very good presentation, I like the close ups, I was hoping though during SST that you zoomed down so we can see what is being removed or added, but otherwise very informative.
Tamra Parrish it has been my experience that ventilated patients receiving aerogen therapy also require frequent suctioning and we require etco2 monitoring for all vent patients. Usually this makes an HME impracticle.
Dead space from an inline aerogen is negligent for nearly all adult patients. In the case of neonates, most modern ventilator utilize flow sensors at the end of the inspiratory circuit, which will cause the vent to automatically compensate for deadspace based on insp/exp measurments. If your neonatal vent doesnt have a flow sensor, then you may have to adjust your settings.
Ah... Good times, first semester, we did a tour of the lab. My smart self saw a flippy switch and turned on the 980. The lab professor was pissed. Apparently they were 70k+ a piece and if the cap was on it the machine would get damaged.
Aerogens go on the dry side per the aerogen quick reference guide FYI
yep, I talked to Jim fink in an elevator about the same thing once

There are some HME'S that are design for aerogen, which it has a tab that goes up and down so you can give the neb tx's
To fix that leak failure issue tear the small cap covering your water feed line from the chamber cover and press it on firmly.
very good presentation,
At the facilities I have worked at we use the aerogen with an HME, but we put it in front of the HME closest to the patient.

What about the amount of dead space for the aerogen? Or do you not need to worry about that with the aerogen?

What's the damages of this ventilator please
Thank you very much. Really helpful.
Thank you so much
I don't know thatvI agree with where he put the aerogen. The company recommends the dry side.
The 840 is better
