<strong>Table</strong> 1-3: 700 Series Ventilator keyboards: VENTILATOR SETTINGS<br />

Key/indicator Specifies... Range<br />

Spontaneous (PSV) settings (continued)<br />

EXH<br />

SENSITIVITY<br />

(760 only)<br />

Common settings<br />

The percent <strong>of</strong> peak expiratory<br />

flow at which the ventilator<br />

cycles from inspiration to<br />

exhalation for spontaneous<br />

breaths. The flow at which the<br />

ventilator cycles from<br />

inspiration to exhalation for<br />

PSV breaths. Exhalation begins<br />

when the inspiratory flow is<br />

less than the set value.<br />

To help set EXH SENSITIVITY<br />

appropriately, the peak<br />

inspiratory flow and end<br />

inspiratory flow are displayed<br />

in the message window in PSV.<br />

(To ensure accurate estimates<br />

<strong>of</strong> these flows, it is important<br />

to run SST so that tubing<br />

compliance calculations are<br />

correct.)<br />

PEEP/CPAP Positive end expiratory<br />

pressure/continuous positive<br />

airway pressure. Minimum<br />

pressure maintained during<br />

inspiratory and expiratory<br />

phases.<br />

TRIGGER<br />

SENSITIVITY<br />

(L/min)<br />

% O 2<br />

Inspiratory flow required to<br />

trigger the ventilator to<br />

deliver a breath.<br />

Percentage <strong>of</strong> inspired oxygen<br />

<strong>of</strong> the gas delivered to the<br />

patient.<br />

1 to 80%<br />

0 to 35 cmH 2 O (0 to 35 hPa)<br />

Accuracy:<br />

± (2 cmH 2O + 4% <strong>of</strong> setting)<br />

1 to 20 L/min<br />

21 to 100%<br />

Accuracy: ± 3% full scale<br />

NOTE:<br />

It may take several minutes for the oxygen percentage<br />

to stabilize.<br />
