Operation
CLIC Adapter (Optional)
The disposable CLIC adapter absorber can also be
used on the Fabius MRI. For information on install-
ing the CLIC adapter, consult its Instructions for
Use.
Points to note when using the CLIC adapter
with neonates and infants
The compliance of the breathing system is reduced
when the disposable absorber is removed. As a
result, the ventilator delivers a higher tidal volume
to the patient during IPPV/SIMV and the airway
pressure increases accordingly. The effect on the
tidal volume and airway pressure is negligible in
adults with a lung compliance of approx.
50 mL/cmH
2
O. In neonates and infants with a lung
compliance of approx. 5 mL/cmH
2
O or less, the
tidal volume and airway pressure can increase con-
siderably and harm the patient if the disposable
absorber is removed during IPPV/SIMV.
Before removing the disposable absorber:

to the plateau pressure.
As soon as the absorber has been
replaced:

to the original value again.
