Therapy modes 33
BILEVEL S, T AND ST
(only point 2 BILEVEL ST20)
General
In BILEVEL S, T and ST you can independently set
the pressure during inspration (IPAP) and expiration
(EPAP). Selecting an an optimal slope can facilitate
patients therapy compliance. A precise adjustment
may further convey the feeling of natural respiration
without any delay.
BILEVEL S
In BILEVEL S the transition from inspiration pressure
(IPAP) to expiration pressure (EPAP) is triggered once
the patient starts to breath. When the inspiration fl ow
ends, the pressure drops to the EPAP. In addition, a
backup frequency (Backup freq) can be activated. In
the event of an apnea patients ventilation will be con-
tinuously restored at fi xed parameters:
• IPAP, EPAP
• I-Slope, E-Slope
• Backup frequency
The parameters will be set by the physician.
