1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
This manual contains information for servicing the Puritan Bennett™ 980 Series Venti-
lator. Before servicing the ventilator, thoroughly read both the Operator’s Manual and
Service Manual.
1- 1
Introduction
• Type BF
• Mobile
• Internally powered
• IP21 equipment
• Continuous operation
• Not suitable for use with flammable medical gases (not AP or APG)
The ventilator system uses a graphical user interface (GUI) and breath
delivery unit (BDU) for entering patient settings and delivering breaths to the
patient. The GUI contains electronics capable of transferring the clinician’s
input (by touching the screen) to the BDU where pneumatic and electronic
systems generate the breathing parameters.
Note:
Federal law (USA) restricts the sale of this device except by or on the order of a
physician.
1.5 Contraindications
Do not operate the ventilator in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environ-
ment.
Note:
No parts of the ventilator system contain latex.
Note:
The components in the gas pathway that can become contaminated with bodily fluids
or expired gases during both normal and single fault conditions are:
• External inspiratory filter
The typical ventilator system ships with the following packing list. Depending
upon the ventilator system purchased, your list may vary.
Quantity Item
1 Inspiratory filter
1 Expiratory filter
1 Condensate vial
1 Power cord
1 Operator’s Manual CD
1 Flex arm
1 Drain bag
The Proximal Flow Sensor is used to measure low flows and pressures associated
with neonatal ventilation. Reference the Operator’s Manual Proximal Flow
Addendum if the ventilator is configured with this option for more information.
WARNING:
Use of the compressor in altitudes higher or barometric pressures lower than
those specified could compromise ventilator/compressor operation.
An optional DC compressor provides compressed air, should loss of wall or
bottled air supply occur. In the presence of AC power, the compressor receives
DC power from its own power supply. If there is no AC power, the compressor
receives DC power from its internal battery.

This portion of the manual requires access to soft copy of the 3-dimensional
(3D) models of the ventilator. To access 3D models of the ventilator for inter-
active viewing, launch straight from the CD. These 3D models may require a
player download for initial access to the files.
Covidien provides multiple points of access to the models.
A menu appears after launching the player. Each item on the menu bar pro-
vides a different type of model control or interaction.
3D tools menu—Use to rotate, spin, pan, zoom, walk, fly, adjust camera prop-
erties, use 3D measurement tools, and add 3D comments
Tree—Use to toggle on or off the existing assembly and subassembly tree and list
of model views
For the CD executable file models, there is much more sophistication in terms
of access, ease of use, options, and speed. It does require a player. Menu
options are slightly different, but the online helps are extensive and provide
sufficient direction. The primary tool is the Navigate Toolbar, which allows for
model selection, as well as rotation, pan, and zoom, as well as identifying part
numbers for specific parts within the model. To make this toolbar available
down the right-hand side of the window, select this option from the tear-off
menu option in the VIEW pull-down menu.
From Patient port—Connect patient circuit from patient to expiratory module here.
Prescription Only—US federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
Flammable—Warning: Keep away from fire or flame. Oxygen rich environments accelerate combus-
tibility.
IEC Ingress protection classification—Protected against ingress of fingers or similar objects and
protected from condensation.
CSA certified—Authorized to bear the CSA certification mark signifying the product has been evalu-
ated to the applicable ANSI/Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (UL) and CSA standards for use in the US
and Canada.
The graphical user interface (GUI) touchscreen incorporates a 15” display that
rotates 170° about a vertical axis in either direction. The GUI can also be tilted
Control Keys
3. Alarm volume key — Adjusts the alarm volume. The alarm volume cannot be
turned OFF.
5. Inspiratory pause key — Initiates an inspiratory pause which closes the inspira-
tory and exhalation valves and extends the inspiratory phase of a mandatory
breath for the purposes of measuring end inspiratory pressure (PI END) for calcula-
tion of plateau pressure (PPL), static compliance (CSTAT), and static resistance
(RSTAT)
6. Expiratory pause key — Initiates an expiratory pause which extends the expira-
tory phase of the current breath in order to measure total PEEP (PEEPTOT).
7. Alarm reset key — Clears active alarms or resets high-priority alarms and
cancels an active alarm silence. An alarm reset is recorded in the alarm log if there
is an active alarm. DEVICE ALERT alarms cannot be reset.
8. Alarm silence key — Silences alarms for two minutes. Touch Cancel to halt the
alarm silence.
Visual Indicators
Visual alarm indicators vary both in color and in frequency. During normal oper-
ation, the omni-directional LED on the top of the GUI appears green in color, in
a steadily lit state. If an alarm occurs, the LED flashes in a color corresponding to
the priority of the alarm. If another alarm occurs concurrently with an existing
alarm, the LED displays the color corresponding to the highest priority level. If
the alarm deescalates, the latched area (located on either side of the alarm LED
indicator) of the alarm LED displays the color of the highest priority alarm while
the center of the LED displays the color of the current alarm priority.
The alarm silence function has two visual indicators — the ALARM SILENCE key
on the GUI bezel glows yellow during an alarm silence interval, and a visual
countdown timer displays, showing the amount of time the alarm silence inter-
val has remaining.
Symbol Description

1.13 Connectors
The ventilator incorporates the following connectors:
• Ventilator outlet port (To patient) — A coaxial 15 mm (ID) / 22 mm (OD)
conical connection to which the external inspiratory bacteria filter attaches.
• Exhalation port (From patient) — The expiratory limb of the patient circuit
attaches to the inlet of the expiratory bacteria filter. This port is compatible with
a standard 22mm (OD) conical connection.
• Proximal Flow sensor — The optional Proximal Flow Sensor measures flow and
pressure at the patient wye. The keyed pneumatic connector with a locking
feature prevents inadvertent disconnection.

2. The compliance levels in the ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz and in the frequency range 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz
are intended to decrease the likelihood mobile/portable communications equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently
brought into patient areas. For this reason, an additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the separation distance for transmit-
ters in these frequency ranges.
3. The compliance levels in the ISM frequency bands between 150 kHz and 80 MHz and in the frequency range 80 MHz to 2.5 GHz
are intended to decrease the likelihood mobile/portable communications equipment could cause interference if it is inadvertently
brought into patient areas. For this reason, an additional factor of 10/3 is used in calculating the separation distance for transmit-

4. Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and land mobile radios, ama-
teur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted theoretically with accuracy. To assess the electro-
magnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey should be considered. If the measured field
strength in the location in which the 980 Series Ventilator is used exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the 980 Series
Ventilator should be observed to verify normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be nec-
essary, such as reorienting or relocating the ventilator.
5. Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 10 V/m.
The ventilator is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF distur-
bances are controlled. The customer or the operator of the ventilator can help prevent electromag-
netic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile RF
communications equipment (transmitters) and the ventilator as recommended below, according to
the maximum output power of the communications equipment.
For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation distance d
in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the transmitter where P is
the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1 At 80 MHz and 800 MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
NOTE 2 These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic propagation is affected by absorption
and reflection from structures, objects and people.
WARNING:
The use of accessories, sensors, and cables other than those specified with the
exception of parts sold by Covidien as replacements for internal components,
may result in inaccurate readings of the ventilator and increased emission or
decreased immunity of the ventilator.

