Instructions for use Primus Infinity Empowered SW 4.5n 93
Operation
If Pressure Support (exception: Proportional Pres-
sure Support) has been activated in order to sup-
port the patient’s spontaneous breathing efforts,
Primus Infinity Empowered will also take this set-
ting, as long as the software option has been acti-
vated. Volume Mode AutoFlow (Volume AF) will be
transferred into Volume Mode, if the software op-
tion is not activated.
Fresh-gas settings
Data for fresh-gas settings from devices without re-
breathing systems, will not be transferred to the
Primus Infinity Empowered.
Alarm limits and alarm activation
The numerical values are taken as is, for the follow-
ing alarm limits:
– minute volume high and low
– airway pressure high and low
– inspiratory O
2 concentration high and inspira-
tory O
2 concentration low
Whether or not these alarm limits will be valid, de-
pends on how Primus Infinity Empowered has been
configured.
