The device provides the flow with a sinusoidal waveform. The device detects the breathing efforts of the pa- tient in patients with triggered ventilation. Flow dos- ing is faster than with patients who are not breath- ing spontaneously. Instructions for use Carina SW 3.2n...
8 mbar/min will not be exceeded. Because the pressures remain below the therapeu- tic level during the Tadpt time, the patient condition must be continuously monitored. Set the alarm lim- its accordingly. Instructions for use Carina SW 3.2n...
Under these conditions the volume of CO rebreathed by the patient is further increased with increased tidal volume. Instructions for use Carina SW 3.2n...
Non-invasive ventila- 0 to 120 s tion As soon as Carina has detected an inspiratory ef- fort with the aid of the trigger criteria or a reconnec- tion, ventilation will be continued with the previous settings. Trigger criteria, see page 156.
SyncPlus is based on 3 main functions: – Multi-sense trigger – Automatic leakage compensation – Cycle learning technology Multi-sense trigger Carina uses 3 trigger criteria during inspiration and expiration to detect the breathing effort of the pa- tient: – Pressure – Flow –...
VTi and MVi, it is important to en- sure that the measurement is not affected by leak- ages. NOTE Carina cannot automatically compensate for hose compliance. Breathing circuit with leakage valve The displayed values for VTi and MVi show the vol- ume applied to the patient's lung.
