4.3.3 MEASURED PARAMETERS
The following table describes each measured parameter. The measured parameters that display on the
Monitor Pressure screen only appear one at a time. The Setup Parameter Display setting on the Setup screen
allows you to choose which measured parameters you want displayed. The parameters below appear on both
the Monitor Pressure and the Monitor Parameters screens.
Setup
Parameter
Display
Select which measured parameters will display on the Monitor Pressure screen. Choose
from Leak, RR (Respiratory Rate), Min vent, or Vte.
Humidifier If the humidifier is attached to the device, you can select from 0 (off) to 5 in increments of 1
to enable or disable the humidifier setting. The default is 0 (off). This setting only displays if
a humidifier is attached to the device.
Reset
Blower
Hours
Select “yes” to reset the blower hours (e.g., to track device usage between patients).
Provider
Mode
Enable or disable provider mode. Selecting “on” will put the device in provider mode (and
the device will not automatically return to patient mode when the screen times out or you
select the Back option). Selecting “no” keeps the device in patient mode.
Pressure Displays the current patient pressure.
Leak The estimated leak is the average leak value for the last 6 breaths. The
display is updated at the end of each breath.
Respiratory Rate (RR) This is the average of the previous 6 breaths. If the mode supports
machine-triggered breaths, this display will be the total breathing rate
(spontaneous breaths + machine breaths). The display is updated at the
end of each breath.
Minute Ventilation (MinVent) The estimated Exhaled Minute Ventilation is based on the average of the
last 6 breaths. The display is updated at the end of each breath.
Exhaled Tidal Volume (Vte) The estimated Exhaled Tidal Volume is obtained by the integration of
patient flow. The display is updated at the end of each breath.
