Alarm Bar Gives visual indication of parameter and technical alarms. • If there are no current active alarms, the alarm status shows no alarms and the alarm bar is green. • If there are active alarms, the alarm status shows the alarm message for the most recent alarm with the highest priority. The alarm bar color shows the priority of the alarm. The alarm list contains all of the active alarms, as well as previous alarms requiring user acknowledgment. • If the alarm bar is grey, there are no active alarms, but a previous alarm requires user acknowledgment. 1.

5. Alarm Limits: Select the check box to show alarm limits adjacent to the measured data in the patient data workspace. The alarm limit always shows when an alarm occurs for the measured data, even if it is set to Off. 6. Auto Limits: Select to set auto alarm limits based on current measured data for: a. MVexp-Low and High b. VTexp-Low and High c. Rate-Low and High d. EtCO2-Low and High e. PEEPe-Low and High
To Adjust the Alarm Settings: 1. Select either the Low or High alarm limit, and then use the Trim Knob to adjust the setting. OR 2. Select within the border of the active alarm on the measured data screen to open the Alarm Setup menu. If necessary, use the Trim Knob to adjust the setting for the alarm limit. Note: • Alarm setting changes that are not confirmed prior to the end of a timeout period are cancelled. • Alarm Limits for EtCO2 , EtO2 and PEEPi are only available when an airway module with these measurement capabilities is installed. If the patient type is Neonatal, these alarm limits are not shown. 9
Nebulizer Warning • Do not use a filter, heat-moisture exchanger or heat-moisture exchanger filter between the nebulizer and the patient airway. • Use of a heat-moisture exchanger or nebulizer in the breathing circuit can substantially increase flow resistance when a nebulizer is active. Monitor the breathing system filter frequently for increased resistance and blockage. • Use of an external pneumatic nebulizer may significantly impact volume delivery and monitoring, decrease trigger sensitivity, and cause alarms if external flow is introduced and Pneumatic Nebulizer Flow Compensation is not used.
Caution • It is strongly recommended to use an expiratory filter when a nebulizer is used to help protect the expiratory flow sensor.

Nebulizer Treatment The ventilator supports the Aerogen® Pro In-line Nebulizer and Aerogen® Solo Disposable In-line Nebulizer. The nebulizer time can be set for specific duration delivery times or for the volume of medication that will be delivered to the patient. A general message shows the nebulizer treatment time remaining. 1. Select Menu. 2. Select Nebulizer. 3. Select Aerogen. 4. Select Time or Continuous. Note: Time and approximate volume of nebulized medication are shown in the table. 5. Select Start. Note: To end nebulizer treatment before the set time, select Stop.

Warning • Do not use a filter, heat-moisture exchanger or heat-moisture exchanger filter between the nebulizer and the patient airway. • Use of a heat-moisture exchanger or nebulizer in the breathing circuit can substantially increase flow resistance when a nebulizer is active. Monitor the breathing system filter frequently for increased resistance and blockage. • Use of an external pneumatic nebulizer may significantly impact volume delivery and monitoring, decrease trigger sensitivity, and cause alarms if external flow is introduced and Pneumatic Nebulizer Flow Compensation is not used.
Pneumatic Nebulizer The ventilator can compensate for additional flow introduced by a pneumatic nebulizer into the patient circuit. WARNING! Use of an external pneumatic nebulizer may significantly modify the mixture of gas that is delivered to the patient.

• Using external pneumatic nebulization may significantly 2 impact volume delivery and monitoring, decrease trigger sensitivity and cause alarms if external flow is introduced and Pneumatic Nebulizer Flow Compensation is not used.

• When the Pneumatic Nebulizer Flow Compensation is On, flow and volume accuracy may be decreased. • Leaks and flow sensor alarms may not be identified by the ventilator when Pneumatic Nebulizer Flow Compensation is On. 1. Select Menu. 2. Select Nebulizer. 3. Select Pneumatic. 4. Select Flow value. Note: Set the flow to match the amount of flow that will be introduced to the circuit. 5. Select Start. Note: A general message shows when Nebulizer Flow Compensation is On. To end the nebulizer treatment, turn the pneumatic nebulizer flow source off, then select Stop. 6. Introduce the pneumatic nebulizer into the patient circuit. Note: For best results, introduce the pneumatic nebulizer into the circuit within approximately 15 seconds after selecting Start.

Procedures Suction
1
Any ventilation mode may be used with a closed suction catheter. Patient disconnected, RR low, MVexp low, Vtexp low, Apnea and other alarms may occur during use of a closed suction catheter. To perform a suctioning without nuisance alarms, an open suction procedure is provided by the ventilator: 1. Select Menu.
3 2
2. Select Suction. 3. Select Start. 4. Wait for the pre-oxygenation phase, and then disconnect the patient at the wye. An audible tone sounds to indicate the patient is disconnected and ventilation is paused. 5. Suction the patient. 6. Reconnect the patient to resume ventilation. Note: The suction procedure will end after the oxygenation phase completes if Stop is selected.
Performing an Increase O2 Procedure 1. Select Menu. 2. Select Procedures.
1 2
3. Select Increase O2 or press the Increase O2 hard key. 4. Use the factory default setting for the Increase O2% (note: factory default setting for neonatal is +25% and +100% for adults and pediatric patients) or adjust the O2% to the desired concentration and confirm the setting. 5. Select Start. Note: The oxygen general message shows along with the progress bar and a 2-minute countdown timer. The procedure will end when a.) the time has elapsed or b.) when Stop is selected or c.) when the Increase O2 favorite is selected or d.) when the Increase O2 hard key is pressed.
