SECTION A
INTRODUCTION Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a licensed medical practitioner.
INDICATION FOR USE The Thumper CPR System is used to perform Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) on adult patients and only adult patients in cases of clinical death as defined by a lack of spontaneous breathing and pulse. The most current version of the American Heart Association Guidelines does not recommend the use of mechanically performed CPR on infants and children. CONTRAINDICATION There are situations where CPR is not the appropriate method of intervention. Familiarity with accepted medical practices in your area is very important. Always consult local protocol for the proper integration of the Thumper into your arrest management regimen of care. INTRODUCTION With the purchase of the Thumper® CPR System, you join thousands of other health care professionals worldwide who benefit from the many advantages of mechanical CPR. These benefits are well recognized by key professional groups. The Advanced Cardiac Life Support Manual published by the American Heart Association describes mechanical CPR devices as follows: "... they can 1) standardize the technique of CPR, 2) eliminate user fatigue, 3) free trained persons to participate in the delivery of ACLS when there is a limited number of rescuers, and 4) assure adequacy of compression when a patient requires continued resuscitation during transportation." Page 1
The Thumper CPR system provides consistent, optimal CPR support for cardiac arrest patients even under conditions which may hinder the effectiveness of manual techniques. It is designed to perform in exact accordance with the AHA's Guidelines for CPR and Emergency Cardiac Care and will achieve these standards continuously and without tiring. The Thumper provides advanced, definitive therapy to patients without the need to continuously perform manual CPR. The Thumper is currently in use worldwide with a variety of EMS and hospital applications. It can be found on all types of EMS vehicles including fire rescue vehicles, mobile trauma and ACLS units. The Thumper is frequently used on both fixed and rotary wing rescue and transport aircraft because of the specific difficulties associated with performing CPR in the air. Hospital emergency departments, critical care and intensive care units also rely on mechanical CPR to assist them in their lifesaving efforts. In all applications, the Thumper provides proven advantages in resuscitation efforts. It allows all members of the emergency team better access to the patient, gives uninterrupted CPR support through all aspects of the code, and permits precise control over all parameters of CPR. THE THUMPER MODEL 1007 MANUAL The purpose of the Operations Manual is to explain the use, care, and user maintenance of the Thumper Model 1007, and not to teach cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Proper use of the Thumper requires a thorough understanding of this Manual, appropriate training, and adequate practice with the unit. This Manual contains important information on all aspects of operating and maintaining the unit. After a complete review, use it as a guide to practice with the Thumper until completely confident and comfortable with its operation.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS
THUMPER CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATOR The Michigan Instruments, Inc. Thumper® Model 1007 is a portable, automatic cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) medical device which has been in use since 1964. The present Thumper® Model 1007 is functionally the same as the previous models 1003, 1004, and 1005. The 1007 model has been redesigned in appearance and form to be smaller, lighter, and conform directly with American Heart Association (AHA) CPR guidelines. The function of the Model 1007 remains identical to the previous models. The Guidelines for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation and Emergency Cardiac Care published in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) in 1992 describes automatic mechanical chest compressions as an aid to performing CPR. Advantages cited include: · · · · · · · · standardizes the technique of 5:1 compression-ventilation ratio; standardizes the 50% chest compression ratio; produces hemodynamics comparable to (proper) manual CPR; delivers optimal rate of compression and depth of compression; eliminates variables as (inadequate) rescuer technique and fatigue; Thumper can remain on patient during defibrillation; trained rescuers are freed to participate in the delivery of ACLS when needed; and, assures adequacy of compressions and ventilation when a patient requires continued resuscitation during transportation.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION The Thumper® Model 1007 system provides consistent CPR support for cardiac arrest patients under conditions, which might otherwise hinder the effectiveness of manual techniques. It performs external cardiac compression in conjunction with synchronized ventilation in conformance with AHA CPR guidelines. The Thumper® Model 1007 is a mechanical "automatic" CPR device that can be set up in seconds. It is totally oxygen powered and electrically insulated, allowing it to be freely and safely used in conjunction with routine patient
Page 4
monitoring and defibrillation procedures. The Thumper® Model 1007, once correctly applied over the patient's sternum, is designed to measure the patient's anterior-posterior (A-P) chest diameter and "prescribe" sternal deflection at 20% of that diameter. Thumper® Model 1007 placements extend into all types of EMS and hospital applications. FireRescue, Mobile ICU's, and fixed and rotary wing aircraft illustrate some of the EMS applications. Within the hospital, utilization of the Thumper® Model 1007 can be found in the Emergency Department, Coronary and Intensive Care Units, and Cardiac Catheterization Labs.

