Setting Up For Patient Use
e. Activate the Non-invasive button when using a noninvasive
(e.g., mask) patient interface, or when ventilating with a large
airway leak.
f. Verify safe alarm limits.
6. Touch the Start Ventilating button to enter ventilating condition
and begin breath delivery.
7. Connect the breathing circuit to the patient.
8. Observe the patient’s condition and make sure the ventilation and
alarm settings are appropriate.
Setup & Calibration Menu
Refer to Foldout F-3 for a navigation map of GUI menus, including
Setup & Calibration Menu. See Foldout F-10 and F-11 to reference
the Setup & Calibration menu screens.
Circuit Check
Refer to Foldout F-5.
The Circuit Check is available in Standby condition after the e360 is
turned ON. It requires that the e360 be connected to a compressed
air gas source.
Perform the Circuit Check:
• Eachtimeyousetupthee360onapatient;
• Witheachbreathingcircuitorcircuitcomponentinstallation;
•
Any time breathing circuit/filter integrity or resistance is suspect.
The check is performed in two steps. The results of the Circuit Check
are logged in the Event History. Follow these instructions to perform a
Circuit Check:
1. Set up the breathing circuit and humidifier (including water)
as it will be used on the patient. The breathing circuit
system compliance that is measured will determine the
Compliance Compensation factor used during ventilation.
2. Cap off/occlude the patient connection of the circuit (don’t use a
test lung).
3. Touch the Circuit Check button to initiate the first step.
4. When the first step is complete, remove everything distal to the
circuit wye connector, then touch the Circuit Check button again
to complete the test.
5. When the Circuit Check is successfully completed, the screen will
show “Passed” and Compl Comp, Insp and Exp Resistance
values will be displayed.
6. If the Circuit Check is not successful, the screen will show
“Failed”.
