Ventilator reaction to alarm
Alarm Definition
Low Priority
Alarm
(information)
Ventilation continues.
If flow trigger mode is active, the
device will switch to a pressure
trigger mode. In this condition you
cannot select flow trigger mode.
Some parameters such as Vte that are
measured by this sensor will be
displayed blank.
The expiratory flow sensor function
is impaired.
Possible causes: exhalation flow
sensor failure or disconnection.
Exh Sensor Error
Ventilation continues.
If flow trigger mode is active, the
device will switch to a pressure
trigger mode. In this condition you
cannot select flow trigger mode.
Exhalation flow sensor modul
function is impaired.
Exh Module Error
Ventilation continues.
Exhaled tidal volume has been below
the limit set in three consecutive
respiratory cycles.
Low Vte
Ventilation continues.
PEEP pressure has exceeded high
PEEP alarm setting in two
consecutive respiratory cycles.
High PEEP
Ventilation continues.
In PRVC-CMV, PRVC-SIMV and
VSV modes (that pressure set by
device), if in 3 consecutive
respiratory cycle reaching to the
maximum allowable pressure
prevents deliver the set volume
which is set by user, this alarm is
activated.
The maximum pressure limit is equal
to the upper limit of high pressure
alarms minus 5 cmH2O
Assisted breaths in the PRVC-SIMV
mode do not affect this alarm.
Volume Not
Delivered
Ventilation continues.
Leak value has exceeded alarm limit
in three consecutive respiratory
cycles.
High Leak
Ventilation continues.
If the measured gas temperature
parameter (gas temp) exceeds the
allowed limit (44 ° C).
High Gas
Temperature
The exhalation valve opens during
inhalation.
In volume based modes and during
inhalation if the airway pressure
exceeds“ high Ppeak alarm -5” in
three consecutive respiratory cycles.
Plim Reached
Ventilation continues.
