2.4.5 Monitoring of ventilatory parameters

2-16

Based on the ventilator parameters set by the User and on the patient's
characteristics, the lung ventilator is able to monitor and measure a
series of values necessary for the patient's clinical evaluation.

At the top of the screen, there is a led indicator that displays the
pressure inside the airways in real time. The measured and monitored
values are updated after each breath of the patient.
The data in the images below refer to VC/VAC operating mode with
standard PRP, and they are only informative, they do not refer to real
clinical cases.
The light bar indicator (with scale from -20 to 80 cmH 2 O),
displays the pressure inside the airways during the respiratory
phase, in real time.
The value displayed is the maximum measured pressure inside
the airways (cmH 2 O).
The displayed value shows the positive pressure at the end of
the expiration: the measurement unit is cmH 2 O.
The User can control if the ventilator is able to reach and keep
the PEEP pressure level set, using this value.
The displayed value shows the real respiratory rate (number of
breaths per time unit) taking into consideration for the
calculation any spontaneous activity.
