| Ventilator Type: | Positive Pressure Invasive Conventional | ||
| Ventilator Class: | Intensive Care Unit (ICU) | ||
| Patient Population Range: | Adult | ||
Characteristics | |||
| Modes--Invasive: | Pressure-controlled modes --- SIMV (spontaneous breaths) Flow-controlled modes --- CMV; SIMV (mandatory breaths) | ||
| Waveforms: | Pressure: Rectangular; Flow: Rectangular, Ascending Ramp, Descending Ramp, Sinusoidal | ||
| Operating Range of Controls: | Breath Frequency: SIMV: .5 to 30 cycles/min; CMV: 5 to 60 cycles/min; Tidal Volume (Vt): 20 to 2000 mL; Maximum Inspiratory Pressure: 10 to 110 cmH2O; Inspiration %: 20% to 80% (I:E ratio 1:4 to 4:1); Trigger: Off, 1.0 to 15.0 cmH2O below baseline pressure; PEEP/CPAP; 0 to 50 cmH2O if pressure support is not used; O2: 21% to 100%; MMV: 1 to 25 l/min | ||
| Triggering: | Pressure, Time, Manual | ||
| Power: | AC 110V/60Hz | ||
| Other Characteristics: | Other monitored variables: Actual exhaled volume at the airway opening; Respiratory system compliance and resistance | ||
Specifications | |||
| Front Panel Controls: | Mode: (S)CMV, SIMV, Spont, MMV, Mandatory, Flush, Neb, PCV; Breaths/min: (f)SIMV/(f)CMV; VT (Tidal Volume); I:E; Flow Pattern: rectangular, ascending ramp, descending ramp, sine; Trigger; PEEP/CPAP; O2; MMV; Alarm controls; Maximum breath rate; Maximum pressure; High/Low exhaled minute volume | ||
| Power Requirements: | Electrical: 115 VAC, 60 Hz; Pneumatic: Compressed gas at 29 to 116 psig | ||
| Alarm Controls: | High Inspiratory pressure: 10 to 120 cmH2O High/Low exhaled minute volume: Individually adjustable from 1 to 40 L/min; High ventilatory frequency: 0 to 70 cycles/min; High/Low Oxygen: Individually adjustable from 18% to 103% | ||
| Non-Adjustable Alarms: | AC power supply failure; Compressed gas supply below 29 psig; Pressure in internal reservoir tank below 200 cmH2O; There are separate alarms for air and oxygen sources; Low PEEP/CPAP: pressure 3 cmH2O below set PEEP level; Apnea: no exhalation for > 15 seconds; Fail to cycle: no inhalation for > 20 seconds; High peak inspiratory flow: setting > than the 180 L/min capacity of the ventilator; Set trigger: trigger wasn't set for SIMV, spontaneous, or MMV mode; Disconnect ventilator: inspired volume < 1/2 - 9 mL the volume leaving the ventilator servo flow valve for 2 consecutive breaths; Disconnection patient: expired volume < 1/8 - 3mL the volume leaving the servo flow valve for 2 consecutive breaths; Tidal Mismatch: VT insp: volume measured by flow sensor during inspiration > twice the volume leaving the servo flow valve for 3 consecutive breaths VT exp: volume measured by flow sensor during expiration > 1/2 the volume leaving the servo flow valve + 25 mL for 2 consecutive breaths; Technical fault: internal electronic system failure | ||
| Interface Ports: | RS 232C | ||
