Expiratory hold
SVS-5032_XX
Expiratory and inspiratory valves are closed
after the expiration phase is completed, for as
long as the fixed key is depressed, up to a
maximum of 30 seconds. Expiratory hold
provides an exact measurement of the end
expiratory pause pressure. It can be used to
determine total PEEP and, together with
inspiratory hold, static compliance. The
dynamic pressure is shown on the PEEP
numerical value.
Inspiratory hold
SVS-5031_XX
Inspiratory hold is activated by manually
pressing the fixed key. The maximum time is
30 seconds. The inspiratory and expiratory
valves close after inspiration. This function can
provide an exact measurement of the end
inspiratory lung pressure. It can be used
during x-ray or to determine Plateau pressure,
or, together with expiratory hold, calculate
static compliance.
