When changing from Pressure Support mode (op-
tional) to automatic ventilation modes:
The set PEEP,
∆
PPS, and Trigger are adopted. The
last values set are used for the other parameters
and the configured default settings in all other
cases.
Changing from manual ventilation Man.Spont. to
automatic ventilation modes:
The ventilation parameters correspond to the last
values set. When the ventilation mode (e. g., Vol-
ume Mode) is used for the first time, the pre-config-
ured default settings can be adopted. This also ap-
plies when the patient is ventilated in an automatic
ventilation mode (e. g., Pressure Mode) before
switching to manual ventilation Man.Spont..
NOTE
In minimum flow mode the following secondary ef-
fects may occur that affect ventilation of the pa-
tient:
– Leakage: Make sure that the breathing bag is
adequately filled.
– Increased condensation: Possible impairment
of the flow measurement and increased water
accumulation in the upper diaphragm of the
ventilator. Check the upper diaphragm on a
daily basis and empty if necessary.
– Difference between O
2 setting and inspiratory
O2 concentration: The O2 consumption of the
patient causes a difference between the set
parameter and measured value.
