The treatment screens contain the following information:
Treatment mode: Mode of treatment set by your clinician. Options include: CPAP, Spontaneous, Spontaneous/Timed (VPAP III ST) and Timed
(VPAP III ST).
Ramping indicator: Appears if the VPAP is in ramp mode. This disappears once the ramp time has elapsed.
Set pressure(s): In CPAP mode, this displays the set treatment pressure
(units: centimetres of water). In other modes, it is exhalation and inhalation
pressures (units: centimetres of water).
Trigger indicator: How the VPAP changes the pressure when you are inhaling. "S" (Spontaneous) indicates a patient triggered change and "T" (Timed) indicates a device triggered change.
Pressure bar graph: Graphical display of the changing pressure.
Leak: Current mask leak (units: litres per minute).
Respiratory rate: Number of breaths per minute.
