  • Page 7: Safety Instructions

    SECTION: 1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS Summary Statement The paraPAC plus ventilators are portable devices intended for the ventilation of adults, children and infants (above 10kg) during transportation and emergency situations. They consist of a control module and a remote patient valve, connected by means of a breathing hose. Both pneumatic and electronic alarms are incorporated.

  • Page 8: (B) Warnings, Cautions And Precautions

    The paraPAC plus ventilator is intended only for use in transport and emergency situations where the patient is being constantly monitored by the carer. The integrated alarm unit is intended to alert the carer to changes in the patient’s ventilation but it cannot ensure that the patient’s blood gases are maintained at the required level.
  • Page 9 Use of the ventilator and Patient breathing Circuit at Tidal Volumes below 150ml may result in a CO build up and inadequate ventilation of the patient. For tidal volumes below 150ml the Smiths Medical Hyperinflation Bag system, in conjunction with the CPAP / O L/min connector on the ventilator may be used.

    Variants Covered by this Manual SECTION: 2 GENERAL INFORMATION This manual addresses both the paraPAC plus variants – model 310 and 300. Intended Use Features that are not applicable to the model 300 are annotated (Model 310 Warning: To avoid the risk of ignition, do not smoke or have naked flames in Only), as model 310 is enhanced variant of the model 300.

  • Page 16: (B) General Description

    General Description The paraPAC plus ventilator consists of a control module and a remote patient valve, connected by means of a corrugated hose (See Fig 1). A description of controls and features on the paraPAC plus ventilator is given in Section 2 (d), the number reference against each description corresponds to the number shown in Figure 2.

  • Page 17: (C) Contraindications - None Known

    When O is selected, only the internal demand valve is DEMAND, energised by the gas supply. When the patient is connected to the patient valve, any spontaneous breathing effort is satisfied by flow from the demand valve. This provides a very gas efficient method of treating a victim with an unprotected airway where enhanced oxygen [tidal volume dependent see table in Appendix C] is recommended as the approved therapy.

  • Page 46: (H) Positive End Expiration Pressure (Peep)

    Both of these potential problems can be effectively overcome by the use of bacterial filters, which also acts as heat and moisture exchangers (HMEs). Smiths Medical would therefore strongly recommend the use of such devices when ventilating intubated patients, at least for longer term ventilation.

  • Page 47: (K) Use In A Magnetic Resonance Imaging (Mri) Environment

    Some of the surrounding atmosphere may enter the breathing system during spontaneous breathing as a result of venting ports within the ventilator. This dilution is minimal but will be worst at low breathing levels - particularly below the level at which inhibition occurs - and therefore under these conditions the paraPAC plus ventilator should be set to take control of the breathing.
  • Page 48 Where ≈50 % oxygen concentration is required, use an oxygen supply and select ≈50 (air mix). In this setting a bottled gas supply will last longer and therefore this setting is preferred wherever possible once the patient is stabilised. When the tidal volume control is set to its lower settings with ≈50 % (air mix) selected the actual tidal volume and oxygen concentration delivered to the patient will become increasingly dependent upon the inflation pressure being generated.
