The lung icon is particularly meaningful for quick patient breathing
monitoring.
In fact in case of patient's spontaneous activity (Trigger), the lung icon turns
to yellow and if the "Low Pressure" alarm value set has not been exceeded
the icon turns red.
The lungs turn green during inspiration only if the PAW exceeds the "Low
Pressure" alarm value set.
If the "Low Pressure" limit
value is not exceeded,
the lungs icon turns red.
