Monnal T75 user manual
The oxygen therapy function is available for all categories of patients treated with
Monnal T75
(adults,
children and infants) where they are connected to the high pressure O2 network (the function is dis-
abled in low pressure O2). It requires the use of a humidifier and nasal cannula (or tracheotomy tube)
specific to high throughput oxygen therapy.
Note:
Please refer to the patient/machine interface manual.
Set-up
1.
Install the humidifier on the
Monnal T75
stand;
Note:
Place the humidifier lower than the patient to prevent water flowing into the cir-
cuit.
2.
Perform an automatic test with a dual branch circuit (see Automatic tests on page 22).
3.
Disconnect the double-limb circuit and set up the required patient circuit on the inspiratory limb
of the ventilator
(52)
and on the humidifier.

4.
Connect the patient/machine interface between the humidifier and the patient.
5.
Check that the humidifier is in working order before switching it on.
6.
Enable the Oxygen therapy function and set the desired flow rate.
Note:
Humidify the flow generated by the device.
CAUTION:
Oxygen therapy is not a ventilation mode and must be used under supervision.
The patient breathes in a fully autonomous manner, this is why:
•
Apnea ventilation is not ensured in the event of a patient’s respiratory arrest.
•
No alarm is set off if the patient circuit is disconnected.
CAUTION:
Monitored FiO2 is the FiO2 delivered by the ventilator. If the patient’s inspiratory
flow is greater than the flow set-point or if the nasal cannula are not properly positioned, then
monitored FiO2 is potentially higher than that inhaled by the patient.