The gas supplies connected to the ventilator must be capable of delivering 200 L/
min flow with the supply pressure between 35 psig and 87 psig (241.8 kPa to
599.8 kPa). These supplies may be compressed gas from an external source (e.g.:
wall or bottled) air or oxygen. These pressures are required for the following fit-
tings: NIST, BOC, DISS, DISS Female. Pressures greater than 50 psig are required for
the following fittings: Air Liquide, SIS, and Dräger. An optional compressor for
installation in the base is capable of delivering flows of 140 L/min (BTPS) and
minute volumes of up to 40 L/min (BTPS).
Gas mixing occurs in an accumulator, which incorporates a relief valve to
prevent excessive pressure. A one-way valve allows a maximum reverse flow into
the gas supply system of up to 100 mL/min under normal conditions.
Air and oxygen hoses connect directly to inlet fittings at the rear of the breath deliv-
ery unit (BDU). The ventilator meters the flow of each air and oxygen gas via Pro-
portional Solenoid (PSOL) valves to achieve the desired mix in the Mix Module. The
ventilator monitors the flow through each PSOL via separate flow sensors and
adjusts the flow to ensure the accuracy of the mix. The blended gas then flows to
the Inspiratory Module.
The ventilator meters the blended gas in the Inspiratory Module via the Breath
Delivery PSOL and monitors it via the Breath Delivery Flow Sensor to ensure the
ventilator delivers gas to the patient according to settings specified by the operator.
The ventilator corrects any delivered tidal volumes to standard respiratory condi-
tions (BTPS), thus providing the clinician with consistent data for interpretation.
Pressure transducers in the inspiratory pneumatic system (PI) and exhalation com-
partment (PE) monitor pressures for accurately controlling breath delivery. The ven-
tilator utilizes a safety valve on the Inspiratory Module to vent excess pressure and
allow the patient to breathe room air, should a serous malfunction occur.
Breathing gas exits the Inspiratory Module, passes through an internal bacteria
filter, and leaves the ventilator via the outlet (To Patient) port. The ventilator
breathing circuit, including the external bacteria filter and humidification
means, carries the breathing gas to the patient.
Exhaled gas leaves the expiratory limb of the breathing circuit, entering the exha-
lation (From Patient) port. The gas passes through a condensate vial, the expiratory
bacteria filter, and the exhalation valve assembly. The exhalation valve assembly
includes a pressure sensing port, a flow sensor, and the exhaust port. The gas flows
through the exhalation valve, which actively controls PEEP while minimizing pres-
sure overshoot and relieves excess pressures, and out of the ventilator.
• The GUI CPU controls the primary display, operator input devices, and the alarm
system. The status display, a small, non-interactive LCD display located on the
Breath Delivery Unit (BDU) is controlled by its own processor. Reference Status

4.1 Overview
This chapter describes basic operational information useful in evaluating the
functionality of the Puritan Bennett™ 980 Series Ventilator. This chapter is not
a substitute for the Installation Instructions or the Operator’s Manual.
AC Power
WARNING:
Even though the 980 Series Ventilator meets the standards listed in the
Product Specification, the internal Lithium-ion battery of the device is
considered Dangerous Goods (DG) Class 9 - Miscellaneous, when transported
in commerce. The 980 Series Ventilator and/or the associated Lithium-ion
battery are subject to strict transport conditions under the Dangerous Goods
Regulation for air transport (IATA: International Air Transport Association),
International Maritime Dangerous Goods code for sea and the European
Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by
Road (ADR) for Europe. Private individuals who transport the device are
excluded from these regulations although for air transport some
requirements may apply.