Monitoring and defibrillation No need to remove Thumper from possible with Thumper in place patient Very little maintenance required A cost effective device THUMPER® COMPONENTS AND ACCESSORIES The Thumper® Model 1007 consists of four major components: (1) (2) (3) (4) the Thumper 1007 Backboard; the Time Cycled Constant Flow Ventilator; the Arm and Column Assembly, which includes all system components; and, the Mobile Oxygen Carrier/appropriate O2 wall access adapter.
A description of each component follows. Backboard The Thumper® Model 1007 Backboard is intended for either manual or mechanical CPR. It is designed to provide a firm, non-rebounding surface upon which CPR can be performed, with a slight hyper extension of the neck facilitated for upper airway management. Two separate sets of straps help immobilize the patient and secure the 1007 Board to a stretcher or spineboard. Please see Figure 1 for display of Thumper Model 1007 Board.
Figure 1 - Thumper Model 1007 Board.
Page 6
Arm and Column Assembly The arm and column assembly positions the piston and massager pad correctly over the patient's sternum. It is designed to provide a sternal deflection percentage based on the patient A-P chest diameter. Sternal deflection is nominally set to 20% of the A-P diameter. The depth of each chest compression is easily monitored using the markings on the dome surrounding the piston. The column also serves as a storage tank that holds sufficient oxygen to drive the Thumper for several seconds during an oxygen source change. Time Cycled Constant Flow Ventilator The Thumper Model 1007 has a Patient Demand Valve (PDV) attached to the arm/column assembly and an associated tidal volume control (No. 3) which provides a fully integrated ventilator. This ventilator is an oxygen powered, time cycled, constant flow unit, intended for emergency and transport situations. The delivered tidal volume can be set from 400 ml to 1200 ml. The ventilation rate is preset to be synchronized with the Thumper chest compressions to provide ventilation on every 5th upstroke. If the compressions are stopped, the ventilator rate remains fixed at 13 breaths per minute. The ventilator inspiratory to expiratory ratio (I/E ratio) is fixed at 1:2. It is pressure limited to 55 cm H2O of airway pressure. Please see Figure 2 for display of the Arm/Column Assembly, which also houses the ventilator.

Page 7
MOC/ Mobile Oxygen Carrier, or Appropriate Wall Access Adapter The Thumper® Model 1007 is equipped with an oxygen input hose, used to connect the unit to a source of compressed medical oxygen. It incorporates an adapter on each end and a check valve to retain the oxygen during a source change. Wall adapters designed to allow access to the various and most common hospital (and ambulance) pipeline O2 systems are available. The Mobile Oxygen Carrier is a dual oxygen tank carrier, which provides constant pressure and high flow source gas for the Thumper® Model 1007 and up to two additional outlets. It is designed to operate the Thumper® Model 1007 whenever the unit is in use (for example, when transporting an arrest patient between an ambulance and a pipeline, wall accessed O2 system within the hospital). One of the MOC's three outlets is designed to accept the Thumper Model 1007 Oxygen Input Hose, while two outlets of O2 connection configuration remain available to the rescuer to supply other devices. It will accommodate both "D" and "E" size tanks. Please see Figure 3 for display of the Mobile Oxygen Carrier.
