Bias Flow
1 Set the e360 ventilator to Volume Control SPONT by
pressing “Volume Control“ button until Spont LED is lit, and
then pressing “
Accept” button to acknowledge.
2 Set the calibration analyzer to air flow measurement.
3 Verify that the calibration analyzer measures a flow rate of 2.5
to 3.5 L/min, record the reading.
Inspiratory Time
1 Keep the test lung unattached. Place the calibration analyzer
at the patient circuit Y-Piece.
2 Set the calibration analyzer to inspiratory time measurement.
3 Set the e360 ventilator to Pressure Control A/CMV by
pressing “Pressure Control” button until the A/CMV LED is
lit, and then pressing “Accept” button to acknowledge.
4 Set Pressure Limit to 30 cmH
2
O.
5 Set t Insp to 0.25 seconds. V
erify the value of t
I
displayed on
Numeric screen, the inspiratory time reading measured by
the calibration analyzer and the
t Insp setting are within
tolerance of ± 0.05 seconds among each other. Record the
readings on the
Test Record.
6 Set t Insp to 0.50 seconds. V
erify the value of
t
I
displayed on
Numeric screen, the inspiratory time reading measured by
the calibration analyzer and the
t Insp setting are within
tolerance of ± 0.10 seconds among each other. Record the
readings on the Test Record.
Respiratory Rate
1 Set the calibration analyzer to breath rate measurement.
2 Set t Insp to 0.25 seconds and attach test lung to patient
circuit Y-Piece.
3 Set Resp Rate to 5 b/min. Verify the value of ƒ tot displayed
on Numeric screen, the breath rate reading measured by the
calibration analyzer and the
Resp Rate setting are within ± 1
b/min. Record the readings on the Test Record.
4 Repeat step 3 with Resp Rate setting of 20 b/min.
5 Set Resp Rate to 10 b/min.
