O)
4. Oxygen concentration (%)
5. I:E ratio / Insp. time
6. Inspiratory rise time (%/s)
7. Trigg. Flow / Trigg. Pressure
SVS-5035_XX
The ventilator delivers a pre-set Tidal Volume.
The pressure is automatically regulated to
deliver the pre-set volume but limited to
5 cmH
2
O below the set upper pressure limit.