Service Basics
WARNING:
To avoid electrical shock hazard, connect the ventilator power cord into a
grounded AC power outlet. If used in the U.S., connect the ventilator to an AC
receptacle marked “Hospital Only” or “Hospital Grade” to ensure grounding
reliability.
The ventilator is normally AC-powered. To operate on AC power, connect the
power cord to a grounded electrical power source.
Battery Power
Battery Installation
WARNING:
Use only Covidien-branded batteries. Using other manufacturer’s brands
could result in the batteries operating the ventilator for less than the
specified amount of time or could cause a fire hazard.
WARNING:
One primary battery must be installed at all times in the BDU’s primary
battery slot for proper ventilator operation. The ventilator will not complete
the startup process without the primary battery installed.
As a factory-trained service technician, install the ventilator’s primary battery
before patient use. The ventilator will not complete Power on Self Test
(POST) if the battery is not present, and ventilation is prohibited. Ensure the
battery is fully charged before placing the ventilator into clinical usage. The
battery back-up system for the ventilator requires one primary battery and
accommodates an extended battery. Backup power is supplied to the ventila-
tor in the event of an AC power loss.
One extended battery slot is available for the ventilator. If both primary and
extended ventilator batteries are present, these batteries can power the venti-
lator for two hours (one hour for the primary battery and one hour for the
extended battery) under the environmental conditions described. Reference
Environmental Specifications, p. 2-6.
Battery Charge
or depletion state of the battery. When using battery power, the ventilator
operates from its extended batteries first, if present, and then switches to the
primary batteries.
The ventilator continues operating as set when the ventilator switches from AC
power to battery power and illuminates an indicator on the status display alert-
ing the operator that the ventilator is now operating on battery power and the
touchscreen displays an AC POWER LOSS alarm. A medium priority alarm
annunciates when the estimated remaining run-time for the ventilator drops
to ten (10) minutes and a high priority alarm annunciates when the estimated
remaining run-time drops below five (5) minutes.
• Self Tests — All self tests must successfully pass prior to releasing the ventilator
for clinical use. Reference Self Tests, p. 5-20.
– Short Self Test (SST) — This is a test that checks circuit integrity, calculates
circuit compliance and filter resistance, and checks ventilator function.
POST occurs at power on, after power loss, or when the ventilator detects an
internal fault. POST verifies system integrity. POST routines are ordered so that
each routine requires successively more operational hardware than the last.
This sequence allows POST to systematically exclude electronic components as
causes of system malfunctions.
Every time the ventilator is powered on or resets, and at the beginning of Short
Self Test (SST) and Extended Self Test (EST), it performs Power On Self Test
(POST). The GUI and BDU each have an independent POST. POST checks the
integrity of the GUI and Breath Delivery subsystems and communication chan-
nels without operator intervention, taking approximately 15 seconds to com-
plete.
The ventilator performs two (2) phases of POST.
1. Phase 1 (CPU) — Tests the CPU core, on-board peripherals, and non-volatile
memory.
• Discrete visual indicators on the BDU and GUI CPU PCBAs that indicate the current
test and step number.
• The VENT INOP indicator on the BDU signals that the user can press TEST to trigger
service mode.
During the different phases of POST, specific LEDs on the GUI LED array and
the BDU LED array illuminate. The ventilator turns on and then off audio,
visual, and remote alarms after verifying the software kernel (Phase 1) to
ensure an alarm sounds if a CPU failure occurs. Reference Indications of POST
User Interface, p. 4-4, to see which indicators are active during each phase of
POST.
The ventilator does not provide ventilatory support to the patient during POST.
The ventilator alarms if POST lasts longer than 15 seconds or if it detects an
unexpected fault is detected. POST is designed to minimize the delay until
normal ventilation begins and to provide immediate notification, should the
ventilator detect a fault.
During POST, the ventilator closes proportional solenoid valves (PSOLs) and
opens the exhalation valve and safety valve to allow the patient to breathe
room air, and the ventilator displays a message that POST is in progress.
Once POST successfully completes, the ventilator begins startup (following
power-up) or normal ventilation begins., For exceptions to startup, review the
list when the ventilator detects any of the following:
• Service mode access.
• An uncorrected short self test (SST or EST) failure or non-overridden self test (SST
or EST) alert.
• The ventilator is turned on for the initial power up following a software upgrade,
but has not yet successfully completed one of the following: exhalation valve cal-
Note:
When a compressor is installed and wall air is not present, there may be a short
interval following a successful POST before the compressor achieves operational
pressures. If so, the ventilator annunciates a NO AIR SUPPLY alarm, which resets as
soon as the compressor charges the system to operational pressure.
Reference Extended Self Test (EST), p. 5-21, for information on Extended Self
Test. Reference Short Self Test (SST), p. 5-30, for information on Short Self
Test.
WARNING:
To avoid possible injury, only connect devices that comply with IEC 60601-1
standard to any of the ports at the rear of the ventilator, with the exception
of passive memory storage devices (“flash drives”) and serial-to-USB adapter
cables. If using a serial-to-USB adapter cable, it must be connected to an IEC
60601-1-compliant device.
WARNING:
To avoid possible injury, do not connect a device that is attached to the
patient to any of the non-clinical ports listed below when the ventilator is
ventilating a patient.
For complete details related to ports for transferral of patient data, read the
Operator’s Manual. Reference Data Logs, p. 5-17, for details on accessing
diagnostic logs.
Use the RS-232 port for obtaining patient data or bedside monitor.
Use the Ethernet port to access various data and service logs.
Use the remote alarm or nurse call port to remotely annunciate medium and hight priority alarm
status of the ventilator. Reference the remote alarm manufacturer’s instructions for proper nurse call
connection details.
Use the USB ports for transferring saved screen captures or for receiving serial data when a USB port
has been configured as a serial port via a serial-over-USB protocol.
Use the HDMI port to connect to an external display, also useful for screen capture.
The Service Port is proprietary and only Covidien personnel may use it.

