Students have the option of choosing Layouts for Seimens 300C and the Evita version 5 mechanical Ventilators. These are currently the most commonly Used ventilators in practice.

Description of screen elements pH PCO 2 PO 2 HCO 3 SaO 2 Blood Gas Ventilator Settings Mode Set RR Set TV FiO 2 Patient Responses RRTV E MV E Help Activate Changes Timer This Section of the screen has The results of a blood gas. The student will have to interpret the blood gas before making any changes on the mechanical ventilation settings

RR Set TV pH PCO 2 PO 2 HCO 3 SaO 2 Blood Gas Ventilator Settings Mode FiO 2 Patient Responses RRTV E MV E Help Activate Changes Timer This section has the changes the student Can make to the mechanical ventilator Settings. They are a simulation of the Buttons on a Puritan-Bennett 840A. PEEP 5

Set TV pH PCO 2 PO 2 HCO 3 SaO 2 Blood Gas Ventilator Settings Mode Set TV FiO 2 Patient Responses RRTV E MV E Help Activate Changes Timer Patients do respond to mechanical ventilation. In this box is how the patient is responding. For instance if the student sets the respiratory Rate at 10, it is conceivable the patient could Breathe above this set rate. The student will have to take into consideration The patient’s efforts to breathe when making Changes. PEEP 5

Most health care facilities will check A blood gas result 20 minutes after a Ventilator change. For this simulation 1sec = 1 minute. The student will slowly see the blood gas Change as time ticks down. This way they will know they are on the Right track or not. PEEP 5
