AFETY ONSIDERATIONS 1.1 Operator Safety For correct and effective use of the product it is mandatory to read and to observe all INSTRUCTIONS, WARNINGS, and CAUTION statements in this manual. If the product is not used as instructed, the safety protection provided may be impaired. ARNING Indicates a potentially harmful condition that can lead to personal injury.
The software provided for the Lung Solution is designed for LLEAP version 6.3 or greater for the SimMan® manikins and 6.7 or greater for SimMan® ALS, SimBaby™ and Nursing Anne™ manikins. Please contact IngMar Medical, LLC (sales@ingmarmed.com) for details on future integration into additional Laerdal manikin simulators.
ASL 5000™ L NTRODUCTION TO THE OLUTION The ASL 5000™ Lung Solution creates a direct integration between the ASL 5000™ Breathing Simulator and Laerdal SimMan®, SimBaby™ and Nursing Anne™ manikin simulators. Once installed, the user can experience a high-fidelity respiratory system added to the many features already available with these manikin simulators.
2.2 Lung Adapter for the SimBaby™ As of LLEAP software version 6.7, the SimBaby™ includes internal components to detect if an ASL 5000™ Breathing Simulator is being used. The Lung Adapter for this manikin requires no internal reconfiguration as compared to the SimMan® manikin family. A 15mm side port next to the RJ45 Ethernet connector provides the link between the SimBaby™...
2.4 Lung Solution Windows The Lung Solution software enhances realism in the LLEAP environment by providing six (6) additional windows that work with the high-fidelity lung simulator. These windows are explained below. ASL Session Control – This window controls the connection to the ASL 5000™ and the volume/gas conditions (e.g.
Page 14
ASL Lung Model Control – This window controls the airway resistance and lung compliance of the ASL 5000™. The user can select a simplified lung model consisting of a single resistance and compliance. Switching to the Advanced view, the user can create a more complex dual lung model, which can include (but is not limited to) variations in inspiratory versus expiratory resistance.
Page 15
The Lung Model and the Breath Effort Control windows include a feature called Breaths Per Change (BpC). This feature brings more realism to changes in the model by transitioning from one state to the next over the selected number of breaths. The user can control the progression of a change based on the selection.
2.5 Components The ASL 5000™ Lung Solution has three major components: Lung Adapter hardware (as applicable to the manikin), software installer, and ASL 5000™ Breathing Simulator. The Lung Adapter creates a bypass from the internal manikin lungs to the ASL 5000™. For the SimMan® family of compatible manikins, the Lung Adapter includes a selector-switch to easily toggle between the SimMan®...

5-7 - Total Volume Toggle OFF - Showing Tidal Volume When the toggle is ON, the waveforms change to be representative of the various compartments of the lung. This includes Total Volume (including volumes related to air-trapping) as well as left and right lung volumes (if a 2-lung model is being used).
Page 54
Tidal volume is represented by the change in volume that is not affected by PEEP or air-trapping within the lung. Thus, Tidal Volume always returns to zero on the y-axis. Total volume is a more detailed representation of what is actually happening in the lung. Total volume includes the offset due to PEEP or air-trapping.

5.4 ASL Monitor The ASL Monitor window includes two views for the instructor, the Monitor view and the Equation of Motion view. The Monitor view is a useful tool for analyzing the waveforms and readings directly from the lung. These include pressure (cmH2O), flow (L/min) and volume (mL) waveforms. Relevant lung parameters are also monitored and are updated upon the completion of a patient breath.
Page 65
Figure 5-29 - ASL Monitor View 1. Pressure waveforms include airway (external), muscle (spontaneous breathing), as well as left and right internal lung pressures 2. Flow is the total flow in the system 3. Volume waveforms include total, right, and left lung volumes as well as a representation of air trapping (or breath-stacking) due to PEEP or lung mechanics (resistance or compliance) 4.
5.5 ASL Equation of Motion The Equation of Motion (EOM) window gives the user a different way to look at the patient breathing. This is a real-time analysis of the mechanics of breathing represented by the components of the EOM. Figure 5-30 - Equation of Motion Window 1.
5.6 ASL Lung Model Control The ASL Lung Model Control window provides direct control of the patient’s lung and airway mechanics related to resistance and compliance. This includes single or dual lung models and inspiratory versus expiratory resistance. Figure 5-32 - Lung Model Control 1.
5.7 ASL Breath Effort Control The Breath Effort Control window controls spontaneous breathing and breath rate. Figure 5-37 - Simple Effort Control 1. Muscle Pressure knob: Patient muscle pressure (negative pressure inside the lungs creating flow into the mouth). The user can also double-click the number inside and directly type a value.
