2. Visually inspect the following at least weekly:
• The monitor for any damage or contamination
• The AC cord for exposed copper
• All cables, cords, and connector ends for damage or contamination
• All mechanical parts, including covers, for integrity
• All safety-related labeling for legibility and adhesion to the monitor
• All accessories (cuffs, tubing, probes, sensors) for wear or damage
• Documentation for current revision of the monitor
3. Do the following at least monthly:
• Test the speaker by selecting each alarm volume level and listening for the
different tones
• Visually inspect the mobile stand wheels for wear and faulty operation
• Visually inspect the mounting screws on the wall or cart for looseness and wear
Update settings, replace items, or call for service as necessary based on results of visual