and Touchscreen calibrations separately. Select STOP to halt testing.
Note:
If the ventilator has not reached operating temperature from recent usage, allow it to
warm up for at least 15 minutes in Service Mode prior to performing calibration.
Note:
All system leaks must be eliminated prior to performing any calibrations.
Table 5-2. Calibration Functions
Atmospheric pressure Run this test separately. Calibrates the atmospheric pressure transduc-
er. Reference Atmospheric Pressure Calibration, p. 5-10.
Touchscreen Run this test separately. Calibrates the touchscreen and controller to
the target system. Reference Touch Screen Calibration, p. 5-11.
Flow sensor Calibrates both oxygen and air flow sensors against the exhalation
flow sensor. Reference Flow Sensor Calibration, p. 5-13.
Exhalation valve Calibrates the exhalation valve. Reference Exhalation Valve Calibration,
p. 5-14.
Note:
The ventilator ships from the factory after successfully completing all calibrations, EST
and SST tests. The CALIBRATION COMPLETE message and the date of the most recent
successful calibration appears for all calibration tests.
5. Allow the barometric pressure reading to stabilize, then input the pressure (in mmHg)
measure by this external barometer as prompted.
6. Select ACCEPT.
Note:
If the calibration fails, rerun it after correctly inputting the barometric pressure. If it
continues to fail, refer to the Troubleshooting chapter.
Note:
Atmospheric pressure calibration failure does not prevent ventilation. The upper limit
is 830 mmHg and the lower limit is 510 mmHg.
This calibrates the touchscreen. Completing this process tunes the sensitivity
of the touch interface for optimal performance.
2. Select CALIBRATION.
5. Allow the ventilator time to perform calibration. Do not touch the touchscreen
during calibration.
Note:
If the calibration fails, rerun it. If it continues to fail, refer to the Troubleshooting
chapter.
Note:
Touchscreen calibration failure does not prevent ventilation.
This function builds a table of flow sensor offsets. The calibration requires a
gold standard test circuit. A system leak is a common source of failure, partic-
ularly expiratory filter leaks.
Note:
If the ventilator has not reached operating temperature from recent usage, allow
ventilator to warm up for at least 15 minutes in Service Mode before performing this
calibration.
Note:
It is very important the ventilator passes the EST leak test prior to a flow sensor
calibration.
To calibrate flow sensors
1. Connect air and oxygen to the appropriate inlets.
4. Securely attach the gold test circuit to both the to and from patient ports.
9. Select ACCEPT.
11. If the calibration fails, verify firm attachment of the test circuit, secure connection
of the expiratory filter, and ensure the system is free of leaks. Then rerun the test.
Reference Troubleshooting, p. 8-1, if the calibration continues to fail.
This function builds an exhalation valve table. The calibration requires a gold
standard test circuit.
Note:
If the ventilator has not reached operating temperature from recent usage, allow
ventilator to warm up for at least 15 minutes in Service Mode before performing this
calibration.
Note:
It is very important the ventilator passes the EST leak test prior to the exhalation valve
calibration.
2. Securely attach the gold test circuit to both the to and from patient ports.
4. Select CALIBRATION.
7. Select ACCEPT.
9. If the calibration fails, verify firm attachment of the test circuit, secure connection
of the expiratory filter, the system is free of leaks, and then rerun the test. If it con-
tinues to fail, refer to the Troubleshooting section.
Note:
A system leak is a common source of failure, particularly expiratory filter leaks. Ensure
the expiratory filter condensate vial is secured tightly, the drain port is capped, the
filter is mounted securely to the ventilator, and the test circuit is securely attached.
Many service scenarios require calibration of the oxygen sensor. This calibra-
tion is not listed under the CALIBRATION menu option in Service Mode.
Oxygen sensor calibration may be performed by either the qualified service
technician or by the clinician. Clinicians should calibrate the oxygen sensor
every 24 hours and before clinical use.
Note:
If the ventilator has not reached operating temperature from recent usage, allow
ventilator to warm up for at least 15 minutes in Service Mode before performing this
calibration.
Note:
The oxygen sensor can possess three states: Enabled, Disabled, and Calibrate. The
oxygen sensor is enabled at ventilator startup regardless if New Patient or Same
Patient setup is selected.
5. Select Accept.
4. Touch Calibrate for the oxygen sensor. The remaining time for calibration appears
as a moving blue bar in the patient data area.
5. Allow the full two minutes to elapse in order for the calibration to complete.
2. Calibrate the oxygen sensor. Reference To calibrate the oxygen sensor, p. 5-16.
3. Connect the oxygen hose to a second known good 100% oxygen source.
4. Set O2% to each of the following values, and allow one minute after each for the
monitored value to stabilize: 21%, 40%, 90%
5. Watch the touchscreen to ensure the value for the delivered oxygen is within 3%
of each setting within one minute of selecting each setting.
Table 5-3. Log Functions
System Diagnostic Log This log records up to 256 diagnostic codes related to unexpected
conditions detected during POST and/or background checks,
including alerts and failures, including the date and time when an
event occurred, the type of event, the diagnostic code(s) associated
with the event, and any notes. The ventilator does not clear the log
with each new patient setup.
System Communication Log This log records up to 256 entries of diagnostic information gener-
ated during GUI and BDU communication events, including the
time and date of the system event, the test or event, system code,
type/port, internal and external communication between the BDU
and GUI processors, and other events such as a ventilator clock
reset.
EST/SST Diagnostic Log This log stores data on overall EST and SST test outcomes, It displays
the time, date, test/event, system code type, and related notes.
Settings Log This log records a maximum of 500 changes to ventilator settings
with respective time and date, old and new settings, and alarm
resets in the log. This allow s retrospective analysis of ventilator-
patient management. The ventilator allows access to the alarm log
during normal ventilation and in Service Mode. The ventilator clears
the log with each new patient setup.
Alarms Log The alarms log can retain up to 1000 of the most recent alarm
events, whether they have been reset or auto-reset, the priority
level, alarm volume setting, ambient volume and their analysis mes-
sages. The ventilator creates a date- and time-stamped entry in the
log whenever it detects, escalates, resets, or auto-resets an alarm
condition. The ventilator creates an entry when it begins, ends, or
cancels an alarm silence interval. If one or more alarms occur after
the last access of the alarm log, a triangular yellow icon appears on
the GUI. The ventilator stores the alarm log in non-volatile memory
(NoVRAM), allowing re-display after cycling the ventilator’s power.
The ventilator allows access to the alarm log during normal ventila-
tion and in Service Mode. The ventilator clears the log with each
new patient setup.
General Event Log The general event log contains ventilator-related information not
found in any other logs. It includes time and date of compressor ON
and OFF, changes in alarm volume, when the ventilator entered
and exited Stand-By, GUI key presses, and warning notifications.
The General event log can display up to 256 entries. The ventilator
does not clear the log with each new patient setup.
Service Log This log stores manually entered service records by trained service
technicians in charge of preventive maintenance and repairs. It con-
tains the nature and type of the service, reference numbers specific
to the service event (for example, sensor and actuator ID numbers),
manual and automatic serial number input, and the time and date
of the service event. The ventilator does not clear the log with each
new patient setup.
Patient Data Log The ventilator records every minute (up to 4320 patient data
entries) consisting of date and time of the entry, patient data name,
and the patient data value during ventilator operation, storing it in
the patient data log.The ventilator clears the log with each new
patient setup.
The ventilator may or may not allow access to ventilator logs during normal
ventilation, but does allow access to all logs when in Service Mode.
To view ventilator logs
1. Access Service Mode. Reference Service Mode Access, p. 5-1.
5. Edit the required fields or select from the pull-down options to complete the entry.
Extended Self Test (EST) This is an extensive sequence of tests that detect any system
faults and verifies the integrity of the ventilator’s subsystems.
All tests must run in sequence using RUN ALL without inter-
ruption and successfully complete without any failures. Ref-
erence Extended Self Test (EST), p. 5-21.
Manual Tests This test suite is designed to allow users to selectively verify
the operational integrity of subsystems not included in EST or
SST: nurse call, external USB ports, vent inop, and manual
control. Reference Manual Tests, p. 5-27.
Short Self Test (SST) This sequence of tests verifies the ventilator is ready for clin-
ical use. All tests must run in sequence using RUN ALL
without interruption and successfully complete without any
failures. Reference Short Self Test (SST), p. 5-30.
Follow all identified guidelines when performing either self test. Inspect all
equipment required for any self test to ensure it is not damaged in any way.
1. Collect all required equipment prior to performing any self test of the ventilator.
Successful self test is not possible without the use of the listed equipment itemized
under each test.
3. Connect the ventilator to AC power using the hospital-grade power cord until
completion of any self test.
5. Ensure both air and oxygen sources register pressure between 35 and 87 psi (241
to 599 kpa).
2. Select SELF TESTS from the top tabs on the monitoring screen.
WARNING:
Always disconnect the ventilator from the patient before running EST. Running
EST while the ventilator is connected to the patient can injure the patient.
WARNING:
A fault identified during this test indicates the ventilator or an associated
component is defective. Rectify the fault and perform any required repairs
prior to releasing the ventilator for patient use, unless it can be determined
with certainty that the defect cannot create a hazard for the patient, or add
to the risks which may arise from other hazards.
EST is a more thorough test than SST, and is designed to detect system faults.
EST also checks ventilator subsystems including memory, safety system, front
panel controls and indicators, digital and analog electronics, power supplies,
transducers, and the ventilator’s primary battery. EST testing takes about 15
minutes.
Perform EST during any of the listed conditions.
• Prior to initial installation of a new ventilator
During EST, the ventilator displays current EST status, including the test currently
in progress, results of completed tests, and measured data (where applicable).
The ventilator logs EST results, and that information is available following power
loss. The ventilator disables several off-screen keys located on the bezel of the
GUI during EST.
• Alarm silence
• Alarm reset
• Manual inspiration
• Inspiratory pause
• Expiratory pause
EST requires operator participation. The ventilator records EST results in the EST
results log.
Note:
Always perform EST with an adult-sized exhalation filter installed. Attempts to run EST
with a NeoMode filter can cause some EST tests to fail. Run tests either as a group or
as single tests for troubleshooting purposes. After completing all individual tests, run
EST with passing results prior to releasing the ventilator for clinical use.
Note:
If using Air Liquide™*, Dräger™*, and SIS air/oxygen hose assemblies, certain EST
tests may fail when using supply pressures less than 50 psi (345 kPa), based on
excessive hose restriction.
EST Sequence
Note:
If the ventilator has not reached normal operating temperature from recent usage,
allow it to warm up for at least 15 minutes in service mode prior to running EST to
ensure accurate testing.
To perform EST
1. Review and perform all self test prerequisites. Reference Self Test Prerequisites, p. 5-20.
4. Verify all CALIBRATION tests under the CALIBRATION tab have passed.
6. Select the SELF TESTS tab from the horizontal banner at the top of the monitoring
screen.
8. Select RUN ALL to run all tests in sequence or select the desired individual test.
9. Select ACCEPT.
10. When prompted, remove the inspiratory filter and connect the gold standard circuit.

