Attachment Day 20FridayMeet William at commenwealth at 8am sharp as the appointment in SGH is 830am.Early in the morning went to SGH operation theater to service an IABP pump system97.The reason why we have to go so early is because the operation theater has cases at about 9am and they will be extremely busy and nobody will attend to us.so we reach there earlier than appointment time and quickly service that pump.luckily the maintenance service this month for this machine is a minor one and so the test and checks we have to do will be simple. this IABP system 97 pump is an older version than system 98 and has no auto modes to check internal function so we has to do it ourselves.We did a electrical safety test and also did a few simple checks for the machine. William told me that if it is the major PM then we will have to bring the testing equipment to test. IABP pump have regular checks every three months and minor and major is alternatively.this machine belongs to type 1 class CF (cardiac floating), that means the machine has direct contact to patient's heart.Next stop was NUH.we did two ventilator by SIEMENS servo 900c.they are the older version ventilator which meter runs on analog system.so far i have not seen servo 900c before and it looks quite new as the hospital had hardly use them.i think is because they have got the newer version of ventilator and this model isn't that user friendly.pics:

( Ventilator servo 900C, looks old rite? xD )

( i had a hard time testing this machine. =.=' so many knobs...)

( oxygen cell... i think this one cost 3 digits ! 0.0)