Figure 3 Mobile Oxygen Carrier (MOC)

SET UP AND OPERATION
Before setting up and using the Thumper, there are several important precautions that must be observed at all times. 1. The Thumper must only be used in cases of clinical death as defined by lack of spontaneous breathing and pulse. 2. Manual CPR should be started on the victim immediately. Do not postpone CPR while waiting for the Thumper. The Thumper can be easily set up and put into service without interrupting manual CPR delivery. 3. The Thumper may be used in all cases where manual CPR would normally be initiated. However, there are situations where CPR is not the appropriate method of intervention. Familiarity with accepted medical practices in your area is very important. 4. Personnel certified in manual CPR must always be present to monitor the patient during Thumper operation in the unlikely event of a mechanical failure Throughout the Set Up and Operation Section, it is assumed that two rescuers are available and the Thumper is being used with the Thumper Backboard (with straps) and the Mobile Oxygen Carrier. NOTE: The Thumper can also be used by a single rescuer at the scene of cardiac arrest because it is designed to be setup and put into operation very quickly. The conversion from manual to mechanical CPR should be done as soon as possible. With practice, this can be accomplished in a matter of seconds.
ADULT PATIENTS
Always begin manual CPR initially, utilizing the Thumper® Model 1007 Board or a spine board as patient support. Affix the Thumper® Model 1007 Board using the supplied strap to either the long spine board or to whatever firm surface will be
Page 13
utilized prior to being placed upon a stretcher. Using the Thumper® Model 1007 Board will facilitate the rapid application and set-up of the Thumper® Model 1007 and, as would be with any spine board or firm surface, provide a firm support for the CPR effort. 1. "Log roll" the patient into position, taking care to keep the cervical spine immobilized, as one would when applying any spine board. 2. Center the patient onto the Thumper® Model 1007 Board by centering the patient's shoulders across the uppermost part of the board. When using the 1007 Board in cases of suspected C-spine injury always support the patient's head in a neutral position. 3. With the patient now properly centered upon the Thumper® Model 1007 Board, affix the straps from over the shoulder and under the arm, buckling and then tightening the straps. Do not place retention straps or other restraints over the patient's abdominal area. Tight garments around the abdomen should be removed or loosened. 4. Begin manual CPR Manual CPR should be started on the victim immediately. Do not postpone CPR while waiting for the Thumper.
THUMPER MODEL 1007 DEPLOYMENT 1. Thumper® Model 1007 set-up: a. Remove the Thumper® Model 1007 assembly from the case. b. Attach the oxygen supply line from either the portable O2 supply (dual O2 system), or the wall outlet. If using the portable O2 system, turn one of the two tanks to the `ON' position.
Page 14
c. Connect the breathing hose and face mask (if the mask is to be utilized). Please see Figures 10a 10c for suggested Thumper set-up.

Figure 10c
Figure 10a Removal of Thumper 1007 from case Figure 10b Connection of Oxygen to Thumper Figure 10c Connection of breathing circuit to ventilator Submersion of the Thumper® Model 1007 in fresh, ocean, or pool water will cause infiltration of water into internal critical parts, corrosion and eventual operational failure. This also applies to inadvertent injection of water, as from a "wet" oxygen cylinder. Infiltration of sand or other foreign material into the Thumper® Model 1007 is likely to cause operational failure. 2. Thumper® Model 1007 application: a. When a pause for ventilation occurs during the manual CPR effort, grasp the Thumper® Model 1007 assembly, with one hand at the base of the column, and the other at the arm, close to the arm locking knob. b. Insert the base of the column into the mounting system on the Thumper® Model 1007 Board.
Page 15
c. With the Thumper® Model 1007 assembly now locked into place, loosen the arm locking knob and lower the arm over the chest, locating the massager pad over the sternum, as you would for the heel of your hand when performing manual CPR. Please see Figures 11a 11c for Thumper application.

