Symbols used in this user’s manual Important information is denoted by symbols in this user’s manual. Please ensure that you follow these instructions in order to prevent accidents, personal injury and mate- rial damage. In addition, the local accident prevention regulations and general safety regulations in force in the area of use must be observed.
Intended use The device "TREND III" is used for non-invasive pressure-controlled breathing support. The device is suitable for the treatment of obstructive sleep apnea in patients over 30 kg, especially when required by higher pressures and / or forms of respiratory failure. Therapy pressure is administered via a breathing mask, which must be equipped with a passive exhalation valve to ensure exhalation air discharge.

Combination of spontaneous breathing and controlled breathing (timed) - if the patient is capable of breathing on their own, the device works in S mode. If the patient is no longer able to breathe spontaneously, the device automati- cally enters T mode and ventilates the patient with the set frequency. The mode is switched to T mode after a set delay time lapses.
Side effects Administering respiratory therapy may result in undesired side effects. Causes for side effects can include improper therapy settings, incorrect use or non-compliance with clean- ing instructions. Generally the side effects go away after the cause has been eliminated. You will find suitable countermeasures for several side effects on see also page 107.
General safety instructions Risk of injury due to incorrect device settings! • Only qualified, trained, specialist medical staff under the specification of a physician may make adjustments to the respiratory therapy device. • Please be sure to check the therapy parameter settings after all servicing work.
Page 23
• For the operation of the device only the supplied power adapter may be used. Accessories or power supplies that have not been approved by HOFFRICHTER GmbH for this respiratory therapy device can lead to increased emission of electromagnetic radiation, reduced immunity to interference or increased patient leakage current.
Page 24
• Do not try to open the device or the power supply unit. Maintenance and repairs may only be performed by personnel authorised by HOFFRICHTER GmbH. • Do not touch live parts of the mains cable or power supply unit if defective. Replace a defective mains cable/power supply unit.
Installation requirements and transport Risk of injury due to insufficient air supply! The device must not be covered or positioned in a way that impairs its operation or function. Ö Do not place the device near curtains that prohibit the flow of cooling air and thus can cause the device to overheat.
Instructions before commissioning Risk of injury due to incorrect pressure measurement! Atomisation or humidification can increase the resistance of respiratory system filters. The operator must regularly check the respiratory system filter for increased resistance and blockages to ensure the therapeutic pressure is generated. •...

Explanation of symbols on the pressure bar Symbol Meaning Spontaneous breathing detected The device has detected spontaneous breathing by the patient. This triggered the inspiration trigger. The symbol will remain visible during inspiration and will shut off with the beginning of the expiration. Safety cycle active The patient is not breathing spontaneously.
• Never operate the device without the air filter. • Only use original HOFFRICHTER filters. • If the device was previously in an environment where the air temperature was not the same as in the new operating location, allow approximately 1 hour until the temperatures have evened out before commissioning.
Power supply The respiratory therapy device can be supplied with power via two different sources: • Mains connection via power supply unit • Battery operation with an external battery (optional accessory) The device can be connected to a power source continuously without posing a risk. Mains operation via power supply unit Connect the device to the mains supply as follows: A Socket B Mains cable C Power supply unit D DC plug E DC connector socket...

Connect Bluetooth adapter For the respiration therapy device to be connected to the "TRENDapp" patient app, a connection must be established via Bluetooth. A Bluetooth adapter B USB interface Figure 8: Connect Bluetooth adapter Plug the Bluetooth adapter into the USB interface. The connection is then automatically established between the adapter and the device.
System structure Danger of suffocation! Use masks and accessories with the device in order to ensure the therapeutic pressure is generated and to reduce rebreathing of CO to a minimum. Ö Only use masks with exhalation valves and suitable accessories. During respiratory therapy, the user must always be able to exhale.
Operation with humidifier AquaTREND III-NG Risk of infection due to germs! Condensation of water in the tube circuit can result in germ formation. Ö Increase the room temperature, reduce the heat output of the humidifier or use heated tubes. Please note: Before using the AquaTREND III-NG, be sure to read the instructions for use of the humidifier AquaTREND III-NG, including the safety and cleaning instructions.

Depending on the device type, TREND III features the following therapy modes: Mode CPAP APAP Device type TREND III CPAP • TREND III AutoCPAP • • TREND III BILEVEL S • • TREND III BILEVEL ST • • • • TREND III AutoBILEVEL S •...
APAP mode Automatic positive airway pressure Main features • Automatic adjustment of the therapeutic pressure (CPAP) • Pressure controlled • Independent respiration APAP mode is an extension to CPAP mode and offers the additional function of automatic adjustment to the therapeutic pressure (CPAP) within specific limits. When obstructive events are detected , the pressure is increased until the airways are almost completely open or the upper pressure limit has been reached.
T mode Main features • Pressure controlled • Device or patient triggered • Time controlled • Spontaneous breathing possible when trigger function enabled In this therapy mode, therapy is controlled exclusively by the device when the trigger function is disabled. Spontaneous breathing on the patient’s part is not possible. The ventilation period is based on the set frequency and a defined I:E ratio.
ST mode Main features • Pressure supported • Device or patient triggered • Flow controlled • Background frequency • Spontaneous breathing possible If the patient is capable of breathing on their own, the device works in S mode. If the patient is no longer able to breathe spontaneously, the device automatically enters T mode and ventilates the patient with the set frequency.
S mode Main features • Pressure supported • Patient triggered • Flow controlled • Device only responds to spontaneous breathing • Apnoea sound The transition from the EPAP to the IPAP is triggered by the patient’s spontaneous breath- ing alone. The pressure is decreased to the EPAP when the inspiration flow ends. In addi- tion, a safety frequency can be activated.
A-S mode (auto S mode) Main features • Automatic adjustment of therapy pres- • Flow controlled sure (IPAP and EPAP) • Device only responds to spontaneous • Pressure supported breathing • Patient triggered • Apnoea sound Auto-S mode is an extension of S mode and offers the additional function of automatic adjustment of therapy pressure (IPAP and EPAP) within certain limits.
