Operation
7.5.5 Volumeter
The volumeter is used for observing and assessing the ventilation.
The bar graph indicates the inspiratory and expiratory tidal volume.
At the end of the inspiration, the delivered tidal volume is displayed as a bar (1).
At the end of the expiration, the difference between inspiratory and expiratory tidal
volumes (6) is displayed.
The expiratory tidal volume is displayed next to the bar graph (3).
Using the volumeter (minute volume measurement)
1. Touch the Start button (2) to start.
The bar graph displays the individual measured spontaneous breaths in
segments (5). The summed volume (4) is displayed next to the bar graph.
2. Touch the Stop button (2) to stop.
3. To reset the volumeter and time display to zero, touch the Reset button (2).
The volumeter stops automatically after 60 seconds. The measured values are
displayed for 4 minutes and then deleted.
7.5.6 Low-flow wizard
Prerequisite: The device has the "Advanced gas monitoring" option.
The low-flow wizard displays bar graphs for the required fresh-gas flow and the
current total flow. Both bar graphs are to the same scale.
An evaluation of the total flow is displayed below the bar graph:
35553
35554
Evaluation Color Meaning
Too high Yellow The fresh-gas flow is possibly too high. If
the fresh-gas flow can be reduced, both
fresh gas and anesthetic agent will be
saved.
