Respiratory mechanics parameters
On the curves screen, two screens display the ventilatory mechanics parameters, which can be
accessed using the
(screen 2/4) button and the (screen 3/4) button.
Plateau time
Pressing the End-inspiratory pause button inserts a plateau time at the end of the inspiratory
cycle, once the minimum tidal volume has been reached. Hold your finger on the button for the
desired length of the plateau time (max. 5 s). The ventilator will keep the inspiratory and expiratory
valves closed, and no air flow will be delivered.
End-expiratory pause
Pressing the End-expiratory pause button inserts a pause at the end of the expiratory cycle.
During the pause, the ventilator keeps the inspiratory and expiratory valves closed.

1. Press screen 2/4 .
2. Then press during the inspiratory phase to insert an end-
inspiratory pause. The maximum pause time is 5 seconds ,
after which expiration is automatically triggered.
The screen displays the plateau pressure (Pplat), maximum
pressure (Ppeak) and resistance (R) values.
3. Press “OK” to go to the frozen curves screen (see “Freezing
the curves” on page 57) or to return to the curves screen.
Note:
Wait for the real-time curves to be displayed at the left-
hand side of the screen before pressing the Pause button.
Otherwise, the frozen curves will not display correctly.

1. Press screen 2/4 .
2. Then press during the expiratory phase to insert an end-
expiratory pause. The maximum pause time is 12 seconds ,
after which inspiration is automatically triggered.
The screen displays the total positive expiratory pressure
(PEEPtot) and the intrinsic positive expiratory pressure (PEEPi).
3. Press “OK” to go to the frozen curves screen (see “Freezing
the curves” on page 57) or to return to the curves screen.
Note:
Wait for the real-time curves to be displayed at the left-
hand side of the screen before pressing the Pause button.
Otherwise, the frozen curves will not display correctly.
