Instructions for Use Fabius MRI SW 3.n 97
Operation
Volume Control Ventilation
Ventilator Compliance Compensation
Ventilator compliance compensation is continu-
ously applied during Volume Control so that the
tidal volume delivered to the patient corresponds to
the V
T setting. Ventilator compliance is determined
during the leak and compliance test performed from
the Standby mode (see “Leak/Compliance Test” on
page 136). To have compliance compensation work
accurately, it is important that the patient hoses
used during the leak/compliance test match the
type of hoses used during the procedure.
Starting Volume Control Ventilation
The following examples and illustrations describe
starting Volume Control ventilation from the present
ventilation mode “Pressure Control”:
1 Press the »Volume 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.
NOTE
When the ventilator settings for Volume Control
cause the ventilator to operate at its limits of per-
formance, it is not possible for the Fabius MRI to
apply compliance compensation. If the ventilator's
performance limit is reached, it is not possible to
increment the V
T setting via the Volume Control
Settings window.
