DEFINITION
A ventilation mode where the ventilator delivers machine breaths at a
set rate. In Control Mode, patient triggers are not allowed.
Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. The ventilator continuously
maintains Positive gas pressure through the patient circuit during the
entire breath cycle.
A ventilation mode where the patient triggers all breaths. Available
breath types are Pressure Support and Spontaneous.
A set of 12 dot-matrix displays used to show monitored data, alarm
messages and Extended Feature menu items.
Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory. Nonvolatile
electronic memory that is used by the ventilator to maintain calibration
data, control setting and other data when power is not applied to the
ventilator.
Any condition noted in the ventilator’s event trace. This may include
both error conditions and normal operational events.
See Tidal Volume.
A maneuver which holds the expiratory phase of a delivered breath for
a duration sufficient to determine the AutoPEEP of a patient.
A set of ventilator controls and options that are not associated with
front panel controls. Extended Features are accessed through a menu
shown in the display window.
See Total Breath Rate, monitored.
The velocity of gas delivery to the patient, quantified in lpm.
A patient effort in which the amount of bias flow routed into the
patient’s lungs exceeds the Sensitivity setting. A flow trigger will result
in delivery of an Assist or Patient breath, according to the ventilation
mode.
Total Breath Rate divided by the average Exhaled Tidal Volume.
Total Breath Rate divided by the average Exhaled Tidal Volume, and
the Total Breath Rate.
The ratio of the inspiration period to the expiration period for a breath.
The lesser value is normalized to 1.
Calculated Inspiratory:Expiratory ratio, based upon the Inspiratory
Time setting and the Breath Rate setting
A maneuver which holds the inspiratory phase of a volume delivered
breath for a duration sufficient to determine ∆ Pres pressure and static
lung compliance of the patient.

Leak Compensation improves triggering when a circuit leak is present.
Light Emitting Diode. An indicator that is illuminated on the front panel.
