired data is tagged with the correct
information. The ICP Monitor will display the current system date and time on any of the main screens (see Figure 4). If
incorrect, adjust time and date by selecting Home Screen, then Settings (see Figure 9), then Set Time/Date (see Figure 10).

ICP Sensors must be "zeroed" before implantation. The zeroing process is performed to calibrate the Sensor to atmospheric
pressure prior to measuring ICP. Follow the zeroing steps included in the Instructions for Use packaged with the ICP Sensor
and Extension Cable.
CAUTION: Do NOT submerge the tip of the ICP Sensor vertically in a deep pool or cup of sterile water or sterile saline. Doing
so will impose a hydrostatic pressure on the ICP Sensor diaphragm that is higher than atmospheric pressure, resulting in an
inaccurate zero reference.

Connect the ICP Extension Cable to the yellow connector on
Connect
the ICP Monitor. The ICP Extension Cable may be autoclaved
according to the associated instructions for use. Follow your
institution's procedures and maintain sterile technique.
NOTE: Cable Connectors are push/pull. DO NOT twist.
• Extension Cable connector tab and arrows should face
forward, in same direction as the Monitor screen.
Remove
• Push yellow connector into yellow port until you hear a click.
• To remove cable, grab gray textured part of connector and
pull away from monitor.
b
While maintaining sterile technique, connect the ICP Sensor to
the ICP Extension Cable. The connection is a tight fit with no
audible or tactile click.
c
Once the sensor is connected, the Monitor will play a sound and
will display the zero symbol.
