7.5 Parameters Monitoring
7.5.1 FiO
2
monitoring
If the system is configured with an O
2
module or an oxygen sensor, FiO
2
values are displayed.
Caution
⚫
If an oxygen sensor is used, oxygen concentration monitoring may be inaccurate. Calibrate
the oxygen sensor if the inaccuracies are large.

7.5.3 Tidal Volume Monitoring
Caution
⚫
The tidal volume values on the bellows housing give an approximate indication, and may be
inconsistent with the actual measured volumes. This is a normal phenomenon.
⚫
International standards require that the user must monitor tidal volume during a clinical
procedure.
Volume related parameters are measured as shown below.
