Note: (Set) values are those selected by the clinician.
The treatment screens contain the following information:
Treatment mode: Mode of treatment set by your clinician. Options are: CPAP,
S and VSet.
Ramping indicator: (CPAP mode, S mode) Appears if the VPAP Malibu is in
ramp mode. This disappears once the ramp time has elapsed.
Settling indicator: (VSet mode) Appears if the VPAP Malibu is in settling mode.
This disappears once the settling time has elapsed.
Set pressure(s): In CPAP mode, this displays the set treatment pressure
(centimeters of water). In S mode, it displays exhalation and inhalation pressures
(centimeters of water). In VSet mode, it displays the AutoSet pressure (mean
mid-point pressure between inhalation and exhalation).
Trigger indicator: (S mode) How the VPAP Malibu changes the pressure when
you are inhaling. "S" (Spontaneous) indicates a patient triggered change.
Apnea indicator: (CPAP mode, VSet mode) Visual indicator that displays an "A"
to indicate an apnea is occurring.
Pressure bar graph: Graphical display of the changing pressure.
Leak: Current mask leak (liters per minute).
Respiratory rate: Number of breaths per minute.
