Operating the Device 57
E-Slope
(only point 2 BILEVEL ST20/25 in modes BILEVEL S, T and ST)
The E-Slope determines the time of pressure decrease from IPAP to EPAP.
• Level 1 = 10 hPa/s
• Level 2 = 20 hPa/s
• Level 3 = 40 hPa/s
Selection of E-Slope by the physician
1. First set IPAP, EPAP and I-Slope.
2.
Use the selection keys and to set the desired value. Confirm your setting
by pressing the enter key .
