6.2.4 Patient circuit test
The test measures the compliance and
resistance of the patient breathing system.
The patient circuit resistance is automatically
measured to determine if the ventilator
maintains the specified accuracy with the
connected breathing circuit.
1. Connect the complete breathing system
to be used on the patient. If an active
humidifier is used, it must be filled with
water.

Important: When blocking the end of
the complete breathing system, make
sure there is no leakage. Leakage will
affect the circuit compliance
compensation calculation.
2. Block the end of the complete breathing
system and follow the on-screen
instructions. The circuit compliance and
resistance are automatically measured.
Go to Compensate for Circuit compliance
(see page 108).

3. Unblock the end of the complete
breathing system and follow the on-screen
instructions.
