Operating the iVent201 – Setting Modes and Parameters
68
Once the iVent
201
has successfully completed the O.V.T., the
patient circuit and ventilator are ready for use.
If the O.V.T. fails to complete successfully:
a) Verify that both Flow Sensor
tubes are properly and snugly
connected to the correct luer
ports on the front of the iVent
201.
(Remember: two lines go to the
patient Wye connectors, and the
blue line goes to the Expiratory
Valve Control connector.)
Repeat the test.
b) If the O.V.T. fails once again,
then replace the patient circuit.
c) If after replacing the patient
circuit, the O.V.T. still fails, try
re-calibrating the ventilator. If
calibration fails to correct the
O.V.T. failure, immediately
remove the ventilator from
service and contact a Versamed-
approved technician.