WARNING:
SST checks the patient circuit (including tubing, humidification device, and
filters) for leaks, measures the circuit compliance, and checks filter and circuit
resistance. To prevent inaccurate results, always run SST with the patient
system configured exactly as it will be used on the patient (for example, same
tubing and accessories). Do not change the circuit type or add accessories to
the patient circuit after running SST.
WARNING:
To ensure ventilation that correctly compensates for circuit resistance and
compliance, do not exit SST and begin normal ventilation until the entire SST
has been successfully completed with the circuit to be used attached.
WARNING:
Incorrectly specifying the patient circuit type or humidification type (or
changing patient circuit type after running SST) can affect the accuracy of
compliance calculation and delivered and measured exhaled tidal volume.
WARNING:
When changing any accessories in the patient circuit or changing the patient
circuit itself, run SST to check for leaks and to ensure the correct circuit
compliance and resistance values are used in ventilator calculations.
SST is a short and simple sequence of tests that takes about five minutes and
verifies proper operation of breath delivery hardware (including pressure and
flow sensors, checks the patient circuit (including tubing, humidification
device, and filters) for leaks, and measures the circuit compliance and resis-
tance. SST also checks the resistance of the expiratory filter. SST, in normal
mode, can only be performed at start up, prior to initiation of ventilation.
Perform SST during any of the listed circumstances.
• Prior to initial installation of a new ventilator
• Every 15 days
The ventilator does not allow access to SST if it senses a patient is connected.
During SST, the ventilator displays the current SST status, including the test cur-
rently in progress, results of completed tests, and measured data (where appli-
cable). The ventilator logs SST results, and that information is available following
a power failure. The ventilator disables several off-screen keys located on the
bezel of the GUI during SST.
• Alarm silence
• Alarm reset
• Manual inspiration
• Inspiratory pause
• Expiratory pause
• Humidifier, if applicable
• Two gas sources (air and oxygen) connected to the ventilator) at a pressure
between 35 psi and 87 psi (241.3 kPa and 599.8 kPa).
Note:
If using Air Liquide™*, Dräger™*, and SIS air/oxygen hose assemblies, certain SST
tests may fail when using supply pressures less than 50 psi (345 kPa), based on
excessive hose restriction.

If a complete SST is interrupted and ventilation was allowed before starting
SST, normal ventilation is allowed if:
• SST did not detect any failures or alerts before the interruption, and
• there were no changes to the circuit type at the start of the interrupted SST.
During SST, the ventilator displays the current SST status, including the test
currently in progress, and results of completed tests. Test data are available in
Service Mode where applicable or are displayed on the screen. The ventilator
logs SST results, and that information is available following power loss. The
alarm silence and alarm reset keys are disabled during SST, as well as the
Manual Inspiration, Inspiratory Pause, and Expiratory Pause keys.

Troubleshooting
intervention and will not interrupt normal ventilation. Major faults require
intervention and correction.
1. Minor faults — Minor faults are not critical to ventilation, so do not affect ven-
tilation or patient safety checks and will not interrupt the POST sequence. Minor
faults result in a DEVICE ALERT alarm.
2. Major faults — Major faults are critical to ventilation and patient safety checks.
The ventilator does not permit normal ventilation while a major fault exists. Major
faults result in a HIGH PRIORITY alarm. During VENT INOP, the safety valve and
exhalation valve remain open to allow the patient to breathe room air.
2. High priority audible alarm — A sequence of five rising tones that repeats
twice, pauses, then repeats again.
b. Analysis message — This message describes the likely cause of the alarm
and any dependent (augmentation) alarms.
• The ventilator system adds dependent alarms to the analysis messages of each
active primary alarm with which they are associated. If a dependent alarm resets,
the system removes it from the analysis message of the primary alarm.
• The priority level of a primary alarm is equal to or greater than the priority level of
any of its active dependent alarms.
• If a primary alarm resets, any active dependent alarms become primary unless they
are also dependent alarms of another active primary alarm. This is due to different
reset criteria for primary and dependent alarms.
• The system applies the new alarm limit to alarm calculations from the moment a
change to an alarm limit is accepted.
• The priority level of a dependent alarm is based solely on its detection conditions,
not the priority of any associated alarms.
• When an alarm causes the ventilator to enter occlusion status cycling (OSC), the
values in the patient data banner are replaced with a banner containing the text
Severe Occlusion. The elapsed time without ventilatory support appears on the
GUI screen. If the alarm causing OSC is auto-reset, the ventilator resets all patient
data and associated alarm detection algorithms.
The ventilator system classifies alarms by urgency level and determines how the
ventilator responds. It also prioritizes them from the most serious to the least
serious alarm condition. A ventilator setting or patient condition may trigger
an alarm during the usual course of patient care. In other instances, the venti-
lator’s built-in background checks may trigger a DEVICE ALERT alarm, which
indicates the ventilator requires service. When the ventilator system declares a
DEVICE ALERT, it not only displays a message and writes to the alarm log, but
also places an associated diagnostic code into the System Diagnostic Log.
Note:
The ventilator system clears the alarm log after running EST or completion of a new
patient setup.

