Instructions for Use
TNI soft Flow 50
Clinic System
3.1.2 Humidity
• Select the parameter ”Humidity” in the user menu.
• Increase the dew point temperature (in 1°C DP steps, within the range from 30-37°C DP) to increase
the humidity or vice versa by pressing the arrow keys. Confirm the new nominal value.
• The newly set nominal value is shown at the bottom of the display.
User menu: Setting: Nominal value in the footer:
• Alternatively, the nominal value can be changed directly in the operation mode by pressing the
arrow keys.
NOTE
• For optimal humidification of the patient’s mucosa, humidity of 34-37°C DP during therapy is
recommended.
• For optimum humidification of the respiratory tract during tracheal therapy, humidity of 37°
TP is recommended
• If the patient feels dryness in the nose, check if the humidification chamber contains enough
water and/or increase the humidity value.
• The system requires a setup-time of about 10 min to adjust a newly set nominal value of
humidity.
• If water condenses excessively in the applicator / heating tube, the chosen humidity value
might be too high for the present ambient conditions. Reduce the dew point value.
3.1.3 Oxygen
If required, oxygen can be additionally mixed into the air flow by connecting an external oxygen source to
the TNI softFlow device (see chapter 2.3 Oxygen supply).
• Switch on the TNI softFlow device first.
• Wait until the target flow is reached.
• Start the oxygen supply by opening the valve of external oxygen source.
•
The oxygen flow rate is displayed in l/min and the resulting oxygen concentration of the air flow is
shown as FiO
2
value in %.
• Adjust the oxygen supply by adjusting the opening of the valve of the external oxygen source.
• Stop the oxygen supply by closing the valve of the external oxygen source.
