Somanetics Invos 5100C
Somanetics · Model Invos 5100C
Applications for open heart surgery, vascular surgery and ICU intervention. Can be used to measure glomerular perfusion of children. It can be installed directly from the signal baseline rSO2 from all patients before surgery and during surgery. Ability to baseline at both sensors simultaneously or individually reviewed book. Display parameters SQI (Signal Quality Index). There are tables showing support event mark cases capable of causing the irrigation low blood under the tissue (rSO2 down) to the ICU, NICU and for general surgery (OR), vascular surgery (Vascular surgery). Adjust the time scale of the flow chart from 1 to 24 hours rSO2 TFT LCD display screen size 14.1". Print / save data directly via USB. Over 800 reports worldwide (clinical references). More than 6,000 devices were installed. More than 250,000 patients each year. The accuracy is comparable to capture SPECT.
Key tips
- ·A no-signal/flatline alarm gets checked on the patient first, not the monitor - rule out a real clinical event before troubleshooting.
- ·Recalibrate NIBP against a reference manometer, not just a self-test pass.
- ·Reused patient cables (SpO2, ECG leads) are a common source of intermittent-fault complaints - swap the cable before the module.
Typical Failure Modes
Compiled for this model from its own documentation and established engineering knowledge for this equipment class - not from a verified service record. Confirm against the manufacturer's service manual.
Will not power on or unexpected shutdown
HighSymptoms: The patient monitoring is dead, reboots, or shuts down mid-use.
Root cause: Mains lead / fuse, an aged battery, or a power-supply board fault.
Battery will not hold charge
MediumSymptoms: Short run time on battery; low-battery alarm soon after a full charge.
Root cause: Aged rechargeable battery pack or a charger fault.
Display / control-panel fault
MediumSymptoms: Blank, dim or distorted display; unresponsive keys or touchscreen.
Root cause: Display, backlight, or control-board fault.
Fails self-test or calibration
MediumSymptoms: Power-on self-test or the scheduled performance check fails or is out of tolerance.
Root cause: Sensor drift or an internal board fault; recalibration or repair needed.

PM Checklist
Preventive-maintenance tasks typical of this equipment class. Perform to the manufacturer's procedure and your facility's policy - this is general reference, not a schedule for this specific unit.
- ·Routine cable and lead-wire inspection for fraying/wear
- ·Battery conditioning cycle
- ·NIBP calibration check against a reference manometer
- ·ECG / SpO2 accuracy verification against a patient simulator
- ·Annual electrical safety test
Troubleshooting Approach
A starting sequence for this model, compiled from its documentation and engineering knowledge for this equipment class. Follow the manufacturer's service documentation for the actual procedure.
Symptom: A parameter drops out or reads wrong (ECG / IBP / SpO2 / temp / CO2 / CO)
- Reseat the patient cable at the module and at the monitor.
- Swap in a known-good cable / sensor for that parameter and re-test.
- Move the module to another host or slot to tell module from host.
- Inspect the module docking connector for bent or recessed pins.
- Verify against a patient simulator; replace the cable, or refer the parameter module / input board if the fault stays with it.
Symptom: NIBP will not measure or is inaccurate
- Leak-test the cuff and hose (occlude and watch for pressure decay).
- Run the monitor's NIBP calibration-verification against a calibrated manometer.
- Confirm correct cuff size and placement and check for a kinked hose.
- Verify against a NIBP simulator at several pressures.
- Refer the monitor for internal pump / valve service if it still fails.
Symptom: Blank / dim / frozen display or unresponsive touchscreen
- Power-cycle the monitor fully (mains removed, battery out where possible).
- Check the display backlight and the display / touchscreen cable.
- Note any boot or self-test error code.
- Re-calibrate the touchscreen if the touch offset is the issue.
- Replace the display / touchscreen assembly or refer the main board.
Symptom: Not shown at the central station / network dropout
- Confirm the wired drop or Wi-Fi settings and that other monitors on that segment are online.
- Check the monitor's network address / unit-bed assignment and re-admit.
- Reseat the network card / cable.
- Restart the monitor's network interface.
- Escalate a whole-unit outage to the central-station server / IT.
