Automatic modes
A range of automatic treatment modes is available. The Clearway may be
programmed to administer the treatment as a sequence of insufflation and
exsufflation.
As an option, at the end of the sequence, two insufflations may be added to help the
patient to recover from the effort required during treatment. This is set through
advanced settings, see page 25.
The treatment sequence may be reviewed prior to use, in the treatment review
screen.

Once an Auto sequence has been determined and set up, it can be viewed in a
graphical format by selecting the
treatment review option in the main menu .
Insufflation (Ti) is shown as a positive waveform, pause (P) as zero and exsufflation
(Te) is shown as negative. The Y-axis shows pressure in cm H

time in seconds.
If the entire sequence can be displayed on
one screen width, the review screen will look
like this:-
In this example the machine has been
programmed to deliver two insufflations
followed by one exsufflation. The following
insufflations are the mandatory additional
breaths.
If the sequence is repeated or unusually long times are involved it may not be
possible to display the whole sequence clearly on one screen width. In this case the
review screen will look like this:-
In this example the screen shows the first
insufflation and exsufflation. To view the rest