Figure 11c Loosen the arm locking assembly and lower the arm over the chest until the top of the piston reads `0' on the dome. BEFORE turning the Number One control to RUN, make certain the No. 2 and No. 3 Control Knobs are turned fully counter-clockwise. 3. Thumper® Model 1007 activation: With the RUN/STOP in the `STOP' position: a. Make sure No. 2 is rotated fully counterclockwise, and b. No. 3 is turned to 400 ml. c. Ensure the pressure indicator reads "green" indicating adequate O2 pressure. d. Activate the Thumper Model 1007 by first turning (No. 1) to RUN, and
Page 16
e. Rotate clockwise COMPRESSION DEPTH (No. 2) until sufficient compression depth is demonstrated by viewing the Piston at eye level. Increase the chest compression depth until the top of the Piston reaches the number on the Dome corresponding to the reading on the column. With the Thumper® Model 1007 in use, care must be taken to prevent kinking or collapsing of the input hose by wheels of carts, or ambulance cots, or other mechanical interference. The Thumper® Model 1007 is designed to operate on compressed medical grade oxygen, at an input pressure of 50-90 psi. Always verify proper input pressure as described herein, taking care to handle the oxygen cylinder and its' regulator assembly(ies) as you would for any other pneumatic medical device. 4. Thumper® Model 1007 Ventilator Activation: a. Next, rotate clockwise VENTILATION VOLUME, (No. 3), in accordance with AHA Guidelines, and/or local protocol, to desired ventilation level. b. Apply the breathing hose to the patient via mask or ET tube. c. The ventilator contains a Pressure Relief Valve that is set at 55 cmH2O. When airway pressure exceeds 55 cmH2O, an audible alarm will be heard from the ventilator. The user must monitor the patient airway and identify the cause for the increased pressure. Appropriate responses must then be taken. During ventilation, the operator must maintain constant attention to observe the patient's chest rise and maintain an open airway. If the maximum pressure limit is reached, the pre-set tidal volume may not be delivered to the patient. Inspiratory time will remain constant, however, and an inspiratory hold will be maintained with no additional volume being delivered until the ventilator cycles to the expiratory phase.
Page 17
Should the blue rubber diaphragm blow outward from the alarm module's air relief ports, discontinue the use of the Thumper® Model 1007 PDV / Breathing Hose Assembly. Contact Michigan Instruments, Inc. for service at 1-800-530-9939.
An audible pressure limit alarm is located in the Patient Valve Assembly. This alarm sounds whenever the patient airway pressure approaches the designed pressure limit of 55 cm H2O. The Pressure Limit Alarm will continue to sound during the inspiratory phase until either the airway pressure decreases or the ventilator cycles off to begin the expiratory phase. 5. Procedure for periodic pulse checks and/or defibrillation: To perform pulse checks, or to perform analysis with an AED (and/or defibrillate manually), simply turn the No. 1 control to the STOP position. This will only interrupt compression performance, while ventilation continues at 13 breaths per minute. To resume compressions, simply turn No. 1 to RUN. The same depth of compression will continue. When the Thumper® Model 1007 is used in conjunction with automatic external defibrillators (AED's), or other therapeutic devices which must utilize an ECG signal, interruption of the cardiac compressions as described herein may be required to avoid the ECG motion artifact associated with cardiac compressions. The Thumper® Model 1007 is electrically insulated and should cause no interference during routine cardiac monitoring or manual defibrillation. However, conductive fluids or gels may provide stray current paths. It is advised operators should not touch the Thumper® Model 1007 during defibrillation.
Page 18
TO REMOVE THE THUMPER FROM THE PATIENT: A. B. C. D. Turn Control #1 to STOP. Turn Control #2 fully counterclockwise. Turn Control #3 fully counterclockwise. Disconnect the O2 Supply Hose first from the Thumper O2 Supply Connector by pressing the release button. Then disconnect the connector from the oxygen source by pulling the collar back from the connector to release it. Caution: Disconnecting the oxygen source end first may not allow the device to properly vent the internal pneumatic ports, possibly causing them to bind and not allow the device to cycle.
Note: Upon detaching the O2 Supply Hose from the Thumper®, an abrupt and loud release of oxygen from the Column buffer will occur. This is intentional and required to purge the Thumper® of its reserve oxygen and not to be interpreted as a leak. E. Remove the Breathing Hose/Non Re-breathing Valve from the patient and the PDV. Discard the Breathing Hose. Discard the Non Re-breathing Valve if a single use type. F. Loosen the Arm Lock Lever and raise the Arm on the Column high enough to clear the patient. Tighten the Arm Lock Lever. G. Remove the Thumper from the Backboard. H. Remove the Backboard from the patient. I. Clean and inspect the Thumper per the recommended Shift Check (Daily or after each use).
