CPAP
In the CPAP mode, the patient is allowed to breath
spontaneously over an elevated baseline pressure.
Tidal Volume or Inspiratory Time and Flow should
be adjusted to appropriate levels for adequate
minute ventilation should the patient become apneic
and the ventilator reverts to Apnea Back-Up

START-UP
INSTRUCTIONS
•
The Avian Transport Ventilator is a restricted medical device. It is
intended to be operated by qualified medical personnel under the
direction of a physician.
•
When the ventilator is connected to a patient, it is recommended
that a trained clinician be in attendance at all times to take prompt
action should an alarm or other indication of a problem occur.

4.4.1
Ventilator
Setup
Assemble the ventilator system as described in Section 4.2, page 4-1. If
using a Bird blender, attach the air and oxygen hose assemblies to the
appropriate
gas sources. If required, turn supply sou_rce valves open
and check supply pressure. If using a humidificatio_L device to
humidify the inspired gas, follow the manufacturer's
operating
instructions. If using an external power supply, connect the electrical
AC power adapter to a properly grounded electrical outlet. Turn unit
ON by switching the Mode control from the OFF po:sition to the
applicable ventilation mode.
4.4.2
Description
4.4.2.1
of Ventilator
Modes
Control Mode
All parameters of the delivered breath are controlled by the
ventilator. The breath is initiated according to the Breath Rate
control. Gas is then delivered to satisfy the :requirements of the
Flow and Inspiratory Time or Tidal Volume settings. The
sensitivity control is non-operational
in the Control mode.
4.4.2.2
Assist/Control
This mode allows the delivery of either a Controlled or an
Assist/Controlled
breath type. In effect, the patient is allowed
to augment breath rate, but not flow or tidal volume/
inspiratory time. When this mode is selected, a visual
indicator will light notifying the user that the patient trigger
function is active. In the Assist/Control
mode, the patient is
able to initiate an Assist/Controlled
breath if both of the
following conditions exist:
• The ventilator is not currently in inspiration
minimum exhalation phase, and;
4-6
or the
Section 4.4: Start-Up
Instructions
(continued)
• The patient inspiratory effort exceeds the Sensitivity trigger
setting. After the initiation of a breath, gas is delivered to
the patient in accordance with the Control settings. The
patient is not permitted to augment the flow in this mode.
4.4.2.3
SIMV
In the SIMV (Synchronized Intermittent Mandatory
Ventilation) mode, all control parameters are used, with PEEP
and Sigh as optional controls. Depending on the control
settings, ventilation can be totally patient controlled, or totally
machine controlled with varying degrees of ventilator support
between spontaneous breaths.
There are two (2) types of breath periods in SIMV, both
defined by the Breath Rate control. They are Spontaneous
Breathing present, and Spontaneous Breathing not present.
• Spontaneous
Breathing
is present:
An "assist window" is opened at the beginning of a breath
period. If a patient effort is detected (defined by the Sensitivity
control), an Assist/Controlled
breath is delivered in
accordance with the ventilator settings. The patient is then
allowed to breath spontaneously
for the remainder of the
breath period. At the beginning of the next breath period, the
assist window is reopened. If patient effort is detected, an
Assist/Controlled
breath is delivered and the cycle repeats.
• Spontaneous
Breathing
is not present:
Following a complete breath period wherein spontaneous
breathing is not present, at the beginning of the next breath
period the ventilator will deliver a mandatory Controlled
breath as determined by the ventilator settings. The assist
window will then be immediately opened. If a patient effort is
detected, an Assist/Controlled
breath will be delivered. The
patient is allowed to breath spontaneous
for the remainder of
the breath period. The next breath period will be as described
in the "Spontaneous Breathing is present" paragraph.
4.4.2.4
CPAP Mode
In CPAP mode, the patient is allowed to breath spontaneously
over an elevated baseline pressure. All breaths are completely
patient controlled. This mode is accessed by turning the
Breath Rate control to "0" and adjusting the external PEEP
valve to a level appropriate for the clinical situation.

