1 General information
The Intelligent Panels allow the operator to select various
elements for display, to include:
• Global Dynamic Lung/Haemodynamics with haemodynam-
ics-lung interactions (refer to section 8.2 and the
INTELLiVENT
®
-ASV manual) and show the current status of
the lung and the activity and interaction of the patient's
lungs and haemodynamics
• Vent status
The Vent Status displays the patient’s level of ventilator depen-
dency. The Ventilation Horizon, Map and Guide allow the oper-
ators to view and keep track of the patient’s situation and the
controllers’ actions. The data window provides this information
in a numeric form. The device’s trending function lets you view
up to 96 hours of previously collected data. You can freeze
trend waveforms, real-time waveforms, or loops and use the
cursor measurement function to determine a value at
a selected point.
The Ventilation Map provides additional trending to get an
overview in time of changes of physiological input and venti-
lator actions (modifications of setting) while in automatic ven-
tilation. Additionally you can use the optional P/V Tool Pro
®
.
The P/V Tool Pro
®
is an automated function to measure and
display the inflation and deflation pressure-volume curves of
the lungs for determination of the lower and upper inflection
points and the deflation limb derecruitment point.
The device’s monitored data is based on pressure and flow
measurements collected by the HAMILTON MEDICAL proximal
flow sensor, placed between the Y-piece and the patient and
shows:
• Oxygen measurements by integrated oxygen monitor
•Proximal CO
2
measurement by the mainstream and side-
stream CO
2
sensor
• Measurement of arterial O
2
saturation (SpO
2
) by one or two
pulse oximeters
Optionally the pressure measurements can come from an auxil-
iary pressure sensing site (Paux) or from an esophageal pressure
measurement.
