Mean airways pressure
It shows the average calculated pressure for the airways: the
unit of measurement is cmH
Pause pressure
It shows the pause pressure: the unit of measurement is
cmH O.

When the inspiratory pause activates, the lung ventilator
maintains the airway pressure constant (it maintains a pause
pressure) for a certain amount of time of the inspiratory time,
defined by the clinician (INSP PAUSE %).
The static conditions allow the lung ventilator to calculate the
breathing mechanics parameters.
Inspiratory peak flow
Use the flow sensors installed on the inspiratory line to measure
that maximum inhaled flow value (measured in l/min) and to
view it on the screen.
For this value there are no alarm limits but it can be used to
gather information on the ventilation status.
