Dräger Julian - Connecting the Breathing Hoses; Ventilating Children

Ventilating children
For tidal volumes VT of less than 200 mL:
● Use paediatric hoses.
Connecting the breathing hoses
1 Use Y-piece with connection for sample line.
● The inspiratory and expiratory
microbial filter 654 St should not be used – this
reduces the system compliance.
2 Connect 0.5 L breathing bag with socket to the
breathing hose with the large connection sleeves.
Slip the breathing hose over the angled socket.
Hang the 0.5 L breathing bag onto the hook.
3 Slip the breathing hoses with the large sleeves onto
the inspiratory and expiratory sockets and connect the
small sleeves to the Y-piece.
4 Connect the sample line to the Y-piece and water
trap.
● Set the sample rate to 200 mL/min, page 84.
If the measured gas is not recirculated:
● Increase the tidal volume VT in accordance with the
sample rate.
Volumeter function:
● Select »Child« scale, page 67.
To determine system compliance and leakage:
5 Firmly connect the Y-piece to the cone.
● Determine the system compliance and leakage,
see „Leakage test“ on page 48.
Set a correspondingly higher tidal volume VT in
accordance with the airway pressure PAW.
● Use PCV or IPPV ventilation mode.
