New way to change ventilation modes The ADU has been enhanced with a new method to switch between ventilation modes. The new method is factory default, but the ADU can be configured to use the old method. Contact a service technician to reconfigure. 1. Push the Ventilator key. 2. Review the settings for the new mode. 3. Select Mode. 4. Select the desired mode. 5. The main parameter for the selected mode is highlighted and activated for adjustment for 10 s. The ventilator switches mode when the parameter has been confirmed. There are three alternatives to confirm: • Confirm the value with ComWheel. • Wait 10 s and let the system automatically confirm the setting. • Adjust the value and follow with either of the two actions above.

When changing ventilation mode new ventilation settings will be activated. The settings are either suggested values based on the previous ventilation mode or defaults. Examples: • When changing from VCV to PCV the ADU suggests an inspiratory pressure: The suggested pressure is based on the pressure difference between Pplat and Peep in VCV when the set volume is delivered. • When changing from PCV to VCV the ADU suggests a volume: The suggested volume is the volume measured by the monitor during the pressure controlled mode. It is important that the operator reviews all the ventilation parameters when changing to another ventilation mode. The most important parameter in the new ventilation mode is highlighted with a flashing background and can easily be adjusted. The new ventilation mode will be activated when that parameter is manually confirmed or automatically confirmed after a 10 second delay. Switching to and from SIMV Note the following when switching to and from SIMV: When entering SIMV mode the current Insp (inspiration time) remains unchanged, but new values that are appropriate for SIMV are suggested for Resp. Rate, Minute Volume, exp (expiration time), I:E Ratio and Insp. time %. When leaving SIMV mode, the insp, Resp. Rate, Minute Volume, exp and I:E Ratio will resume the values they had before entering SIMV. Changes made to these parameters while in SIMV will no longer be in effect. Confirming settings The new method to switch between ventilation modes also changes the timeout of changed ventilator settings from cancel to confirm. This applies when the setting is changed via the quick keys. If the changed setting is not confirmed by the user within 20 s, it is automatically confirmed by the system. WARNING: Before activating Volume Controlled Mode, ensure that Tidal Volume, Resp. Rate and I:E Ratio are correctly adjusted. WARNING: When switching from PCV or PSV to Volume or SIMV, ensure that the set Tidal Volume is appropriate for the patient.

WARNING: Most anesthetic agents may cause patients to have reduced ventilatory responses to CO2 and hypoxemia. As a result, triggered modes of ventilation may not produce adequate ventilation. WARNING: Neuromuscular blocking agents may interfere with triggering.
Pressure Support Ventilation, PSV (optional) Description PSV is a pressure supported ventilation mode with apnea backup. PSV supports the patient’s spontaneous breathing and is intended for patients with weak breathing effort - both low inspiratory flow and pressure drop - for example during the wake-up phase of anesthesia. The PSV mode will give best performance using low flow anesthesia. When the patient has triggered a breath, the ventilator builds up the patient circuit pressure to the set level and maintains the pressure until the expiration phase. The inspiratory flow is decelerating and optimized to provide the set pressure level as quickly as possible. There is no guarantee of the delivered volume in PSV - use of a volume monitor is therefore required. Inspiration The inspiration support starts when the patient triggers a breath within the set trigger sensitivity. If the patient does not trigger a breath, the ventilator will deliver a backup breath after the set backup time. Expiration The expiration phase starts when the inspiratory flow drops to 15% of the peak flow.

In the SIMV mode a negative pressure (in relation to actual Peep value) created by the patient, triggers the delivery of a mechanical breath. In PSV mode the negative pressure triggers the delivery of a pressure supported breath. The triggered breath is indicated by a color change of the pressure waveform. The delivery is very smooth as the breath is delivered as a natural progression of the negative pressure, which initiated the breath. A high sensitivity corresponds to a low threshold level for triggering and conversely, low sensitivity means a high threshold level. Trigger window • Adjustable range: 5 to 95 % • Default setting: 50 % • Set in ventilation modes: SIMV and PSV 1. Push Ventilator key to display menu. 2. Select Options and then Trigger window. 3. Turn ComWheel to adjust Trigger window. 4. Push ComWheel or Normal Screen.

Figure 7 Trigger window setting In the SIMV mode, the patient may trigger a mechanical tidal volume breath within a Trigger window. The window is placed at the end of the expiration phase as defined by the respiratory rate (RR). In this way mandatory breaths are synchronized with spontaneous efforts. In the PSV mode, the patient may trigger a pressure-supported breath within a Trigger window. A wide window (95%) will allow a new pressure-supported breath immediately after the previous, whereas a narrow window (5%) will allow a new pressure-supported breath after a delay period.

Figure 9 Trigger window and sensitivity level for PSV The trigger function is activated by a spontaneously created negative pressure (in relation to PEEP value) which exceeds the set Trigger Sensitivity level. SIMV: The frequency of the mandatory breaths can never be lower than the preset Respiration Rate (RR). On the other hand, the possibility for the patient to trigger mandatory breaths within the Trigger Window may lead to a situation where the actual mechanical breaths are more than the pre-set value for RR. This gives also rise to an increased Minute Volume. To avoid hyperventilation and still support spontaneous breaths - decrease pre-set RR on the ventilator and adjust the Trigger Window accordingly.

Restart of the display Under rare interacting circumstances microprocessor-controlled systems may enter a state when the program resets to a defined default condition. Should the display function of the ADU enter a reset state, it will be automatically restarted. During the restart, the Ventilator and Fresh Gas Control units continue to deliver gas as set, but you will be unable to adjust the ventilator settings. Fresh gas flows and anesthetic agent settings can be adjusted, but the settings are not displayed on the screen. After the display has been restarted, parameter and alarm settings may be adjusted again.
Display description If a reset condition occurs, the ADU displays the following: 1. The screen blanks out. 2. After approximately 10 seconds, the screen displays the Datex-Ohmeda logotype. 3. After approximately 15 seconds, the startup screen is displayed. 4. Within 40 seconds the screen has been restarted and can be used again. 5. The alarm message ‘Display SW has been restarted‘ and the messages ‘Check ventilator settings‘ and ‘Check alarm limits‘ are shown in the alarm message field. Display SW has been restarted
