6.3.16 Disconnection Alarm
CAUTION!
No single alarm can reliably detect all disconnections due to the number of possible
combinations of therapy settings, circuit configurations and patient interfaces. To verify
that patient disconnection can be detected, including if the patient interface becomes
accidentally detached from the patient, it is advised to test the functionality of the Dis-
connection Alarm upfront with the complete set-up as used during treatment, including
items such as filters, circuit, connectors, interface (mask, cannula etc.)
