WELCOME TO THE 

FLEXIVENT

 FX 

Congratulations, and thank you for selecting the 

flexiVent

!  The 

flexiVent

 FX combines the most 

accurate, detailed and reproducible measurements of respiratory mechanics with flexible and 
efficient experimentation management.  

The 

flexiVent

 FX operates with 

flexiWare

 software in a system designed for 

 

mechanical ventilation and life support 

 

execution of measurement manoeuvres including the Forced Oscillation Technique 
(FOT) 

 

management and storage of acquired raw data 

 

data analysis & model fitting 

 

visualization, storage and export of results, and 

 

maintenance of experimental records in electronic format. 

This user manual contains important information and should be studied in detail before 
operating the 

flexiVent 

FX. However, this manual is not intended to be a complete guide of the 

flexiWare 

software. For detailed information about using and configuring the 

flexiWare

 

software, please refer to the 

flexiWare 

user manual.
