Suctioning the Patient

Suctioning is required to remove mucus from the patient lungs during mechanical ventilation.  This is associated with risk of false triggers and/or erroneous false technical faults, such as a Disconnect alarm being annunciated.
Breath delivery will continue during suctioning. In order to begin suction, set the  O2%  to  100%  for  a  few minutes before initiating suctioning, if in the medical opinion of the physician this  is necessary.  Any Ventilation modes  and  settings can be used for closed suctioning.

Setting and Delivering Oxygen

An alarm will NOT sound on the Ventilator if there is an interruption to  the O2  supply.  If  the supply is interrupted, it could result in the FiO2 being lower than the amount set on the unit  (down  to  21%).   Appropriate patient monitoring should be used, as medically indicated,  such as an alarming pulse oximeter and the required external alarming Oxygen monitor.

RESPOND 19 Ventilator Setup

An external monitor must be used to verify Oxygen accuracy and must be used to finely adjust the input flow rate for the targeted O2%. This monitor will also indicate a loss of gas supply via the low oxygen alarm target that is user set. Set the monitor’s Oxygen High and Low alarms to 5‐10% above and below the intended oxygen percent target to indicate that the gas supply is not properly delivering flow or has lost supply.CORVENT-

*SST Troubleshooting Information ( will align next to failed parameter):**

  • C (Compliance) may mean an incorrect patient circuit is used
  • Leak may mean a disconnect is present
  • Ri (Inspiratory Resistance) may mean Insp. Filter is missing or occluded
  • Re (Expiratory Resistance) may mean Exp. Filter is missing or occluded
  • Rhme (HME Resistance) may mean HME is missing or occluded

Ensure that the Patient is NOT connected to the Ventilator when changing Ventilation Types and is NOT connected when running SST. These functions can ONLY be performed in STANDBY MODE.

    Power cycle unit to reset the system if the problem persists.

  • Disconnect or Flow Sensor Not Connected Alarm that will not clear
    Check all Patient Circuit connections and sampling ports. Adjust the Disconnect alarm limit if needed. Replace Flow Sensor Cable. Replace Flow Sensor.

  • Nothing happens when the device is plugged in and power is turned on
    Check power cable connected to the system at the wall outlet (red plug) and into the universal power supply.
    Check to  ensure that the power cable is locked into  rear of the Ventilator.
