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.
