Breath Target
The selected ventilation mode, and the selection of breath target (volume or pressure)
predetermines the parameter availability for the BPM, Vt, and PIP parameter windows.
Volume targeting
assures a constant volume is delivered to the patient in the inspiratory time
using a constant flow.
Pressure targeting
provides a constant airway pressure for the duration of the inspiratory time
Leak Compensation
Leak Compensation provides flow during the expiratory phase to maintain the baseline
pressure in patients that are breathing spontaneously, but have a leaking airway or facemask
To avoid nuisance alarms in patients with active leaks, Leak Compensation suppresses he
following alarms:
•
Incomplete Exhalation (Alarm #3091)
•
Insufficient Flow (Alarm #2095)
The following table lists the ventilator modes and their availability in the ZOLL ventilator
models, and gives the options and ranges for the ventilation mode parameters:
