Every other use may lead to risk of personal injury! CAUTION! Read this manual thoroughly so that you completely understand how the Vivo 65 is oper- ated and maintained before taking it into use, to ensure correct usage, maximum per- formance and serviceability.
Intended Use The Vivo 65 (with or without the SpO2 and CO2 sensor) is intended to provide continuous or intermittent ventilatory support for the care of individuals who require mechanical venti- lation. Specifically, the ventilator is applicable for paediatric through adult patients weighing more than 5 kg.
1.4.1 Audience This manual is intended for patients and other lay users operating the Vivo 65. • Care providers, clinical personnel, physicians and others who require a working knowledge of the Vivo 65 will find additional information on settings and func- tions in the Clinician’s Manual.

Failure to have an alternative means of ventilation can result in serious injury or patient death if ventilator fails. The Vivo 65 must be turned off and on at least every 90 days. This is necessary in order for the Vivo 65 to perform a complete self-test. The self-test automatically tests the alarm sound and certain components.
Page 14
If you suspect that the device has been mistreated, perform a functional check before taking it to use. A basic functional check can be performed as described in 4.5 Inspecting the Vivo 65 before Use, page 39. A complete functional check can be performed by an authorized service technician.
Risk of Electric Shock High voltage contact may cause cardiac arrhythmia. • Do not operate the Vivo 65 if it has a damaged power cord, power supply or casing. • To avoid electrical shock, only clean the Vivo 65 according to instructions in this manual.
Page 16
Do not use or store the Vivo 65 in a magnetic resonance (MR) environment. Use of the Vivo 65 in an MR environment may result in malfunction of the Vivo 65 and pose unacceptable risk to the patient, medical staff or other persons.
The ventilator should be turned on and the function of the leakage port or exhalation valve should be checked before use. Do not breathe in the connected patient circuit unless the Vivo 65 is turned on and oper- ating properly.
Page 18
Always follow the instructions of the mask manufacturer. The Vivo 65 is equipped with a rebreathing alarm. The alarm is not a substitute for oper- ator vigilance in ensuring that the leakage port or exhalation valve remains clear at all times.
SpO module. WARNING! Always use a new patient circuit when the Vivo 65 is to be used by a new patient. NOTE The Vivo 65 and its packaging do not contain any natural rubber latex. Usage of Filters WARNING! Always use the ventilator with patient air inlet filters installed.
WARNING! Humidification must only be used if this has been prescribed by your physician. The Vivo 65 therapy settings must always be prescribed by a physician or other licensed health care professional, and be carried out by authorized clinical personnel.
WARNING! Risk of Fire When oxygen is used with the Vivo 65, the oxygen flow must be turned off when the Vivo 65 is not operating. Oxygen delivered into the patient tubing may accumulate within the machine enclosure. Oxygen accumulated in the machine enclosure increases the risk of fire.

If Target Volume is used with a patient circuit with an active exhalation valve, leakage may be misinterpreted by the Vivo 65 as an increase of tidal volume. This will lead to a decrease of the Inspiratory Pressure (the Inspiratory Pressure will not be lower than the set Min Pressure).
5.4.19 Tidal Volume The Tidal Volume setting defines the volume that will be delivered by the Vivo 65 for each breath. In VCV-SIMV mode, this setting is applicable to the mandatory breaths that are controlled by the ventilator. 300 s (Adult mode)
The ventilation and breath modes are used for controlling the ventilation treatment with the Vivo 65. The ventilation mode selected can be either Pressure, Volume or CPAP. It is used in combination with the Support, Assist/Control, SIMV or MPV breath mode.

See 5.4.16 Target Volume, page 62 for more information about Target Volume. PCV-SIMV – Pressure Controlled Ventilation with Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation In the PCV-SIMV mode, the Vivo 65 synchronizes mandatory pressure-controlled breaths with the patient’s breathing efforts. In this mode, the ventilator delivers mandatory pressure-controlled breaths with a preset breath frequency defined as the SIMV Rate.
Page 69
MPV breath mode shall not be used with ventilator dependent patients. VCV – Volume Controlled Ventilation In the VCV mode the ventilation is controlled by the Vivo 65. This is done with the preset tidal volume, breath rate, inspiratory time, and rise time settings set by the operator.
Page 70
VCV-SIMV – Volume Controlled Ventilation with Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation In the VCV-SIMV mode, the Vivo 65 synchronizes mandatory volume-controlled breaths with the patient’s breathing efforts. In this mode, the ventilator delivers mandatory volume-controlled breaths with a preset breath frequency defined as the SIMV Rate. The SIMV Rate setting determines the length of the SIMV cycle.
Read the chapter 2.2 Electrical Safety, page 13 carefully to make sure all conditions are con- sidered and met. CAUTION! Do not eject the memory card or disconnect the Vivo-PC data cable while the Vivo 65 is transferring data. Doing so may result in loss of data and/or damaged equipment. NOTE In order to view and present patient data correctly, the Vivo 65 PC Software must be installed on the PC.

Vivo 65 is maximized during its lifetime. The internal and click-on batteries in the Vivo 65 are of the Lithium-ion type, which is a high performance battery. It has long expected lifetime, low weight in relation to its capacity and low self discharge.
To ensure that the batteries are fully charged, a maintaining charging cycle will be performed. The batteries are not charged when connecting the Vivo 65 to an external DC supply. While charging, the battery level will be animated. The batteries are only charged if the internal temperatures are between 0 to 45°C (32 to 113°F).
Connect the Click-on Battery 1 Use, for example, a small screwdriver to open the cover for the click-on battery connectors. 2 Make sure the cover is completely opened. How to Use the Vivo 65 User manual Doc. 006150 M-1...
