Monitors
In Nasal CPAP, all existing monitors will be suspended, except:
• Air Inlet Pressure (Air Inlet)
• Oxygen Inlet (O
2
Inlet)
• Gas Composition Monitor (F
IO

)
The following monitors are only available when the Rate is set to one or greater:
• Total Breath Rate
• Mandatory Breath Rate
• Inspiratory Time
• Exhalation Time
• I:E Ratio
• Peak Inspiratory Pressure
• Mean Airway Pressure
• PEEP
Nasal CPAP specific monitors
In nCPAP/IMV and when a rate of one or greater is set, the nCPAP level is calculated only over those periods when
control pressure is equal to the nCPAP setting (exhalation, following the end of the pressure decay as determined by
inspiratory rise control).
