8.1 GENERAL
Applied parts, i.e. equipment making physical
contact with the patient, comprise nebulizer
patient unit and cable and the Ventilator
Breathing System described in System Flow
Chart, Ventilation, Patient Connection, part
no. 66 92 522.
8.2 ACTIVE HUMIDIFIERS
The use of an active humidifier is often
beneficial for patients undergoing ventilatory
treatment.
The following humidifiers can be used with the
SERVO-s Ventilator System:
Fisher & Paykel Humidifier MR850
Teleflex Medical Conchaterm Neptune
Heated humidifier
Please refer to the manufacturer's operating
manual for instructions on use.
WARNING! During humidification, carefully
monitor the airway pressure. Increased
airway pressure could result from a clogged
filter. Replace the filter if the expiratory
resistance increases or after maximum
usage time according to filter specification,
whichever comes first.
CAUTION: If the Aeroneb nebulizer is used
with active humidification, then the particle
size of the medication may be affected.
Important:
Use only tubes recommended by
MAQUET. Soft tubing may negatively
affect the performance of the ventilator.
If a single heated breathing circuit is used
in the system a water trap must be used
on the expiratory tube to avoid
condensation in the system. During
operation the water traps must be
checked regularly and if necessary
emptied.
Fisher & Paykel’s Evaqua circuit can be
used as a dual heated breathing circuit
with the SERVO-s Ventilator System.
Accessories connected to the tubing
system may cause changes in patient
pressure.
An extended leakage test during
Pre-use-check must be performed when
using the Teleflex Medical Conchaterm
Neptune Heated humidifier. This can be
enabled in the Edit start-up configuration
window.
