5.2.7 Recommended values
The values recommended here for Tidal
volume, Resp. rate and Minute volume are
based on the patient category selected and
the patient data entered.
Values that are out of range for the patient
category are highlighted in yellow.
5.2.8 Use recommended values
When the patient data fields have been
completed, the suggested ventilatory
parameters are presented.
The 'Use recommended values' touch pad
may then be either automatically checked or
empty depending on settings made in Service
& Settings/Startup configuration/Ventilation &
gas. See section Startup configuration on
page 174.
If the recommended ventilatory values are
satisfactory, either press 'Accept' if the touch
pad is pre-checked,or check it and then press
'Accept'. The direct settings at the bottom
right of the control panel are then updated
accordingly.
This can be done when the system is in
standby. When it is running, it can only be
done if using manual ventilation (MAN) but
NOT when using automatic ventilation (AUTO).
See section MAN/AUTO ventilation switch on
page 84. This restriction also applies if the
Volume setting in Service & Settings/Startup
configuration/Ventilation & gas is set to Minute
Volume. See section Startup configuration on
page 174.