Page 19
SECTION D
STORAGE AND SHIPPING STORAGE Careful storage of the Thumper is important. It should be stored in a location that is easily accessible and in a manner that does not allow dirt, debris, or moisture to get into the unit or its accessories. We recommend that it be stored fully assembled in the Thumper Carrying/ Storage Case. For storage during normal transportation, the Thumper Case offers maximum protection for the unit. It provides convenient storage for the basic components of the system and allows quick access to the Thumper at an emergency site. A Thumper that is stored assembled should be placed on a "crash cart" or other surface where it will be used. The Arm should be positioned at the top of the Column and locked into place. Coil the Breathing Hose and Oxygen Input Hose on the base for easy access. SHIPPING If a Thumper must be shipped for any reason, a factory carton with protective foam inserts must be used. Replacement cartons are available from Michigan Instruments, Inc. Do not ship the Thumper CPR System in the Carrying/Storage Case! Shipping the Thumper in any container other than the factory carton with foam inserts will void the warranty and may damage the unit!

Dry assembly using approved standard methods such as hot air drying. 7) After drying, carefully examine the parts of the Patient Valve Assembly. Discard any cracked or damaged parts and replace as necessary. 8) Prior to reassembling the entire unit, inspect all lines and tubing filters for contaminants, replacing as necessary. 9) Reconnect the tubing assembly to the fittings. 10) Check the exhalation valve assembly to assure the flapper valve is not twisted and the locating bosses are properly positioned. If the flapper valve is twisted or the locating bosses are not properly positioned, the Patient Valve Assembly will not function properly. Always make sure the valve is flat and properly seated.

11) Immediately after cleaning, reassemble the Patient Valve Assembly and re-connect to the Thumper® Model 1007. Turn on the Thumper® Model 1007 and allow the ventilator to cycle several times to blow out any liquid which may have entered during the cleaning process. 12) Test the unit for proper function Cleaning the Non- Rebreathing Valve: Clean after each use. All components of the Non-Rebreathing Valve are autoclavable. To disassemble, unscrew the valve inlet from the outlet and remove the lip valve. The individual components can now be cleaned. If autoclaving systems are not available, you may also sterilize via Cidex or other bactericidal solution. Be sure to rinse and dry all parts thoroughly before reassembling. After cleaning, inspect all parts for damage or breakage. Replace any damaged or broken or broken parts. If disposable non-rebreathing valve is used, discard after each use.) AVOIDING CONTAMINATION Contamination can enter the system through the Oxygen Input Hose. When filling oxygen tanks, be certain that proper procedures are followed to prevent foreign matter from entering the tanks.
TROUBLESHOOTING - ROUTINE FUNCTIONAL CHECK A complete functional check of the Thumper should be made at regular intervals. The frequency will depend on specific circumstances and should be determined by the user. However, a functional check after each use and a monthly functional check using a CPR mannequin or a Test Spring (Michigan Instruments, Inc. P/N T106) is recommended.

STERILIZATION GUIDELINES Breathing Circuit Sterilization The Breathing Hose, facemask, and NRV are disposable. These items are intended for single-use only. The Pressure Relief Valve and Hose Adapter may be sterilized according to the following outline (as well as reusable type NRV's, if used): 1. Autoclaving: Items may be autoclaved or flash autoclaved at normal temperatures for this method of sterilization. 2. Gas Sterilization: Items may be gas sterilized in ethylene oxide, using temperatures recommended by the sterilizer manufacturer. 3. Chemical Disinfectants: Items may be sterilized using any standard colorless chemical sterilization compound recommended for plastics and rubber is satisfactory. NOTE: Iodine disinfectants will stain these items, therefore, Cidex is preferred. NOTE: If an alternate, reusable breathing hose, NRV, or face mask is used in the Breathing Hose Assembly, follow the original manufacturer's recommended procedure for the cleaning and sterilization of these items. Thumper Sterilization Standard colorless chemical disinfectant solutions may be used for "wipe down" of external surfaces. The entire Thumper unit may be gas sterilized using a normal sterilization cycle. Make sure that all control knobs on the Thumper are in the ON position. Following gas sterilization, aeration must take place for 24 hours, followed by one hour of operation on 50 psi oxygen. This may be reduced to 3 hours by using a forced aeration cabinet followed by 15 minutes of operation.
