HERSILL OXYMO - SETTING THE EQUIVALENT FLOW

35
I CAUTION .
The equivalence between bolus and continuous flow is approximate. It is
recommended to adjust the equivalent flow required by each patient
monitoring their pulsioximetry.
6.9.3. Setting the equivalent flow
It can be adjusted within 0,5 and 7,5 L/min
Equiv
.
3 x
To increase or decrease the oxygen flow, press Plus
or Minus buttons. Each pressing rises or drops
0,5L/m. Once achieved the required flow, the flow
value along with the OK symbol blink for 5 seconds,
awaiting for confirmation pressing OK
button. If
confirmation is not completed within 5 seconds, the
device goes back to previous status.
In example it is showed a situation in which a flow of
3,5L/min
Equiv
is being supplied.
If pressed 3 times Plus button, the equivalent flow
will increase 1,5 L/min until reaching a total of
5L/min
Equiv
.
For 5 seconds the new flow and the symbol OK will
blink waiting for confirmation.
When pressed the OK button the raising of flow is
confirmed, disappearing the OK symbol and the
intermittency of flow.
Each time that a change of flow takes place, its value
and the time of change are kept and recorded in
memory.