In CAL Mode, the ventilator will monitor the airway pressure
transducer output for a maximum of 3 seconds. If the measured reading is within +4 cmH20 of 0, the unit will store this
offset and will add or subtract it from the pressure reading
during normal operation to obtain corrected pressure. The unit
will display PASS to indicate that the calibration has been
successfully completed, and the unit can be returned to normal
operation. If the measured reading is greater than +4 cmH20,
the unit will sound an audible alarm and flash FAIL in the
LED display. The unit will not store this vallue, and if returned
to normal operation the unit will not apply an offset to the
pressure transducer signal. Causes for CAL. failure are
excessive transducer drift and/or patient port not open.

OPERATION
The flow control valve of the Avian Transport Ventilator provides
a constant mass flow for each breath, whether at ground level or in
an aircraft. The lower ambient pressure at altitudes above ground
level will cause the air to assume a larger volume. In other words,
the actual volume delivered by the ventilator at altitudes above
ground level will be greater than the tidal volume displayed on the
unit. The actual volume delivered by the Avian Transport
Ventilator can be calculated from the displayed tidal volume and
pressure altitudes as shown in the Volume vs. Pressure Altitude
Chart, Figure 4.1 on page 4-17.
The Volume vs. Pressure Altitude Chart, Figure 4.1 on page 4-17 can
be used to determine the tidal volume corrected for altitude. For
example, if the Avian Transport Ventilator tidal volume is set for a 600
ml breath, at 6000 feet pressure altitude (1), the actual tidal .volume is
determined by following the volume-pressure
line. In this case, the 600
ml setting will deliver tidal breaths of 702 ml (2). If a 500 ml (3) tidal
volume breath is desired at 8000 feet pressure altitude, then the
ventilator should be set to deliver 404 ml (4). Care must be taken in
determining the altitude in a pressurized aircraft since the cabin
altitude is usually significantly lower than the flight altitude. The
correction should be for the ambient altitude (pressure) where the
Avian Transport Ventilator is used.

7.1
OPERATION
INTRODUCTION
The Avian Transport Ventilator is an electronically controlled,
pneumatically actuated ventilator, which can support many of the
current modes of ventilation used for adult and pediatric patients. The
unit can operate from a wide range of DC and AC power sources, and
requires a gas source at 40 to 60 PSI. The electronic control system is
microprocessor based, and interfaces to the pneumatic ventilation
system through a series of solenoid valves and a pressure transducer.
The ventilator uses an exhalation valve and PEEP valve to complete
the ventilation system and can also be equipped with an external air/
oxygen blender to provide variable oxygen concentrations.
The following theory of operation described in Section 7.2 refers to
the Pneumatic Schematic, Figure 7.1 on page 7-7.
7.2
THEORY OF OPERATION
7.2.1
Gas Inlet and Pressure Conditioning
Air, oxygen, or blended gas from an external blender at 40 to 60 psig is
connected to the ventilator 02 DISS gas inlet port. The gas flows to the
PRESSURE REGULATOR where it is regulated clown to 30 psig. This
provides a stable pressure supply to the remaining flow control system
and insures that the delivery of tidal volumes and demand "flow is
unaffected by inlet pressure variations.
7.2.2
Main Flow Control
System
Gas then flows to the MAIN SOLENOID
VALVE, which controls
the
flow of gas for controlled and assist controlled breaths. At the start
of inspiration, the valve opens and gas flows through the FLOW
CONTROL VALVE which throttles the flow to the desired level. The
FLOW CONTROL POTENTIOMETER
is attached to the FLOW
CONTROL VALVE poppet and senses the valve position. This
information is used by the microprocessor
to calculate tidal volume.
Flow continues through the CHECK VALVE and out the inspiratory
leg of the patient circuit to the patient. At the end of inspiration, the
MAIN SOLENOID VALVE closes and stops the gas flow.

