Deactivating or activating neonatal flow

monitoring

WARNING
If flow and volume monitoring is deactivated,
ensure that an appropriate replacement moni-
toring function is available immediately. Other
settings may jeopardize the patient.
WARNING
No apnea monitoring takes place when flow
monitoring is deactivated. Use an indepen-
dent apnea monitoring.
CAUTION
Patient-triggered ventilation is not possible when
flow monitoring is deactivated.
Neonatal flow monitoring can be deactivated, e.g.:
– If the neonatal flow sensor has failed but cannot
be replaced immediately
– If medication nebulization is being performed
– To permit ventilation in the event of major tube
leakage
When changing to the NIV application mode,
Babylog VN500 deactivates neonatal flow monitor-
ing.
Patient-triggered ventilation is not possible when
neonatal flow monitoring is deactivated. The venti-
lation functions and ventilation monitoring are limit-
ed without neonatal flow monitoring.
