  • Page 2: Function Check

    Function Check Hazardous therapy if device connected to patient during function check! If the device is connected to the patient during the function check, this might lead to therapy posing a risk as a result of excessively high pressures or unsuitable ventilation volumes.
  • Page 3 You can perform the function check with the following test lungs: • Testing bag WM 1453 • Testing bag WM 1454 • EasyLung for WEINMANN Emergency WM 28625 Requirement • The device is disconnected from the patient. • The rechargeable battery is fully charged.
  • Page 4 1. Select the “Function check” menu item. Follow the on-screen instructions. 2. Prepare the device: • Connect the breathing circuit to the device. • Connect the test lung to the breathing circuit. • Connect MEDUtrigger. 3. Select “Start”. 4. If you want to test the oxygen supply: Select “Yes”.
  • Page 5 oxygen supply rate (5-15 l/min). 6. Select “Start”. 7. Stop the oxygen supply and close the oxygen cylinder. This test item can be skipped if no oxygen source is available. 8. Select “Next”. 9. If an alarm tone sounds: Select “Yes”.
  • Page 6 10. If the alarm LED flashes red: Select “Yes”. 11. Press all the controls except the On/ Off button one after another. 12. If the MEDUtrigger is not displayed function check: Activate MEDUtrigger in the Operator menu and repeat the function check. 13. Proceed with the hygiene filter in accordance with the following table: Color Action Green...

Proceed with the device in accordance with the following table: Display Meaning Action Device ready for use Function check Use device without restriction. passed.
  • Page 8 From now on, you no longer need to spend time considering which tidal volume and which respiratory rate (Vt) is best suited to your patient. With MEDUVENT Standard, you can now start ventilation even more accurately and quickly. When you enter the patient’s height and gender, your ventilator automatically calculates all the ventilation...
  • Page 9 1. Switch on ventilator. 2. Select “New patient”. 3. Enter patient’s gender and height and 4. Confirm with “Next”. select ventilation mode. 5. The device shows a preview of the 6. The device shows current ventilation ventilation parameters calculated. If parameters. necessary: Adjust ventilation parame- ters.
  • Page 10 Using presets and working within guidelines In the Start menu, you can set the patient's height under the “New patient” menu item. This section explains how the ventilator automatically calculates the ideal tidal volume using height and gender. Ideal body weight (IBW) is calculated from stated height (X) as shown below: •...
  • Page 12: Manual Mode

    Resuscitation with Manual Mode 1. Switch on ventilator. 2. Select patient group and switch to “Manual” mode. Alternatively, select “New patient”, set the patient’s gender and height and select “Manual” mode. Note: It is possible to switch to “Man- ual” ventilation mode from any ventila- tion mode at any time.
  • Page 13 4. Once the airway has been secured, switch to IPPV ventilation via the menu button and “Ventilation mode”. 5. Ventilate continuously in “IPPV” mode. The device shows the parameters for IPPV ventilation. Info: If the set pMax is reached during CPR, MEDUVENT Standard restricts inspiratory pressure.

  • Page 16 Anesthesia Induction (RSI) with Manual Mode 1. Switch on ventilator. 2. Set the patient’s gender and height and select “CPAP” or “CPAP+PS” ventilation mode for pre-oxygenation. Confirm with “Next”. 3. Select a low PEEP for pre-oxygenation of a spontaneously-breathing patient. If possible, use of pressure support (PS) should be considered.
  • Page 17 5. Following successful pre-oxygen- ation, switch to “Manual” mode. 6. Auscultate tube position by getting MEDUtrigger trigger manual mechanical breaths. In an emergency, perform mask ventilation using MEDUtrigger. 7. Once the airway has been secured successfully, perform continuous man- datory ventilation, switching to “IPPV” mode to do so.
