Using the Astral device
Continuously displayed monitors
During ventilation, the Bottom bar displays the current measures for VT, MV, Resp.rate, Ti, % Spont Trig,
and Leak. For a detailed description of the Bottom bar refer to Getting to know the Astral device (see
page 6).
During ventilation, the Pressure bar displays real-time airway pressure, PEEP and PIP. For a detailed
description of the Pressure bar refer to Getting to know the Astral device (see page 6).
Both the Bottom bar and Pressure bar remain visible from other screens. This permits critical ventilation
parameters to be continuously monitored while performing other tasks on the Astral device.
Note: The ventilation measures on the Bottom bar will be hidden while an action request is displayed. For example
Apply/Cancel.
