LEAK TEST
Based on known and calculated data (flow, pressure and time), the
software calculates the parameters displayed at the end of test.
The value of the compliance obtained during the Leak Test is used for the
"compensation of dead space" function ( e.g. 0,9 x cmH 2 O measured ).
Range of values accepted by the Leakage Test
Patient Circuit Compliance
Leak (ml/min)
WARNING !! Risk of lung ventilator failure.
The Leak Test is not overcome when the pressure within the pneumatic
circuit does not arrive to 30 cmH 2 O.
