Ventilation functions
For a detailed description of the ventilation modes
and the extended settings see chapter Principles of
operation. Abbreviations see page 23.
Application modes
– Non-invasive ventilation (NIV)
– Invasive ventilation (Tube)
Ventilation modes
Volume-controlled ventilation:
–VC-SIMV
– VC-AC (optional)
Pressure-controlled ventilation:
–PC-BIPAP
–PC-AC
Support of spontaneous breathing:
– SPN-CPAP/PS (VG)
Additional settings for ventilation
– Apnea ventilation
– Trigger
–Ramp
– Volume Guarantee
– AutoAdapt
Breathing circuits
Breathing circuit with leakage valve (LeakV) for
mask or tube ventilation:
– Automatic leakage compensation
– MVi and VTi correspond to the calculated inspir-
atory tidal volume of the patient.
– VC-SIMV, VC-AC and SPN-CPAP/PS (VG)
control the calculated inspiratory tidal volume of
the patient.
Breathing circuit with expiratory valve (ExpV) for
tube ventilation:
– No leakage compensation
– MV and VT correspond to the applied volume.
– VC-SIMV, VC-AC and SPN-CPAP/PS (VG)
control the applied volume.
Monitoring functions
The following parameters are monitored:
– Airway pressure Paw
– Inspiratory minute volume MVi
– Applied minute volume MV (without leakage
compensation)
– Apnea alarm time Tapn
– Disconnection time Tdiscon
– Mean airway pressure Pmean
– Respiratory rate RR
– Leakage minute volume MVleak
The following measured values are displayed:
– Peak inspiratory pressure PIP
– Mean airway pressure Pmean
– Positive end-expiratory pressure PEEP
– Inspiratory minute volume MVi, MV
– Inspiratory tidal volume VTi, VT
– Respiratory rate RR
– Leakage minute volume MVleak
– Adjustment time in AutoAdapt Tadpt
The following waveforms are displayed:
–Flow
– Pressure
The following is displayed as a bar graph:
