NMGS PMC PROCEDURE (continued)
6.15.18 Adjust the Inspiratory Flow until a peak pressure of 80 cm H
2
O is
achieved.
6.15.19 If applicable, set the Pressure Limit Control to within the 30 range.
Readjust within the band as necessary to achieve proper value. Is the
peak pressure at the 30 range within 27 to 33 cm H
2
O? ___ (Y)
6.15.20 Set the Pressure Limit Control to the MIN position. Is the peak pressure
at the MIN range 0 to 15 cm H
2
O? ___ (Y) Return the Pressure Limit
control to MAX.
6.15.21 Loosen the expiratory valve dome, or if equipped with an ultrasonic flow
sensor, open the Y-piece and disconnect the hose attached to the
exhalation valve and blow into it.
6.15.22 Does the Reverse Flow message appear on the display? ___ (Y)
6.15.23 Tighten the expiratory valve dome if applicable, or if equipped with an
ultrasonic flow sensor reconnect the hose between the expiratory valve
and the flow sensor.
6.15.24 Insert a test minute volumeter in between absorber dome and Spiromed,
or exhalation valve and absorber dome if equipped with an ultrasonic
flow sensor.
6.15.25 Open the Y-piece.
6.15.26 Turn the ventilator off and press the ALL STBY key to clear alarms.
6.15.27 Turn the ventilator on and start a stop watch.
