Circuit Type
There are two circuit types you can select:
•
Passive
•
Active PAP
The Passive circuit uses the a passive exhalation device. The Active
PAP circuit uses an active exhalation device with a proximal air
pressure sensing connection.
When using the Passive circuit, the ventilator displays estimated
patient pressures based on the resistance of the standard patient
circuit (Whisper Swivel II with 1.8 meter tubing). Adding accessories
to the patient circuit (humidifier, water trap, etc.) may cause an
increase in circuit resistance and cause the device to display slightly
higher pressures than what is actually delivered to the patient.
With the Active PAP circuit, patient pressure is measured directly and
is not affected by any change in circuit resistance.
