USING A MASK WHILE IN LAB MODE
When using a mask in
Lab Mode
(
5 PSI
low flow) do not use the
Mask Adapter
.
Instead, connect the mask directly to the breathing circuit. The blue scavenger tube
should be connected to the scavenger port at the back of the unit.
NOTE: An adequate
MASK
flow is calculated as in the formula below:
F
MASK
= 3 x M
v
Where:
F
MASK
= Mask Flow Rate
M
v
= Minute Volume per Kilogram
The ADS 2000 automatically selects a
Mask
FLOW RATE
of at least 3 times
Minute
Volume
based on the patients’ weight entered.
NOTE: The scavenger system must be able to hold at least one
Tidal Volume
for the
MASK
function to work properly.
NOTE: In the
MASK Mode
there is a built in pressure safety feature that stops the flow
to the patient and causes an audible alarm if the pressure exceeds 35 cm. of H
2
O. This
pressure can build up if the
MASK ADAPTER
is not used, i.e. the mask is connected
directly to the Breathing Circuit.
8. To end a
MASK
procedure, simply place the “
MASK
” switch in the
OFF
or “
O
” and
put the
5 / 50 PSI Switch
(on the back of the unit) back to
50 PSI
. The ADS 2000 then
reverts back to normal operation.
