Figure 4-4 Popup Message Example
In addition to addressing setting conflicts, popup messages are used for confirmation (for
example, alarms). These messages also appear whenever you attempt to adjust the ventilator in
a way that is outside clinical norms or is outside its performance range.
Popup messages also appear when you are required to confirm their action before you proceed.
For example, setting the low breath rate alarm below 4 would allow for 15 second apnea
periods and would, in essence, disable the alarm for some patients. If the desired value is
outside the performance range, the popup message alerts you to why you cannot make the
change. (Example: trying to set the PEEP level greater than the PIP setting).
A list of all popup messages follows.
