Disconnection A disconnection or a considerable leak in the patient circuit will result in inadequate pressure building up.

  • Page 131 Theory of Operation Functional Description of Pneumatics Gas Supply PEEP Compressed gases Air and O flow through filter 1 and PEEP control valve 18 generates a control pressure on the non-return valves 2 to the pressure regulators 3, the control side of expiratory valve 20, which regulates which produce a constant system pressure for both PEEP in the patient circuit.
  • Page 132 Ventilation Modes Ventilation Modes Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) Babylog 8000 plus keeps airway pressure at the PEEP/CPAP level. The patient may breathe sponta- neously at all times. Inspiratory flow should be set significantly higher than what the patient needs for spontaneous breathing in order to avoid fluctuations of airway pressure or increased work of breathing.
  • Page 133 Only half of the set continuous flow, e.g., goes into the patient's lungs with values of C This effect of "co-ventilating" a patient circuit is shared by all ventilators. Babylog 8000 plus therefore features a flow sensor at the wye to measure true inspiratory and expiratory tidal volumes.
  • Page 134 Theory of Operation Ventilation Modes Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation (SIMV) SIMV combines synchronized ventilation with spontane- ous breathing. Different from A/C, not each and every spontaneous inspiration is supported, but only as many as needed to ventilate a patient with the set ventilator rate.
  • Page 135 Theory of Operation Ventilation Modes Pressure Support Ventilation (PSV) PSV works essentially the same as A/C. In addition to ventilator rate, the patient will also control the duration of ventilator breaths via flow: A mandatory inspiration is terminated when flow has decreased to 15 % of maxi- mum inspiratory flow, at the latest after the set inspiratory time T In order to allow the flow to decrease during a mandatory...

  • Page 137 Extensive laboratory tests have demonstrated that for all circuits encountered in the field, the inspiratory limb is responsible for approximately 70 % of total circuit resis- tance. With this estimate, Babylog 8000 plus calculates - 0.7 < P > where < P >...
  • Page 138 With an uncuffed ET-tube, breathing gas will frequently escape to ambient between trachea wall and tube. The Babylog 8000 plus flow sensor is located in the wye, i.e. before the leak. During inspiration, breathing gas will be lost after measurement, during expiration, it will be lost before being measured.
  • Page 139 Theory of Operation Ventilation Monitoring Babylog 8000 plus therefore determines the average leak flow from the difference between inspiratory minute venti- lation * and expiratory minute volume * , the latter being displayed as minute volume. Scaled to * he leakage...
  • Page 140 (TC = R . C) /C lung overdistension index according to [1] Babylog 8000 plus first saves all measured values for (t), Flow(t), and V(t) for a breath up to a length of 5 s. 120 data points per second are sampled. The data is evaluated and the results are displayed.
  • Page 141 Theory of Operation Ventilation Monitoring An on-screen warning symbol is used to indicate a possible condition of calculated values being affected in such fashion. This means that r is less than 0.95, the leak rate in the breath just evaluated is more than 20 %, or that considerable spontaneous breathing is detected.
  • Page 142 The ratio of breathing frequency and tidal volume, RVR = f / VT can help assess the outcome of weaning the patient from mechanical ventilation [1]. Therefore the Babylog 8000 plus calculates and displays RVR. In clinical practice, tidal volumes often fluctuate considerably between spontaneous breaths and mechanical ventilation cycles.
