Bronchoscopy
You reach the “Bronchoscopy” function by pressing the “System” button and then
by selecting the “Extras” tab.
During bronchoscopy and similar therapeutic measures, which are associated
with high leakage, frequent audible alarms cannot be prevented. To reduce the
stress level during the intervention, audible alarms are often permanently muted.
Activation of the bronchoscopy function will automatically silence the audible
ventilation alarms. In this situation, it is essential to watch the patient closely or
use other suitable means of patient monitoring.
Remark
When the bronchoscopy function is activated, you will see the
“Bronchoscopy” label in the display area of the ventilation mode
concerned.
Warning
Activating bronchoscopy will disable all audible and visual ventila-
tion alarms. Technical alarms, however, are still reported.
Warning
To rule out any risk for the patient, the bronchoscopy function
may only be activated when close patient monitoring is ensured.
The extent of direct observation of the patient or additional mon -
itoring methods (pulse oximetry, end-tidal CO
2
measurement, ...)
depend on the patient’s clinical condition.
Warning
After deactivation of the bronchoscopy function, the default alarm
limits will automatically be restored. To rule out any risk for the
patient, adapt the alarm limits of the device to the alarm limits of
the therapeutic measures that you need to take for the patient at
hand.
Remark
After deactivation of the bronchoscopy function, an audible alarm
will be emitted to remind the user of the necessity to adapt the
alarm limits. When adjusting the first alarm limit, the alarm criteri -
on will be deactivated.
