pliance of the breathing circuit.
The volume losses must be manually cor-
rected. For additional information, see chapter
"Volume losses during ventilation"
on page 144.
WARNING

The risk of dead space ventilation is increased
when setting small volumes.
Observe the patient very closely.

less that the set volume.
