Message Description<br />

Turn knob to select either Adult tubing or Pediatric<br />

tubing and then press ACCEPT.<br />

Warning<br />

Incorrectly specifying the ventilator breathing<br />

circuit type during EST can cause an<br />

inappropriate sensitivity for the leak test and<br />

occlusion alarm. <strong>Covidien</strong> recommends using<br />

pediatric circuits when ventilating patients with<br />

5-mm or smaller internal-diameter artificial<br />

airways.<br />

NOTE:<br />

To ensure that compliance compensation<br />

functions correctly, run EST with the circuit<br />

configured as intended for use on the patient.<br />

Turn knob to select appropriate ET (endotracheal<br />

tube) size, and then press ACCEPT.<br />

Warning<br />

Specifying an ET tube size that is too large can<br />

cause premature termination <strong>of</strong> breaths on very<br />

small pediatric patients. During normal<br />

ventilation, you can use the MENU key’s User<br />

settings function to change the ET tube size (see<br />

Chapter 6).<br />
