Table 5: Alarm Default Parameters for Pressure Ventilation for 10 to 70 kg
Alarm
Parameter
Weight (kg)
10 15 20 30 40 50 60 70+
Volume Limit
Reached, mL
200 300 400 600 800 1000 1100 1200
High Pressure

30 for all weights
All other alarm default parameters are the same as for Volume Ventilation (See
Table 1, Table 2).
SHOW GRAPHS
The Show Graphs function in the Main Menu is the gateway to the iVent
TM
201’s
waveforms package. You can perform the following:
ï‚· View real-time ventilation waveforms in a variety of scales
ï‚· Scan through patient ventilation waveforms for up to 7.2 hours
NOTE The Waveforms package is an optional feature and not available on all units.
The iVent
TM
201 defaults to displaying the waveform graphs while ventilating.
The Main Menu allows the operator to choose to display only the waveform
graphs (default), or to split the view between waveform graphs and Trends,
Loops, or Mechanics.
To access the graphs:
1. Select Menu on the Main screen to view the Main Menu.
2. In the Main Menu select the Show Graphs option and press the control-knob.
The Graphs are displayed, as shown Figure 97.
NOTE If the iVent
TM
201
display is split between Graphs and an additional parameter
-- Trends, Loops or Mechanics, then it returns to display only Graphs.
The Graphs view displays Pressure and Flow waveforms. The zero coordinate is
colored blue. The pressure limit is displayed as a dashed green line. The high
pressure alarm setting is shown as a dashed red line.
BROWSE WAVEFORMS
You can browse forwards or backwards to examine the patient ventilation history
(up to 7.2 hours).
