The patient’s condition and chest movements as well as the Inflation Pressure Monitor
should be kept under constant observation so that adverse ventilation conditions can be
detected and corrected before the patient is put at risk.

gas cylinder contents indicator.

(c) Humidification
There is no provision in the standard babyPAC patient circuit for a heated water humidifier because
of the problems these present during the transportation of patients. If humidification is considered
necessary then the use of alternative means such as HMEs is recommended. These should comply
with EN ISO 9360.
WARNING: If a Heat Moisture Exchanger (HME) filter is used and the patient is experiencing
breathing difficulties, or there are mechanical ventilation problems, or decreases in gas
exchange, always ensure that there are no blockages in the breathin system. If a blockage
is found, immediately replace the breathing system or HME filter. To prevent such
problems occuring, filters and HME’s shiould be routinely replaced in accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions.
