Ventilator dependent patient warnings
WARNING

An alternative means of ventilation should always be available for ventilator
-
dependent
patients. Failure to do this may result in patient injury or death.

A ventilator dependent patient should always be monitored by trained personnel.

For ventilato
r dependent patients, in case of failure of the principal ventilator and using
a stand-alone ventilation module (without docking station) as a backup device, the
backup ventilation module must be used immediately by pressing on the module keypad
buttons without inserting it in the docking station of the faulty ventilator. In any case of
failure, contact your technical assistance immediately after ensuring the patient is safely
ventilated with the backup device and wait for further instructions.

Ensure that the home AC mains supply and connections are safe and comply with the
applicable regulations. For ventilator dependent patients, consider using a back-up
power system. For safe and adapted solutions, refer to Battery Pack (EOBAT9) user
manual and to the section “Connecting two power sources with Y cable” below.

For ventilator dependent patients in mobility we strongly recommend not to use internal
battery as primary power source. It is mandatory to use an additional power source such
as EOVE Battery Pack (EO-BAT9) when the patient is moving away from an external
power source (AC or DC).

If a “BAT. CHARGE FAIL” or a “BATTERY FAIL” alarm triggers, the ventilator internal
battery needs to be changed. For ventilator dependent patients, contact your technical
assistance immediately after ensuring the patient is safely ventilated with the backup
device and wait for further instructions.
