5.12.3 ADDITIONAL parameters monitoring

5-44
This graphic configuration is active in H area and it is used to
monitor additional respiratory parameters (concerning the displaying
procedure please refer to the previous paragraph).
Mean airways pressure
Pause pressure
Inspiratory time
It indicates the mean airways pressure: the
measurement unit is cmH
It indicates the pause pressure: the
measurement unit is cmH
When the inspiratory pause is enabled, the
ventilator maintains a constant airways
pressure (i.e. it maintains a pause
pressure) for a fraction of the inspiratory
time defined by the user (INSP PAUSE %).
The stationary conditions allow the
ventilator to calculate the parameters of
the respiratory mechanics.
It indicates the duration of the patient's
inspiratory time: the measurement unit is
seconds.
This value represents the total inspiratory
time and also includes the inspiratory
pause time if enabled.
The value depends on the breathing rate
parameters and the I:E ratio (except in the
SIMV operative mode).
Example: setting RATE = 15 and I:E=1:1
gives an inspiratory time of 2 seconds.
