2 Safety
Risk of injury if dead space is not taken into consideration!
The breathing circuits for the device have different dead spaces.
The use of additional accessories between the ventilation hose
and patient (e.g., humidifiers, nebulizers and goosenecks)
increases the dead space. Failure to take dead space into
consideration may lead to insufficient ventilation, especially in the
ventilation of infants with very small tidal volumes.
Take dead space into consideration when choosing the
ventilation parameters.
Do not use the device for the ventilation of premature babies
(born before the end of the 36th week of pregnancy).
Risk of injury from autotriggering!
Automatic triggering of the inspiration trigger by artifacts
(autotrigger) can result in hyperventilation of the patient.
Reduce the sensitivity of the inspiration trigger in case of
autotriggers.
Risk of injury from incompatible endotracheal tubes!
The use of too high ventilation pressures with incompatible
endotracheal tubes can result in gastric insufflation and cause
injury to the patient.
Only use compatible endotracheal tubes.
2.3.5 Safe handling of oxygen
Warning
Risk of fire if oxygen is used in combination with combustible
substances!
The combination of oxygen and combustible substances may lead
to spontaneous explosions. Where ventilation is inadequate,
oxygen may build up in the environment (e.g., clothing, hair, bed
linen) and cause fires and thereby injuries to the patient, user and
bystanders.
Do not smoke.
Do not use open flames.
Ensure adequate ventilation.
Keep the device and screwed unions free of oil and grease.
Always close the SD card cover again following the insertion
and removal of the SD card.
