NOTE
Nebulization may cause fluctuation in the patient’s FiO2.
8.5 O2↑
The O2↑function means to deliver oxygen with concentration higher than the normal level.
When the O2↑key is pushed, the ventilator starts the O2↑ function. The O2↑indicator
lamp is illuminated and the screen prompt message filed displays the remaining O2↑ time.
O2↑ is active for a maximum of two minutes. When O2↑ is functioning, the [O2%]
parameter in the parameter setup quick key field displays the currently set oxygen
concentration.
When two minutes of O2↑ expires or the O2↑key is pushed again, the ventilator
terminates O2↑ function. Removing the breathing hoses during O2↑starts the suction
function.

When O2 supply pressure is low, this function is not initiated, and is terminated
automatically if this function is initiated already.

The ventilator provides a suction procedure to help the patient to complete suction.
1. Push the Menu key and select [Procedure].
2. Select [Suction] to access the suction procedure screen and activate the suction function.
When the suction procedure is activated, the system performs O2↑function and
prompts [O2↑ Active. Please disconnect the patient after adequate O2 is
delivered.]. If the patient hoses are not disconnected within the specified time, the
suction procedure will end automatically.
After the patient hoses are disconnected, the system prompts [The patient is
disconnected. Please reconnect the patient after suction is completed.] and
stops ventilating the patient. In this case, manual sunction can be applied to the
patient.
After manual suction applied to the patient, re-connect the patient hoses. The
system performs O2↑function and prompts [O2↑Active. The patient is
reconnected.].
To stop an active suction procedure during O2↑, select [Exit] or push the O2↑key.
