Airway Resistance Compensation (ARC)
Note: Not available in Neonatal option
Type of
compensation:
Electronic tube compensation
Compensation for: Endotracheal and tracheostomy tubes
Tube diameter: 5 to 10 mm
Level of
compensation:
25 to 100%
Mode Families
Allows user adjustment to specify certain parameters that
align with the hospital’s current ventilator usage.
Adjustable
parameters:
Flow and Inspiratory timing
Family 1: Flow control is On/Insp. Timing is I:E
Family 2: Flow control is Off/Insp. Timing is I:E
Family 3: Flow control is On/Insp. Timing is T
