Figure 1-1. Closed-loop ventilation
The device incorporates three main closed-loop control inputs:
• Automatic minute volume
• PEEP
• Automatic oxygen adjustment
As the situation requires, the operator can control them manu-
ally or automatically. This means the operator can let the
adjustment controllers in the device determine oxygenation
and ventilation for the patient solely on the basis of input from
the sensors, or can intervene and determine treatment param-
eters derived from a clinical judgment.
