Setting Up For Patient Use

The Mechanics data set will show Plateau Pressure, Total PEEP,
Static Compliance, Inspiratory and Expiratory Resistance. If the
maneuver does not succeed in providing a stable static pressure
(patient effort is present) or other exclusion criteria is not met, the
related calculated values will not be displayed.
See “Save Feature” and “Download Feature” on following pages for
details on saving Extended Function screen files.
P0.1 Measurement
While ventilating, the P0.1 measurement function is available for
assessing the patient’s respiratory drive. This measurement can be
used as one of the tools to predict weaning success from ventilatory
support.
This function is enabled via the P0.1 button on the Technical Screen. It
is available in all modes and breath types. It is not available when Non
Invasive Ventilation (NIV) is activated.
Ensure that the trigger setting is optimized before performing this
function. The P0.1 measurement is the difference between the
pressure at which a patient effort (trigger) is detected and the pressure
100 milliseconds later.
To Perform a P0.1 Measurement
Refer to Fold-out drawing F10 for a sample of Technical Screens.
1. Press the Setup & Calibration menu button on the control panel.
2. Touch TECHNICAL.
3. Touch P0.1 to enable the function. The screen will change to
the Main Screen.
4. Touch START P0.1 to initiate the measurement. (Figure 4-4)
The measurement result will be displayed after the first patient
trigger is detected.
5. Touch SAVE to store the measurement result and the screen
image. The measurement will be logged in the Event History
and the screen image will be stored in the Screen Files List.
6. Touch START to resume normal plotting on the screen.
