selection of the most suitable settings. The 10.4" touch screen display, ventilator settings
and the measured data, as well as several functions, allowing the clinician to asses
patient's condition immediately; you can also select and view the trend of the pressure,
flow, volume, flow/volume loops, pressure/volume, pressure/flow, over time.
An immediate information management system allows the clinician to set the alarms, collect
data concerning the trend of the operating parameters (TREND) and the ventilator EVENTS
log using the MENU. The same system allows the User to set the patient type (neonates,
children, adults), load or erase the PATIENT DATA and in case of need, to load
automatically the DEFAULT PARAMETERS of the lung ventilator.
The output signals (from the, pressure, flow and oxygen sensors) are
filtered by an R-C circuit from the input circuits. This particular electronic
filtering is used to eliminate disturbances before the signals themselves
are processed by the microprocessor.
Before using the lung ventilator, the clinician should check the operation
of all these sensors in order to avoid any incorrect assessments of
patient's condition.
