Quick Start
NXT Go Owner’s Manual, LBL-00145, MAN2030 27
information on connecting the PIM NXT to the Roam NXT, refer to the Replacing
the PIM NXT section on page 102
Use the PIM NXT for Fluid to Medex Transducer Cables to connect the pressure
transducers to the Pressure Channel Connectors on the PIM NXT for Fluid (Figure
11).
Figure 11: Roam NXT, PIM NXT for Fluid, and Pressure Transducer Connected
IMPORTANT: The Pressure Channel Connectors on the PIM NXT for Fluid are color
coated blue for Pves, yellow for Pura, and red for Pabd. The channel color coated green is
capable of Pves, Pura, or Pabd measurements.
Use Medex clamps and brackets to mount the pressure transducers on the NXT
Hoop or an IV pole at the patient’s waist height or higher.
Remove disposable cartridges from their packages. Remove protective covers
from the back and from the connector ends of the cartridges. Slide a cartridge
over each transducer until it clicks in place (Figure 12).
Aseptically remove pressure measurement tubing from its package and attach the
three-way stopcock to the lower (male) end of the pressure cartridge.
To prime the cartridge and the pressure measurement tubing, attach a sterile fluid
filled syringe to the side port of the stopcock.
Figure 12: Transducer Setup
Turn the stopcock lever in the appropriate directions to flush fluid from the syringe
through both the cartridge and the pressure measurement tubing (Figure 13).
NOTE: Always secure the cartridge stopper cap whenever changing the stopcock
lever’s position.
