Internal calculations
IBW In kg, calculated based on
Patient height and Gender
(see Section 5.2)
MinVol (target) In l/min, target minute volume is
calculated as:
IBW (in kg) x NormMinVent (in
l/kg/min) x %MinVol/100 where
NormMinVent is the normal min-
ute ventilation. For details, see
the INTELLiVENT-ASV manual.
fTotal In b/min, calculated on the basis
of Otis’ equation
VDaw 2.2 ml/kg IBW
Vt (target) MinVol/ f(target)
ASV monitor
Target values (numerical) MinVol, Vt, fTotal
Current achieved values
(numerical)
MinVol, Vt, fTotal
Status of patient (numerical) fSpont, fControl, Pinsp
Graphics display (curve) f versus Vt, target value, actual
value, safety boundaries
Alarms
All alarms are functional
except apnea alarms
See Section Alarms
Special ASV: Check hi press limit, ASV:
Cannot meet target
