Introduction

The oxygen supply is crucial because O2 is added to the air that is used to provide mechanical ventilation. Most patients need a higher concentration of oxygen than is present in normal atmospheric air.

WARNING! The sealed unit of the O2 cell contains a caustic liquid which may cause severe burns to the skin and eyes. In case of contact, immediately wash the affected area continuously with water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention, especially if the eyes are affected.

Before you start, unpack the O2 cell at least 15 minutes before replacement. Turn the ventilator system off using the on/off switch on the patient unit. Make sure to disconnect the ventilator system from the power and gas supply.

  • Turn the inspiratory channel lock one quarter of a turn to release.
  • Lift off the inspiratory channel cover.
