    Avance Ventilator theory The ventilator pneumatics are at the rear of the breathing system. A precision valve controls gas flow to the patient. During inspiration, this gas flow closes the exhalation valve and pushes the bellows down. During expiration, a small flow pressurizes the exhalation diaphragm to supply PEEP pressure.
  • Page 179: O2 Monitoring Theory Of Operation

    11 Specifications and theory of operation O2 monitoring theory O2 monitoring measures O2 concentration in the patient circuit. The of operation O2 concentration measured from the O2 cell is shown on the ventilator display. The O2 cell is an electrochemical device (galvanic cell). Oxygen diffuses through a membrane into the cell and oxidizes a base metal electrode.
  • Page 180 Avance Volume control mode Volume control supplies a set tidal volume. The ventilator calculates a flow based on the set tidal volume and the length of the inspiratory time (TI) to deliver that tidal volume. It then adjusts that output by measuring delivered volumes at the flow sensors.
  • Page 181 11 Specifications and theory of operation Pressure control mode Pressure control supplies a constant set pressure during inspiration. The ventilator calculates the inspiratory time from the frequency and I:E ratio settings. A high initial flow pressurizes the circuit to the set inspiratory pressure.
  • Page 182 Avance SIMV/PSV mode Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation/Pressure Support is a mode in which periodic volume breaths are delivered to the patient at preset intervals (time-triggered).
