3. Connect patient connection tube to swivel adapter.
Apparatus settings:
1. Frequency approx. 100 CPM
2. Inspiratory time 30%
3. Driving pressure 1 bar
4. PIP alarm 40 mbar.
5. Pause pressure alarm (PP-Alarm) 40 mbar
6. SIPL limit OFF
Press the “start/stop” key to start the ventilator.
Humidification:
To prevent the trachea from desiccating the humidifier should be set to 100% output (=Level 8). When
in doubt occasionally check the trachea using a fibre optic bronchoscope.
Remarks:
Occasionally perform blood gas analysis to ensure sufficient oxygen saturation and CO2 elimination
and modify settings based the results. The CO2 elimination efficiency increases with increased driving
pressure.
The breathing bag should periodically be checked for proper mixed gas filling from the Jet ventilator.
Do not allow the breathing bag to collapse as this would result the patient being insufficient supplied
with mixed gas for spontaneous respiration.
Diagram:
The following pressure-time diagram shows the pressure pattern with CPAP superimposed Jet ventila-
tion. However, this curve will only be displayed on the Jet ventilator monitor with the proximal pressure
sensing line connected.
