Auto-Trak Sensitivity™
Introduction
Auto-Trak Sensitivity is a feature designed to enhance patient comfort and
ventilation effectiveness and reduce patient work of breathing. Auto-Trak
automatically triggers and cycles breathing without the need for user-
adjustment of I-Trigger (sensitivity) and E-Trigger (cycling) thresholds.
Auto-Trak is available in Volume Control Ventilation (VCV), Pressure Control
Ventilation (PCV), and Noninvasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NPPV).
Compatible Patient
Interfaces
Respironics recommends the following patient interfaces for compatibility with
the V200 Ventilator in NPPV. Refer to the usage instructions provided with
each mask for detailed instructions.
• Respironics Image3™ Full Face Mask
• Respironics Spectrum™ Disposable Full Face Mask
• Respironics Total™ Face Mask
• Respironics Disposable Contour™ Deluxe Nasal Mask
• Respironics Disposable Small Child Nasal Mask
• Respironics Disposable Nasal Mask
The V200 Ventilator’s built-in exhalation valve satisfies any Respironics mask
requirement for an exhalation port in the patient circuit. Do not use an
additional exhalation device (for example, Whisper Swivel®, Plateau™
Exhalation Valve, or equivalent).
If the mask you are using has an air entrainment valve, be sure to titrate the
EPAP level such that the entrainment valve remains closed to room air. This
will ensure that the oxygen mix and breath triggering remain unaffected.
WARNING: Titrate the EPAP level such that the masks air entrainment valve (if present)
remains closed to room air. Always evaluate and monitor patient condition
when adjusting EPAP or other settings.