Alarms fall into two basic categories: non-technical and technical alarms. Addi-
tionally, alarms may be non-lockable, lockable, or latched alarms.
• Non-lockable alarms — Alarms that cancel an active alarm silence period.
• Lockable alarms — All patient data alarms and the CIRCUIT DISCONNECT alarm
are lockable alarms. Lockable alarms do not terminate an active alarm silence
function. When a new lockable alarm occurs, the alarm will not start to sound
audibly if the previous lockable alarm was silenced.
• Latched alarms — The visual alarm indicator located on the sides of the 360
omni-directional alarm remains illuminated after the alarm has auto-reset. To
manually reset a latched alarm, press the alarm reset key. If no alarms are active,
the highest priority latched alarm appears on the 360 omni-directional alarm on
the GUI.

Note:
Selecting NEW PATIENT during ventilator setup clears patient data, ventilator settings,
and alarm logs.
1. Alarms Log — The alarm log records up to 1000 alarms that have occurred,
reset status, priority level, alarm volume setting, ambient volume, and analysis
messages. In normal ventilation mode, an icon appears on the GUI indicating
there are unread items. The alarm log is stored in non-volatile memory (NVRAM)
and may be re-displayed after the ventilator’s power is cycled. The alarm log is
cleared by setting the ventilator up for a new patient. The alarm log is accessible
during normal ventilation and in Service Mode.
2. Settings Log — The settings log records changes to ventilator settings for retro-
spective analysis of ventilator-patient management. The settings log is accessible
in normal ventilation mode and Service Mode.
3. Patient Data Log — This log records every minute (up to 4320 patient data
entries) consisting of date and time of the entry, patient data name, and the
patient data value during ventilator operation. It clears when the ventilator is set
up for a new patient. The patient data log contains three tabs for categorizing the
data. Reference Troubleshooting in the Operator’s Manual for more details. The
settings log is accessible in normal ventilation mode.
5. EST/SST Status Log — The EST and SST status log records data related to status
of both self-tests, but does not contain any diagnostic information, which appears
in the EST/SST diagnostic log.
6. General Event Log — The general event log contains ventilator-related informa-
tion not found in any other logs. It includes date and time of compressor on and
off, changes in alarm volume, when the ventilator entered and exited Stand-By,
GUI key presses, and warning notifications. The General event log can display up
to 256 entries and is not cleared upon new patient setup.
7. Service Log — The service log is accessible during normal ventilation and Service
Mode and contains the nature and type of the service, reference numbers specific
to the service event (for example, sensor and actuator ID numbers), manual and
automatic serial number input, and the time and date when the service event
occurred. It is not cleared upon new patient setup.
Ventilator logs can only be saved by entering Service Mode and downloading
them via the Ethernet port.

Only a factory-trained service technician may disassemble the ventilator to its
major component parts. The supported replacement level is to the printed
circuit board assembly (PCBA) and major subassembly level. After isolating the
problem to a suspected PCBA, follow the procedures for disassembly, then
replace the original suspect PCBA with a known good PCBA. Verify the
symptom disappears and ensure the ventilator passes all performance tests. If
the symptom persists, swap the known good PCBA with the original suspect
PCBA and continue troubleshooting.
1. Always remove all batteries.
4. Prepare a clean, static-free work surface large enough to accommodate the ven-
tilator and its sub-assemblies. A container with cover to retain screws and small
parts is also helpful.
• Allen wrench,.050
• Allen wrench, 3 mm
• Diagonal cutters
• Grease, Krytox®
• Pliers, needle-nose
• Screwdriver, Phillips-head P0 to P2
• Static-dissipative field service kit (includes wrist strap, static dissipative mat, and
earth (ground) cord)
Follow all general repair guidelines when repairing any portion of the ventila-
tor. Reference General Repair Guidelines, p. 9-6, and the applicable specific
repair guidelines.
Use the following accessories when performing the extended self test after
completing all ventilator repairs.
1. Gold standard test circuit
• Use only recommended tools, test equipment, and service materials when servic-
ing the ventilator.
• Perform all applicable cleaning and inspection procedures while repairing the ven-
tilator.
• Visually inspect any removed ventilator parts, including those removed to gain
access to a suspected faulty part. Inspect the exposed area behind the removed
parts as well. Clean removed parts to facilitate further inspection as necessary.
• Investigate and determine the cause of any detected abnormality. Repair the unit or
contact Covidien Technical Services for help in diagnosing unresolved symptoms.
• Replace or repair all parts that are worn, missing, damaged, cracked, corroded,
burnt, warped, bent, disfigured, or broken.