OVERVIEW OF SYSTEM OPERATION
VE
NTI LATO R
7.2.3
Exhalation
Valve and Control System
When inspiratory flow is present as described in the previous section,
a slight pressure drop exists across the CHECK VALVE. The upstream
elevated pressure is fed to the EXHALATION VALVE balloon
through the exhalation valve drive line that closes the EXHALATION
VALVE at the beginning of inspiration. The balloon ihas an
advantageous
area ratio with the seat that, coupled with the elevated
pressure, holds the EXHALATION VALVE closed during the
inspiratory phase. When inspiratory flow is stopped, the exhalation
balloon pilot pressure is bled off through the ORIFICE.
A removable spring loaded PEEP valve can be attached
port of the EXHALATION VALVE if PEEP is needed.
7.2.4
to the outlet
Demand System
When a spontaneous breath is triggered, the DEMAND SOLENOID
VALVE opens and gas flows through the valve and the DEMAND
ORIFICE where it is throttled to 60 LPM.
Gas then flows out through the inspiratory leg of the patient circuit to
the patient. Since the flow bypasses the CHECK VALVE, the
exhalation balloon drive pressure does not rise, leaving the exhalation
valve open. Excess flow not demanded by the patient flows out
of the EXHALATION VALVE. Demand flow stops when airway
pressure rises above the reference baseline.
7.2.5
Pressure Relief Function/Anti-suffocation
Valve
The pressure relief valve acts as a redundant safety feature or can be
used to deliver pressure limiting breaths by establishing the maximum
pressure in the patient circuit. If airway pressure exceeds the
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE setting, gas is vented to the room and
the pressure is held constant at this level. When the inspiratory phase
is complete or in case of a malfunction,
the ventilator flow is shut off.
In case of a ventilator failure or insufficient ventilatory support,
patient can breathe directly from room air through the ANTI SUFFOCATION VALVE.

7.2.6 Airway Pressure Transducer
Pressure at the patient airway is measured and converted to an

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONS
Power Supply Board
7.3.1.1
Overview
The power supply has four basic functional sections: Input
power conditioning, battery charger, charger bypass power,
and output voltage regulation. The schematic of this circuit
board is found in Section 9.0, Figure 9.5.1 on page 9-27.
7.3.1.2
Input Power Conditioning
External input power is applied through a bridge rectifier that
allows application of a DC voltage without regard to polarity.
AC voltage is also acceptable because a rectifier rectifies the
AC. A capacitor provides the necessary filtering. The input
can be DC voltage, (11 to 30 VDC), or an AC Voltage, (11 to 24
VAC, peak to peak). Fuse F700 protects against catastrophic
failures such as shorted diodes.
7.3.1.3
Battery Charger
The battery charger is a temperature compensated,
current
limited, dual-level float charger with a dead cell lockout. The
charge cycle normally takes less than 24 hours.
Input power from the external power source turns on the
charger. The battery is charged at the trickle current rate until
the battery terminal voltage exceeds the charge enable
threshold of 3.96 volts. This protects the system against high
charging current applied to a battery with a shorted cell, or a
battery that is installed backwards.

TRANSPORTOVERVIEW
OF SYSTEM
VE NTI LATOR
II
NOTE:
OPERATION
Batteries that do not meet the charge enable criteria (3.96 volts)
within 24 hours are probably defective and should be replaced.
This condition will be indicated by the front panel Battery Low/
Fail Indicator being lighted while external power is present (even if
the front panel Mode switch is in the OFF position).
Once the battery voltage exceeds the charge enable threshold,
the battery is placed in the bulk charge state. During the initial
stages of charging a discharged battery, the ,charger may
reduce the charge voltage to prevent the charge current from
exceeding the 500 mA charge current limit.
The charger will provide currents of zero to 500 mA as
required and maintain the regulated standby float voltage. If
the battery terminal voltage drops to 90% of the standby float
level, the charger will switch back to the bulk charge mode.
7.3.1.4
Charger Bypass Power
The Charger Bypass Power circuit provides power to the
ventilator electronics without passing that energy through the
battery charger control circuit. This helps improve accuracy of
the battery charging process, which helps maximize the
battery service life.
