Philips MP20/30 Manuale Utente

Using a VueLink module connected to a ventilator, you can measure and store graphic representations 
of realtime respiratory loops. Respiratory loops can help you recognize changes in your patient’s lung 
function , and they can also indicate a fault in the airway tubing (for example, if the respiratory loop 
does not close).

You can measure: 

• Pressure-volume loops 

• Pressure-flow  loops

• Volume-flow  loops.

Note that you cannot store loops from different patients and different source devices in the same list as 
they are patient and device specific.This prevents you from inadvertently comparing information from 
different patients. 

In the loops display, the current loop is drawn in white, and up to six stored loops are color-coded to 
match their timestamps. The currently-used source device is shown in the window title.

To view respiratory loops permanently on your Screen, 

♦

select the current Screen name to open the 

 menu, then select a Screen 

configured to display the loops screen element.

Select the loops screen element to access the loops pop-up keys.
