THE IMPORTANCE OF PATIENTMONITORING
WARNING
Anaesthetic systems have the capabilityto deliver mixtures of gases and vapoursto the patient which could cause injury ordeath unless controlled by a qualifiedanaesthetist.
There can be considerable variation in theeffect of anaesthetic drugs on individualpatients so that the setting andobservation of control levels on theanaesthesia systems does not in itselfensure total patient safety.Anaesthesia system monitors and patientmonitors are very desirable aids for theanaesthetist but are not true clinicalmonitors as the condition of the patient isalso dependent on his respiration and thefunctioning of his cardio-vascular system.
IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT THESEELEMENTS ARE MONITOREDFREQUENTLY AND REGULARLY ANDTHAT ANY OBSERVATIONS ARE GIVENPRECEDENCE OVER MACHINECONTROL PARAMETERS IN JUDGINGTHE STATE OF A CLINICAL PROCEDURE.

USER RESPONSIBILITY
1
1. WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
The following WARNINGS and CAUTIONSmust be read and understood before usingthis ventilator.
WARNINGSGeneral Information
1. Personnel must make themselvesfamiliar with the contents of thismanual and the machines functionbefore using the ventilator.
Before Using the Ventilator
2. Before the ventilator is used clinicallyfor the first time, verify that the hospitalengineering department has carried outan earth continuity test.
3. Excessive electronic noise caused byother poorly regulated devices, such asan electrocautery unit, may adverselyinterfere with the proper functioning ofthe ventilator.
To avoid this problem, do not connectthe ventilators power cord into thesame electrical wall outlet or adaptorstrip into which an electrocautery unitis connected.
4. If used with a mains extension cord, theunit may be subject to electro-magneticinterference.
5. The driving gas supply must be cleanand dry to prevent ventilatormalfunction.
6. This ventilator is designed to be drivenby oxygen or medical air only. It iscalibrated during manufacture for usewith either gas. Before the ventilator is used clinicallyfor the first time, the commissioningengineer must confirm that the internalAir/Oxygen switch is set correctly forthe gas that is to be used. The use of any other gas will causeinaccurate operation and may damagethe ventilator, resulting in potentialinjury to the patient.
7. The driving gas is discharged throughthe opening in the back of the ventilatorcontrol unit. The discharged gas may contaminatethe environment, and should thereforebe extracted using a gas scavengingsystem.
8. The bellows can only supportapproximately 1 kPa (10 cmH2O)differential positive pressure, abovewhich it may be dislodged from themounting ring, resulting in dangerousmalfunction of the ventilator.
Do not connect a positive endexpiratory pressure (PEEP) valve orother restrictive device to the exhaustport on the bellows base. This would increase the pressure insidethe bellows and the bellows coulddetach from the base, causing seriousmalfunction.
9. Breathing SystemThe breathing system which conveysgases from the anaesthetic machine tothe patient, and disposes of expiredgases, must conform to therequirements of ISO 8835-2.Because breathing systems requirefrequent cleaning and disinfection theyare not a permanent part of theanaesthetic ventilator and thereforecannot be directly under the control ofthe anaesthetic ventilator manufacturer.However, we strongly recommend thatonly breathing systems which havebeen approved and authorised by themanufacturer for use with AV-S shouldbe employed.
Do not use conductive breathingsystem hoses.
When mechanical ventilation isemployed the patient breathing systemmust be connected directly to apressure relief valve to prevent thepossibility of barotrauma.
10. Do not connect a spirometer to theexhaust port on the bellows base. The device will not measure exhaledvolumes in that position.
2
11. The operation of each alarm functionshould be verified daily.
Periodically check the alarms atclinically suitable intervals. If theaudible alarm or the visual indicator ofany alarm function fails to activateduring any alarm condition or fails toreset after the alarm has been cleared,refer the unit to an authorised servicetechnician.
12. Before using the ventilator check thatall connections are correct, and verifythat there are no leaks.
Patient circuit disconnects are a hazardto the patient. Extreme care should betaken to prevent such occurrences.
It is recommended that Safelockfittings are used throughout thebreathing circuit.
13. Check that the cable between thecontrol unit and remote display screenunit is connected before use.Always use a cable type recommendedby the manufacturer.
Using the Ventilator
14. The AV-S ventilator is not intended foruse in intensive care applications.
15. This apparatus must not be used with,or in close proximity to, flammableanaesthetic agents.There is a possible fire or explosionhazard.
16. Anaesthesia apparatus must beconnected to an anaesthetic gasscavenging system (AGSS) to disposeof waste gas and prevent possiblehealth hazards to operating room staff.This requirement must be observedduring test procedures as well asduring use with a patient.The scavenging transfer and receiversystem must conform to ISO 8835-3. Any problem arising from animproperly functioning scavengingsystem is solely the usersresponsibility.Do not use a scavenging system thatrestricts drive gas flow when negativepressure is exerted on it.
17. When the ventilator is connected to apatient, it is recommended that aqualified practitioner is in attendanceat all times to react to an alarm or otherindication of a problem.
18. In compliance with good anaesthesiapractice, an alternative means ofventilation must be available wheneverthe ventilator is in use.
19. It is recommended that the patientoxygen concentration should bemonitored continuously.
20. If the drive gas supply pressure dropsbelow a nominal 241 kPa (35 psi), theLOW DRIVE GAS SUPPLY alarm willactivate both audibly and visually.Patient minute volume may be reduceddue to lowered flow rates
21. An audible alarm indicates ananomalous condition and should nevergo unheeded.
22. The characteristics of the breathingcircuit connected between theventilator and the patient can modify orchange patient ventilation.To assist the maintenance of thedelivered patient tidal volume, theventilator control system softwareincludes:A) a compliance compensationalgorithm,B) a fresh gas compensationalgorithm.
However, patient ventilation must bemonitored independently from theventilator.It is the responsibility of the user tomonitor patient ventilation.
23. Care must be taken to ensure that theflow sensors are connected correctlyto the inspiratory and expiratory portsof the absorber.
24. The Vent Inop (ventilator inoperative)alarm indicates that one of thefollowing conditions has occurred:a) The drive gas solenoid has failed.b) The flow control valve has failed.c) Internal electronic fault.d) Internal electrical fault.e) Software error.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
3
Note that if a ventilator error isdetected, Ventilator Inoperative will bedisplayed on the front control paneldisplay.
25. The High and Low Airway PressureAlarms are important for patient care.It is important that the sensor isproperly located in the expiratory limbof the circuit - refer to section 5.1.10.
26. The patient must be continuouslyattended and monitored whenAdvanced Breathing Modes are in use.
User Maintenance
Control Unit27. Opening the control unit by
unauthorised personnel automaticallyvoids all warranties and specifications.
Prevention of tampering with thecontrol unit is exclusively the usersresponsibility. If the control unit seal isbroken, the manufacturer assumes noliability for any malfunction or failure ofthe ventilator.
28. For continued protection against firehazards, replace the two fuses onlywith the identical type and rating offuse.See section 4 for fuse rating.
29. If the internal battery is fullydischarged, the ventilator will notfunction in the event of mains powerfailure. The battery must be rechargedbefore the ventilator is used clinically,otherwise backup cannot beguaranteed.See Appendix for battery maintenance.See also CAUTION No. 7.
Used or defective batteries must bedisposed of according to hospital,local, state, and federal regulations.
30. No oil, grease or other flammablelubricant or sealant must be used onany part of the ventilator in closeproximity to medical gas distributioncomponents.There is a risk of fire or explosion.
31. Exterior panels must not be removedby unauthorised personnel and theapparatus must not be operated withsuch panels missing.There is a possible electric shockhazard.

