Patient hazard - Insufficient oxygen supply due to water in the
breathing circuit
If the water in the water chamber is above the maximum safety level, it can
enter the patient's airways and prevent sufficient oxygen supply and
ventilation.
▪
The LM 2000 may only be used with Löwenstein Medical’s ventilation
tubes, which have been specially developed for the correct operation of
the device. The use of water chambers not approved by Löwenstein
Medical may affect performance or safety; for example, the humidifier
may not immediately signal that the maximum safety level of water in
the water chamber is exceeded.
▪
Clinical operators or medical staff decide on their own responsibility
whether to activate or deactivate the level sensor.
