Operating the Ventilator
Warning: This device should be operated only by qualified personnel
under approved medical direction.
Warning: Use only as directed. Improper usage or unauthorized
modification of this product may result in user or patient injury.
Warning: Unit is not MRI compatible.
Warning: Not for use in a toxic environment or in the presence of
flammable anesthetics.
●
Connect to an oxygen source:
Located on the right side of the ventilator and marked with text is a diameter index
safety system (DISS) fitting. Connect a 50 psi oxygen source with a minimum of 40
LPM flow capacity to this fitting. The unit comes with a single use supply hose made of
PVC. A rubber reusable hose may be purchased and is recommended. See
accessories.
Warning: Proper tidal volumes may not be provided with a gas source
not meeting the specified requirements on page 4.
Warning: This device operates with medical gases under pressure,
including oxygen. Do not use this device while smoking or near open
flames or flammable materials.
Caution: In order to provide optimal performance, check all gas
supplies to assure that only clean, dry gas that is free of contaminants
and/or liquids is used.
The gas source may also be a high flow air/oxygen blend meeting the flow and pressure
requirements.
Select the proper inspiratory time:
●
Press the ON/OFF button to activate the unit. The EPV200 has the options of a
2 second inspiratory time (this is used on adults with tidal volume requirements of more
than 600 ml) and a 1 second inspiratory time (this is used on children or adults). Push
the appropriate Inspiratory Time button and a green LED will show the selected
inspiratory time.
Select the desired breaths per minute (BPM):
The EPV200 has a BPM range of 0 and 5 to 20 with a 2 second inspiratory time, and a
BPM range of 0 and 5 to 30 with a 1 second inspiratory time. Use the up and down
arrows above or below the text "BPM" to set the desired BPM. The BPM setting will be
displayed in the window above the selection arrows. The 0 BPM setting is used when
the patient is breathing spontaneously.
The American Heart Association Guidelines 2005 recommend a BPM rate of 8 to 12 for
an adult and 12 to 20 for a child. These are recommendations. Physician or medical
director instructions should always be followed.