3.2 Ventilation Cycle
This section provides a simplified description of the ventilation cycle.
1. Inspiratory Phase
The inspiratory proportionalvalve (1) in the control unitopens, and bellows drivegas is delivered to thebellows housing (2).The expiratory proportionalvalve (3) opens and gasflows through the bleedvalve. The back pressureensures that the exhaustvalve (4) is kept closedDrive gas pressure buildsup above the bellows, whichstarts to move down. The diaphragm (5) in thebellows assembly base isheld closed, and patient gasis forced out of the bellowsbase (6) into the breathingsystem.
2. Beginning of Expiratory Phase
The Inspiratory (1) andExpiratory (3) proportionalvalves close and the exhaustvalve (4) opens. Patient gasreturns to the bellows. Asthe bellows rises, redundantdrive gas is pushed outthrough the exhaust valve.

DESCRIPTION
3. End of Expiratory Phase
With the bellows at the topof its housing fresh gascontinues to flow. Toprevent a high pressurebuild up the exhalationdiaphragm (5) lifts andallows gas to exit throughthe exhaust valve (4).
4. PEEPPositive EndExpiratoryPressure(user selectable)
During PEEP the ExhalationProportional valve (3)applies PEEP pressure plus20 cmH2O to the exhaustvalve, which remains closedat this stage.As fresh gas flows in thepatient circuit, any pressureincrease above PEEPpressure in the bellows willcause gas to bleed past theexhaust valve (4). A continuous flow from theInspiratory proportionalvalve (1) ensures that anyfall in pressure iscompensated by driving thebellows as required.

