The start settings for VT and RR influence the start
values of the alarm limits for MV high, MV low, and
VTi high:
MV high = VT x RR x (1 + offset);
minimal: 2.0 L/min
MV low = VT x RR x (1 – offset);
minimal: 0.3 L/min
VTi high = VT x (1 + offset)

Specify the default ventilation

Specify the tidal volume and respi-
ratory rate.

tory rate based on patient cate-
gory.

Specify the tidal volume and respi-
ratory rate based on ideal body
weight.
Set the tidal volume and the respi-
ratory rate for the supporting
points 5; 15; 75; 100 kg (11; 33;
165; 220 lbs).
For calculated values for ideal
body weight values that lie
between these four supporting
points, the start settings for tidal
volume and respiratory rate are
interpolated linearly. For ideal
weight values lying outside these
supporting points, calculation pro-
ceeds with the values of the high-
est or lowest supporting point.
The "offset" value corresponds to the respective
offset setting for automatic alarm adjustment. The
"offset" value can be set in the System setup >
Alarms > vertical tab Autoset limits.
The following applies in volume-controlled modes:
VTi high = 130 % x VT
