Products has been a primary manufacturer of _ oxygen delivery devices for ‘field use in the United States and worldwide since 1979. LSP is also manufacturer of @ wide range of trauma, burn and rescue devices. THE AUTOVENT 2000/3000 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The LSP Automatic Ventilator (AutoVent 2000/3000} ime-cycled, constantflow, gospowered ventilators offer controlled ventilation a rates from 8 fo 15 breaths per minvle {BPM) in the AutoVent 2000 version, and 8 to 20 breaths per minute in the AutoVent 3000 version. The atlached Potioni Valve Assembly allows ¢ patient to draw supplemental gos flow {up to 36 LPM) with spontaneous effort. Designed for transport and ‘emergency medical use, the AutoVent 2000 delivers from 400 ml to 1200 ml volume. The AutoVent 3000 delivers from 200 to 1200 mi in volume. Specifications for the LSP AutoVent 2000/3000, including the Patient Valve Assembly, Control Module, ‘and Regulators intended for use with this device, are included in the Appendix ofthis manual. The Life Support Products AutoVent 2000/3000 represent a major breakthrough in pneumatic. Both AutoVents deliver Peak Prossuro up to 6045 om H,0 at flow rates from 12 to 36 liters per minute (LPM) They are small, compact units ideally suited for ‘emergency and transport situations a! femperature coxtremes from O°F fo 125°F. Operating power is obt standard 50 p: gas. They are simple to ‘assomble and operate, ‘and their funclions are easily understood. The Ventilators meet or exceed the American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines for resuscitation ‘An Audible lorm sounds whenever technology. They are inlended for he ventilatory assistance of patients following cardiac arrest, near drowning, trauma, other circumstances requiring venlotory assistance. ventilatory pressures ‘approach the preset pressure limit, alerting the operator. This alarm will continue to sound until the airway pressure drops or the system cycles to the expiratory phase. WARNING: Use only as directed. Improper usage or unauthorized, modification of this product may result in user or patient injury.‘HGURE 1, AUrovENT2000/3000 USE OF THE OPERATING MANUAL Explanation of Warnings/Cautions/ Notes ey “This operating manual forthe Life Support Products AutoVent 2000/3000 Automatic Ventlotors has been designed for ease of use in the paramedical and fold tronsport seling, lystrations are provided throughout this manual to provide the user with both a graphic and norrative description of the ventilators’ operating features. This operoting manuol contains three (3) types of statements with which the user should be aware, and are defined os followings: ‘WARNING: Potential injury to the patient or operator. These are always in boxes throughout] the text of the manual. CAUTION: Potential damage to the ventilator, breathing circuit, and/or other equipment may result. These are always in brackets throughout the text of the manual, **NOTE: An item of special interest concerning the use ‘and operation of the devico(s} or feature(s) being discussed is highlighted to note ease of use or understanding.

This alarm sounds whenever the pationt alirwoy pressure approaches the designed pressure li The Pressure Limit Alarm will gphtinue lo sound during the inspiratory phase until either the cirway pressure decreases cor the ventilator cycles off to begin the expiratory phase. In addition to functioning as a high pressure alarm the ‘olarm module also provides additional air entrainment during the Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation [MV] mode should the patien’s inspiratory flow cate exceed the flow delivery from the control module. The entrainment of ‘ambient air occurs through the blue rubber diaphragm located on the side of the alarm module, WARNING: If the fnaximum pressure reached, the pre-set tidal volume may not be delivored te the patient. Inspiratory time will remain constant, however, and an inspiratory hold will be maintained with no additional volume being delivered until the ventilator cycles to the expiratory phase. This warning also appears under Tidal Volume in the Performance iractoristics, WARNING: Should the blue rubber diaphragm. blow outward from the alarm module's air entrainment ports, remove the AutoVent immediately from service, and contact your LSP distributor.
