The alarm area on the screen can display up to three alarms, listed in order of severity.Should
there be more ongoing alarms a number will be visible to the right (in this case 4). Pressing the
number shows up to 10 ongoing alarms.For previous alarms press “trends” on the same page.
Leakage
Should a leakage occur an alarm will be activated. In general the leakage will not be compensated.
This is especially important during volume controlled ventilation modes. It´s important to find the
source of leakage in order to rectify it as well as following of the patient´s vital signs and ventilation
metrics.
System checkout
To ensure correct system functionality, optimal performance and patient safety, the System checkout
procedure must be performed once a day, or before connecting the first patient within a running 24 hour
period. Should the duration of the treatment exceed this period a message prompting the user to perform a
new system checkout will appear. The system will continue to ventilate independent of this message that will
remain as a reminder. With risk for minor device malfunctiong after 24 h, such as drifting values, it is
possible to continue ventilation for 72 h before conducting System checkout. In order to perform a new
system checkout the system needs to be in Standby and thus the patient needs to be disconnected from the
ventilator and manually ventilated with a resuscitator. The test will take 6-8 minutes Make sure to document
the settings before going to Standby as the machine will reset to startup configurations.
