Flow pressure nomogram
The Infant Flow SiPAP LP system is subject to a direct
relationship between the controlled gas flow and airway
pressure. For example, 9 LPM of gas flow provides
approximately 5 cmH

O CPAP.
Tip: Manual breath: The high pressure flowmeter must be
set to deliver a manual sigh/breath during CPAP. The boost
in pressure delivers for the time high that was entered during
the set-up process.
