Symptoms Possible Causes What to Do<br />

Sensitivity does not<br />

appear to be<br />

accurate.<br />

Ventilator is<br />

autocycling.<br />

Circuit leak. Run a leak test and reseat or replace the leaking<br />

parts or connections. See page 11-8 for<br />

instructions.<br />

Sense lines are<br />

reversed.<br />

High or low side sense<br />

line or elbow at patient<br />

wye loose or leaking.<br />

High or low sense lines<br />

are occluded.<br />

High or low sense ports<br />

in the wye are<br />

occluded.<br />

Pressure Control or<br />

Pressure Support set<br />

below PEEP.<br />

The sense lines are not designed to be removed<br />

from either the wye or the luer fittings. If the<br />

sense lines have been removed and replaced<br />

incorrectly, they may not seal correctly when<br />

replaced. Replace the patient wye and sense<br />

lines with a known good assembly.<br />

Check high and low pressure sense lines to be<br />

sure they are correctly attached and securely<br />

seated at both the ventilator and wye ends.<br />

Check the luer fitting connections for leaks.<br />

Check the elbow connectors at the wye to be<br />

sure they have not loosened or been broken<br />

loose.<br />

Verify lines are not occluded or pinched.<br />

Check the exhalation drive line at both the<br />

ventilator and exhalation valve ends. Verify the<br />

line is securely seated and not leaking.<br />

Verify the control values are appropriately set.<br />

Failed autozero. Perform an autozero under XDCR ZERO. See<br />

page 10-28 for more information.<br />

Leak Compensation is<br />

not on.<br />

Failed calibration or<br />

internal problem with<br />

the ventilator.<br />

O2% is high. O2 inlet pressure too<br />

high when Low O2<br />

Source selected.<br />

O2 inlet flow too high<br />

when Low O2 Source<br />

selected.<br />

Verify that the Leak Compensation extended<br />

features option is set to On (default setting is on).<br />

See page 10-12 for instructions.<br />

Immediately contact a certified Pulmonetic<br />

Systems’ service technician.<br />

Verify the low pressure O2 inlet has been<br />

correctly calculated and set using the Input O2<br />

Flow Chart (see page 6-15).<br />

Pulmonetic Systems recommends the use of an<br />

O2 monitor to verify delivered O2%. Adjust the<br />

entrained O2 flow so the monitored value shows<br />

the desired FIO2. (See pages 6-13 and 6-18 for<br />

information on using the Low O2 Source and<br />

O2% features.)<br />
