Portable and mobile RF communications equipment should be used no closer to any part of the NIM Vital, including cables, than the recommended separation distance calculated from the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter.

Recommended separation distance d = ( 6/E )√P

Where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer, E is the immunity test levels in volt per meter (V/m), and d is the recommended separation distance in meters (m).

Interference may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked with the following symbol:

Note: These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.

Recommended separation distances between portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the NIM Vital

The NIM Vital is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the NIM Vital can help prevent electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the NIM Vital as recommended below, according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

Stimulus artifact A monitoring term for an artifact created by stimulus voltage delivered to the patient, which is picked up as feedback either internally or externally to the monitoring equipment. It is normally small and does not impact monitoring but can, under certain conditions, be displayed and sounded on the monitor.

Stimulus artifact on-screen

On the monitoring screen, the stimulus artifact appears as an event (above or below threshold) which starts directly after the stimulus on the left side of the screen and proceeds for a duration into the EMG waveform detection area.

The level of the artifact is directly proportional to the stimulus delivery and cannot be EMG because nerve signals need time propagate.

Stimulus artifact sound The audio representation of a stimulus artifact. It is a high frequency sound similar to a cymbal (ti--tchi). This sound should not be confused with an EMG sound which sounds like a drum beat.

Stimulus rejection period Adjustable delay reading EMG after stimulation. In previous versions of the NIM, this was referred to as Stimulus Artifact or Artifact Delay.

False negative The condition where the probe is on nerve, but you do not get an EMG tone.

Tap test Tapping the electrode location may cause artifactual response on the NIM Vital. This test is not a reliable technique to indicate correct electrode placement/connection.
