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.
