•
Check that nothing is limiting the patient's respiratory capacity.
•
If the problem persists, contact the Siare Service Centre or a
Centre authorised by Siare.
In this condition, the patient circuit + patient system presents a lower
resistance than expected or a higher compliance. This causes
insufficient ventilation pressure.
•
Check that the corresponding alarm limits are set correctly.
•
Check that the mask, endotracheal tube and patient circuit are not
in some way split, disconnected or connected wrongly. If this is
the case, eliminate the problem or replace them.
•
Check the correct settings of the patient's respiratory parameters
(according to the operative mode selected: Volume/Flow, Rate,
I/E, Trigger).
•
Check that the luminous PAW bar on lung ventilator (the airways
pressure curve) correctly follows the inspiration / expiration cycle.
•
Check that the patient circuit is connected correctly to the lung
ventilator and to the patient.
•
Check that the low pressure level is higher than the PEEP level
set. If not, increase it above the PEEP level.
•
If the problem persists, contact the Siare Service Centre or a
Centre authorised by Siare.
This alarm is activated when the respiratory rate value is higher than
the set value.
•
Check that the corresponding alarm limits are and the patient's
respiratory parameters are set correctly.
•
Check that the patient's respiratory parameters are set correctly.
•
Check that the sensitivity of the Trigger is appropriate to the
patient's physiological conditions.
•
If the problem persists, contact the Siare Service Centre or a
Centre authorised by Siare.
This alarm is activated when the respiratory rate value is lower than
the set value.
•
Check that the corresponding alarm limits are set correctly.
•
Check that the patient's respiratory parameters are set correctly.
•
Check that the lung ventilator operates correctly, checking the
airways pressure trend. If the lung ventilator operates correctly,
check the flow sensor and the correct connection of its cable.
•
Check that the mask, endotracheal tube and patient circuit are not
in some way split, disconnected or connected wrongly. If this is
the case, eliminate the problem or replace them.
