Safety information on breathing circuits and additional components

Additional components in the breathing circuit or
components that deviate from the standard breath-
ing circuit may significantly increase the inspiratory
and expiratory resistance values above the require-
ments imposed by standards (for example, bacteria
filters, HME). The device cannot directly monitor re-
sistance in the patient connection.
For this reason:
 Check the patient state and the volume values
of the device more frequently.
 Observe the instructions for use for the filters
and components.

Prepare the bed and wall holders as directed by the
instructions for use for the bed and wall holders
(9053157).
CAUTION
Increased compliance or resistance
Additional components in the breathing circuit
such as bacterial filters or HME increase the dead
space and result in an increase of compliance or
resistance.
When using additional components, particular
care and monitoring are required.
