High Leak Rate The average estimated leak from the previous breath has
exceeded the set High Leak alarm limit (alarm applies to
NPPV mode only). Medium urgency, escalates to high
urgency after 60 seconds. The alarm cancels when the
estimated leak from the previous breath equals or falls
below the alarm setting, if the ventilation type changes from
NPPV to another ventilation mode or if the alarm is reset by
the clinician.
