AD.A module
7-2 MORPHEUS MRI
7.1 Preliminary
• The correct setting of respiratory parameters and alarms limits, as
well as the selection of most suitable ventilation modality are not
described in the present manual.
• The choice of the operation modalities and alarm limits most
suitable for the physiological conditions and pathologies of the
patient under anaesthesia, it will be up to the User.
• For the safety of users and patients, before making operative the
MORPHEUS LT/MRI anaesthesia unit, you should have performed
a series of checks and inspections.
WARNING! Risk of injury to the patient
All the pictures and the examples shown in the present chapter have
the mere purpose of being an example and they do not make any
reference to real clinical cases.
WARNING! Risk of injury to the user / patient
• Consult the present User’s Manual
• Perform correctly all the foreseen preliminary controls (cfr. 6)
• Prepare the flowmeter box for operation
• Set the respiratory physiological parameters most suitable for the
patient’s clinical conditions.
• Set the logic and the limits of the alarms
Before submitting a patient to lung ventilation, it is good practice to:
• set the limit of airways pressure (high PAW at values not higher
than 30 cmH
2
O; this to avoid problems due to a wrong setting of
volume or respiratory rate (the pressure could be increased
whenever required by the pathology and the patient’s conditions);
• always verify the set oxygen concentration (FiO
2
) since high
concentrations could cause injury to the patient.