3.3 Pneumatic System3.3.1 System OperationRefer to the pneumatic system diagram on theprevious page.
A) Gas inlet manifold block
The AV-S Ventilator is designed to operate on a310 - 689 kPa (45 -100 psi) drive gas supply(oxygen or air - to customers requirement).
1. DISS ConnectorThe gas source is connected to theDRIVE GAS SUPPLY fitting on the rear ofthe ventilator control unit. The gas supply should be capable of aflow rate of 80 L/min while maintaining aminimum pressure in excess of 310 kPa(45 psi).
2. FilterThe drive gas is filtered with a 40-micronInput Gas Filter which protects thepneumatic components from incomingparticulate matter.
3. The Low Supply Pressure DetectorThe pressure switch is set at apredetermined level to detect a loss orreduction of the input gas sourcepressure. When the pressure falls below 235 kPa(35 psi 1 psi), the LOW SUPPLYPRESSURE indicator will be displayedand the high priority audible alarm willactivate.
4. Input Pressure RegulatorRegulates the input drive gas to 260 kPa 21 kPa (38 psi 3 psi).
5. Cut-off ValveThe valve isolates the the gas supply :a) when the ventilator is switched offb) when a fault condition occurs.
6. Airway Pressure SensorConnected to expiratory limb of breathingcircuit.

3.5.4 Output CompensationFunctions
WARNINGThe AV-S automatically compensates for freshgas (spirometry On), fresh gas mixture(spirometry and oxygen monitor On), andaltitude. However, the actual tidal volume delivered to thepatient may be different to the ventilationparameters set by the user, due to:A) an extreme compliance condition,B) a substantial system leak, C) patient circuit pressure effects, orD) extreme fresh gas flows
In addition, high fresh gas flows will lead to anincreased Vt being delivered to the patient. The patient must be monitored independentlyfrom the ventilator.It is the responsibility of the user to monitor thepatient for adequate ventilation.
Fresh Gas CompensationAdjusts delivered volume up to 60%Alarms if measured volume is 50% differentthan set volumeUser adjustable
NOTEFresh gas compensation is disabled if :a) The spirometry system is turned OFF through themenu system, or b) The spirometry system is not functioning correctly.
Fresh Gas Mixture Compensation - models with SpirometryThe spirometry system compensates for fresh gasmixture - the user must access the menu system andselect the gas mixture that will be used for eachclinical procedure.
NOTEFresh gas mixture compensation is disabled if :a) The spirometry system is turned OFF through themenu system, or b) The spirometry system is not functioning correctly.
If the O2 monitor is switched OFF, a 40% / 60%mixture of O2/N2O is assumed.
Altitude CompensationMonitors ambient pressureAdjusts delivered volume accordinglyNOTE Altitude compensation is automaticallyapplied during calibration of the oxygen monitor - seesection 5.3.2.

3.11 Alarms
DESCRIPTION - O2 Monitor
3.12 Oxygen Monitor
The oxygen monitor continuously measures and indicatesthe concentration of oxygen in the breathing system, andtriggers an alarm when the concentration varies from theset levels.3.12.1 System DescriptionThe Oxygen Monitor uses a fast-responding, oxygen-specific, self powered sensor that achieves 90% of finalvalue in less than 10 seconds.
An external probe (1) is supplied with a 2 m (6 ft)extendable cable.
The system has user-adjustable high-level and low-levelalarms with visual and audible indication of alarmconditions.
Bacterial Filter Use a breathing system bacterial filter in theexpiratory limb of the breathing circuit to protect theoxygen sensor (see section 5).CAUTIONReplacement/Disposal - always follow the instructionssupplied with the filter, and always replace at therecommended interval.
3.12.2 The MOX-3 Oxygen SensorThe MOX-3 oxygen sensor offers quick response, linearoutput over the entire 0-100% oxygen range, and longservice life.
The MOX-3 is a self-powered galvanic cell that generatesa current proportional to oxygen concentration.
The cell has a highly stable output over its operating life.Significant output loss is only shown at the very end of itslife. Typical sensor drift rates are less than 1% per month whenthe sensor is exposed to gas in typical applications.
Sensor life:approximately 1500000 O2 percent hours at 20oC(minimum one year in most normal applications).
Sensor lifetime is governed by the mass of lead availableto react with the oxygen and its rate of consumption. Highoxygen partial pressure and high temperature will increasethe sensor output current, thus shortening the operationlife.
At the point where all lead has been consumed, the outputwill fall very quickly to zero over a period of two to threeweeks.

Humidity EffectsSensor output is relatively unaffected by prolonged operation in either high or very low relativehumidity.If the sensor shows signs of being affected by condensation, dry the sensor with soft tissue.CAUTION DO NOT use heat to dry the sensor.
Temperature EffectsThe sensor has a built-in temperature compensation circuit, and is relatively unaffected bytemperature changes within the operating temperature range given above.
Pressure Effects The sensor measures O2 partial pressure, and its output will rise and fall due to pressure change(e.g. changes in barometric pressure, or breathing system pressure).An increase in pressure of 10% at the sensor inlet will produce a 10% increase in sensor output.
NOTEAltitude compensation is automatically applied during calibration.
