      Stacy WilcoxAug 28, 2025
      If the NCPAP/Pres Low is too low (CPAP less than 2 cmH2O below the set level for 15 seconds, or less than 1.5 cmH2O at any time), it could be due to a setting change, circuit disconnect/reconnect, or a circuit leak. Push the Alarm Mute button for 3 seconds to silence and reset alarm limits. Reset alarm limits after a setting change or patient circuit disconnect/reconnect. Check for leaks in the patient circuit.
