TECHNICAL AND MAINTENANCE MANUAL
Graph VENTILATOR
Final Control Neumovent Graph Ventilator
PCV (Pressure Control) Mode
Programming: PCV = 10 ± 2 cm H2O
The rest is programmed with <CTRL> + <ENTER>
Check: Peak Pressure Reading = 10 ± 2 cm H2O
Expired VT reading = 500 ml ± 8%
Select PSV
a) Program Backup (Backup Ventilation).
Apnea = 15 sec.
SIMV = ON
Confirm other backup parameters with <CTRL> + <ENTER>
b) Program PSV.
Pressure = 15 cm. H2O
Peep = 0
ENTER
Trigger the test lung.
Check the mode operation (with the graph generated on the screen).
Check Peak Pressure = 15 cm +/- 2 cm H2O
Do not trigger the test lung.
At 15 sec., the apnea alarm should become activated.
The ventilator turns to backup ventilation.
Check if it returns to PSV ventilation.
Programming: f= 6 per minute. Inspiratory time = 1 sec.
The other parameters remain the same as for the initial programming.
Check the operation of the ventilatory mode.
Programming: f= 6 per minute. Inspiratory time = 1 sec.
PCV = 20 cm H2O PSV = 15 cm H2O
Check the operation of the ventilatory mode.
