Place the patient on an alternate means of
ventilation (if necessary).
Ensure that you are using a 50-PSI (nominal)
regulator.
If the alarm is not resolved, power off
the ventilator and contact your Breathe
Technologies® service representative.
Discontinue use of the ventilator. Place the
patient on an alternate means of ventilation
(if necessary), or connect the ventilator to an
alternate pressure source (oxygen cylinder or
wall source) in Stand-Alone Configuration.
Power off the compressor and contact your
Breathe Technologies® service representative.
Discontinue use of the ventilator. Place the patient on an
alternate means of ventilation (if necessary), or undock the
ventilator from the compressor and connect to an alternate

Low Breath Rate
Respiratory rate falls below set

Patient is breathing through the mouth while
using the Breathe Pillows Interface™.
Breaths are too shallow to trigger ventilation;
change the trigger sensitivity to a lower setting
(higher sensitivity).
Ensure patient interface is not leaking at patient
side.
Inspect and clean the interface per the
instructions for cleaning the interface.
Check that the interface is connected to the
ventilator, not the compressor.
