To start mechanical ventilation, set the Bag/Vent switch to Vent - r. • Use the volume alarm key to prevent false alarms during manual ventilation.

7.

To stop mechanical ventilation, set the Bag/Vent switch to Bag or select the auxiliary gas outlet.

Checklist IMPORTANT!

Refer to the preoperative checklist: • Every day before the first patient. • Every time a different clinician uses the system.

Before Every Patient ∫

Look for damage, necessary drugs and equipment, correct breathing circuit setup, and hazardous conditions.

∫

Check vaporizer installation: • Make sure the top of each vaporizer is horizontal (not on crooked). • Make sure each vaporizer is locked and cannot be removed. • Make sure the alarms and indicators operate correctly (Tec 6 vaporizer). • Make sure you cannot turn on more than one vaporizer at the same time.

∫

Do the breathing system tests: • Make sure the one way valves and auxiliary equipment (humidifier, etc.) operate correctly. • With a circle breathing-circuit module, push the drain button for >10 sec to remove condensate. • Ventilator circuit leak test. • Bag/Manual circuit leak test. • Bag/Manual circuit APL valve test. • Circuit leak test.

Start/Stop Mechanical Ventilation To Start w WARNING

Make sure the patient circuit is correctly assembled and the control settings are correct before you start or stop ventilation.

Mechanical ventilation is off when you first turn on the system.

1.

Make sure the control settings are correct.

2.

Turn off the auxiliary common gas outlet (some models).

3.

Set the Bag/Vent switch back to Vent - r. • If mechanical ventilation is not available, a message tells you what to do.

Alarm Settings O2 and volume alarms: high and low volume and high O2 alarms can be turned off. The low O2 alarm cannot be set to less than 18%. Circuit leak audio: to prevent alarms from a known leak (e.g. an uncuffed tube), set the audio to off. Cardiac Bypass: set Cardiac Bypass to “in progress” to prevent volume and Apnea alarms when the patient is on cardio-pulmonary bypass. When Cardiac Bypass is in progress, the display shows Cardiac Bypass and Apnea Alarm Off Off. Note: mechanical ventilation must be off. 1.

Push the menu key.

2.

Turn, then push the knob to select Alarm Settings Settings.

3.

Turn, then push the knob to select an alarm limit.

4.

Turn, then push the knob to change the limit. You must push the knob to save the change.

Turn the Volume Alarms On or Off w WARNING

Do not turn off volume alarms with a spontaneously breathing patient. The system will not alarm for low volume.

The volume alarm key (VE/VTE) turns volume alarms on and off. When the alarms are off, the alarm limits are hidden. Use this control to prevent false alarms if you switch to manual ventilation at lower tidal volumes.

w WARNING

Do not use malfunctioning equipment. Contact Datex-Ohmeda for service. Refer to the Operation Manual - Cleaning, Setup, Maintenance, and Troubleshooting for more information.

Message

Cause

Action/Concern

12 Hour Test

System in use for more than 12 hours without a power-up self test.

The system continues to operate. To do the test, move the system switch from standby to on.

Check Flow Sensors

No flow or negative flow during inspiration. Negative flow during expiration.

Are flow sensors correctly installed? Are the connectors reversed? Inspect check valves.

Low Paw

Paw does not rise at least 4 cm from the lowest pressure measured during the last 20 seconds.

Are circuit connections OK? Look at the Paw gauge on the absorber. Look for circuit disconnection.

Minimum System Failure

A severe malfunction prevents mechanical ventilation and monitoring. Other alarms may also occur.

Ventilate manually. Use a stand-alone monitor. Cycle system power (on-standby-on). If the alarm clears, restart mechanical ventilation.

Patient Circuit Leak

Exhaled volume < 50% of inspired volume for at least 30 sec.

Check breathing circuit and flow sensor connections. With an uncuffed tube or known leak, set circuit leak audio to off (alarm limits).

Cannot Drive Bellows

The drive pressure to the bellows housing > Paw.

Fill the bellows if empty. Check the patient connection.

Volume Apnea

No measured breath in last 30 seconds.

Check patient. Bag as needed. Look for disconnects. If the patient is on cardio-pulmonary bypass, select Cardiac bypass on the alarm menu.

VT not achieved

The tidal volume measured by the inspiratory flow sensor < set value.

Adjust controls to supply adequate tidal volume.

Troubleshooting Leaks 1.

Are absorber canisters correctly installed?

2.

Is auxiliary outlet off?

Off

3.

Calibrate/replace flow sensors.

4.

Do circuit leak tests • Bag circuit • Ventilator circuit.
