SIMV
There are several modes that a ventilator can be set to.
For the purposes of this training module the only mode that will
be discussed is Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory
Ventilation
SIMV mode is a common setting for neonatal and pediatric
patients.
SIMV
Rate
PC - Pressure Control
PS Pressure Support
The Inspiratory time button sets the length of time for the
inspiratory period. The LTV 1200 can be set between 0.3-9.9
seconds.
The Sensitivity button determines the threshold at which
the patient can trigger a breath. The sensitivity can be set
on the LTV 1200 between 1-9 liters per minute.
Display Window
The red lit display window will provide the following monitored
data information;
The PIP
The mean airway pressure (MAP)
The PEEP
The actual respiratory rate (f)
The minute ventilation (VE)
The inspiratory/expratory ratio (I:E)
(More monitored data is available depending on ventilator mode)
Patient alarms also display in this area.
This window automatically scrolls through the data, but pressing
the select button can allow the user to choose what information
they wish to see.
The high pressure limit can be set 5-100cm H2O on the LTV
1200 Ventilator
If this alarm is sounding then check for the following;
Does the patient have increased secretions or a mucus plug?
Is the patient crying or coughing?
Is any wheezing audible?
Is the ventilator circuit (tubing) bent or kinked?
Is there excess water condensation present in the tubing?
The low pressure limit can be set 1-60cm H2O on the LTV 1200
Ventilator
If this alarm is sounding then check for the following;
Is the tubing disconnected from the patient?
Is the tubing disconnected from the ventilator?
Is the tracheostomy tube too small (the patient has outgrown
it)?
If the tracheostomy tube has a cuff, is the cuff underinflated?
Silence Reset
Indicator Lights
The Patient Effort light will light up
when the patient is triggering their
own spontaneous breaths
The External Power light is lit
when the LTV 1200 ventilator is
connected to an AC power source.
The charge status will indicate the
charge status of the internal
battery for the LTV 1200 ventilator.
A green light indicates the battery
is fully charged
The battery level light will only be
lit when the LTV 1200 ventilator is
operating on battery power alone.
The LTV ventilator can operate for
approximately one hour without an
external power source.
