Chapter 9. Alarms

Introduction

Visual Alarms

The Respironics V200 Ventilator provides an easy-to-use hierarchical alarm system that includes both visual and audible alarms. When the ventilator detects an operating condition that requires attention, it generates an alarm. The alarm system communicates three levels of urgency and priority:

•High Urgency: Alerts the operator that immediate response is required. (red flashing indicator)

•Medium Urgency: Alerts the operator that prompt response is required. (yellow flashing indicator)

•Low Urgency: Alerts the operator to a change in the ventilator status. (yellow continuous indicator)

In most cases, the alarm will have the following audible and visual components:

•an indicator is illuminated

•a sequence of tones sounds

•a screen alert window appears with a message in it

The ventilator includes alarm and status indicators located on the front panel to provide a visual summary of active alarm conditions. Each of these indicators is illuminated by either a red, green, or yellow light, which will flash or remain illuminated, depending on the alarm condition.

Pressing the ALARM RESET key on the front panel clears the visual indicators for active or auto-reset alarms. If the alarm condition reoccurs, the visual indicator illuminates again.

Alarm messages also appear in an Alert insert that appears in any screen whenever there is a low, medium, or high urgency alarm active (Figure 9-2).
