2 In below situations, the calculated PPV value may be inaccurate:
- the respiration rate is lower than 8 rpm
- the tidal volume during ventilation is lower than 8 ml/kg
- patients have acute right ventricular functional disorder (pulmonary heart disease)
3 PPV measurement has been validated only for adult patients.
PPV is calculated according to the following equation:
PPV= (PPmax – PPmin)/(PPmax + PPmin)/2) * 100%
To select an arterial pressure as PPV source:
1. Click the PPV parameter area to enter PPV Setup menu.
2. Select Art, P1, P2, or AUTO as PPV Source.
Only when P1 and P2 are arterial pressure can they be selected as PPV source. When it is set to
AUTO and if there is more than one arterial pressure at the same time, the priority level should
be: Art > P1 > P2.