parts or components.
Covidien factory-trained service personnel can manually enter the service date,
time, and nature of repair/preventive maintenance performed into the log
using a keyboard provided on the GUI interface.
To manually document a service or preventive maintenance activity
1. Enter Service mode.
4. Select Add Entry; using the buttons to the right of each line, complete the entry.
Cleaning guidelines pertain to parts that require cleaning while servicing the
ventilator. For procedures on periodic cleaning and sterilization of the ventila-
tor and accessories, refer to the Puritan Bennett™ 980 Ventilator Operator’s
Manual. For periodic cleaning and inspection procedures that are required
during a ventilator's performance verification, refer to Chapter 5 in this
manual. Replace all identified parts that cannot be cleaned.
• Clean ventilator exterior surfaces before disassembly with approved cleaning and
disinfecting agents. Use a clean, lint-free cotton cloth. Allow cleaned ventilator
parts and surfaces to air-dry.
• Vacuum the ventilator interior using static-resistive equipment. Do not clean the
ventilator interior or exterior surface with compressed air.
• To ensure proper reassembly, note or label wire and tube positions before discon-
necting parts.
• To avoid damaging a silicone tube when removing from a fitting, turn the tube
while pulling outward using steady pressure.
• Install all tubes, harnesses, or cables using tie wraps as specified. Ensure wiring
does not interfere with and cannot be damaged by hinged or moving ventilator
parts.
WARNING:
Always replace damaged warning, caution, and identification labels. Failure
to do so may result in personal injury or equipment/property damage.
• First remove any adhesive residue using a suitable scraping tool that won't scratch
the surface of the part or ventilator,then clean the scraped surface thoroughly
with Isopropyl alcohol. Ensure the application area is free of dust and grease; then
apply pressure, ensuring adhesive contact and bonding. Eliminate any trapped air
bubbles.
• Exercise care when using any cleaners and solvents, since they might cause per-
sonal injury or damage to ventilator surfaces. Use in a well-ventilated area.
Caution:
Replacing some ventilator components requires the use of leak detector fluid
to ensure a good gas seal. Use extreme caution when using a leak detector in
the vicinity of electronics. Thoroughly dry all components following the use
of a leak detector.
To perform a leak test
1. Connect compressed gas sources to ventilator.
Follow ESD controls and precautions whenever performing repairs on the ven-
tilator to prevent ESD damage to the static-sensitive microelectronic compo-
nents and assemblies in the ventilator.
Electrostatic discharge can permanently damage static-sensitive microelectron-
ic components or assemblies during handling, even without direct contact to
the component or assembly. ESD damage might show up at a later time. It can
manifest as a premature catastrophic failure of a component or assembly, or
as an intermittent failure, all of which can be difficult and costly to locate.
• Use a static-dissipative system. Before opening the ventilator or removing its
panels, always wear ESD protection. Properly connect the static-dissipative mat to
a reliable ground.
• Follow correct procedures when using a static-dissipative mat. Place tools, test
equipment, and the static-sensitive device on the static-dissipative mat before
starting repairs. Conduct all work on the static-dissipative mat.
• Keep non-conducting materials away from the work area. Static charges from
non-conducting material, (i.e. plastic containers, foam cups, synthetic clothing,
cellophane tape, etc.) cannot be removed by grounding. These items must be kept
away from the work area when handling static-sensitive devices.
• Follow correct procedures when using static-shielding bags. Store and transport
all static-sensitive devices in static-shielding bags at all times. Never place more
than one static-sensitive device in a static-shielding bag. Never place static-gener-
ating non-conducting material inside a static-shielding bag with a static-sensitive
device. Place any static-sensitive device in a static-shielding bag immediately after
removal. Close the bag to ensure the shield is effective.
Properly identify both the ventilator version and part prior to ordering parts.
Order the next higher assembly for unavailable or out of stock parts. Retain
each defective part and compare it with the replacement part for compatibility.
WARNING:
Connectors and tubes with barbed cuff fittings are intended for use only with
like fittings. They are not interchangeable with ISO-standard cone and socket
fittings. Combining these two fitting types may not create a leak-tight
connection. Use adapters to connect barbed cuff fittings with ISO-standard
cone and socket fittings.

