Pressure Control Ventilation
Starting Pressure Control Ventilation
The following examples and illustrations describe
starting Pressure Control ventilation from the
present ventilation mode “Volume Control”:
1 Press the »Pressure Control« key. The LED
associated with this key starts blinking. It
remains blinking until the selected mode of
operation is confirmed.
2 The Waveform window is replaced by the venti-
lator settings window and a message that pro-
vides instructions to confirm the mode change.
z If the ventilator settings are correct, confirm the
mode change.
z If the ventilator settings are not correct, for each
parameter that needs to change, press the cor-
responding soft key, select the correct value,
and confirm the change. When the parameter
changes are completed, confirm the ventilation
mode change.
z After the mode change is confirmed, the
»Pressure Control« key LED switches from
blinking to constantly on, the ventilator switches
to the Pressure Control mode, and the wave-
form is restored.
The parameters that can be set for Pressure Con-
trol mode are shown in the adjacent table, along
with their adjustment ranges and factory default
values.
Due to compliance and resistance combinations,
the adjusted Freq Min might not applied accurately
in the Pressure Control Mode.
