Section 1 — Introduction
Description The 506DN patient monitor is a compact vital signs monitor that
measures heart rate, blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) and non-
invasive blood pressure (NIBP). Heart rate is measured primarily by
the plethysmographic waveform but when the oximeter is not is use,
heart rate is determined from the blood pressure data using an
oscillometric method that measures during inflation.
Intended Use The 506DN monitor is intended to monitor physiological parameters

of patients within clinical care settings and can be used in transport. It
is intended that the user is a professional health care provider.
Physiological data, systems alarms, and patient data analysis are
available to the care provider from the monitor.
The user is responsible for the interpretation of the monitored data

that is made available. Physiological data should be reviewed by
qualified clinical personnel prior to any medical intervention.
The monitor is designed to be used with only one patient at a time.

The monitor (including accessories) is capable of monitoring a full
range of patients from neonate to adult.
Criticare Systems, Inc. eQuality™ 506DN Service Manual Page 1-1

Section 1 —Introduction
Non-Invasive Blood The 506DN monitor uses ComfortCuff® technology to determine

Pressure (NIBP) non-invasive blood pressure by means of oscillometry. The
oscillometric method detects volume displacements within the artery
and senses pressure variations within the blood pressure cuff during
inflation. The monitor uses cuffs ranging in size from neonate cuffs to
adult thigh cuffs.
ComfortCuff® Technology ComfortCuff technology measures NIBP while the cuff inflates.
Consequently, a measurement is obtained more quickly and with
less discomfort than with monitors, which measure NIBP during
cuff deflation.
Description of NIBP The NIBP cuff begins to inflate at the beginning of the NIBP
Measurement measurement cycle. As the cuff pressure approaches the diastolic
pressure of the patient, the cuff pressure waveform begins to indicate
the pulse waveform. The cuff pressure at this point is equal to the
patient’s diastolic pressure, which is stored by the monitor.
As cuff pressure continues to increase, the pulse waveform (as

measured from BP cuff pressure fluctuation) becomes stronger
reaching its maximum at the patient’s mean arterial pressure
(i.e., when cuff pressure = mean BP). The monitor stores this value
as mean pressure.
As cuff pressure increases further, it approaches the patient’s systolic

pressure, and the cuff’s pulse waveform decreases in amplitude. The
cuff pulse waveform disappears at the point where cuff pressure is
equal to the patient’s systolic pressure.
When the monitor determines that the cuff waveform has decreased
to zero amplitude, it stores the cuff pressure value as the systolic
pressure, and releases the pressure from the cuff. This typically
occurs at about 10 mmHg over the patient’s systolic pressure. The
cuff then rapidly deflates.

NIBP Clinical Testing This device was clinically tested per the requirements of EN 1060
and Accuracy and AAMI SP-10. The NIBP module as installed in the 506DN patient
monitor has been tested to meet the performance specifications
listed in this manual.
Cuff Inflation and The maximum cuff inflation rate is 15 mmHg/second. The software
Pressure Protection limits inflation to 300 mmHg adult, 150 mmHg pediatric or 150 mmHg
neonate. A secondary circuit limits maximum possible cuff pressure
to 330 mmHg in adult/pediatric mode and 165 mmHg in neonatal
mode. Cuff pressure is allowed to remain above 300 mmHg for a
maximum of two minutes.
The monitor automatically deflates the cuff if the time limit is violated.
The monitor contains hardware protection for overpressure
conditions, pressure transducer failures, and microprocessor and
pump control circuit failures.

Heart Rate Heart rate measurement is determined primarily by the

plethysmographic (SpO2) waveform. When the oximeter is not in use,
heart rate is determined from the blood pressure data by using an
oscillometric method that measures during inflation. The unit of
measurement is beats per minute.
Under conditions where the plethysmographic based heart rate and

oscillometric heart rate are both beyond the detectable limits of the
monitor, no heart rate is reported. Also, no heart rate is reported
where the amplitude of the plethysmograhic waveform and
oscillometric waveform are beyond the detectable limits. The
monitor reports error messages if valid measurements cannot be
obtained. The monitor continues to look for valid SpO2 based heart
rate measurements and attempts a second NIBP measurement if
the first attempt fails.

DOX™ Pulse Oximetry The 506DN patient monitor comes with Digital Oximetry (DOX)
Measurement (SpO2) technology to measure blood oxygen saturation (SpO2).
Definition Hemoglobin exists in the blood in several forms:

• Oxygenated (Oxyhemoglobin)
• Reduced (Deoxyhemoglobin)
• Dsyhemoglobins (Carboxyhemoglobin and Methemoglobin)
In the monitor, SpO2 (pulse arterial saturation) is the ratio of

oxygenated hemoglobin to the sum of oxygenated hemoglobin plus
hemoglobin which is available for binding to oxygen, as expressed in
the following formula:
oxyhemoglobin
percent oxygen saturation = x 100
oxyhemoglobin + deoxyhemoglobin
Dyshemoglobins, such as carboxyhemoglobin and methemoglobin,

are not directly measured and therefore are not factored into
the measurement.
DOX™ Digital Oximetry The monitor does not use analog circuitry for signal processing.
Digital signal processing in the microprocessor results in lower
noise from circuitry components, resulting in a cleaner signal and
better performance under low perfusion conditions. There is also
improved rejection of noise from the patient and environment, due
to the availability of the “true,” unfiltered sensor signal for digital
signal processing.
Method The digital pulse oximeter measures oxygen saturation and pulse rate
using the principles of spectrophotometry and plethysmography. The
sensor is completely non-invasive, and there is no heat source that
could burn the patient.
The pulse oximeter sensor contains two types of LEDs. Each type
emits a specific wavelength of light. Since oxygenated hemoglobin
and deoxygenated hemoglobin absorb light selectively and
predictably, the amounts of these two compounds can be determined
by measuring the intensity of each wavelength that passes through
the measuring site.

The light from the LEDs shines into a pulsating vascular bed. A
photodetector located opposite of alongside the LEDs measures the
intensity of each wavelength transmitted through the monitoring site.
The light intensity is converted to an electrical signal, which is input to
the monitor. The effects of skin pigmentation, venous blood, and
other tissue constituents are eliminated by separating out the average
pulsating absorption data.
SpO2 is calculated with every pulse and averaged with the results
from previous pulses to arrive at the current numeric display value.
The display is updated at least once per second with the numeric
values that were calculated during the intervening period.
The plethysmographic pulse wave is not auto-gained. The

amplitude display of the plethysmographic pulse is proportional
to the pulse volume changes occurring in the tissue illuminated by
the SpO2 sensor.
SpO2 Clinical Testing All Criticare oximeter’s (DOX-compatible) have SpO2 calibration
and Accuracy tables which were originally generated by monitoring desaturated
human patients or volunteers and matching their displayed SpO2
value to the value determined by sampling arterial blood and
measuring functional SaO2 with a clinical laboratory grade multi
wavelength optical oximeter (i.e., CO-oximeter). The final SpO2
calibration curve was then generated based upon numerous patients’
data over the range of 40 to 99% SaO2. All accepted data were taken
from patients with dyshemoglobin (i.e., carboxyhemoglobin or
methemoglobin) concentrations near zero.
This oximeter is a two-wavelength device, which is calibrated to

measure functional SpO2 only when dyshemoglobin concentrations
are near zero. The accuracy specifications of this device will not be
met with high concentrations of dyshemoglobins. Significant
concentrations of carboxyhemoglobin results is a higher displayed
SpO2 value than is actually present in the patient.
SpO2 clinical accuracy validation to CO-oximeter SaO2 readings was

performed for the sensors using a DOX-compatible monitor.
The personal demographics of the study participants for the SpO2

clinical accuracy validation include a mix of adult males and
females from 18 to 45 years of age. All were healthy during the
course of the study. Physical characteristics and skin tone were by
chance with a mix from slight to stout and light to dark. Clinical
testing for neonatal participants was conducted per U.S. FDA
recommended clinical protocols.

Section 3 — Theory of Operation
System Architecture The 506DN monitor’s circuitry consists of a Main Board, LCD Module,
SpO2 Module, and NIBP Module.
The Main Board, SpO2 Module and NIBP Module are considered the
Main Module. This module is located in the monitor’s font bezel. The
LCD display mounts to the main board, which in turn mounts to the
front bezel.
Affixed to the front bezel is the membrane switch and overlay that
connects directly to the main board.
The rear housing contains the 6-Volt lead acid battery and AC-to-DC
Power Supply.
The lead acid battery is contained in a compartment accessible with a

tool. The design of the compartment prevents the 506DN circuitry
from being exposed when the battery compartment is opened. Thus
the 506DN does not require recalibration or functional testing due to
a possible tampering of critical electronics.
External connectors consist of:

• An RS-232 COM port
• AC (Mains) Power
• NIBP ComfortCuff (pneumatic)
• SpO2 Sensor
Electrical isolation of patient connections observes EN60601-1. On

this end, isolated DC power supplies are contained by the DOX SpO2
technology. Additional isolation is incorporated through a medical
grade AC-to-DC power supply conforming to 4000VAC isolation and
an isolated supply for the external COM function. This supply
conforms to 4000VAC isolation.

Section 3 —Theory of Operation
Module Architecture
Main Board The hardware design of the 506DN monitor relies on multiple
(pn 91410A001) serial communication channels wherein the Main Board functions
as the hub. Signal and display processing is off-loaded to the various
vital signs technology modules, the Display Board, and the LCD
Module. The Main Board collects the vital signs information, then
stores, formats, and outputs the data either electronically through
the external serial port or in hardcopy via the optional internal
printer module.
There is a power supply section of the Main Board wherein regulated

DC voltages are generated for various logic and analog functions as
well as the battery charging function.
NIBP Module This module connects to the Main Board. The upgraded NIBP
(pn 95597A005) algorithm firmware installed conforms to EN1060.
DOX SpO2 Module This module is the Criticare Digital Oximetry circuit. The DOX Module
(pn 91391A002) provides electrical isolation of 1500VAC minimum through power and
serial interface connections. The DOX SpO2 sensor connector is
mounted directly onto the Module.
