For Your Safety and That of Your Patients Intended Use
For Your Safety and That of Your Patients Observe the Instructions for Use Any use of the VentView PC program assumes accurate knowledge and strict observation of these Instructions for Use. The program is only intended for the use described. Liability for performance and damage Liability for performance shall always pass to the owner or user if an action is performed which does not conform to the intended use. Dräger cannot be held liable for any damage which occurs as a result of these instructions not being observed. The warranty and liability provisions contained in Dräger's terms of sale and delivery are not extended by the above recommendations.

Information about Safe Use System Requirements
Information about Safe Use
System Requirements
All data displayed is for information purposes only and must not be used on its own to take decisions concerning therapy.
PC or notebook computer: - IBM compatible computer with at least 133 MHz clock rate and 64 MB RAM. - Hard disk with at least 100 MB free storage space. - VentView can run on the operating systems Windows 2000 and Windows XP. - One unused RS 232 serial interface available for connection to the ventilator.
Do not use the PC as an alarm monitor! The alarm messages displayed are no substitute for monitoring the alarms on the ventilator. The PC system does not provide any audible alarm and must not be used for remote monitoring of beds, e.g. in side rooms. In order to guarantee safe data transfer during recording and export of real-time data it is recommended that you close any other application programs before starting these functions. To ensure electrical safety, only the MEDIBUS cable supplied (83 06 488) may be used. To ensure electrical safety, a sufficiently large distance must be maintained between the patient and the PC so that the PC remains outside the patient environment.
To protect the patient The PC or notebook computer used must meet the EMC requirements pursuant to EN 60601-1-2 and must be operated with a power pack which meets the requirements of EN 60601-1 (IEC 60601-1) with regard to electrical safety. Observe the relevant assembly and operating instructions!

Display Concept Trend display Table display
Trend display Trend displays show the course of therapy to date. Set values, measured values and alarms can be traced back to the start of data recording. Trends are displayed over three screen pages, each containing three trend parameters. Example: Ppeak (t), Pmean (t), PEEP (t) - The values of the trend curve can be evaluated at a certain point in time. - Trend time slots can be changed. - It is possible to jump to any given point in time on the trend curves. - Parameter scales and time scales can be configured. - The trend curves can be printed.
102
Description of use: page 18.
Table display For displaying 10 ventilation parameters numerically in chronological order. The table display shows the course of therapy to date. Set values, measured values and alarms can be traced back to the start of data recording. - A table line can be set as a reference and compared with a new line and the percentage deviations can be displayed as a horizon diagram. - Alarms can be traced back in the table. - Table time slots can be changed. - It is possible to jump to any given point in time in the table. - Different parameters can be configured. - The time intervals between parameter lines can be configured. - The table can be printed. - The table can be exported.

- The summary can be printed.
Waveform review For viewing ventilation waveforms previously saved. The three parameters selected in the waveform display can be traced back for the period of time defined prior to recording. - - - - -
Ventilation waveforms can be evaluated later. Time slots can be changed. Time slots can be enlarged/reduced. Waveforms displayed in the window can be printed out. Waveforms displayed in the window can be exported to external application programs. - Saved waveforms can only be viewed while real-time data is not being recorded.
