Patient Valve - Weinmann VENTIlogic LS Instructions For Use Manual

Also follow the instructions for use of the VENTIclick or, if using valve ventilation, the
instructions for use of the corresponding humidifier. For valve ventilation we recommend
humidifiers HC850 or HC550 from Fisher & Paykel with the corresponding patient circuit.
Note:
• The therapy device automatically starts with VENTIclick activated if it was
activated the last time the device was used. VENTIclick can be switched on and
off at any time if you briefly press the humidifier key
activated, the green LED next to the humidifier key comes on.
• If you press the humidifier key
therapy device does not switch on this function.
5.10 Humidifier for patient circuits with patient
valve
VENTIclick cannot be used in conjunction with valve ventilation. We recommend humidifiers
HC 850 or HC 550 from Fisher & Paykel with the corresponding patient circuit for this case.
Follow the associated instructions for use.
5.11 LIAM (insufflation)
5.11.1 Information about the function
LIAM stands for Lung Insufflation Assist Maneuver. LIAM is a pressure-controlled
hyperinsufflation maneuver with the aim of administering an increased tidal volume which
can be used in all ventilation modes except CPAP and SIMV. LIAM can be used to support
coughing or for alveolar recruitment (similar to ventilation on sighing). In the case of
neuromuscular diseases, in particular, LIAM can be useful in expanding both thorax and
lung. With regular use, there can accordingly be a positive impact on the course of vital
capacity.