analysis message A message displayed on the GUI screen during an alarm condition,
identifying the root cause of the alarm.
background checks Continuously running tests during ventilation that assess the ventila-
tor's electronics and pneumatics hardware.
base flow A constant flow of gas through the patient circuit during the latter part
of exhalation during flow triggering (VTRIG). The value of this base flow
is 1.5 L/min greater than the operator-selected value for flow sensitivi-
ty.
base message A message given by the ventilator during an alarm condition, identify-
ing the alarm.
batch changes Changes to multiple settings that go into effect at the same time.
battery back-up system The system for supplying battery back-up power to a device. The ven-
tilator's battery back-up system consists of a single internal battery to
provide up to one (1) hour of battery power to the ventilator. An
optional spare battery with the same characteristics as the internal
battery is available.
BD, BDU Breath delivery or breath delivery unit. The ventilator component that
includes inspiratory and expiratory pneumatics and electronics.
BOC British Oxygen Company, a standard for high pressure gas inlet fittings.
bpm Beats per minute. A standard unit of measure for pulse rate. It may be
too fast (tachycardia) or too slow (bradycardia). For breaths per minute,
see BF.
breath stacking The delivery of a second inspiration before the first exhalation is com-
plete.
compliance volume The volume of gas that remains in the patient circuit and does not enter
the patient's respiratory system.
compressor The compressor provides compressed air, which can be used in place
of wall or bottled air.
constant during rate change One of three breath timing variables (inspiratory time, I:E ratio, or expi-
ratory time) the operator can hold constant when the respiratory rate
setting changes. Applies only to the pressure control (PC) mandatory
breath type (including VC+ and BiLevel).
DSENS Disconnect sensitivity. A setting that specifies the allowable loss (per-
centage) of delivered tidal volume, which if equaled or exceeded,
causes the ventilator to declare a DISCONNECT alarm. The greater the
setting, the more returned volume must be lost before DISCONNECT is
detected.
ESENS Expiratory sensitivity, the percent of peak inspiratory flow (or flow rate
expressed in L/min in a PA breath) at which the ventilator cycles from
inspiration to exhalation for spontaneous breaths. Low settings will
result in longer spontaneous inspirations.
EXP PAUSE Expiratory pause, an operator-initiated maneuver that closes the inspi-
ration (proportional solenoid) and exhalation valves during the exhala-
tion phase of a mandatory breath. The maneuver can be used to
determine intrinsic (auto) PEEP (PEEPI).
f, fTOT Respiratory rate, as a setting (f) in A/C, SIMV, and BILEVEL the minimum
number of mandatory breaths the patient receives per minute. As a
monitored value (fTOT), the average total number of breaths delivered
to the patient.
FAILURE A category of condition detected during SST or EST that causes the ven-
tilator to enter the safety valve open state. A ventilator experiencing a
FAILURE requires removal from clinical use and immediate service.
Table G-1. Ventilation Glossary
humidification type A setting for the type of humidification system (HME, non-heated expi-
ratory tube, or heated expiratory tubing) in use on the ventilator.
I:E ratio The ratio of inspiratory time to expiratory time. Also, the operator-set
timing variable that applies to PC and VC+ mandatory breaths.
idle mode, also idle/charging A ventilation mode in effect during a patient circuit disconnect. When
mode the ventilator is in this mode, the exhalation valve opens, idle flow (10
L/min flow at 100% O2 or at 40% O2 in NeoMode, if available) begins
and breath triggering is disabled.
INSP PAUSE Inspiratory pause, an operator-initiated maneuver that closes the inspi-
ration (proportional solenoid) and exhalation valves at the end of the
inspiratory phase of a mandatory breath. The maneuver can be used to
determine static compliance (CSTAT) and resistance (RSTAT).
maintenance All actions necessary to keep equipment in, or restore it to, serviceable
condition. Includes cleaning, servicing, repair, modification, overhaul,
inspection, and performance verification.
mandatory A breath whose settings and timing are preset; can be triggered by the
ventilator, patient, or operator.
mandatory type The type of mandatory breath: volume control (VC), VC+, or pressure
control (PC).
manual inspiration An OIM breath. one mandatory breath for the ventialation patient.
mode Ventilatory mode, the algorithm that determines type and sequence of
breath delivery.
normal ventilation The state of the ventilator when breathing is in progress and no alarms
are active.
O2% Both an operator-set and monitored variable. The O2% setting deter-
mines the percentage of oxygen in the delivered gas. The O2% moni-
tored data is the percentage of oxygen in the gas delivered to the
patient, measured at the ventilator outlet upstream of the inspiratory
filter.
ongoing background checks Continuously running tests during ventilation that assess the ventila-
tor's electronics and pneumatics hardware.
OVERRIDDEN The final status of an SST or EST run in which the operator used the
override feature. (The ventilator must have ended the test with an
ALERT condition.)
Table G-1. Ventilation Glossary
patient data alarm An alarm condition associated with an abnormal condition of the
patient's respiratory status.
patient problems A definition used by the ventilator's safety net. patient problems are
declared when patient data is measured equal to or outside of alarm
thresholds and are usually self-correcting or can be corrected by a prac-
titioner. The alarm monitoring system detects and announces patient
problems. Patient problems do not compromise the ventilator's perfor-
mance.
PBW Predicted body weight, a ventilator setting that specifies the patient's
body weight assuming normal fat and fluid levels. Determines absolute
limits on tidal volume and peak flow, and allows appropriate matching
of ventilator settings to patient.
PEEPI Indicates a calculated estimate of the pressure above the PEEP level at
the end of exhalation. Determined during an
expiratory pause maneuver.
PI END End inspiratory pressure, the pressure at the end of the inspiration
phase of the current breath. If plateau is active, the displayed value
reflects the level of end-plateau pressure.
PPEAK Maximum circuit pressure, the maximum pressure during the inspira-
tory phase of a breath.
remedy message A message displayed on the GUI during an alarm condition suggesting
ways to resolve the alarm.
restricted phase of The specific time period during the exhalation phase where an inspira-
exhalation tion trigger is not allowed. The conditions associated with the restrict-
ed phase of exhalation are as follows:
Net flow ≥ 50% of peak net flow (peak net flow is measured after 100
ms of exhalation time have elapsed)
OR
Expiratory flow is greater than 0.5 L/min and exhalation elapsed time is
less than 200 ms
OR
Less than five (5) seconds of exhalation have elapsed
rise time% A setting that determines the rise time to achieve the set inspiratory
pressure in pressure-controlled (PC), VC+, BiLevel, or pressure-support-
ed (PS) breaths. The larger the value, the more aggressive the rise of
pressure.
safety net The ventilator's strategy for responding to patient problems and
system faults.
safety ventilation A mode of ventilation active if the patient circuit is connected before
ventilator startup is complete, or when power is restored after a loss of
five (5) minutes or more.
service mode A ventilator mode providing a set of services tailored to the needs of
testing and maintenance personnel. When in the service mode, the
ventilator does not provide ventilation.
SIS Sleeved index system. A standard for high pressure gas inlet fittings.
Table G-1. Ventilation Glossary
SL/min Standard liters per minute (unit of flow measured at 0°C (32°F) and 1
atm (14.7 psia) pressure).
SmartAlarm™ system Alarm annunciation system which helps quickly determine the urgency
and root cause of alarm conditions.
soft bound A ventilator setting that has reached its recommended high or low
limit. Setting the ventilator beyond this limit requires the operator to
acknowledge the prompt to continue.
spontaneous type A setting that determines whether spontaneous breaths are pressure-
supported (PS), tube-compensated (TC), volume-supported (VS), pro-
portionally assisted (PA), or not (NONE).
SST Short self test. A test that checks circuit integrity, calculates circuit com-
pliance and filter resistance, and checks ventilator function. Operator
should run SST at specified intervals and with any replacement or alter-
ation of the patient circuit.
STPD Standard temperature and pressure, dry. Defined as dry gas at a stan-
dard atmosphere (760 mmHg, 101.333 kPa, approximately 1.0 bar) and
0°C.
SVO Safety valve open. An emergency state in which the ventilator opens
the safety valve so the patient can breathe room air unassisted by the
ventilator. An SVO state does not necessarily indicate a ventilator inop-
erative condition. The ventilator enters an SVO state if a hardware or
software failure occurs that could compromise safe ventilation, with
the loss of the air and oxygen supplies, or if the system detects an
occlusion.
system fault A definition used by the ventilator's safety net. System faults include
hardware faults (those that originate inside the ventilator and affect its
performance), soft faults (faults momentarily introduced into the ven-
tilator that interfere with normal operation), inadequate supply (AC
power or external gas pressure), and patient circuit integrity (blocked
or disconnected circuit).
Technical alarm An alarm occurring due to a violation of any of the ventilator's self mon-
itoring conditions, or detected by background checks.
TPL Plateau time, the amount of time the inspiration phase of a mandatory
breath is extended after inspiratory flow has ceased and exhalation is
blocked. Increases the residence time of gas in the patient's lungs.
VE SET Set mandatory minute volume. The system calculates this value from
ventilator control parameters (f x VT) and displays with the breath
timing bar on the lower GUI screen whenever users touch it.
VE TOT Minute volume, the expiratory tidal volume normalized to unit time (L/
min). The displayed value is compliance- and BTPS-compensated.
ventilator inoperative An emergency state the ventilator enters if it detects a hardware failure
or a critical software error which could compromise safe ventilation.
During a ventilator inoperative condition, the safety valve opens to
allow the patient to breathe room air unassisted by the ventilator.
Qualified service personnel must power up the ventilator and run EST
before normal ventilation can resume.
VMAX Peak flow. A setting of the peak (maximum) flow of gas delivered
during a VC mandatory breath. (Combined with tidal volume, flow pat-
tern, and plateau, constant peak flow defines the inspiratory time.) To
correct for compliance volume, the ventilator automatically increases
the peak flow.
VSENS Flow sensitivity. The rate of flow inspired by the patient that triggers
the ventilator to deliver a mandatory or spontaneous breath (when
flow triggering is selected).
Table G-1. Ventilation Glossary
VT Tidal volume. The volume inspired and expired with each breath. The
VT delivered by some Puritan Bennett ventilators is an operator-set
variable that determines the volume delivered to the patient during a
mandatory, volume-based breath. VT is compliance-compensated and
corrected to body temperature and pressure, saturated (BTPS).
